Whether the vacuum valve works.
Whether the break between two subsequent sealing actions is at least 25
seconds.
The bags lose their
tightness gradually
after packing.
Whether the sharp objects can be packed into standard foil or plastic
packaging prior to vacuum packing.
If the bag is too thin, the air may penetrate it.
The bags with food may appear to have lost their tightness as a result of
gas being released from food, which is a natural process.
Comments on safety
Remain cautious:
1. Liquids (water, oil) maybe cause the device to malfunction. In view of that, remove water from food using a
kitchen cloth or a paper towel. You can also pack the products into food packaging film or into a disposable
container. *The gas released will make the plastic bag bulge.
2. For vacuum packing, use the special film dedicated to a given sealer model.

Comments
1.
Packing food that contains water
The water contained in food (soups, purées, etc.) may flood the interior of the device and cause it to malfunction.
In relation to that, wipe any liquids with a cloth or a paper towel, pack the food into food packaging film, or pack
the food into a disposable container prior to vacuum sealing. You may also freeze the food slightly in order to
make it easier to vacuum pack.
2.
Packing loose food
Loose food (e.g., flour) should be put into a plastic bag prior to vacuum sealing.
3.
Packing of less fresh fruit and vegetables
Less fresh fruit and vegetables (tender and moist, e.g., cucumbers, pumpkins) release water or gas as a result
of internal pressure, leading to swelling of the bag.
Do not vacuum pack such products.
4.
Packing of liquid food
Do not vacuum pack liquid food (soups, marinades, etc.).
5.
Vacuum packed food (other than freeze-dried)
Place vacuum packed food (other than freeze-dried) in a refrigerator or a freezer.
6.
Long operation of the sealer
In the even of overheating, turn the device off and wait for it to cool down.
7.
Packing of hot food
Let the hot food cool down in order to avoid scalding yourself during packing.
8.
Storage of the sealer
The cover lock should be open.
Additional notes regarding vacuum packing
The sealing line markers should be continuous. If they are not, repeated the sealing (manually/automatically). Perform
air removal and sealing with the cover closed. If the bag is placed incorrectly, this may lead to lack of tightness and
continued vacuum pump operation. In such an event, stop the device using the Stop button.
