13.3 Bags and rolls
Please only use specified bags and rolls for vacuuming.
The material of these special foils is different from wrapping film.
All vacuum rolls and bags delivered by caso-germany are appropriate for cooking under
vacuum (sous vide).
Furthermore the vacuum rolls and bags can be used for defrosting and heating in the
microwave at up to 70° C.
Please make sure when vacuum rolls and bags of other producers are used, whether
they are also microwaveable and suitable for cooking under vacuum.
13.4 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 open end 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”-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
presses the “Stop” pushbutton (C) and then the “Cover-Unlock”-buttons.
Please note
► 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.
