Troubleshooting

Nothing Happens When the On Button Is Pressed:

1Make sure the power cord is firmly plugged into the electrical outlet.

2Make sure the power cord is not damaged in any way.

3Make sure the electrical outlet is operative by plugging in another appliance.

4Wait 20 minutes to allow the appliance to cool off, and then try using it again. The appliance will shut off automatically if it becomes too hot. To keep the appliance from becoming too hot:

Air Is Not Removed From the Bag:

1Make sure the open end of the bag is resting entirely inside the Vacuum Channel. Make sure you are not putting the edge of the bag beyond the Vacuum Channel.

2Check the bag for leaks. Seal the bag with some air in it. Submerge it in water and apply pressure. Bubbles indicate a leak. If the bag has a leak, you need to use a new bag.

3If using a custom-sized FoodSaver Bag, check the seal of the bag. There may be a wrinkle in the bag along the seal, which causes leakage and prevents air from being removed. Cut the bag and reseal the edge.

4Do not attempt to make your own side seams for a FoodSaver Bag. They are manufactured with special side seams, which are sealed all the way to the outer edge. Making your own side seams may leave air pockets, which will cause leakage and prevent air from being completely removed.
