14 INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Do not overload the bag; leave enough space at the open end of
the bag so that the bag can be easily placed over the heat seal bar
and in the vacuum chamber.
2. To avoid overfilling, always leave at least 5cm of bag material
between bag contents and top of bag. Then leave at least an
additional 2cm of material for each time you plan to reuse the bag.
3. Clean and straighten the open end of the bag before sealing. Make
sure nothing is left on the open area of the bag and the bag has
no wrinkles or creased lines. Foreign objects or a creased bag may
cause difficulty in sealing the bag tightly.
4. Do not vacuum package objects with sharp points like fish bones
and hard shells. Sharp points may penetrate and tear the bag. You
may want to cover the sharp points with an additional piece of film,
or use a canister instead of a bag.
5. Allow the appliance to cool down for one minute between each
sealing operation.
6. Clean the vacuum chamber and gaskets after each vacuuming
operation.
7. When using a canister, remember to leave 2cm from canister
cover rim, and make sure the upper lid is already locked before
vacuuming.
IMPORTANT:
Do not reuse the vacuum sealer bags after using
with raw meat, fish or poultry or after the bag has been heated, i.e.
microwave or simmer.
The Vacuum Sealer will change the way you purchase and store
food. The Vacuum Sealer removes air from the specially designed
vacuum sealer bags and canisters to create a commercial quality
vacuum.
The ease and convenience of preserving and extending the freshness
of your food with the Vacuum Sealer will become an indispensable part
of your food preparation.
The Vacuum Sealer removes air from specially designed bags
and canisters to extend food freshness up to 5 times longer than
conventional storage methods.
Oxygen and moisture in air causes food to degrade over time, by
removing the air before sealing items airtight the Vacuum Sealer
extends the life of food naturally.
Vacuum sealing is not intended to replace the refrigeration or freezing
of foods, food should still be refrigerated or frozen if normally required.
IMPORTANT:
It is best to vacuum seal fresh food, vacuum sealing will
not restore or revive food past its prime. Do not consume food that has
gone bad.
