Making bags from rolls of film
∙ Determine the space required for the food
∙ For the lower and the head welding, add 8cm length.
∙ Place the front end of this tube of film against the black oval sealing lip, ensuring
that it is smooth and free of creases.
∙ Close the lid and lock it by pressing on the right and left side.
∙ Seal with the „Seal" button. The unit stops automatically when the welding has
been done.
∙ Press the right and left release buttons to open the device.
∙ The sealing bar will be hot!
Vacuum Sealing
∙ Do not seal spoiled food or flammable liquids.
∙ Place the food in the bag. Ensure that the bag is not damaged by any sharp objects,
such as bones.
∙
Insert the bag up to half down the vacuuming tray, ensuring that it is free
of creases, dry and free of residue.
∙ Damp bags are difficult to weld. Press excess air out of the bag so the pump does
not pump unnecessarily.
∙ Lock the lid on the right and left side with an audible click and press the "Vas/Seal
button.
∙ Ensure that the vacuum pump does not suck up any liquids. If this occurs, press the
stop button immediately.
∙ The aspiration and the welding stop automatically.
∙ Do not seal twice in the same place,
since this may cause the film to burn.
∙ Allow the device to cool for one minute between sealing operations.
∙ If the device becomes overloaded, the overheating protection will switch the
device off. If this happens, disconnect the device from the power supply and leave
it to cool for about 20 minutes.
Vacuum hose
∙ Do not fill the vacuum container too high with liquids
∙ Open the lid of the device and put the vacuum hose with the large adapter on the
vacuum nozzle in the vacuum chamber.
∙ Place the small adapter on the vacuum container
∙ Pres the canister button. The device works and stops automatically.
