Always place the open end of the bag flat and straight on the sealing bar, do not overlap or wrinkle
•
Large or empty bags needs longer vacuuming times. Smaller bags vacuums quicker therefore need less time
•
Increase the vacuum time for a tighter package
•
Fresh fruit and vegetables are not recommended for vacuum packaging as the pressure could damage them
•
For best marinating results, repeat the vacuum process 2 or 3 times

Always check the seal line to ensure it is clear, flat, and evenly melted. If not fully melted, seal for a further
1-2 seconds
•
In cold weather the seal process may take longer. Set the seal time for slightly longer for a better result
Keep the open end of the bag clean and dry
