3. Prepare Items for Storage: Ensure items like herbs are thoroughly dried to remove excess surface and internal moisture before placing them in the jar. This prevents mold or bacterial growth. Target moisture for herbs should be approximately 10-12% for optimal preservation.

Operating Instructions

• Press and hold any button on the lid for 3 seconds to wake up the screen and power on the device.
• The display will show temperature, humidity, battery level, and storage duration.

2. Vacuum Sealing:

1. Place your items into the jar, ensuring there is roughly 25% air space remaining to allow for proper air circulation and vacuum formation.
2. Place the lid securely on the jar.
3. Tap the Lock icon on the lid to initiate the automatic vacuum sealing process. The built-in smart vacuum system will monitor internal air pressure and maintain a low-oxygen environment.
