Food Safety Warning
Use fresh, perishable foods soon after purchase. Even under proper storage conditions, foods lose freshness
and nutritive value if they are stored too long.
Food Preparation Tips
Hard Cheeses:
To keep cheese fresh, vacuum package it after each use.
IMPORTANT: Due to the risk of anaerobic bacteria, soft cheeses should never be vacuum packaged.
Baked Goods:
To vacuum package soft or airy baked goods, we recommend using a FoodSaver
their shape.
IMPORTANT: Due to the risk of anaerobic bacteria, fresh mushrooms, onions and garlic should never be
vacuum sealed.
Preparation Guidelines for Leafy Vegetables:
For best results, use a container to store leafy vegetables. First wash the vegetables, and then dry with a
towel or salad spinner. After they are dried, put them in a container and vacuum seal as normal.
Preparation Guidelines for Liquids:
Only vacuum seal liquids in FoodSaver containers.
®
Preparation Guidelines for Coffee and Powdery Foods:
To prevent food particles from being drawn into the vacuum pump, place a coffee filter or paper towel near
bag valve or at top of container before vacuum sealing. You can place the food in its original bag inside a
FoodSaver bag or container.

Troubleshooting
Vacuum sealer does not start when Vacuum or Marinate Button is pressed:
1. Ensure vacuum sealer is charged.
Vacuum Sealer starts but bag does not tighten around food:
1. Ensure zipper is firmly closed. Slide fingers across entire zipper.
2. Air valve is not on flat surface. Reposition bag so the Air Valve lies flat on counter with no food under Air
Valve.
Vacuum Sealer starts but air is not removed from Container:
1. Ensure that the green valve is turned to the Vacuum/Store setting.
2. Make sure that you hold the handheld sealer or handheld accessory firmly on the valve when vacuuming.
3. Check that the green gasket is clean and properly fitted on to lid. Ensure that the lid is pressed firmly on
the base.
Vacuum Nozzle and Air Valve are not making secure contact:
1. Ensure Vacuum Nozzle is centered over the Gray circle and placed flat on Air Valve. Apply moderate
pressure.
Air was removed from the bag, but now air has re-entered:
1. Examine zipper and valve of bag. Food debris in zipper or valve may cause leakage and allow air to enter.
2. Sometimes moisture or food material along seal edges of the zipper or beneath the valve prevents bag
from sealing properly. Wipe the inside of bag around zipper and beneath valve and attempt to reseal.
3. If you are vacuum packaging sharp food items, bag may have been punctured. Use a new bag if there is a
hole. Cover sharp food items with a soft cushioning material, such as a paper towel, and reseal.
