17 Cleaning and Maintenance

This chapter provides you with important notices with regard to cleaning and maintaining
the device. Please observe the notices to prevent damages due to cleaning the device
incorrectly and to ensure trouble-free operation.

17.1 Safety information

Attention
Please observe the following safety notices, before you commence with cleaning the
device:
► The device must be cleaned and food residues must be removed at regular intervals. If
the device is not maintained in a clean condition, this will have a detrimental effect on
the service life of the device and can also result in a dangerous condition in the device
as well as in the growth of fungus and bacteria.
► Switch the vacuum-sealer off prior to cleaning it and unplug the plug from the wall
power outlet.
► The sealing strip is hot after it is used. There is a danger of burns! Wait until the device
has cooled down.
► Clean the device after use as soon as it has cooled down. Extended waiting
unnecessarily complicates cleaning and can make it impossible in extreme cases.
Excessive accumulations of dirt can even damage the device under certain
circumstances.
► Never immerse the unit into water or the dishwasher.
► If dampness penetrates into the device, this can damage the electronic components.
Please ensure that no liquid can enter the interior of the device.
► Do not use any aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
► Do not scrape off stubborn dirt with hard items.
► Dry thoroughly before using again.
