Use
Produce a vacuum bag from a plastic roll
Place the appliance on a flat surface and plug it into a wall socket. All signal
lights light up briefly and then go out, except for the Normal and Dry lights that
stay on.
1. Open the device and pull out the appropriate length on the plastic. Place
the plastic under the blade and pull the knife control along the plastic.
Adjust the length so that there is at least 7 cm between the bag’s
contents and the opening of the vacuum bag. Only use plastic rolls from
OBH Nordica.
2. Then put one card end of the plastic over the sealing element and make
sure that the entire card end reaches the vacuum duct.
3. Close the lid and lower the handle so that the lid closes properly.
4. Push on the Manual Seal button to begin sealing; the signal light comes
on. The Progress lights show the sealing process. When the Manual Seal
lamp and Progress lights go off, the seal is complete.
5. Lift the handle to open the cover of the appliance. Remove the finished
vacuum bag. The vacuum bag is now ready to use for vacuum packing.
Important tips when vacuum packing
•
Do not put in too much ingredients in the vacuum bag/vacuum canister.
Leave at least 7 cm between the contents of the vacuum bag and the
opening of the bag.
•
Make sure that the vacuum bag’s opening is dry, as otherwise the bag will
not be properly sealed. One tip is to fold down the edge around the bag
before putting the ingredients in the bag so that the top of the bag stays
dry. Then fold the edge again before closing.
•
Extend the bag opening before it is placed against the sealing unit in order
to remove any folds and unevenness.
