Utilizzo di buste sottovuoto

1) Effettuate la taratura preliminare del sensore vuoto: alla prima messa in funzione è necessario tarare il sensore di depressione in funzione della pressione atmosferica (dipendente dall’altitudine del luogo), accendendo la macchina e premendo contemporaneamente il tasto “VAC”. Chiudete il coperchio. L’apparecchio inizierà la taratura che terminerà automaticamente dopo circa due minuti con il rientro dell’aria nella camera a vuoto. La procedura di taratura preliminare si ripete solo nel caso in cui la macchina venga spostata in un luogo con altitudine differente.
2) Scegliete la busta sottovuoto in funzione della modalità d'utilizzo (conservazione o cottura), adatta alle dimensioni del prodotto (il prodotto non deve occupare più di 2/3 del volume utile della busta).
3) Aprite il coperchio ed assicuratevi che la camera a vuoto ed il prodotto da confezionare siano asciutti. Nell'inserimento del cibo all'interno della busta, fate attenzione a non sporcarne o bagnarne la parte interna in prossimità dell'apertura, al fine di non compromettere l'efficacia della sigillatura.
4) Posizionate i ripiani in plastica all’interno della vasca in funzione della dimensione del prodotto; l’inserimento del numero massimo di ripiani in relazione alla dimensione della busta consente un risparmio di tempo del ciclo di confezionamento, grazie alla riduzione del volume d’aria da aspirare.

Using the vacuum sealed bags

1) Preliminary calibration of the vacuum sensor: prior to first use of the appliance, the pressure sensor must be calibrated to the correct settings in relation to atmospheric pressure (depending on the altitude of the location) by turning on the appliance and simultaneously pressing the "VAC" button. Close the cover. The appliance will start calibrating and this will stop automatically after about two minutes when air refills the vacuum chamber. This preliminary calibration only needs to be carried out again if the appliance is moved to a location with a different altitude.
2) Choose the vacuum bag best suited to the intended use (preserve preparation or cooking) and suited to the product size (the product should not take up more than 2/3rds of the volume of the bag).
3) Open the cover and ensure that the vacuum chamber and the product are both dry. When placing the food into the bag, be careful not to dirty or wet the inside of the bag near the opening, so as not to compromise the sealing function.
4) Place the plastic shelves inside the container based on product size; inserting the maximum number of shelves relative to the size of the bag will save time during the preparation cycle, by reducing the amount of air needed to be drawn in.

I also hold a MA in Strategic Human Resource Management from Coventry University.
