Important Tips

1. Vacuum packaging is NOT a substitute for the
heat process of canning. Perishables still need
to be refrigerated or frozen.
2. For best results, use only with FoodSaver Bags,
®
Containers and Accessories.
3. During the vacuum packaging process, small
amounts of liquids, crumbs or food particles can
be inadvertently pulled into the Vacuum Channel.
Empty the Drip Tray after each use.
4. Avoid overfilling, always leave at least 4 inches
(10.16 centimeters) of bag material between bag
contents and top of bag. This allows room for the
bag material to cinch tightly against the food and
prevents the bag from pulling out of the vacuum
channel during the sealing process. Then leave at
least one additional inch of bag material for each
time you plan to reuse bag.
5. Do not create your own side seams for a
FoodSaver ® Bag. These bags are manufactured
with a special side seam, which is sealed all the
way to the outer edge.
6. To prevent wrinkles in the seal when vacuum
packaging bulky items, gently stretch bag flat
while inserting bag into vacuum channel and
continue to hold bag until vacuum pump starts.

7. When you are vacuum packaging items with sharp
edges (dry spaghetti, silverware, etc.), protect bag
from punctures by wrapping item in soft cushioning
material, such as a paper towel. You may want to
use a canister or Mason jar instead of a bag.
8. When using accessories, remember to leave one
inch of space at top of canister or container.
9. Pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before
vacuum packaging for best results. See
"Guidelines for Vacuum Packaging" section.
10. 120v Appliances Only: The FoodSaver ® appliance
has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). To reduce risk of electrical shock, this plug
is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not modify plug in any way.
11. Caution: A short power cord is provided to
reduce risks from entanglement or tripping over
a longer cord. An extension cord may be used
when marked electrical rating is no less than
electrical rating of this appliance. All cords should
not drape over counter or tabletop where cords
can be tripped over or pulled on unintentionally,
especially by children.
