Use the pulse feature to manually control the
vacuum process and avoid crushing delicate
items.
1. Place items in bag allowing 7.5cm of
space between bag contents and top of
bag.
2. Open appliance lid and place open end of
bag into the vacuum channel. Close lid and
lock into 'operate' position.
3. Select and press appropriate food setting
- Moist or Dry.
4. Select and press appropriate speed setting
- Fast, Normal or Gentle.
5. Push and hold the Pulse Button. The
vacuum pump will run when the Pulse
Button is held down. Release 'Pulse'
button to stop the vacuum process. Repeat
pushing the 'Pulse' button until desired
amount of air has been removed.
Note: If the vacuum pump stops engaging
after several pushes of the Pulse Button,
it means the maximum vacuum has been
reached. DO NOT continue to push the Pulse
Button.
6. Press the Seal Button to seal the bag and
end the pulse mode.
7. When the progress Lights turn off, unlock
the latch, lift lid and remove bag.
Tips on Sealing a Bag
Make sure you've locked the appliance lid.
When making a bag from a roll, place bag
material on Sealing Strip, close lid and
ensure latch is locked in the 'operate'
position.
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.
