IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Correct use

Danger of burning. The sealing bar becomes hot during operation.
The weld seam of the vacuum-sealing bag is also heated to a very
high temperature during the sealing process. Do not touch the seal-
ing bar or the seam immediately after the vacuum-sealing process.

Fire hazard. Do not store any easily flammable substances and
materials in the vicinity of the drawer.

The maximum load capacity of the telescopic drawer rails is
55 lbs (15 kg). If you overload the drawer or lean/stand on it when it
is open, you will damage the rails.

Damage to the glass lid can cause implosion. Do not place any
objects on the glass lid. Ensure that the glass lid cannot sustain
damage from falling objects.

Do not use the drawer or the glass lid as a work surface, a chop-
ping surface, or a shelf.

The drawer must be installed so that it can be pulled out com-
pletely and there is sufficient room to open the glass lid. This en-
sures that you can see into the vacuum chamber and avoid touching
the sealing bar and weld seam and burning yourself.

When vacuuming liquids, bubbles can form at lower temperatures
which will cause an impression of boiling. Steam can escape, which
can cause the drawer to malfunction.
For this reason, only vacuum-seal food (liquid or solid) when it has
cooled. Follow the vacuuming process carefully and seal the bag
early if necessary.

If liquid gets into the drawer and the vacuum pump air intake
valve, this can result in damage to the vacuum pump.

Moisture in food or drinks can cause corrosion damage in the
drawer. Do not use the drawer to store food or drinks.

Miele does not permit vacuum-sealing of glass containers.
