Tips on Sealing a Bag

Make sure you've locked the appliance lid. When making a bag from a roll, place bag material on Sealing Strip, close lid and ensure latch is locked.

Prevent moisture or liquid from being pulled into the Vacuum Channel or trapped in the seal. Either pre-freeze moist food such as raw meat for 1-2 hours before vacuum packaging, or place a folded paper towel between food and end of bag to absorb excess liquids.

Just be sure to leave at least 2.5cm between food and end of bag so that bag seals properly with paper towel inside.

Make sure you give appliance time to cool down. Wait at least 20 seconds between seals. Under very heavy usage, appliance will not operate to prevent overheating. If it does, wait 20 minutes to allow appliance to

cool off.

Tips on Removing Air from a Bag

Make sure you've locked the appliance lid. When vacuuming and sealing a bag or canister, ensure latch is locked.

Check for wrinkles in the bag along the Sealing Strip. Wrinkles in seal may cause leakage and allow air to come back into bag. Check for wrinkles in bag along Sealing Strip before closing lid and vacuum packaging. If you find wrinkles after sealing bag, simply cut bag open and vacuum package again.

If motor runs for more than 30 seconds without stopping, consider the following: You may need to adjust bag and try again. If you are making the initial seal on a piece of bag material with two open ends, make sure bag is placed on Sealing Strip. If you are vacuum packaging with a bag, make sure open end is placed over the Vacuum Channel and make sure Accessory Hose is not attached.
