A. Vacuuming of Solis containers with twist-knob on
the lid (Fig. 10)
–
Wash the container in water and clean the lid with a
damp cloth; dry all completely.
–
Place the food into the container and leave at least
3 cm distance between the food and the top edge of
the container (see Fig. 11). Clean the upper edge of
the container again, along with the underside of the
lid with the seal of the container lid, then place the
GB
container lid on the container. Turn the control dial on
the lid to the "SEAL" position (see Fig. 10).
–
Take the air extraction hose included with the appli-
ance resp. the Solis container set. Connect one end of
the hose to the connection port (2) on the appliance
and the other end to the opening by the knob on
the container lid (see Fig. 12+13).
–
Adjust the extraction speed to the foods in the con-
tainer with the Vacuum (I) button: Normal for robust
foods, Gentle for pressure sensitive foods. The corre-
sponding control light illuminates.
–
Touch the Canister (H) button (see Fig. 13), the vac-
uuming process starts. To make sure that no air can
enter between the container and the lid, press down
on the lid of the container with your hand during
vacuuming.
You can follow the progress with the
progress indicator (D). Wait for the button surrounds
and the progress indicator (D) to go out and the signal
to sound, then the process is completed.
–
Carefully pull out the air extraction hose from the
container lid.
–
To open the lid of the container, turn the control
dial to the "OPEN" position. You will hear a slight
hissing sound as the air enters the container again.
This hiss guarantees that there was an air vacuum in
the container.

on the lid (Fig. 14)
The multi-functional Solis containers are ideal for storing
dry foods, powdered foods, and fresh, dry or pureed fruit
and vegetables. Due to its transparent design, the con-
tents can be easily seen and the practical date-indicator
gives an indication of the shelf-life of the contents.
