Note:
With the function seal onlY, you can only adjust the sealing time. The evacuating
time (Vac Time) is set to 0 automatically. However, you may shortly hear the noise of
the vacuum pump during operation. This is normal. The appliance uses the generated
low pressure for getting an optimum seal.

sealer will start sealing, while on the display the seal Time counts down to 0 with
the indicator arrow flashing.
9. after the sealing time has elapsed, wait a few seconds until the recently used sealing
time is shown on the display again. open the lid and remove the prepared bag.

vacuum sealing a Bag – vac seal
using the Vac seal function, your bags will be evacuated before sealing.
noTe: With the evacuating time (Vac Time) set to 0, auTo is shown on the display
and automatic operation is selected, generating a pre-set low pressure in the bag. in
most cases, automatic operation is suited for vacuum packaging solid and tough food
containing only little moisture.
1. choose a bag of sufficient size. check that the bag is undamaged, before filling
it. Place the items to be sealed into the bag. at least 5 cm (2 inches) of free space
must be left between the contents and the top of the bag.
2. Place the appliance onto a suitable surface and connect it to the power supply. a
cracking noise is heart. This is normal.
3. open the lid and ensure that the dripping tray within the vacuum chamber is com-
pletely empty.
4. Place the upper rim of the bag onto the heating bar and vacuum gasket. it is crucial
that the rim of the bag completely reaches into the vacuum chamber all over. ensure
that the foil of the bag is laying smooth and without folds and gaps.
5. close the lid, slightly clamping the bag with the lid.
