Preparing vacuum bags and containers
Using KitchenAid vacuum bags
1. Open the drawer fully (until it clicks).
2. Switch the machine on using the blue switch on
the front right hand side.
3. Select the size of KitchenAid bag best suited to
the dimensions of the food (15x25 or 20x20).
4. Open the lid, making sure the vacuum chamber
is dry. When placing food in the bag, take care
not to get the bag dirty or wet next to the
opening, as this could result in an ineffective
seal.
5. Position the support grille in the machine
compartment as shown, with the bag in the
centre of the grille, again as shown in the figure;
if necessary, angle the grille so that it slopes
slightly, as this will prevent any food spillage
during the vacuum cycle. For large items of
food, it may be necessary to remove the grille in
order to gain additional space inside the vacuum
chamber.
6. Line up the dotted line on the bag with the
sealing bar. Make sure the edges are positioned
on the bar without any wrinkles or folds.
7. Close the lid and hold it down while at the same
time selecting the desired bag cycle. Keep the
lid pressed down for a few moments. In this
way the lid will remain shut and tight to the seal
for the duration of the cycle.
