Troubleshooting

Your FoodSaver vacuum packaging system also protects non-food items from oxidation, corrosion and moisture. Just follow the directions for vacuum packaging using the FoodSaver Bags or accessories.

◗Vacuum package your silver. Without exposure to air, the silver will not tarnish. Be sure to cover fork tines in something cushioning, like a paper towel, so they won’t puncture the bag.

◗Vacuum package your children’s clay so that it won’t dry out and get cracked.

◗Camping and hiking gear stays dry and compact. Vacuum pack- aging your clothes and equipment will help save space in your pack. Vacuum package matches, maps and anything you want to stay dry.

◗For picnics, fill a FoodSaver Bag with ice and seal. When it melts, you’ll have fresh water for drink- ing or you can put it back in the freezer as a reusable ice pack.

◗Vacuum package your food and equipment for a boating or sailing outing. Food will stay dry in the cooler, batteries and film won’t get damaged by water and you’ll appre- ciate having a dry change of clothes.

◗FoodSaver Bags are also great for storing extra keys or any spare parts you need for your boat. They will be dry and in one place.

◗Vacuum package first aid kits and emergency kits for your house, your boat and your car. Items will all be in one package and will stay dry and without dirt and mold. Include flares, batteries, flashlight, candles and matches.

◗Vacuum package extra spark plugs and precision tools that always seem to get lost. Seal nuts, bolts and screws by size in separate bags.
