Troubleshooting

If the FoodSaver® Vacuum Packaging Canister will not vacuum:

1.Make sure the rubber gasket rim on the lid is free from food materials.

2.Examine the rim of the canister for any cracks or scratches. Any gaps can prevent the canisters from vacuuming properly.

3.Make sure the canister is not too full for vacuum packaging. Always leave at least one inch (1”) between the contents and the lid.

4.Make sure the Accessory Hose is securely inserted into the Accessory Port on the appliance and in the port on the canister lid.
