OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Plug the unit into the wall, there will be a single Beep.
2. Press the Power button and another single Beep will sound. The
Digital LED display will light up with the time display to the left and
two canister images flashing to the right.
3. Turn the knob on the lid of the canister to the open/unlocked
position and remove the lid. With the canister in the upright
position, load the food and ingredients. Place the lid on top of the
canister and push down
firmly
to secure the lid.
Note: Do not overfill the canister. The canister can hold up to 10 lbs of
weight and still have the unit function properly.
4. Open the door of the vacuum tube compartment, found in the
base of the main unit. Take the vacuum tube out and insert it
securely in the suction port on the lid of the canister. Turn the
knob on the top of the canister to the center image. This will allow
the lid to seal when vacuuming begins.
5. To start the vacuum sealing process, press the function button
(the upright canister will light up). This indicates that the vacuum
has started decompressing the canister. This will take approx. 2-3
minutes to complete. The pump will automatically stop and you
will hear 3 Beeps when the vacuum is complete.
6. Turn the dial on the canister lid to the locked position. Remove the
vacuum hose from the suction port. Place the hose back into the
tube compartment and fully close the compartment door.
7. Place canister onto rollers with the lid facing the right hand side
and push the function button again. The display will change to the
canister on its side and the canister will start to rotate. The time
will default to 15 minutes and start the countdown.
Note: The canister must be completely dry in order for the rollers to grip
the canister and rotate it properly. Paper towels are often used to
dry it to ensure that all of the moisture is absorbed/removed prior
to rotating the canister.
8. If you desire a longer or shorter marinating time, press the plus or
minus button to change the time on the digital display. This can
only be done while the canister is rotating.
9. When the timer reaches 0:00 the rollers will automatically stop
and the unit will Beep 3 times. This indicates that your meat or
vegetables are finished and ready to be cooked.
