7. User manual
MAIN GUIDE LINES FOR VACUUM PACKING
• FOOD PRESERVATION AND SAFETY:
IMPORTANT: vacuum packaging does NOT replace
refrigeration or freezing. Eventual perishable food
which require refrigeration have to be refrigerated
or frozen after vacuum packing.
To obtain better result in making product’ shelf-life
longer, it is important to pack fresh food. Once food
started to perish, vacuum packing can only slow
down the process.
Vacuum packing can’t avoid mould to grow. Oth-
er diseases caused by micro-organisms can still
grow in low oxygen environment and could need
additional means to be eliminated.
IMPORTANT: always defrost food in the fridge or in
the micro-wave, do not defrost perishable food at
room temperature.
• TIPS FOR MEAT OR FISH VACUUM PACKING:
Try to pre-freeze meat and fish per 1-2 hours be-
fore vacuum packing. This tip gives a higher du-
ration.
If you can’t, put a bent paper towel in between the
food and the bag, remaining always below the area
where the sealing will be done. Leave the towel in-
side the bag in order to absorb humidity and juices
in excess during vacuum cycle.
• TIPS FOR CHEESE VACUUM PACKING:
It is possible to vacuumise cheeses also for a long
period (up to 120 days for crusted cheeses) but,
because of anaerobic bacteria, soft cheeses never
have to be vacuum packed.
• TIPS FOR VEGGIES VACUUM PACKING:
We warm recommend to blanching the veggies in
boiling water or in the micro-wave before vacu-
um packing in order to interrupt enzymatic action
which could lead to flavour, colour and texture loss.
After blanching, dip them in cold water to stop
cooking process.
NOTE: all veggies naturally output some gas during
the conservation. For this reason, after blanching
and vacuum packing, we suggest to store them in
the freezer.
IMPORTANT: because of anaerobic bacteria,
mushrooms, onions and garlic never have to be
vacuum packed.
• TIPS FOR POWDERS VACUUM PACKING:
When powder products like flour, it is better to use
the original packing inside the vacuum bags. Light
powders could be sucked inside the machine and
cause damages or affect the reaching of a total
sealing.

HOW TO GET DESIRED DIMENSIONS OF THE BAGS:
This vacuum machine is equipped with a cutter in
order to cut the desired length of the bag from the
goffer roll. Please make sure you cut in straight
line.
1) Open the lid. Put one edge of the cut bag on the
holding stripe.
2) Close the lid pushing on both sides till you hear
a double “click”.
3) Now that the lid is locked, push the button
“SEAL-CANCEL” to get a customised bag. The light
turns on during the sealing phase.
4) Once completed, the light turns off; push the
locking buttons on both sides, now it is safe to take
the brand new bag.
5) Customised bag is now ready for the vacuum
sealing.
ATTENTION: Be sure to let the machine cool down.
Wait at least 20 seconds between one cycle and the
next one. In case of a prolonged use the machine
turns off itself in order to avoid an over-heating.
In that case, wait 25 minutes in order to make the
machine cool down.

PROCEDURE FOR THE WORKING CYCLE
1) Put the product inside the goffer bag. Leave at
least 2 cm between the product and the upper part
of the bag to allow a correct sealing of the bag it-
self.
2) Open the lid and put the open side of the bag in
the vacuum chamber, as per figure:
3) Close the lid pushing on both sides till you hear
a double “click”.
4) Choose the proper function according to the
product you are going to pack: FAST/LOW/DRY/
MOIST
NOTE: when humid products are sucked, choose
MOIST and slow program.
5) To start with the vacuum cycle, push the “VACU-
UM & SEAL”.
6) Once the light is off, push locking button on both
sides to open the machine and take out the bag.
PROPER USE OF PULSE VAC
Since pressure during the regular vacuum function
is usually very high, sometimes it happens that
more fragile products get damaged. In this case,
it is possible to use the “PULSE” function to check
the vacuum time and pressure no to squeeze the
delicate objects.
When packing products with a high percentage of
liquids, it is possible to use this function in order
to avoid that the liquid is sucked inside the pump.
1) Put the products to be sealed inside the goffer
bag. Posizionare gli articoli da sigillare nella busta.
Leave at least 2 cm between the product and the
upper part of the bag to allow a correct sealing of
the bag itself.
2) Open the lid and put the open side of the bag in
the vacuum chamber.
3) Close the lid pushing on both sides.
4) Push the button “PULSE” till you reach the de-
sired pressure.
5) During this process, it is possible to stop the cy-
cle not to press this button anymore and start again
if desired.
6) When pressure reaches the desired level, push
the button “SEAL” to start the sealing phase.
7) Once the light is off, push locking button on both
sides to open the machine and take out the bag.
MAKE VACUUM IN EXTERNAL CONTAINERS
NOTE: containers and cable are not included in the
machine but are sold separately.
1) Plug the machine in and open the lid.
2) Put the desired product inside the container. Put
the tap on the upper part of the container e close
it using lateral locks. Select “VACUUM” on the tap
valve.
3) Connect the machine and the container by the
proper cable. It is necessary to connect one of the
2 extremities on the tap valve and the other one to
the accessories cavity on the machine.
4) Close the lid and press the side to lock it, the
system is completely closed when you hear a dou-
ble “click”. If you want to open the lid once it has
been closed, push again on both sides and gently
raised the lid.
5) To start with the vacuum cycle, push “Canister”
button.
6) This vacuum machine is conceived to work on
an automatic mode. The machine is equipped with
a vacuum sensor that interrupts the cycle once
the vacuum level is reached inside the canister. To
cancel the sucking process, push again the button
“Canister”.
7) Once the process is completed, machine stops
by itself. Select “CLOSE” / “CHIUSO” on the valve
and take the connector off
