c.) Before using the machine make
sure that it is completely dry.
d.) The sealing strip is covered with
Teflon. Remove any plastic residues
using a soft cloth.
e.) You can only clean the sealing
strip when the machine has cooled

strip using a sharp object.

Status HV100 is intended for longterm storage of food
-
stuffs in vacuum by vacuum packing foods in vacuum
bags or vacuum containers.
Most significant advantages of vacuum storage:
•
Preserves vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and the
aroma of foodstuffs.
•
Protects foodstuffs from the spread of mould and
bacteria.
•
Prolongs the shelf life of foodstuffs.
•
Prevents the mixing of unpleasant odours in the
refrigerator and freezer.
You can also prolong the freshness and shelf life of
foodstuffs by using Status vacuum containers, lids, and
a jug, which can all be vacuum sealed with a manual
or an electric vacuum pump. All these products can be
vacuum sealed with this machine using an enclosed
attachment for this type of vacuum packing.
1.5. GENERAL INFORMATION
We also have to mention that it helps you save money,
since you can buy in bulk, repackage your purchase in
portions and then vacuum pack it.
The serial number is located on the technical label of
each individual machine.

1.4. TIME INTERVALS
For the proper operation of the machine there should
be at least 20second time intervals between individual
cycles of sealing or vacuum packing. When the cycles
follow each other too quickly, the machine automati
-
cally stops and all the lights start blinking. Wait for the
machine to cool down (lights stop blinking) and then you
can carry on using the machine as normal. While the
machine is cooling down, do not unplug it.
