4.) Starting the automatic programme
B.) Manual vacuuming and sealing
ATTENTION: Depending on the period of activation, the air is
not completely extracted with this function and thus there is no
complete vacuum. The storage time of the food is reduced. The
table “storage times” of this manual does not apply in this case!
Note: When vacuuming manually, the pump capacity cannot be changed.
1.) Preparing the appliance for operation
• Completely unwind the power cord from the cord storage.
• Put the plug into a socket. All pilot lamps light up for a short time.
• For unlocking the upper part, fold the handle upwards.
• Open the upper part up to the stop.
• The appliance is in standby mode. The pilot lamps above or below the buttons “Lebensmittel“ and
“Pumpleistung” light up.
• Place the filled bag with the open end below the stop
angle in the vacuum chamber.
Note: You can check the correct position of the bag
in the inspection window.
• To start the programme, press the button
“Automatik / Stopp“.
Note: The operation can be stopped at any time by
pressing the button “Automatik / Stopp“ once again.
Note: To avoid overheating, the appliance
automatically stops after one minute of extraction
time, if the bag is not tight.
• The appliance activates the pump and extracts air from the bag, thus creating a vacuum. The pilot
lamp below the button “Automatik / Stopp“ lights up.
• After successful extraction of air, the pump stops and the sealing of the bag starts. Now the pilot
lamp below the button “Versiegeln” lights up additionally.
• As soon as this pilot lamp below goes out, the process is completed. The appliance switches to
operation mode. The first pilot lamp at the status display as well as the upper resp. lower pilot lamps
of the buttons “Lebensmittel“ and “Pumpleistung” - depending on the setting - light up.
• In order to remove the bag, fold the handle upwards and then open the upper part of the appliance
up to the stop.
• Check the sealing seam. A correct seam should be a smooth straight line without wrinkles and
showing no structure anymore.
• Pull the mains plug after each use and bring the upper part into parking position.
Note: You can see the progress of the function in the status display.
