HOW TO USE THE BAG CUTTER
In the back of the appliance is the bag cutter. This accessory easily lets you get an even and
neat cut. Frayed, lopsided, or crooked edges could prevent the generation of a vacuum and
interfere with the sealing process.
1. Open the cutter bar. To do this, push the black handles at both sides of the cutter
bar to the rear of the appliance.
2. Insert the bag between cutter bar and the base of the appliance. Then press the
cutter bar in place again, until it clicks shut.
3. Push the slider of the cutting bar to the opposite end of the cutter bar.
4. Pull the bag out from under the cutter bar.
HOW TO MAKE CUSTOM SIZED BAGS
1. Pull enough bag material to hold the item being vacuum packaged, plus 50mm. With
the cutter, cut the desired bag length from bag roll. Make sure to cut it in a straight
line. Plug in the power cord.
2. Open lid. Place one end of cut bag onto sealing strip, don’t worry if you accidentally
place any material onto the gasket area.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Nothing happens when I press the ’’VACUUM & SEAL’’ button:
Make sure the power cord is correctly plugged into the electrical outlet.
• Make sure the power cord is not damaged in any way.
• Make sure the electrical outlet is operative by plugging in another appliance. If it’s
not, please check the circuit breakers or fuses in your home.
• Make sure the bag is positioned correctly down in the vacuum chamber.
• Press down on both sides of the lid and make sure it is locked in place.
• Wait for 25 minutes to allow appliance to cool off, and then try using again.

Air is not vacuumed from the bag:
• Check that there are no gaps, folds, wrinkles, or holes in the pre-sealed bags.
• Check for loose, worn, or cracked upper and lower sealing gaskets.
• Foods with high liquid contents may prevent the bag from sealing properly.
Cut the bag open and wipe the top inside of bag and reseal.
• Check to see if the bag is properly inserted into the vacuum chamber.
• Make sure you’ve placed the bag correctly. When making a bag from a roll,
make sure the end of the cut piece is on the sealing strip.
Bag melts:
• The sealing strip may have been too hot during the sealing process. Allow the unit to
cool for 20 seconds between uses. If the bag continues to melt, allow the unit to cool
with the lid in the upright position for 25 minutes before using.
Air has seeped back into the vacuumed bag:
• Check the seal of the bag. There may be a hole or wrinkle that is allowing air to
re-enter the bag. Carefully cut the bag open and re-seal it, or use a new bag.
• Make sure there is no moisture or liquid from the food present within the bag seal.
You may need to cut open the bag and re-seal it, or use a new bag.
Partially freeze foods with excess liquids prior to vacuum sealing.
• Make sure there are no food items with sharp edges that may have punctured the
bag.Ifyoundapuncturehole,sealtheiteminanewbag.

properly. Cut the bag open and wipe the top inside of bag and reseal.
Bag will not seal:
• Check that there aren’t any gaps, folds, wrinkles, or holes in pre-sealed edges.
• Moisture of foods with high liquid content will prevent the bag from sealing
properly. Cut bag open and wipe the top inside of bag and reseal.
• Make sure you’ve placed the bag correctly. When making a bag from a roll,
make sure the end of the cut piece is on the sealing strip.
