Note
The power port of the appliance is covered by a silicone lid. Fold the silicone lid
open to plug in the small plug of the power cord. However, do not tear off the
silicone lid from its support, but re-use it to cover the power port again, when the
appliance is not in use.
2. Place the appliance onto a suitable surface and insert the small plug of the
power cord into the power port of the appliance first, then connect the power
cord to the mains power supply. The indicators DRY and NORMAL will illumi-
nate. The LCD display will show a circling dash (standby indicator).
3. Touch the metallic contact bar at the lid to open the lid. The LCD display will
show “OPEN”, while the lid is lifted up a little.
4. Push the upper rim of the bag onto the heating bar. Ensure to spread out the foil
smooth on the heating bar and without any folds and gaps.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to close the lid violently!
The appliance will clo-
se the lid automatically, as soon as the sealing function (SEAL) is started.
Always
avoid to hold your fingers between lid and base of the appliance, when the lid
is about to be closed.
Tip:
If it is difficulty to position the foil of an already filled bag, it may be helpful to
close the lid, and then control the position of the bag, before starting the desired
function. For closing the lid without starting a function, simply touch the contact
bar. “CLOSE” will be shown on the LCD display.
5. Press the SEAL button. The appliance will close the lid firmly and start the sealing
process. The SEAL button illuminates during sealing. After the sealing process, the
SEAL button gets dark again, and the appliance will open the lid automatically.
6. Remove the prepared bag. Ensure that the seal is even and airtight, before filling
the bag.
Important:
Before starting operation again, leave the appliance cool down for
at least 60 seconds. Do not leave the appliance connected to the power supply
when it is not in use.
7. After making a break of 60 sec., you may seal another foil, starting with step 4.
8. If you do not wish to use the bag sealing functions (SEAL or VAC SEAL) once
more, touch the contact bar to close the lid. Then unplug the appliance from the
mains power supply, remove the small plug of the power cord from the appli-
ance, and close the power port of the appliance via the silicone lid.
