How to Vacuum Package Using Ready-Made and Custom-Made FoodSaver Bags

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

2Set the Sealing Adjustment Switch to “Vacuum & Seal.”

3Open the lid of the appliance.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the open end of the bag is resting entirely inside the Vacuum Channel.

4Place items to be vacuum packaged inside the bag. Place the open end of the bag down into the Vacuum Channel.

5Close the lid.

6With the palms of your hands, press down on the ridges on the lid and hold. The green light and the motor will turn on indicating the vacuum has begun.

7While continuously holding down the lid, the appliance will vacuum and seal automatically.

8When all the air has been removed, and the bag has been sealed, the green light and the motor will turn off. The vacuum and sealing process is complete. Remove hands, open the lid and remove the bag.

NOTE: Let the appliance cool down for at least 20 seconds before using it again.

IMPORTANT: You will need to pre-freeze foods that have excess liquid or moisture before vacuum packaging in FoodSaver Bags because the liquid can be drawn up into the Vacuum Pump.

Do not allow the Vacuum Channel to become filled with liquid. This may allow liquid to get sucked into the motor and permanently damage the appliance.

Wipe out any excess liquid from the Vacuum Channel after each time you vacuum package.

Make sure the roll is rewound completely into the roll storage compartment before vacuum packaging.
