Vacuum Pump Cooling
• It may be necessary to allow
the vacuum pump to cool down
for a brief period of time (one
hour). The reason for the pump
cooling period is that the pump
and oil are hot. If the pump is
immediately turned on, it will
spray oil out of the exhaust.
Additional Final Dry
• After the pump cool down period
you can now enter the additional
“Final Dry” period.
Defrost
• By pushing “Defrost” the freeze
dryer will prompt you to remove
the food and the black insulator
door pad and close the door.
Please Close Drain Valve
• If “More Dry Time” is selected,
you will be prompted to “Please
close drain valve”.
