General Hints On The Used Food; Preparing The Polybags - Westfalia 854743 Bedienungsanleitung

General Hints on the used Food

 Preferably use fresh fruit or vegetables. First, wash fruit/vegetables
thoroughly and cut out blemishes.
 Fruit and raw vegetables should be peeled before vacuuming. This
will extend their shelf lives.
 Do not re-freeze food that has been thawed before.
 Allow frozen food to thaw in the refrigerator and do not leave it at
room temperature.
 If you intent to freeze food after sealing, leave enough space in the
bag so the food can expand while freezing.
 Please note that airtight sealed nuts, chips and cerealies will last
longer if they are stored in a dark and cool place.
 Before vacuum-sealing, remove the air inside the bag by straighten-
ing the bag as far as possible, so the suction pump will not work
needlessly for long time.
 Do not vacuum-seal spiky or sharp-edged objects or foods with
protruding bones or spikes or sharp edges. If needed, use extra
strong bags for those foods.

Preparing the Polybags

1. Keep the polybags, your hands and kitchen utensils as well as the
food clean at all times.
2. Place the polybag vacuum sealer on a solid and level surface and
connect it to a suitable power socket.
3. Unlock the cutting rail (9) from the unit and fold it up. Slide the
cutting blade (10) all the way to one end of the rail and slide the
polybag material under the cutting rail. Fold down the cutting rail and
snap it in place by pressing down tightly on both ends. Draw the
cutting blade across the rail to cut off the desired length of material.
4. Set the ON/OFF switch to on and open the sealing lid by pressing
both unlocking buttons simultaneously
