The appliance does
not seal the vacuum
bag after the vacuum
process.
There is a built-in vacuum sensor in the appliance. The
appliance does not switch over to sealing if insufficient
pressure has been achieved in the vacuum process.
Check the Teflon sealant and remove any dirt.
Check the gaskets and remove them for cleaning if
necessary. If they are damaged, they need to be replaced
with new ones.
The vacuum bag may leak. Check the bag by sealing it
with a little air and then lowering it into water. If bubbles
come from the bag, it is leaking. Reseal the bag or use a
new one.
Dirt or liquids in the bag opening can make it difficult
to seal the bag. Open the bag and wipe off around the
opening before it is placed level over the sealing unit.
There is air left after
the vacuum packing
process.
Leaks along the seal may be due to folds, liquid or
particles. Wipe off the bag opening/cover before sealing
begins. Dirt or liquids in the bag opening can make it
difficult to seal the bag. Open the bag and wipe off around
the opening before it is placed level over the sealing unit.
Make sure the bag opening is over the sealing unit and in
the vacuum channel.
Check that the gaskets are whole, clean and positioned
correctly.
The vacuum bag may leak. Check the bag by sealing it
with a little air and then lowering it into water. If bubbles
come from the bag, it is leaking. Reseal the bag or use
a new one. Only use vacuum bags/canisters from OBH
Nordica.
Check whether there are holes in the vacuum bag. Do not
vacuum pack contents that can damage the bag (such as
fish bones, hard shells, etc.).
It is recommended to leave around 7 cm between the
produce and the bag opening. But, if there is too much
air between the produce and the bag opening, it may be
difficult to get all the air out of the bag during the vacuum
packing process. If so, a piece of the bag can be cut off to
take it shorter.
