How To Use The Sealing Adjustment Switch

This 5-Position Sealing Adjustment Switch lets you control the length of the sealing process. Seal times increase according to the numbered dial, with “1” being the shortest seal time and “3” being the longest seal time. The switch also allows you to change the process in order to vacuum package in FoodSaver accessories.

•Set the Sealing Adjustment Switch to “1” when vacuum packaging consecutively in FoodSaver Bags to avoid over heating the Sealing Strip.

•Set the Sealing Adjustment Switch to “2” for standard vacuum packaging in FoodSaver Bags.

•Set the Sealing Adjustment Switch to “3” for vacuum packaging foods with excess moisture and juices (example: meats, chicken or fish).

•Set the Sealing Adjustment Switch to “Accessory” when vacuum packaging in FoodSaver accessories.

•Set the Sealing Adjustment Switch to “Cut Only” when creating a FoodSaver Bag from a FoodSaver Roll.

How to Use the Instant Seal Button

Use the Instant 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.

1Set the Sealing Adjustment Switch to “1,” “2” or “3” depending on the contents of the bag. (See page 12 for instructions.)

2Open the lid of the appliance.

3Place the items to be vacuum packaged into the bag.

4Place the open end of the bag down into the Vacuum Channel.

5Close the lid.

6Place your hands on the lid where it says “PRESS HERE.” Press down on the lid, then release. The motor and the green light will turn on as the vacuum process begins.

7To stop the process before all the air is removed, press and release the Instant Seal Button. The vacuum will stop within 3 seconds and the sealing process will begin.

8The green light will blink as the bag is being sealed. When the light and the motor turn off, the vacuum process is complete.

9Open 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 packaging a fragile item, we recommend that you press down on the Instant Seal Button immediately after releasing the lid.
