How do I preserve and bottle food using the V-ZUG COMBAIR V4000 45 oven?
You can preserve and bottle food in your V-ZUG COMBAIR V4000 45 oven using special preserving jars. Follow these steps for safe and effective bottling:
Preparation:
• Only use undamaged jars with glass lids, suitable rubber seals, and sealing clips that sit correctly. Do not use jars with screw or bayonet tops, as the pressure cannot be reduced.
• You can place up to 5 jars with a maximum volume of 1 litre each inside the cooking space. Always use same-size jars.
Procedure:
1. Put the baking tray at level 2.
2. Fill the jars evenly with the food to be preserved (at ambient temperature) and add liquid (and any sugar, salt, or vinegar) as required.
3. Close the jars according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
4. Place the jars on the Baking tray as shown in the illustration in your manual. The jars should not touch one another.
5. Select the preserving application at level 2 and start. The oven will heat until bubbles start to rise quickly to the surface of the liquid in the jars. This process takes about 60 to 90 minutes for food at ambient temperature.
6. Keep the appliance door closed during the entire preserving process.
7. When the set duration is up, switch off the appliance.
8. Hold the function button depressed.
9. Leave the jars standing in the cooking space for 40 minutes.
10. Leave the appliance door open in the airing position.
11. Leave the jars in the cooking space to cool down completely.
12. Remove the jars. Check that the jars are sealed tight.
