Preparation Guidelines for Bottled Liquids:
Leave at least one inch of room
between the contents and the
bottom of the bottle stopper before
vacuum packaging bottled liquids.
Preparation Guidelines for Dry Foods:
Before vacuum packaging dry foods
with sharp edges in a FoodSaver
bag, such as rice and pasta, wrap the
food in cushioning material, like a
paper towel. This will help protect
the FoodSaver Bag from punctures.

Preparation Guidelines for Powdery Foods:
For best results when vacuum pack-
aging powdery foods in a FoodSaver
Bag, leave the item in its original
bag, then place that bag inside a
FoodSaver Bag. This keeps fine or
powdery food from being drawn
into the vacuum pump and helps to
guarantee a good seal.
Keep powdery foods fresh and pro-
tect them from insect infestation by
repackaging them with the Vac
1050 after each use. You can open
the container and take what you
need for baking or cooking.
Preparation Guidelines for Snack Foods:
Keep snack foods fresh even if you
use them everyday by vacuum pack-
aging them with the Vac 1050.
Open the canister, take what you
need, then repackage it to maintain
freshness.
NOTE: Placing a box inside a FoodSaver Bag may puncture the bag. Therefore, it
is best to use the inner bag in which most powdery foods are generally packaged.
