PROLONGED DISUSE

If you plan not to use the machine for a prolonged period of time, clean it thoroughly, inside and out.
Before using again, check the machine is in good working order and clean it thoroughly again.

MALFUNCTION

In the event of a malfunction, before calling your KitchenAid Retailer for After-sales Service, check that the
power supply cable is properly inserted and that there is no power cut.
In addition, check that the seal of the glass lid is properly fitted and that the sealing bar is fully engaged on
the two pins.
If, after the above checks, the vacuum packing machine still does not work, disconnect it from the power
supply and call your KitchenAid Retailer or authorized After-sales Service.

Messages and Reminders

Pump oil replacement reminder (Oil cycle counter)

The vacuum packing machine features a high performance 

vacuum pump

, lubricated by means of a

circulating-oil lubricating system which employs a special lubricant designed for this purpose.
Over time, the oil naturally deteriorates due to machine usage.
Accordingly, to prevent a drop in machine performance, the oil must be changed every 2500 cycles. The
machine indicates when it is time for an oil change.

IMPORTANT

The oil change must be carried out by an authorized KitchenAid technician only.

When the machine is switched on, if an oil change is required 

all the led indicators on the control panel

flash for 3 seconds and an acoustic signal is emitted (long).

This type of visual and acoustic reminder

alerts the user to the need to change the pump oil.

All machine cycles remain selectable even in the presence of this alarm condition. The alarm will be reset
as soon as the oil is changed.

Malfunction messages 

The machine is constructed in compliance with all current relevant European norms and directives and
also features safety systems designed to guarantee user safety.
In the event of an electrical malfunction, the machine enters alarm mode, indicated as follows:
• all the led indicators on the control panel flash;
• all controls are automatically deactivated.

In the event of this type of warning, switch the machine off and wait for approximately 15 minutes to allow
cooling and automatic reset of the thermal overload cutouts.
Switch the machine back on. If the malfunction warning persists, unplug the machine and contact your
KitchenAid retailer or authorized After-sales service, providing the following information:
• the data on the data plate (on the left hand side of the drawer);
• date of purchase.

Do not attempt to repair or alter the machine or any part of it in any way whatsoever:

this may be dangerous and will render the guarantee null and void; employ a qualified, authorized
technician only.

Insufficient vacuum warning 

The machine is fitted with a device that gauges the vacuum level achieved inside the chamber, which is
decisive for correct machine operation. If the minimum set vacuum level is not reached, 

after approximately

one minute,

the cycle is automatically stopped.
