8. Then, touch the
Vacuum & Seal
button. Now, your appliance vacuums and
seals the bag automatically. First, the control light next to
Vacuum & Seal
lights up, once the sealing process starts, the control light next to
Seal
lights up
as well. The
Vacuum Time
display counts down to “0”, then, the
Seal Time
display counts down to “0” as well. Afterwards, the two control lights next to
Vacuum & Seal
and
Seal
flash for a few seconds. Once the entire process has
been completed, these two control lights go out.
Caution:
To make sure that no air can get from the edge of the lid into the vacuum
chamber, we recommend pushing the lid down for the first few seconds of the
vacuuming process.
Note:
The appliance creates a high pressure vacuum in the bag. The pressure could
easily squeeze fragile foods. When vacuuming fragile foods, we recommend either
setting the vacuum time to 30 – 40 seconds or touching the
Seal
button once the
needle in the vacuum pressure gauge has reached -25"Hg. The appliance then
automatically switches off the evacuation pump and starts sealing the bag.
9. When vacuuming and sealing are completed, meaning when no lights are flash-
ing next to the
Seal
and the
Vacuum & Seal
buttons, you can open the lid up
all the way and remove the vacuumed and sealed bag.
(See
fig. 9
)
10. Check whether the new seal seam is straight and uncreased
(see
fig. 10
)
. Should
this not be the case, repeat the process after cutting off the weld.

GOOD TO KNOW:
– In order for the appliance to perform best, it should be left for at least 1 minute
to cool before you inserting the next bag. Wipe away potentially escaped liquid
in the vacuum chamber after each use.
– If you do not keep the cool down time of at least 1 minute in the vacuum cham-
ber of the appliance and try to keep on vacuuming, the sealing bar will overheat,
possibly sustaining permanent damage.
– Only Solis vacuum bags or films should be used, please do not use any other
bags in order to achieve optimal results and prevent damage to the appliance.
Defects caused by the use of improper accessories and supplies have to be fixed
at the owner’s expense even within the warranty period.
There are Solis vacuum bags in different sizes or vacuum bag film with which you
can set the bag size. Always choose a bag size appropriate for the food. Keep
in mind that the bag should be at least 8 cm larger than the food and you will
need an additional 2 cm for the weld.
For item numbers and descriptions, please refer to the enclosed order form.
You can purchase accessories for you vacuum sealer in good stores or you get
them from Solis. You can find the contact addresses at the end of this manual.
II. AUTOMATIC VACUUMING AND SEALING OF A BAG:
FUNCTION VACUUM & SEAL (5)
1. Open the lid of the appliance wide enough to lock it
into place.
2. Fold up the bag fixation clamp, it stays up.
(See
fig. 6
)
3. Place the fresh food into the bag. Please use the
original Solis vacuum bags or vacuum film exclusively
to avoid damage to the appliance and to ensure best
results.
For item-numbers and descriptions, please read the
enclosed order form. You can purchase accessories
for your vacuum sealer in good retailers or you get
them from Solis. You can find the contact addresses
at the end of this manual.
4. Clean the open bag end on the inside and the out-
side and smooth out the creases. The end has to be
free of dust and without folds. Gently push down on
the bag so that the excess air can escape from the
bag and the evacuation pump has less pumping to
perform.
5. Place the open bag end on the sealing bar.
Impor-
tant:
Make sure that the upper bag end lies above
the two metal surfaces of the bag fixation clamp
and the lower bag end underneath the two metal
surfaces so that the bag end basically embraces the
two metal surfaces. This is to make sure that the air
can be fully evacuated from the bag.
(See
fig. 7
)
6. Fold the bag fixation clamp back down, the two mag-
nets hold the clamp firmly against the metal surfaces
and the bag end is firmly placed on the sealing bar.
7. Close the lid so that it is placed on the chamber. If
required, adjust the vacuum and seal times by touch-
ing the
Set
button until either the
Vacuum Time
or
the
Seal Time
displays start flashing and then use the
+
or
–
button to adjust the time in the corresponding
position
