TROUBLESHOOTING

AIR IS STILL IN THE BAG AFTER
1. Make sure the opening of the bag is placed entirely inside Vacuum
Chamber.
2. AIR IS STILL IN THE BAG AFTER VACUUM:
Examine the bag if it leaks. Seal bag with air, then immerse it in water
and apply pressure, Bubbles indicates a leak, use a new bag if bubbles
appear.
3. If you’re using Automated Food Vacuum Sealer Bag with customized
size, first check the seal of the bag. A wrinkle in the bag along the seal
may cause leakage and allow air to re-enter, just cut the bag and
reseal.
4. Do not attempt to make your own side seams, the bags are
manufactured with special side seams, which are sealed all the way to
the outer edge. Making your own side seams may cause leakage and
allow air to re-enter.
AIR WAS REMOVED FROM THE BAG, BUT AIR HAS RE-ENTERED
1. Examine seal of bag. A wrinkle along the seal may cause leakage and
allowed air to enter, Simply cut bag and reseal.
2. Sometimes moisture or food material (such as juices, grease, crumbs,
powders, etc.) along seal prevents bag from sealing properly. Cut bag,
wipe the top inside of the bag and reseal.
3. If you vacuum a package with sharp food items and the bag may have
been punctured, use a new bag. Cover sharp food items with a soft
cushioning material, such as a tissue paper, and reseal.
4. If there's still air in the bag, fermentation or the release of natural
gases from inside the food may have occurred, food may have begun
to spoil and should be discarded.
THE BAG MELTS:
If the bag melts, rubber lip may have become too hot, always wait at
least 5 minutes for appliance to cool down before you vacuum package
another item.
