Tips on Sealing a Bag
Prevent moisture or liquid from being pulled
into the Vacuum Channel or trapped in the seal.
Either pre-freeze moist food such as raw
meat for 1-2 hours before vacuum packaging,
or place a folded paper towel between food
and end of bag to absorb excess liquids. Just
be sure to leave at least 7.5cm between food
and end of bag so that bag seals properly
with paper towel inside.
Make sure you give appliance time to cool
down. Wait at least 20 seconds between
seals. Under very heavy usage, appliance will
not operate to prevent overheating. If it does,
unplug appliance, wait 20 minutes to allow
appliance to cool off.
Check for wrinkles in the bag along the Sealing
Strip. Wrinkles in seal may cause leakage and
allow air to come back into bag. Check for
wrinkles in bag along Sealing Strip before
closing lid and vacuum packaging. If you find
wrinkles after sealing bag, simply cut bag
open and vacuum package again.
If motor runs for more than 30 seconds without
stopping, consider the following: You may
need to adjust bag and try again. If you are
making the initial seal on a piece of bag
material with two open ends, make sure bag
is placed on Sealing Strip. If you are vacuum
packaging with a bag, make sure open end is
placed over the Vacuum Channel and make
sure Accessory Hose is not attached.
