How to Make a Custom-Made Bag with FoodSaver Rolls

When using FoodSaver Rolls you first need to make a bag. If you are using ready-made FoodSaver Bags, go to page 10.

1Place the appliance on a flat, dry surface and plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet.

2Set the Sealing Time Adjustment Switch to “2.”

3Lay the item(s) you want to vacuum package near the FoodSaver Roll so you can see where to cut the bag material. IMPORTANT:

Leave at least 3 extra inches at one end of the bag. Leave more (one inch per reseal) if you plan to reuse the bag.

4Cut the FoodSaver Roll to the desired length, making sure you cut straight. The marks on the side of the roll are at 3 inch intervals and will assist you in cutting straight.

5Open the lid of the appliance.

6Place one end of the bag on the Sealing Strip. Do not let the bag slip into the Vacuum Channel.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the end of the bag does not go over the black foam rubber ring, or into the Vacuum Channel.

7Close the lid.

8Press on the lid with the palms of your hands then release. The solid green light will turn on.

9When the green light goes off, the 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.
