How to Use the Manual Seal Button

Use the Manual Seal Button when you want to seal a FoodSaver Bag before a complete vacuum has been created. This feature is useful when vacuum packaging fragile items such as bread, baked goods and berries so they don’t get crushed.

1Open the lid.

2Place the items to be vacuum packaged into the bag.

3Place the open end of the bag down into the Vacuum Channel.

4Close the lid.

5Press and release the On button. The appliance will automatically begin the vacuum process.

6To stop the process before all of the air is removed, press and

release the Manual Seal Button. The vacuum will stop within 3 seconds and the sealing process will begin.

7When finished vacuuming and sealing, the red sealing light will blink, indicating the appliance is reprogramming itself. The lid will open slightly. Do not lift the lid until the red sealing light stops blinking and the lid has reset to the ready position.

8Open the lid and remove the bag.

NOTE: It takes approximately 2 to 3 seconds to stop the vacuum process and seal the bag. If you are using a small bag or pack- aging a fragile item, we recommend that you press down on the Manual Seal Button immediately after releasing the On button.
