Rolls Of Bags; Looking After And Cleaning Your Machine; Cleaning The Vacuum Sealer - Brandt SOU-110V Manuel D'instructions

3. Clean and arrange the open end of the bag before closing it. Make sure nothing has been
left in the upper part and there are no impurities. Your bag must not be crumpled. (These
things could prevent bags from being hermetically sealed)
4. Do not leave too much air in the bag. Press on the bag to evacuate the excess air. Too
much air increases the load on the pump and may cause insufficient motor power. The
machine can then not empty all the air from the bag.
5. Do not pack sharp objects such as fish bones or hard shellfish. Sharp items may penetrate
and tear the bag.
6. Fill 2/3 of a bag with water and close it without removing the air (Seal key). Freeze the
bag. This will enable you to make blocks of ice using your vacuum sealer.
7. Only sealing one bag a minute before allowing the machine to rest is recommended.
8. If the bag is not emptied sufficiently the evacuation process will stop automatically after
30 seconds. In this situation please refer to Chapter 8, Troubleshooting.
