Using the SEAL NOW Function
If at any time you want to interrupt the vacuum process, simply press the red SEAL NOW
button. This stops the vacuum process and immediately seals the bag. To prevent the
vacuum from crushing delicate foods or sucking liquids, press the SEAL NOW button until
the process is complete. SEAL NOW function will only work while in the vacuuming process.
Packaging With VacMaster Bags
The following instructions apply to vacuum packaging foods and other items with pre-cut
bags or roll material. For best results, we recommend using only VacMaster bags. Tips and
safety information on packaging with bags can be found on pages 13-16.
1. Select the proper bag size for items being packaged. Pre-cut bags come in Pint, Quart
and Gallon sizes. Roll material is available in either 8” or 11 1/2” widths. Be sure to allow
enough space - about 3” - for sealing, and an extra inch for every time you expect to
reseal the bag.
2. Cut the bag (if using a roll). Seal one end by placing it over the seal bar only and starting
the vacuum process. Immediately press the SEAL NOW button. Bag will be sealed when
machine stops.
3. Fill bag. Do not over fill. Leave about 3” at the top of the bag for ample sealing room. Wipe
off liquid and food particles from the area to be sealed.
4. Vacuum package the bag. Lift lid and place edge of bag within the vacuum channel. Make
sure bag is smooth along the seal bar. Close lid. Engage vacuum by using either
AUTO or MANUAL mode, pushing START and pressing down on lid.
