accessory port on the Vac 1050 before you vacuum package in
FoodSaver Bags.

store food in your refrigerator and pantry. The Square Canister is

FoodSaver Canisters cannot be stored in the freezer. The Bulk
Storage and Square Canister bases can be used in the microwave
to reheat foods and put in the dishwasher for cleaning. Do not
put the lids in the microwave or dishwasher.
