2.1. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
a.) When taking the machine out of its packaging
check that all components are included and
undamaged.
b.)
Read the User Manual before you use the
machine for the first time.
c.) STATUS FV500 is a professional machine with the
technology and capacity adjusted to be used in
households. The machine is due to its functiona-
lity suitable to be stored on the kitchen top where
it can be conveniently used every day. Place it on
an even, smooth surface with enough space for
placing food into bags.
2. USAGE
Use the machine according to the following
instructions:
2.2.1.
PLUG IN THE MACHINE
AND PREPARE IT
FOR OPERATION
Every time you start working with the FV500 you
should warm up the machine. Close the lid, press the
Seal
button (
Item 1 in Figure 1
) and press down on the
lid. Wait for the
On/Off Indicator
to stop illuminating in-
tensely. This first cycle will warm the sealing strip.
When using vacuum bags skip paragraph 2 and
continue with instructions in paragraph 3.
2.2.2.
FIRST, MAKE A BAG
FROM THE ROLL
a.) Determine the length needed. A bag should be about
5 cm longer than the item to be vacuum packed. To
reuse the bag leave additional 2.5 cm of bag materi-
al for each time you plan to reuse it or next time use
the bag for smaller items.
b.) Cut off the desired length with the included cutter
(
Figure 2
). Use Channel (
Item 11 in Figure 1
) to cut
off bag evenly.
c.) Place the roll on the Sealing Strip and extend it to the
grey Silicon Gasket (
Item 7 in Figure 1, see Figure
3
). Make sure that the edge is straight and level.
d.) Close the lid.
e.) Press the
Bag
/Start/Stop button (
Item 1 in Fi-
gure 1
) and press down on lid with your hand
and hold it. The lid will automatically stick down and
seal the bag. If the Lid can be opened during the
process, you didn’t press down hard enough, so re-
peat the procedure. During sealing, the light (
On/
Off
) will be illuminated 100%.
f.) When the sealing process is completed, push Valve
(
Item 4 in Figure 1
) lightly to move it aside. Open
the lid and check the seal. It should be smooth and
transparent over its whole width.
Figure 2:
Cut the roll with the included cutter. To make
work easier, you can incorporate the cutter in the appli-
ance (see arrow).
Figure 3:
Place the roll on the Sealing Strip and extend
it to the grey Silicon Gasket to seal (see arrows).
