• Freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before vacuum packing for best results.
• Hot liquids need to be cooled before vacuum packing. Hot liquids will bubble up and
over the top of the bag when vacuum packed.
• Partially freeze meats before sealing.
• During vacuum sealing, small amounts of liquids, crumbs or food particles
can be pulled into vacuum chamber clogging the pump and damaging your
appliance. To avoid this: Always clean chamber and freeze wet foods first before
sealing or place a folded paper towel near the inside top of the bag.
• Store perishable foods in the freezer or refrigerator. Vacuum packing extends
the shelf life of foods, but does not preserve them.
• Pantry items such as flour, rice, mixes for cakes and pancakes, all stay fresh
longer when vacuum packed.
• Keep camping supplies such as matches, first aid kits and clothing, clean
and dry.
• Keep silver and collectibles untarnished.
• Fill a bag about 2/3 full with water, seal the end (don't vacuum). Freeze the bag
and use for ice in the cooler or ice packs for first aid.
Troubleshooting
VACUUM SEALER HAS NO POWER
• Check to see that the unit is plugged in. To test an electrical outlet, plug in
another appliance, such as a lamp.
• Vacuum sealer will shut off automatically if overheated. Allow to cool down for 15
minutes and try again.
• Check power cord and plug for damage. If damaged, do not use the
vacuum sealer.
VACUUM SEALER DOES NOT PERFORM FIRST SEAL
• Make sure the bag end is properly positioned over sealing element and there
are no creases or debris in bag material.
VACUUM SEALER DOES NOT PULL A COMPLETE VACUUM
• To seal properly, open end of bag must be entirely inside vacuum chamber area.
• Check upper sealing strip and gaskets for obstructions. Wipe clean and ensure
they are fully seated.
• Check the cover and handle are down all the way.
• Bag material may have a leak. To test, seal the bag with some air in it, submerge
in water, and apply pressure. Bubbles indicate a leak. Reseal or use another bag.
VACUUM SEALER NOT SEALING BAG PROPERLY
• Should sealing element overheat and melt the bag, it may be necessary to lift
the top cover and allow the sealing element to cool for several minutes.
BAG LOSES VACUUM AFTER BEING SEALED
• Leaks along the seal can be caused by wrinkles, crumbs, grease or liquids. Wipe
the top inside of the bag and smooth it out along the sealing element
before sealing.
• Check the bag for a puncture or hole which may have released the vacuum.
