6.2 Vacuum Sealing
•
Plug in to power point and switch on.
•
Place the item(s) to be vacuum sealed into the pre-cut or custom sized bag.
Leave at least 5cm between the contents and the top of the bag to allow for bag
contraction.
•
Open the lid and place the open end of the bag down into the Vacuum channel
ensuring the bag is flat and wrinkle free.
•
Close the lid firmly by pressing down firmly on both sides, check to make sure
that the lid has latched closed. If the lid cannot be lifted, then you have
successfully locked the lid in place.
NOTE: The sealing strip will NOT work properly unless you lock the lid. Ensure
that the lid has been locked on both sides for proper sealing.
•
Now that the lid has been locked, press the “Vacuum & Seal” button. Unit will
start to pump out the air and the Green indicator light will illuminate.
•
When enough air has been withdrawn, the Green indicator light will turn off, the
Red indicator light will illuminate and the sealing process will begin.
•
Once completed and the Red indicator light has turned off, press the release
buttons on both sides of the machine, to release the sealed bag.

20 seconds between seals. Under very heavy usage, appliance will shut off
