Vacuum packaging in a bag
G
1. Fill the food product or objects that you want
to store in a bag intended for this purpose.
The open end of the bag must be clean, free
from dust, dry and smooth.
2. Open the cover and place the open end of the
bag onto the sealing strip. Make sure that the
bag reaches into the vacuum chamber.
3. Close the cover on both sides until you hear it
engaging. Use both hands for this purpose.
4. Press the AUTO button. The bag is automatic-
ally vacuumed and then sealed (the indicator
lamp of the AUTO and SEAL button illumin-
ate).
The procedure is ended when the vacuum
pump switches off and the indicator lamp
goes out.
Note:
Pressing the PULSE button allows the
vacuuming procedure to also be initiated
and controlled manually; this allows
pressure-sensitive food products to be
particularly carefully.
Then the sealing procedure is initiated by
pressing the SEAL button.
During the vacuum packaging, a very high
pressure is generated in the bag. Observe the
procedure in order to avoid the food products
being sealed from being squashed by the
pressure. You can interrupt the automatic
vacuuming procedure using the AUTO button
at any time and initiate the sealing earlier.
5. Press both unlocking buttons at the same
time in order to open the appliance cover and
remove the bag.
Check the sealed bag; it should have a simple
sealing seam and not have any folds other-
wise the sealing seam is not air tight.
