chamber can be easily removed for thorough
hand-cleaning in warm dishwater (see fig. U).
Should the lower seal have come into contact
with food liquid, it can be removed and cleaned

pletely and correctly reinsert it all around.

it. It should be reattached at the exact same position to prevent air from getting
into the vacuum chamber.

Caution: Before storing, always check that the lid of the appliance is not
locked shut! Otherwise the seals will become no longer airtight.
Store the appliance in a flat dark place, out of reach of children, at best in it's origi-
nal packaging. The vacuum sealer can be stored standing on the appliance base or,
to save space, on the side (upright or lengthways) (see fig. V+W).
The upper cover must remain open with the locking catches disengaged. Moreover,
nothing should be placed on top of the appliance so that there is no pressure on
the seals. Seals are consumables and are not covered by warranty.
