Gastroback 46006 Design Vacuum Sealer Basic - Manual (Page 7)

Getting the appliance ready for use
1. Remove all promotional materials and packing and place the appliance on
a convenient dry surface (explained in the safeguards). Ensure you have enough
space in front of the appliance to lay down the plastic bag.
2. Pay attention that the gasket (in the bottom of the appliance) is properly assembled.
The gasket has to lay properly inside the cannelure and the edges of the gasket should
not overlap the cannelure. If the appliance is not properly assembled the appliance
cannot generate a vacuum.
3. Connect the appliance directly to a mains power supply wall socket with protective
conductor (earth/ground;
230 V, 50 Hz, AC, rated for 16 A). The appliance is now ready
for use.
Sealing the plastic bag
ATTENTION: Only use intended foil or plastic bags
for vacuum sealing food. Any other plastic bags melt on
the sealing band. Leftover plastic on the sealing band
would damage the band and the vacuum procedure.
1. Get the appliance ready for use. Press the
lock/release buttons on the sides of the appliance to open
the lid (picture A). Ensure the sealing band is clean and
no foreign substance is on the heating surface.
2. Take the roll of foil and cut a piece of foil to a
desired length (not too short!).
IMPORTANT: Make sure to have approximately 8
cm of foil above the food to be able to seal the bag.
3. Place one open end of the foil over the sealing band
(picture B). The end of the foil does not need to extend
into the vacuum chamber because we do not need to
generate vacuum for sealing the bottom of the plastic bag.
4. Close the lid and press the lid down on the marked
lines (picture C). Ensure that the lid is securely locked and
the lock has snapped in (you will hear two clicking sounds
when the lid snaps in). The appliance is now ready for use.
5. Press the Seal Only button (picture D). The appliance
starts to operate. The control light of the Seal Only button
illuminates in red. The appliance is in the sealing mode.
If the bottom is sealed the indicator light switch off.
