9.Take it out of the refrigerator and turn the knob clockwise to the CLOSE position to avoid accidental opening (see figure A). The absence of air inside the container is indicated by the valve at the bottom (see figure D).

10.To open the container, turn the knob anticlockwise to the OPEN position (see figure A): this will allow air to enter the container and make it easy to open. The valve will move upwards as air enters the container (see figure E).

• The maximum fill level marked on the container must

be respected when storing liquids of any kind.

Vacuuming actual liquid from the container may damage

the Ever Fresh pump.

• Repeated opening of the vacuumed containers may

disturb the storage conditions of the food inside.

• Before using the system, make sure there is no visible

damage on any part of the container.

• The container valve has a built-in security system. If,

after you have created a vacuum, the valve moves

upward within three days, check the lid has been put on

the container properly and/or that the container is intact.

Check the storage status of the food before repeating

the vacuum storage operation. See Activating and

deactivating Ever Fresh.

• The containers were designed to come into direct

contact with food.

!The lid of the container is

provided with a circular valve. When the valve is low (figure D) there is no air inside the container. When the valve is high (figure E) air is present inside the container.

!If, after you have created a vacuum (instructions

1-9), the valve moves upward (see figure E) within three days, check the lid has been put on the container properly and/or that the container is intact. Check the storage status of the food before repeating the vacuum storage operation.

!The Ever Fresh function is equipped with a safety device that switches off the pump in case of malfunction (if the container is missing or incorrectly positioned, for example). If the safety device is activated, the RESET ALARM button must be pressed twice to restore normal operation.

• Do not use the containers for any type of cooking (in

the microwave or oven, on an electric plate, over a

flame, etc.).

• Do not put the containers in the freezer.

• Do not clean the lids in a dishwasher.

Vacuum storage

Pre-packed foods stored using the vacuum system must still be consumed before the use-by date.

Repeatedly storing these vacuum-packed foods does not change their natural tendency to spoil.

Do not store defrosted foods using the vacuum system unless they have been cooked already.

Stored food should be prepared while fresh (chopped, sliced, peeled, cooked) and should be in perfect condition.

Perishable foods stored using the vacuum system must still be stored inside the refrigerator.

Cooked foods must be left to cool before being stored using the vacuum system.
