6. Press the lock/release buttons on the sides of the
appliance to open the lid (picture E) and take out the foil.
ATTENTION: The sealing band gets hot during the
sealing process. Beware of not touching the hot sealing
band with any parts of your body or heat-sensitive items.
7. Check if the weldseam is even. The bottom of the
bag is sealed and leak-proof when you see a smooth
line with no interruption of a pattern on the seam.
How to vacuum-pack in a plastic bag (foil)
8. After sealing the bottom of the plastic bag and ensuring that the seam is leak-proof
you can fill the plastic bag with food.
NOTE: For best results do not overload the plastic bag. Leave approximately 8 cm
of space above the food when cutting the foil, otherwise the appliance cannot
generate a vacuum.
NOTE: Pre-freeze moist food before vacuum sealing.
This way no liquids can get sucked into the appli-
ance and the food will not get pressed.
9. Place the open end of the plastic bag in the middle of
the gasket into the vacuum chamber (picture F). Ensure
that the plastic bag is below the round post (which is
the vacuum pump hole) to ensure no vacuum is leaking.
This is very important for vacuum sealing because oth-
erwise the appliance cannot generate a vacuum.
ATTENTION: When vacuuming in foil pay attention
that no food particles, liquids, or grease is in the sealing
section of the plastic bag.
10. Close the lid and press the lid down on the marked
lines (picture G). 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.
11. Press the Vacuum Seal button (picture H). The
appliance starts to operate. The control lamp of the
Vacuum Seal button illuminates in red. The appliance is
generating a vacuum. As soon as the vacuum procedure
is finished the control lamp of the Seal Only button also
illuminates in red. The appliance is in the sealing mode.
