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!

INITIAL TESTING OF THE BAG SEAL

1.ALWAYS allow the sealing bar to cool for approximately 20 seconds between bags. Leave the Vacuum Lid OPEN between uses, this allows the Heating Element to cool more quickly between bags.

2.Place one end of the bag onto the Sealing Bar, leaving about 2” (5 cm) of the empty part of the bag beyond the inside edge of the Sealing Bar.

3.Be sure not to cover the Vacuum Port with the bag. Covering the Vacuum Port prevents the proper vacuuming of air from the bag.

4.Close the Vacuum Lid while holding the bag in place.

5.If the Manual Light is not illuminated, press the Mode Button until the Manual Light is illuminated to select the Manual Mode.

6.Press the Start Button engaging the Vacuum Pump (the Vacuum Pump must be on for the Seal Bar to heat up).

7.You may need to apply slight pressure to the Handle at the beginning of the countdown process in order to create a proper seal.

8.Press the Manual Seal Button immediately after the Vacuum Pump starts. (Press down on the Vacuum Lid to contact the Sealing Bar.)

9.After the Seal Window counts down to zero (0) the unit will automatically release the vacuum and enable the Vacuum Lid to open.

10.Remove the bag and inspect the seal. The seal should appear smooth and consistent all the way across the bag. The seal SHOULD NOT melt through the bag at any point. Be sure there are no creases or wrinkles that may allow air to leak into the bag. A properly sealed bag will not pull apart, the bag must be cut open.

11.0Do not form side seals on the bags, the sides are already sealed.

12.0If the seal is good, proceed with vacuum packaging. Otherwise:

.If the seal is melted through the bag trim off the bad seal with scissors and adjust the Seal Time Down (-)in one second increments and try the test process again.

.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.

NOTE: The Vacuum Sealer is ONLY intended to be used with VACUUM BAGS. For best results, only use the recommended vacuum bags. DO NOT USE HOUSEHOLD BAGS! Any other uses of the Vacuum Sealer, other than the uses described in this booklet, could potentially damage the appliance and void the warranty!
