The appliance is not for continuous operation. Please wait 2 minutes after one
vacuum procedure before starting another one.
6. Pull the plug out of the power outlet when you have finished operating.
Manual vacuum-packing in a plastic bag (foil)
Manual vacuum-packing has the advantage that you can vacuum-pack food that easily
gets squeezed such as cookies, fresh fish or fresh fruit (raspberries). You can stop the
vacuum procedure anytime.
After sealing the bottom of the plastic bag and ensuring that the seam is leak-proof
you can fill the plastic bag with food.
NOTE:
For best results do not overload the plastic bag. Leave approximately 8 cm
of space above the food when cutting the foil, otherwise the appliance can not
generate a vacuum.
NOTE:
Pre-freeze moist food before vacuum sealing. This way no liquids can get
sucked into the appliance and the food will not get pressed.
1. Place the open end of the plastic bag in the middle of
the gasket into the vacuum chamber (picture C). This is
very important for vacuum sealing because otherwise the
appliance can not generate a vacuum. The smooth surface
of the plastic bag should face upwards.
ATTENTION:
When vacuuming in foil pay attention that no food particles, liquids,
or grease is in the sealing section of the plastic bag.
2. Close the lid and ensure that the lid is securely locked The lock will snap in (you will
hear a clicking sound when the lid snaps in). The appliance is now ready for use.
3. Press the VACUUM-switch (picture A). The appliance starts to operate. The
VACUUM-control light constantly shows a green light while the SEAL-control light
blinks orange. The appliance is generating vacuum. The vacuum procedure stops when
you press the SEAL-control light.
4. Press the SEAL-switch when enough air is exhausted out of the bag press the SEAL-
control light. The SEAL-control light blinks red while the VACUUM-control light shows a
constant green light. The red light indicates that the appliance is in the sealing mode.
The bag is sealed when the AUTO-control light constantly shows a green light.
NOTE:
If you wait too long before pressing the SEAL-switch, the vacuum sealer stops
automatically and the VACUUM-control light will show a constant green light. The
appliance will not respond to anything until you opened and closed the lid once! The
SEAL-control light will show a constant green light and you can continue vacuum sealing.
