Preparation; Fill In Food And Seal With Vacuum - Westfalia 89 65 12 Original Instructions Manual

 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.

After sealing store perishable food in the refrigerator or in the
freezer. Do not leave such food at room temperature.
