[. . . ] This method of storing food does not change any of the characteristics of the food. Use only the containers that come with the product to store food in the Ever Fresh system. Ever Fresh system The Ever Fresh system is activated and deactivated by means of a button on the refrigerator shelf, an external button on the display and a knob on the cover of each container. There is a pump in the centre of the Ever Fresh shelf which sucks the air out of the containers. Make sure that the food inside leaves room for the container to be closed properly. A VACUUM VUOTO GB The absence of air inside the containers ensures that food is preserved for longer periods of time while maintaining its original appearance, taste and nutritional characteristics. Close the handles on either side of the container and turn the knob on the lid of the container all the way to the CLOSE position. Then turn the knob anticlockwise to the VACUUM position (see figure A). Press the button on the shelf and place the container in the central position (see figure B). Lock the container into position by pulling the button on the shelf (see figure C). Activate the Ever Fresh function by pressing the relevant button on the external display (the Ever Fresh icon will light up). A slight noise can be heard while the Ever Fresh system is in operation.

The length of time food lasts for will, however, depend on the initial freshness of the products, preparation and storage methods, and correct use of the Ever Fresh function. Wait for the signal that the operation has finished (the Ever Fresh icon will switch off). Unlock the container from its position by pressing the button on the shelf. 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). 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). Using Ever Fresh to its full potential The following information is a guide on how to get the best from the Ever Fresh system and the food it stores. Ever Fresh containers • The maximum fill level marked on the container must be respected when storing liquids of any kind. [. . . ] The freezer will maintain a temperature of around 0°C so that the food will not refreeze, allowing you to eat it within 24 hours or to refreeze it after it has been cooked. • The temperature of the freezer is dangerously high: the food inside must not be eaten. The freezer will return to a temperature of -18°C. To switch off the buzzer, press the RESET ALARM button. [. . . ]
