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 is begun. 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 sit
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 if 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 make it shorter.
Air enters the bag
after sealing.
Leaks along the bag edge can be caused by folds,
crumbs, food, etc. Open the bag again and wipe the
inside of the bag opening clean. Extend the opening
before it is placed over the sealing unit.
Natural gases can be released from fruit and
vegetables. Dispose of the bag with the contents if
you suspect that the produce is spoiled.
Check if there are holes in the bag. Do not vacuum
pack hard produce with sharp edges (such as
nutshells), but if so, wrap them in paper towels before
they are vacuum packed.
