7When all the air has been removed the green light will turn off. The vacuum and sealing process is complete. Open the lid and remove the bag.

NOTE: Let the appliance cool down for at least 20 seconds before using it again.

IMPORTANT: You will need to pre-freeze foods that have excess liquid or moisture before vacuum packaging in FoodSaver Bags because the liquid can be drawn up into the vacuum pump.

Do not allow the Vacuum Channel to become filled with liquid. This may allow liquid to get sucked into the motor and permanently damage the appliance.

Wipe out any excess liquid from the Vacuum Channel after each time you vacuum package.
