Note:
If the desired vacuum is not reached, the vacuum system will shut down automa-
tically after 30 seconds without entering the sealing process. In this case, check
whether the bag has a leak, or the bag was not placed properly. The appliance
is not intended for continuous operation. Please wait for approximately 30 seconds
with the lid open, before starting a new sealing process.
8. If there are any liquids (e.g. condensate) or parts of the food in the dripping tray,
clean the dripping tray, before starting the vacuum pump again. For this, you can
take out the dripping tray.
9. Unplug the appliance, when you have finished operating.

HOW TO VACUUM SEAL A CONTAINER

Suitable vacuum containers are available on the market.
WARNING:
check the container carefully for any damage (cracks or scratches) before vacuum
sealing. Damaged or unsuitable container (glass or plastic) cannot resist the pressure
and could implode, causing severe injuries. Do not consume any food that has been
in a damaged container. Splinters in the food could cause severe injuries.

5. Press the Vacuum Seal button (picture H). The vacuum
pump indicator illuminates in green. The vacuum pump is
audibly working and the foil clings to the content of the
bag. As soon as the vacuum procedure is finished the
sealing indicator illuminates in red. The complete process
is finished as soon as both indicators switch off.
6. Press the lock release buttons on either side of the appli-
ance to open the lid and take out the bag (picture I).
IMPORTANT: The sealing band could get hot after repea-
ted sealing processes. Do not touch the sealing band with
any parts of your body or heat-sensitive items immediately
after sealing.
7. Check if the seam is even and smooth. The bag is sealed
properly, if there is a smooth line with no interruption and
crease on the seam. If in doubt, just place another seal
near the first one. For this, use the Seal Only button.
Only use special containers suited for vacuum packing. Always
