The heat-sealing process starts. The vacuuming level
indicators pulsate in orange one after the other until the
selected level has been reached.
At the end of the process, the chamber is ventilated and
an acoustic signal sounds. You can now open the glass
lid and remove the heat-sealed vacuum-sealing bag from
the chamber.

Risk of burns!
The sealing bar in the vacuuming chamber becomes
extremely hot if the appliance is used frequently and
there are long heat-sealing times. Never touch the hot
sealing bar. Keep children away from the appliance.
Notes
‒
At the highest vacuuming level, the process may
last up to 2 minutes. After this time, the bag is heat-
sealed and the vacuuming level that is reached
lights up.
‒
After vacuuming, check the heat-sealing seam on
the bag. Carefully try to pull the seam apart. If it
comes apart, select a higher heat-sealing level the
next time. If the seam is deformed, it has become
too hot. Select a lower heat-sealing level the next
time or leave the appliance to cool.
‒
If you vacuum food in bags several times in
succession, the heat-sealing column becomes
increasingly hotter. This may impair the quality of
the heat-sealing seam. After several vacuuming
processes, you should therefore select a lower
heat-sealing time or leave the appliance to cool for
approx. 2 minutes between the processes.
Heat-sealing in good time
Use this function if you only want to pack your delicate
food in a bag so that it is air-tight, without the contents
sitting too tightly against the bag.
During the vacuuming process, touch the
±
symbol to
end the process and heat-seal the bag in good time.
The appliance displays the vacuuming level until it is
reached.
At the end of the process, the chamber is ventilated and
an acoustic signal sounds. You can now open the glass
lid and remove the heat-sealed vacuuming bag from the
chamber.
Note:
To heat-seal the bag, the vacuuming drawer
requires a specific degree of vacuum. If you touch the
±
symbol first, the vacuuming drawer pumps air out of
the compartment until this degree has been reached.
The bag is then heat-sealed.
Cancelling the vacuuming process
During the vacuuming process, touch the
³
symbol to
cancel the process prematurely.
The appliance displays the vacuuming level until it is
reached.
The bag is not heat-sealed. The lid opens slightly and
the chamber is ventilated. An acoustic signal sounds.
You can now remove the vacuuming bag from the
chamber.
Vacuuming in the container
Vacuum the food in a suitable vacuuming container in
order to preserve the food for longer.
Suitable vacuuming containers
Only use containers that are suitable for vacuuming
food. Commercially available products are different
when it comes to the quality of the food and the
material.
The vacuum hose that is enclosed with this appliance
has an inner diameter of 3 mm. To ensure that the hose
fits, you may require an adaptor for your container. In
many cases, these adaptors are already included with
the vacuuming containers.
Proceed as follows:
1
Open the glass lid.
2
Plug the vacuuming adaptor into the air outlet.
3
Secure the hose to the vacuuming adaptor and the
vacuuming container.
4
Touch the
°
symbol to select the vacuuming level.
5
Touch the
²
symbol to start the vacuuming
process.
The vacuuming process starts. The vacuuming level
indicators pulsate in orange one after the other until the
selected value has been reached.
