Care
and Cleaning of your Vacuum Sealer
To Clean Appliance:
Remove Power Cord from electrical outlet. Do not immerse in liquid.
Check Gaskets and around Drip Tray to make sure they are free from
food materials. Wipe off Gasket with warm soapy cloth if needed.
Upper and Lower Gaskets may be removed for cleaning. Clean with
warm, soapy water.
The Removable Drip Tray makes cleanup easy when small amounts
of liquids are inadvertently pulled into the Vacuum Channel during
vacuum process.
Empty Drip Tray after each use. Wash in warm soapy water or place
on top rack of dishwasher. Dry thoroughly before re-inserting into
the appliance.
Always leave lid latch in STORE position. Never store lid in OPERATE
position as gaskets may become compressed. When appliance is left
in OPERATE position, the internal gaskets become compressed and
the unit may not function properly (see below).
To Store Appliance:
Clean unit thoroughly as detailed above.
After the unit has been cleaned and allowed to fully dry, close lid
and push the Easy Lock Latch into the STORE (middle) position. This
setting will keep the lid closed but prevents any undue pressure from
being applied to the internal sealing gaskets of the unit.
Always leave lid latch in STORE position when not in use. Never store
lid in OPERATE position as gaskets may become compressed. When
appliance is left in closed position, the Gaskets become compressed
and the unit may not function properly.
