TROUBLE SHOOTING
Air is not removed from the bag completely:
1. To seal properly, the open end of bag should be resting entirely inside vacuum chamber area.
2. Check the sealing strip and the foam gaskets for debris and positioning. Make sure there is
no breakage or distortion on both foam seal gaskets. Wipe clean and secure them back into
place.
3. The vacuum bag may have a leak. To test for a leak, seal the bag with some air in it, submerge
inwater,andapplypressure.Bubblesindicatealeak.Ifthereisaleak,re-sealoruseanother
bag.
4. Useonlythespecicvacuumbags/rollswithvacuumchannelsprovidedbyRussellHobbs.
5. There may be leaks along the seal caused by wrinkles, debris crumbs, grease or liquids. Open
the bag, wipe along the sealing area on the inside of the bag and smooth it out along the
sealingstripbeforere-sealing.
Air has entered into the bag after being sealed:
1. There may be leaks along the seal caused by wrinkles, debris crumbs, grease or liquids. Open
the bag, wipe along the sealing area on the inside of the bag and smooth it out along the
sealingstripbeforere-sealing.
2. The release of natural gases or fermentation from foods (such as fresh fruits and vegetables)
may occur. If you think food has begun to spoil, open the bag and discard food. Lack of
refrigerationoructuatingtemperaturesintherefrigeratorcancausefoodtospoil.Iffoodis
not spoiled consume food immediately.

vacuum seal hard items with sharp points (like bones or shards of nut shell). If necessary,
cushion sharp edges in the contents of the bag with paper towels.
