TIPS AND HINTS
1. For best results use Cuisinart bags,
canisters and accessories.
2. Allow at least 30 seconds in between
using Seal Only function to allow sealing
strip to cool slightly
3. Place bag on vacuum sealer so that the
bag curves naturally towards the unit.
4. During the vacuum sealing process,
small amounts of liquids, crumbs or
food particles can be pulled into the
vacuum channel, clogging the pump
and damaging the unit. To prevent this,
follow these tips:
a. Folding bag ends over and/or
standing bag up in a bowl allows you
to add foods into the bags with ease.
Folding bag ends over also allows you
to cleanly add (especially moist foods)
without getting any residue on the bag
edges, helping to ensure a better seal.
b. For moist and juicy foods such as raw
meats:
Pre-freeze food rst. You can also
place a folded paper towel inside the
top of the bag, but below the seal
area before vacuum sealing to help
absorb some of the excess moisture.
c. For soups, sauces and liquids:
Freeze rst and avoid overlling bags.
Or use a canister in refrigerator.
d. For powdery or fine-grained foods:
Avoid overlling bags or use a
canister. You can also place a
paper towel inside the top of the
bag, but below the seal before
vacuum packaging to avoid particles
preventing a secure seal.
e. Clean vacuum channel in between
each use with a clean paper towel
tightly wadded or rolled up and
inserted into vacuum channel to soak
up any liquid.
