performance. In some instances, problems may arise. Please consult the trouble shooting

screen will be illuminated when on.
The Pro150 automatically shuts off after 5 minutes of idleness. Press ON/OFF
button if machine has been idle for more than 5 minutes.
Pro150 doesn’t pull a complete vacuum with bags
If using MANUAL mode, vacuum/seal time may not be set high enough. Set vacuum
and seal times higher, or use AUTO mode, and vacuum again.
To vacuum and seal properly, edge of bag must be within the vacuum channel. Make
sure bag is inside the vacuum channel and that there are no wrinkles in the bag along
seal bar.
If packaging from a custom-made bag, make sure first seal is complete and that there
are no gaps in either seal.
Pro150 and vacuum bag need to be clean, dry and free of debris for the vacuum
process to be successful. Wipe surface of seal bar and inside of bag and try again.
Vacuum bag loses vacuum after being sealed
Sharp items can puncture small holes in bags. To prevent this, cover sharp edges with
paper towel and vacuum in a new bag.
Some fruits and vegetables can release gases (out-gassing) if not properly blanched or
frozen before packaging. Open bag. If you think food spoilage has begun, discard food.
If food spoilage has not yet begun, consume immediately. If in doubt, discard food.
