• After one vacuum procedure let the appliance cool down for 2 minutes before
starting another.
• Always turn the appliance off, unplug and wait for the appliance to cool down,
before cleaning or storing. Close the lid to protect the grommet and gaskets while
storing.
Important Safeguards for all Electrical Appliances
• The sealing band is electrically heated. Ensure that the voltage rating of your
mains power supply corresponds to the voltage requirements of the appliance (120 V,
60 Hz, AC). Always connect the appliance directly to a mains power supply wall
socket with protective conductor (earth) connected properly. The installation of a
residual current safety switch with a maximum rated residual operating current of
30 mA in the supplying electrical circuit is strongly recommended. If in doubt, contact
your local electrician for further information.
Do not
use multiple electrical adopters.
•
Do not
leave the appliance unattended while connected to the power supply.
Always turn the appliance off and
IMMEDIATELY
unplug after use and before cleaning.
Always grasp the plug to disconnect the appliance from the power outlet.
• Always handle the power cord with care.
Do not
pull or strain the power cord.
The power cord should never be knotted or squeezed. Do not let the power cord
hang over the edge of the table or counter. Take care not to tangle the power cord.
•
Do not
immerse the motor housing or power cord in water or any other liquid.
•
Do not
pour or drip any liquids on the appliance or power cord. When liquids
are spilled on the appliance, immediately unplug the appliance and dry it to avoid
risk of electric shock or fire.
Do not
attempt to operate the appliance, when liquids
are on or in the electrical section of the appliance. When connected to the power
supply, do not touch the appliance, with wet hands, when the appliance is damp
or is touching a wet surface, in order to avoid risk of electric shock.
In this case
do not
touch the appliance
but immediately unplug the power cord from the power
supply and dry the appliance (see Care and cleaning).
•
Do not
place the
appliance
or power cord in an automatic dishwasher!
• The appliance is intended for vacuum sealing.
Do not
use the appliance for any other purpose.
• The appliance is not for continuous operation. Please wait 2 minutes after one
vacuum procedure before starting another. For additional safety the appliance is fitted
with a thermal cut out. In the event of overheating (for example 35 degrees or
overvoltage of +10%) the appliance will automatically shut down to prevent further damage.
Let the appliance cool down for 2 minutes before you continue to operate the appliance.
