INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Waring®Commercial WCV300
Chamber Vacuum. With this unit you will be able to keep food fresher
longer in the refrigerator, freezer or pantry. The WCV300 effectively
removes air and extends freshness up to ve times longer than
normal preservation methods.
The WCV300 is a chamber vacuum sealing system, which offers two
distinct advantages over non-chamber, external suction units. First, a
much higher level of vacuum can be achieved, which means a longer
shelf life for foods that you package. Second, liquids and liquid-rich
foods can be effectively vacuum packaged. Foods like fresh meats,
sh, soups, stews, and marinated vegetables are packaged quickly,
with ease and no mess.
The WCV300 uses proven technology. To use, simply place the
pouch to be sealed inside the chamber, align with pouch clamps and
close the lid. Push Vacuum/Seal to begin the sealing process, which
rst removes the air from the entire chamber and the vacuum pouch.
Once the preset vacuum/seal time has elapsed, the pouch is fully
sealed. Upon completion of the sealing cycle, air ows back into the
chamber. Wait for the lid to release, and the process is complete.
To get started, please read and follow all instructions for use
and maintenance carefully before operating the WCV300
Chamber Vacuum.
VACUUM PACKAGING OVERVIEW
Vacuum packaging has been used with success for many years
as a safe and cost-effective method for extending shelf life and
maintaining the quality of food products. Whether you are familiar or
not with this packaging method, there are certain basic guidelines
that should always be followed in order to package foods safely for
consumption. Neglecting these basic guidelines can result in food
spoilage, and in some cases, illness or death.
Here are a few tips to get you started:
• Package only fresh foods. Do not package old or rancid foods. An
already bad product does not improve with vacuum packaging.
• Fresh foods (meats, vegetables, cheeses, etc.) should be
refrigerated at 40˚F or below, or frozen after vacuum packaging.
• Vacuum packaging removes a high percentage of air. This slows
the growth of living microorganisms, such as aerobic bacteria, and
molds, which degrade food. However, some forms of bacteria,

3
such as clostridium botulinum (responsible for botulism), are
anaerobic and grow in the absence of oxygen.
• The foods susceptible to botulinum should be refrigerated for
the short term and frozen for long-term storage, and consumed
immediately after heating.
• Vegetables such as cauliower, broccoli and cabbage will emit
gases when vacuum sealed. To prepare these foods for vacuum
packaging, you must blanch them rst, prior to sealing and then
freeze.
• All perishable foods must be refrigerated or frozen to prevent
spoilage.
• Vacuum packaging is not a substitute for canning.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Plug the machine into a grounded electrical outlet
• Properly insert the electrical cord into the wall outlet.
Turn the power switch on
• Turn the main power switch located on the rear of the unit,
switching it from “OFF” to the “ON” position. The LED screens on
the control panel will illuminate showing the default Vacuum and
Seal times.
Select a vacuum chamber pouch
• Select the proper size vacuum chamber pouch for the product that
you are packaging. Make sure that the mouth of the pouch does
not exceed the length of the seal bar, and make sure the entire
pouch ts inside the chamber. Allow at least 1" of extra headspace
at the top of the pouch to ensure a quality, airtight seal. The
WCV300 accepts vacuum chamber pouches up to 11"W x 13"L.

9
Fill the pouch and place inside the chamber
• Fill the pouch with the product to be vacuum packaged and place
the pouch inside the chamber. Keep pouches that contain liquids
or wet products below the height of the seal bar. Lay the pouch at
inside the chamber with the opening of the pouch across the seal
bar. Make sure that the pouch lies at across the seal bar and is
free of wrinkles and/or debris.
Close the machine lid to vacuum and seal
• Close the lid and press Vacuum/Seal button to begin cycle.
CAUTION: Be sure lid is closed properly. An open lid will prevent
the vacuum seal from operating correctly.
Inspect the pouch
• When the lid is released and able to be opened, remove the
pouch and inspect the vacuum-packaged product.
• Check the quality of the vacuum by looking and feeling the
tightness of the pouch and the product. Look for air pockets
or leaks. If you notice that the product is not vacuum sealed
tightly, then increase the vacuum time by 5 seconds and
vacuum seal again.
• Inspect the pouch seal for a positive seal that appears clear upon
inspection. If the seal is spotty or incomplete, increase the seal
time by 1 second. If the seal appears white or milky, decrease the
seal time by 1 second. Once the settings are determined for your
application, vacuum and seal again.
MAKING A POUCH FROM A ROLL
The pouches included with the WCV300 are sized (sealed at one end)
and only require a seal to be made on one end during the vacuum/
seal process. Another alternative to purchasing pre-sized vacuum
pouches is a roll that comes in many different lengths (typically
50 feet) and can be custom cut to the desired size pouch needed for
the specic product. To order, contact the customer service phone
number. Below are the simple steps for sizing/sealing a pouch from
a roll.
1. Plug the WCV300 into a wall outlet. Switch unit ON.
2. Pull pouch from roll until the desired length is reached
(no longer than 13").
3. Cut the pouch as straight as possible with a scissors or pouch
cutter (not included).

10
4. Open lid using the handle (Fig. 1) and place one end of the
pouch on top of the seal bar, making sure that the entire end
is securely positioned under the pouch clips. (Fig. 2)
5. Pull down lid and press the Seal button. The Vacuum screen will
ash and display “0” and pump will operate for a few seconds.
The Seal screen display will count down to “0,” then the Sealing
LED indicator will ash for a few seconds. LED indicator will turn
off when process is nished. (Fig. 3 and 4)
6. Lift the handle to open the lid. Remove the nished vacuum
pouch. The vacuum pouch is now ready to be used for vacuum
packing.
TO QUICKLY MARINATE
Marination not only tenderizes the surface of the meat and
vegetables to be cooked, but also infuses more avor into them.
The latter is especially true when marinating thin cuts of meat or
small pieces of vegetables. But this can be a time-consuming
process, requiring anywhere from 12–18 hours of refrigeration.
Here, vacuum packing comes through as an alternative method that
immediately opens up the surface pores of the food to accept the
marinade mixture, thereby fast-tracking the process.
Fig. 1 Fig. 2
Fig. 4Fig. 3

11
To quickly marinate your product, follow the simple steps below.
Start by preparing the marinade mixture.
Cut the meat or vegetables to appropriate size and put them into
a vacuum pouch.
Pour the desired amount of marinade into the bag and mix the
ingredients well by manipulating the pouch from the outside.
Holding the bag in an inclined position, ensure the level of the
marinade is not too close to the mouth of the bag, as this may yield
a weak seal. If needed, drain out excess marinade so as to leave a
gap of 1 inch or more between the marinade and the bag’s mouth.
1. Lift the handle to open the lid and place the vacuum pouch or
container into the chamber.
2. Pull down the lid and press Marinate button to start the
process. The Vacuum Time screen will display “99” and count
down to “0.” Once the cycle is completed, the Marinate LED
indicators will turn off and the vacuum will be released.
3. Repeat step 2 at least two more times before vacuum sealing.
4. Lift the handle to open the cover and remove the item.
HINTS FOR BEST VACUUMING PERFORMANCE
1. Ensure the mouth of the pouch is completely dry and free of
debris prior to initiating any of the WCV300’s functions.
2. Do not vacuum pack objects with sharp points like sh bones
or hard shells! Sharp points may penetrate and tear the pouch!
3. Make sure the vacuum chamber gaskets are free of cracks,
deformations and debris before operating. If any of these are
evident, remove the gasket to clean and dry thoroughly or
replace with a new one.
4. Vacuum pouches are safe for
microwave (pouch must be
pierced prior to microwaving)
and boil-in-bag cooking.
5. There are many non-food
uses for vacuum packing.
Keep camping supplies such
as matches, rst-aid kits and
clothing clean and dry. Keep ares for auto emergencies ready.
Keep silver and collectibles untarnished. Store and protect
other items: valuables such as photos, important documents,

12
stamp collections, book collections, jewelry, cards, comics,
etc. Hardware items such as screws, nails, studs and bolts, and
medicines, Band-Aids®and other rst-aid items, etc.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Always unplug the unit before cleaning.
2. Do not immerse in water or any other liquids.
3. Avoid using abrasive products or materials; they will scratch the
surface.
4. Lift lid.
5. Remove upper hinge covers
from both sides of unit by pulling
upward from the corner.
6. Wash hinge covers with mild
dish-washing soap, rinse and
thoroughly dry.
7. Wipe hinges, around components,
and chamber vacuum surfaces with
a warm, damp cloth to clean off any
food residue.
8. Dry thoroughly before reassembling chamber vacuum.
Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service
representative.
NOTE: The foam gaskets around the vacuum chamber should
be dried thoroughly before re-assembling. Be careful when
re-assembling to prevent any damage, and assemble in original
position to ensure no vacuum leaking.
MAINTENANCE KIT INSTRUCTIONS
• Replacing the gasket:
1. Turn the main power ON/OFF switch to OFF. Remove the power
cord from the electrical outlet.
2. Make sure the unit is completely cool.
3. Open the cover. (Fig. 1)
4. Remove the gasket from the groove by gently pulling down in
the Plastic Vacuum Chamber. (Fig. 2)
5. Set a new gasket on the groove in the Plastic Vacuum Chamber.
Work the seal into the groove with your ngers until rmly in
place. (Fig. 3)
6. If the gasket does not t properly, the machine’s performance
will be affected.

• Make sure that the machine is properly plugged into a grounded
outlet.
• Check the power cord for tears and frays. Do not use machine
if power cord is damaged.
• Make sure the power switch is turned on. LED screen will be
illuminated when on.
• If you see nothing displayed on the LED screen and the machine
will not function, make sure the lid is open and turn the power off.
Turning the machine back on should return it to working order.
WCV300 does not pull a complete vacuum with pouch –
• Vacuum Time may not be set high enough. Set Vacuum Time
higher and vacuum again.
• To vacuum and seal properly, the opening of pouch must be within
the vacuum chamber. For detailed instructions, refer to “Operating
Instructions.” See page 8.
• WCV300 seal bar, lid gasket and vacuum pouch need to be clean,
dry and free of debris for the vacuum process to be successful.
Wipe surface of seal bar, lid gasket and inside of pouch and
try again.

Vacuum pouch loses vacuum after being sealed –
• Sharp items can puncture small holes in pouches. To prevent this,
cover sharp edges with paper towel and vacuum in a new pouch.
• Some fruits and vegetables can release gases (out-gassing) if not
properly blanched or frozen before packaging. Open pouch. If you
think food spoilage has begun, discard food. If food spoilage has
not yet begun, consume immediately. If in doubt, discard food.
WCV300 is not sealing pouch properly –
• Seal time may not be long enough. Increase Seal Time and try
again. For detailed instructions, refer to “Operating Instructions.”
See page 8.
• Pouches will not seal if any moisture, food particles or debris are
present in the seal area. Wipe the inside of the pouch clean and
try again.
• Pouch must be properly placed along the seal bar. Make sure
the entire pouch is over the seal bar and there are no wrinkles in
pouch material.

Antes de empezar, lea atentamente las instrucciones de uso
y de mantenimiento.
INTRODUCCIÓN AL ENVASADO AL VACÍO
El envasado al vacío se usa con éxito desde hace muchos años para
prolongar el tiempo de conservación y preservar la calidad de los
alimentos de manera económica y segura. Ya sea que usted sea un
principiante o un experto, siempre debe seguir reglas de seguridad
básicas para garantizar que los alimentos envasados al vacío no
presenten ningún riesgo para la salud. El no respeto de estas reglas
de seguridad puede hacer que los alimentos se estropeen/pudren
y, en algunos casos, causar enfermedades e inclusive la muerte.
Para empezar, sigan estos consejos básicos:
• Envase solamente alimentos frescos. No envase alimentos
viejos, estropeados o rancios. El envasado al vacío no evita la
deterioración de los alimentos una vez que haya empezado.
• Refrigere (en 40°F/-4°C o menos) o congele los alimentos frescos
(carnes, vegetales, quesos, etc.) inmediatamente después del
envasado al vacío.

17
• El envasado al vacío extrae un alto porcentaje de aire, lo que
ralentiza el desarrollo de los microorganismos vivos tales como
las bacterias aerobias y el moho que deterioran los alimentos. Sin
embargo, no ralentiza el desarrollo de las bacterias anaerobias,
tales como el clostridium botulinum (la bacteria responsable
del botulismo), las cuales pueden sobrevivir y desarrollarse en
ambientes pobres en oxígeno.
• Los alimentos asociados con el botulismo deben ser refrigerados
o congelados inmediatamente después del envasado al vacío
y ser consumidos inmediatamente después de cocinarlos.
• Algunos alimentos tales como la coliflor, el brécol/brócoli y la col
despiden gases cuando se envasan al vacío. Para evitarlo, estos
alimentos deben ser blanqueados antes de ser envasados, y luego
deben ser congelados.
• Todos los alimentos perecederos deben ser refrigerados o
congelados inmediatamente después del envasado al vacío.
• Los alimentos envasados al vacío no se conservan de la misma
manera que los alimentos en conserva/enlatados.
