Care and Cleaning
• Always turn the power off and remove the
plug from the power outlet after use and
before cleaning.
• Both before and after use, clean the
exposed surfaces of the Food Preserver
using a non-abrasive sponge moistened
with a gentle dishwashing detergent.
• Any liquid which is accidentally vacuumed
into the Vacuum Chamber during use
should be soaked up and removed using a
non-abrasive sponge.
• Airtight and Sealing Gaskets may be
cleaned by dusting with a dry cloth to
remove dirt particles. If excessively dirty,
both the Airtight and Sealing Gaskets
may be removed and washed using a non-
abrasive sponge moistened with a gentle
dishwashing detergent and rinsed well.
Gaskets should be dried thoroughly with a
cloth or paper towel.
NOTE:
Do not stretch the gaskets as this will
prevent reinsertion back into the unit.
• Never immerse unit in water.
