Trouble Shooting
Nothing happens when I press the ’’VACUUM’’ button:
Make sure the power cord is correctly plugged into the electrical outlet.
Make sure the power cord is not damaged in any way.
Make sure the electrical outlet is operative by plugging in another appliance. If it’s not, please check the
circuit breakers or fuses in your home.
Make sure the bag is positioned correctly down in the vacuum chamber.
Press down on both sides of the lid and make sure it is locked in place.
Wait 25 minutes to allow appliance to cool off, and then try using again.
Air is not vacuumed from the bag:
Check that there are no gaps, folds, wrinkles or holes in the pre-sealed bags.
Check for loose, worn or cracked Upper and Lower sealing gaskets.
Foods with high liquid contents may prevent the bag from sealing properly. Cut bag open and wipe top
inside of bag and reseal.
Check to see if bag is properly inserted into the vacuum chamber.
Make sure you’ve placed the bag in the proper place. When making a bag from a roll, make sure end of cut
piece is on the sealing strip.
Bag melts:
The sealing strip may have been too hot during the sealing process. Allow the unit to cool for 20 seconds
between uses. If the bag continues to melt, allow unit to cool with the lid in the upright position for 25
minutes before using.
Air has seeped back into the vacuumed bag:
Check the seal of the bag. There may be a hole or wrinkle that is allowing air to reenter the bag. Carefully
cut the bag open and re-seal it, or use an entirely new bag.
Make sure there is no moisture or liquid from the food present within the bag seal. You may need to cut
open the bag and re-seal it, or use an entirely new bag. Partially freeze foods with excess liquids, prior to
vacuum sealing.
Make sure there are no food items with sharp edges that may have punctured the bag. If you find a
puncture hole, seal the item in an entirely new bag.
Make sure no liquids were drawn to the sealing strip area.
Check for loose, worn or cracked Upper and Lower sealing gaskets.
