Q: The bag seal pulls apart.
1.If the seal has not fully welded the bag closed, trim off the bad seal with scissors and adjust the Seal Time Up (+) in one second increments and try the test process again.
2.The Vacuum Sealer is only intended to be used with vacuum sealing bags. For best results, Cabela’s Vacuum Bags should be used. DO NOT USE HOUSEHOLD BAGS with the Vacuum Sealer.
3.The seal of the bag may be incomplete. If the seal has a crease in it, or if a liquid or powder has been trapped between the layers of the bag, the layers may not have been welded together properly. Cut the seal off and wipe the inside of the bag clean. Then, try to vacuum seal the package again. When sealing a moist or powdery food, insert a paper towel into the bag above the food before vacuum packaging. The paper towel will prevent the food from interfering with the seal. See the “Vacuum Packaging Guidelines” in this booklet for helpful tips.
4.If none of the above steps remedy the situation, contact Customer Service.
WARNING! Before cleaning, assembling or disassembling the Vacuum Sealer, make sure the Vacuum Sealer is OFF and the PLUG IS REMOVED FROM THE OUTLET/POWER SOURCE!
