Instructions for use
Important: Let themachine rest for 40 seconds between every vacuum packing
operation to prevent it from overheating.
Things to consider when vacuum packing
• Only use bags that are no wider than 30 cm and which are designed to be used
with avacuum sealing machine.
• Bear in mind that vacuum packing food is not thesame as preservingit. Vacuum
packing does not prevent food from deteriorating but it can help it last longer.
• Vacuum packing is not asubstitute for refrigerating or freezingfood. Foodsthat
need to be refrigerated should still be kept in afridge or freezer after they have
been vacuum packed.
• Bear in mind that crispy foods such as biscuits and crackers can crumble or
become deformed when they are vacuum packed. Whenvacuum packing crispy
foods, keep aneye on thebag and stop theprocess by pressing the [STOP]
button if necessary. Crispy foods can stored in bags that are just sealed without
avacuum.
• For best results, fruit and vegetables should be peeled before they are vacuum packed.
• When vacuum packing moist foods such as meat, apiece of kitchen paper can
be placed between thefood and theopening of thebag. Leaveagap between
themeat and thepaper and between thepaper and theseal. Theremust be no
paper in theopening where thebag is to be sealed.
• When vacuum packing grains or powders, acoffee filter can be placed between
thecontents of thebag and theopening. Takecare to ensure that thefilter is not
within thearea that will be pressed by thesealingbar.
• Do not completely fill thevacuum bag, leave enough room to be able to lay
theopening flat over thesealingbar.
• Stretch thebag to remove anyfolds.
• Make sure that theopening of thebag is completely dry before sealingit.
• Do not fill thebag with sharp or pointed objects such as bones or hard shells that
might puncture thebag.
• It is agood idea to freeze liquid foodstuffs before vacuum packingthem. Otherwise
there is arisk of liquid being sucked into thevacuum pump and damagingit.
Vacuum bags
• It is possible to buy bags on aroll that can be cut to thedesiredsize. Thesebags
need to be sealed at one end before they are filled. Referto theSealing theend of
thebag section.
• Ready made vacuum bags, already sealed at one end can also be purchased.

Sealing theend of thebag
1. Cut alength of plastic vacuum bag roll long enough to contain thefood that you
wish topack. Remember to leave alittle extra for theseal.
2. Plug thevacuum sealer into awall socket (theblue LED indicator (9) will come on).
3. Open thelid and slide theplastic under thebag clip (3).
4. Feed theend of plastic into thevacuum sealer and lay it over thesealing bar(2).
Makesure that theopening of thebag does not reach as far as thevacuum chamber.
Stretch thebag to remove anyfolds.
5. Press [VAC Seal/Seal ], thered LED indicator will come on, now close thelid.
6. Press down thelid and hold it closed until theLED indicator changes toblue.
Theend of thebag is now sealed.
7. Press therelease button (1) and open thelid.
8. Make sure that theseal is airtight.
