impression left on the bag.

nothing is happening.

Are you overlapping or too close to a used spot?
If so, move the bag away from the used spot by
•
1/4-inch and try again.
Is the vac-snap zipper fully closed?
Re-zip again using the zip-disc.
•
Are the foods in the bag fatty or juicy?
With a clean dry paper towel, wipe down the zipper treads on the
•
inside of the bag.

the circle you have already started. Make sure you line the puncture
tooth up and directly over the puncture you just made.
Is the drip tray full?
Empty, rinse out and thoroughly dry.
•
Is the heat-sealed circle complete and is the thickness of the seal even?
and through?
Visually review the heat seal impression left on the bag. If the seal

Is the vac-snap zipper bag edge lined up along the drip tray marking
line? Is the vac-snap zipper bag overlapping the inside of the Frisper
and bunched up under the lid?
Open the lid, move the bag edge to run parallel to the drip tray edge
•
with the zipper facing right or left.
