PREPARING THE APPLIANCE FOR OPERATION
1. Remove all packaging materi-
als and any transport safegu-
ards. Keep children away from
packaging materials – danger of
suffocation!
2. A transparent protective foil is
attached over the operating ele-
ment; naturally this foil can be
removed.
3. Clean all parts with a damp
cloth, as described in the section
„Cleaning and care“.
4. Place the appliance on a suitable
level work surface.
5. Make sure that there is enough
space in front of the appliance for
the bag to be vacuum packed.
6. Connect the appliance via the
power cord to the power supply
(AC, 220-240 V~, 50 Hz). The
indicator lights „Normal“ and
„Dry“ are illuminated, indicating
that the appliance is ready for
operation.
VACUUM PACKING IN BAGS
1. Prepare the appliance as descri-
bed in the section „Preparing the
appliance for operation“.
2. Ensure that sure that the seal in
the appliance is clean. If foreign
objects, such as crumbs are on
the seal, they must be removed,
otherwise a vacuum cannot be
generated.
3. Fill a bag with the food to be
vacuum packed. For optimum
results, the bag should not be too
full. Leave about 8 cm between
the contents and the edge of the
bag.
4. Place the open end of the bag
in the middle of the vacuum
packing chamber. Ensure that
you leave adequate space left
and right. Do not press the bag
too firmly into the chamber, but
rather far enough, until you notice
that the bag is touching the rear
of the chamber. If the bag is not
correctly inserted, the appliance
cannot vacuum pack properly,
consequently ensure that the bag
is properly seated before procee-
ding.
5. Firmly press the two catches on
the right and left of the appliance
downward at the same time.
6. Press the „Vac/Seal“ button. The
indicator light shows that the
vacuum packing process is under-
way.
Tip: If you want to vacuum pack
things that are moist, press the
„Food“ button to change from „Dry“
to „Moist“. The vacuum packing
procedure is now especially
adapted to moist vacuum packed
goods.
If you want to vacuum pack things
that are crumbly, press the „Mode“
button to change from the „Normal“
function to the „Gentle“ function.
Thus the vacuum packed goods
