12 INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Note: Refer to the Figures on the next page.
1. Prepare a bag to be vacuum sealed.
Note: Do not overload the bag. Always allow enough space at
the open end of the bag to be properly placed into the Vacuum
Chamber.
2. Open the unit and insert open end of the filled bag into the
Vacuum Chamber over the Sealing Profile. Ensure the Air
Intake is not covered by the bag.
See Fig 1
Note: Ensure no items or food is covering the Sealing Profile and
make sure bag has no wrinkles or ripples that will inhibit the seal.
Note: The Vacuum Chamber draws air out of the bag and catches
any liquid overflow in the Drip Tray. Lower Gasket, Drip Tray and
Vacuum Chamber should be cleaned regularly. Always ensure
these parts are cleaned immediately after handling raw meat,
poultry or fish.
3. Close and pull the Cover Lock Handle down to lock the lid.
See Fig 2
4. Check the LED indicator light of the Sealing Time to confirm
that the moisture (Extended/Moist/Dry) is set according to
the type of food to be packaged. The VS-I40 Vacuum Sealer
has an additional vacuum pressure setting (General/Normal)
that should also be set now according to the type of food to be
packaged.
5. Press the Vacuum & Seal button. The unit will start to vacuum
and will seal the bag automatically. Wait for indicator lights to
switch off before opening cover.
See Fig 3 and 4
Note: Vacuuming can be cancelled at anytime by pressing the
Manual Seal button, the pump will stop and sealing will begin.
6. Refrigerate or freeze sealed food bag if needed.
7. Before repeating with a new bag and food item, always wipe
away any excess liquid or food residue in the vacuum chamber.
IMPORTANT: Do not store or leave appliance for extended
periods with the cover closed and locked into position. It will
cause the gaskets and sealing profile to become compressed and
compromise the sealing ability of the unit. To store the unit start
with the cover in the open position, pull the cover lock handle
down and then close the cover. This will prevent the cover from
locking into place and enable it to be stored.
Note: Sealing button will not work if activated within 15 seconds of
a previous activation.
