Care
and Cleaning of your Vacuum Sealer
To Clean Appliance:
Remove Power Cord from electrical outlet. Do not immerse in liquid.
Check Gaskets and around Drip Tray to make sure they are free from
food materials. Wipe off Gasket with warm soapy cloth if needed.
Upper and Lower Gaskets may be removed for cleaning. Clean with
warm, soapy water.
The Removable Drip Tray makes cleanup easy when small amounts of
liquids are pulled into the Vacuum Channel during vacuum process.
Empty Drip Tray after each use. Wash in warm soapy water or place
on top rack of dishwasher. Dry thoroughly before re-inserting into
the appliance.
To Store Appliance:
Clean unit thoroughly as detailed above.
After the unit has been cleaned and allowed to fully dry, close lid
and slide the Lock Latch into the OPEN (top) position. This setting
prevents any undue pressure from being applied to the internal
sealing gaskets of the unit.
Always leave lid latch in OPEN position when not in use. Never store
lid in OPERATE position as gaskets may become compressed and the
unit may not function properly.
