Preserve Food With Vacuum - CASO DESIGN VC150 Original Bedienungsanleitung

16.4 Preserve food with vacuum:

Place the unit on a dry place. Make sure the working area in front of the unit is free of
obstacles and wide enough to accommodate the food bags.
1. Put the food that you want to preserve inside the bag.
2. Clean and straighten the open end of the bag, make sure that there are no wrinkles or
ripples on the panels of the open ends.
3. Make sure that both panels of the bag are located within the vacuum chamber. (see
Step1)
4. Close the cover and then press down heavily on both sides by using two hands until
two click sounds heard (see Step 2).
5. Press the "Vakuum & Schweißen"-Button (E) and the corresponding LED control light
starts flashing, then the bag will be automatically vacuumed and sealed.
6. After that press the two "Cover Lock"-buttons and the process is completed (see
Step3).
7. Check the appearance of the sealed bag; it should have a stripe across the seal and no
wrinkles otherwise the seal may not be complete.
8. If you need to interrupt the vacuum operation (e.g. the bag is incorrectly positioned) first
press the "Stop" button (C) and then the "Cover-Unlock"-buttons.
► Do not put too much food inside the bag; leave enough empty length in the open end
of the bag so that the bag can be placed in the vacuuming plate more positively.
► Do not wet the open end of the bag. Wet bags may be difficult to seal tightly.
► Clean and straighten the open end of the bag before sealing the bag. Make sure
nothing is leaving on the open area of the bag. Foreign objects or creased bags may
cause difficulty to seal tightly.
► Do not leave too much air inside the bag. Press the bag to allow extra air to escape
from the bag before vacuuming it. Too much air inside the bag increases the vacuum
pump loading and may cause that the motor works insufficient to draw away all the air
out of the bag.
► If the foods you're sealing have sharp edges, such as bones, spaghetti or shellfish,
pack the edges with kitchen paper to avoid tearing the bag
► Suggest to vacuum seal one bag within 1 minute to let the appliance cool down
enough.
► In order to vacuum seal liquid-based foods, such as soups, casseroles or stew, freeze
them first in a baking pan or tempered dish, vacuum seal them, label and stack them
in your freezer as soon as they are in frozen solid.
► Blanch the vegetables by cooking briefly in boiling water or microwave oven, cool them
down , then vacuum seal them in convenient portions.
► To vacuum seal the foods not frozen, two extra inches are required for bag length to
allow for expansion while freezing. Place the meat or fish on a paper towel and
vacuum seal with the paper towel in the bag, this way will help to absorb moisture from
the foods.
