into electrical outlet.
2. Examine power cord for any damages.
3. See if electrical outlet is working by plugging in
another appliance.
Make sure the lid is closed and the latch is in the

set to the correct mode. Refer to your QuickStart
Guide for instructions.
6. Make sure bag is placed correctly inside Vacuum

Note:
becomes too hot.
To keep your appliance from overheating:
Wait at least 20 seconds for appliance to cool down
before you begin vacuum packaging another item.
Keep lid open before vacuum packaging.
Air is still in the bag:
1. Make sure open end of bag is resting entirely
inside Vacuum Channel. If edge of bag is beyond
Vacuum Channel, bag will not seal properly.
Examine bag for leaks. To see if your bag has a
2.
leak, seal bag with air, submerge it into water and
apply pressure. Bubbles indicate a leak. Use a new
bag if bubbles appear.

If you are using a custom-sized FoodSaver
3.
check seal of bag. A wrinkle in the bag along the
seal may cause leakage and allow air to re-enter.
Just cut bag and reseal.
4. Do not attempt to make your own side seams for
a FoodSaver TM Bag. The bags are manufactured
with special side seams, which are sealed all the
way to the outer edge. Making your own side
seams may cause leakage and allow air to re-enter.

Troubleshooting & Plug Fitting
Air was removed from the bag, but now
air has re-entered:
Examine seal of bag. A wrinkle along the seal may
1.
cause leakage and allow air to enter. Simply cut
bag and reseal.
Sometimes moisture or food material (such as
2.
juices, grease, crumbs, powders, etc.) along seal
prevents bag from sealing properly. Cut bag open,
wipe top inside of bag and reseal. See pages 4-5
for guidelines for specific foods.
3. If you are vacuum packaging sharp food items,
bag may have been punctured. Use a new bag if
there is a hole. Cover sharp food items with a
soft cushioning material, such as a paper towel,
and reseal.
If you are still experiencing difficulty with air in
4.
your bag, fermentation or the release of natural
gases from inside the foods may have occurred.
When this happens, food may have begun to spoil
and should be discarded.
The bag melts:
If your bag melts, Sealing Strip may have become too
hot. Always wait at least 20 seconds for appliance to
cool down before you vacuum package another item.
