HELPFUL HINTS
1. Do not overfull the bags, leave enough length at the opening of the bag so that it
can be placed in the vacuum chamber easily.
2. Ensure that the opening the bag is not wet. A wet bag may be difficult to melt and
seal tightly.
3. Vacuum seal can not completely replace the refrigeration and freeze, Perishable
foods still need to be refrigerated or frozen.
4.Make the opening of plastic bags clean and flat, no foreign object or folds allowed,
otherwise it will cause difficulty or leak during seal.
5. To prevent wrinkles in a seal when vacuum sealing bulky items, gently stretch
bag flat while inserting into the vacuum chamber and hold it until the pump
begins to work.
6. When you are vacuum sealing items with sharp edges(dry spaghetti, silverware
etc.), protect the bag from punctures by wrapping item in soft cushioning material,
such as tissue paper, you may need a canister or container instead of a bag.
7. When using accessories, remember to leave 2.5CM(1-inch) of space at top of
canister or container.
8. Pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before vacuum sealing for the best
results.
9. Intervals for 40 seconds after seal or vacuum is recommended.
10. If you are unsure whether your bag was sealed properly, just reseal the bag.
11. For best results, please use LABESTO brand Bags, Canisters, Containers
and Accessories.
