Cleaning and maintenance
Always unplug the appliance prior to cleaning and maintenance.
Cleaning the appliance
• Do not dip the appliance or its cord into water or other liquids.
• Do not use scouring cleaners as the material may be damaged.
• Use a moist cloth and some mild washing-up liquid to remove food particles and
dust from around the appliance’s components. Wipe dry with a towel or the like.
• Clean the appliance’s sealing unit (C), vacuum channel (D) and gasket (B) by wiping
them with a damp cloth.
Cleaning vacuum bags
• Wash the vacuum bags in warm water and a little washing-up liquid.
• If the vacuum bags are to be washed in a dishwasher, turn the vacuum bags inside
out and place them in the upper basket of the dishwasher so that the entire bag’s
surface comes in contact with water.
• Let the vacuum bags dry properly after cleaning.
NOTE! Due to the risk of infection, never re-use vacuum bags that have
contained raw meat, raw fish or fat. Never re-use bags that have been used in a
microwave oven or have been simmered in water.
Storage
Store the appliance on a level surface out of reach of children.
Troubleshooting
Problem
Cause/solution
Nothing happens when
I try to vacuum seal the
bag.
Check that the appliance is plugged in to a wall socket.
Check if there is any damage to the cord. Check that
the vacuum bag is correctly placed in the appliance (see
earlier instructions).
The sealing strip
loosens.
Put the sealing strip back by gently rubbing with one
finger from one side to the other. If the sealing strip is too
long, rub in the opposite direction. If a sealing strip breaks,
replace it with a new one (which can be ordered from OBH
Nordica at +46-8-629 25 00).
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 sufficient
pressure has not been achieved in the vacuum process.
Check the sealing strip and remove any dirt. Check the
gasket. If it is damaged, it needs to be replaced with a new
one.
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.
