Possible Cause
Solution
Nothing happens when I
press the vacuum sealer
1. Power cord is not plugged in.
2. Power cord is damaged.
1. Make sure the power cord is correctly plugged into the
electrical outlet, and in the “on” position.
2. Check power cord and plug, and make sure they are not
damaged in any way. If damaged, do not use the vacuum sealer.
Air is not removed from the
bag completely
1. The bag has not been placed
correctly inside the Vacuum
Chamber.
2. Debris covering sealing strip
or upper and lower gaskets.
Sealing strip gaskets may be out
of place.
3. Bag may have a hole.
4. Unit cover has not been closed
properly.
1. To seal properly, open end of bag should be resting entirely
inside the Vacuum Chamber.
2. Check sealing strip, upper gasket and lower gasket
for debris. Ensure Gaskets are correctly sealed and
are not compressed. See page 15 for further information on
Gaskets.
3. To test, seal the bag with some air in it, submerge in water, and
apply pressure. If there are bubbles present, it does indicate a
leak and a new bag should be used.
4. Open cover and re-close the cover. Push down firmly on the
cover until you hear it ‘click’ indicating the cover is now fully
closed and locked in.
