set up the unit for use

1. Place the vacuum sealer on a flat, dry surface, such as a counter or bench top, attach the power cord (lead) to the back of the sealer, and plug it into a power outlet.
2. The green Indicator Lights on the control panel should illuminate.

prepare food pouches for sealing

1. Prepare the pouch by folding back the top 2 inches (5 cm) before filling, to keep the sealing surface clean.
2. Fill the pouch up to about threefourths (75%) of its capacity with the food you wish to seal. Do not overfill.
3. Make sure the sealing surface is clean and free of liquid, oils, or debris before unfolding the top of the pouch for sealing.

important tips for preparing pouches

• Sharp edges and points, such as bones and shells, can puncture the pouch during air extraction and prevent proper sealing. Cover the sharp areas with soft food, such as fresh herbs or food-safe plastic wrap (cling film) to protect the pouch from puncture.
• When vacuum sealing wet or moist foods, such as fresh meat or washed vegetables, drain them well and pat dry with paper towels (kitchen paper) before putting them in the pouch.
  Excess liquid over 1½ tablespoons (22.5 ml) in foods can be pulled into the vacuum chamber or onto the sealing surface of the pouch during suction air extraction. Liquid pulled into the pump can damage it.
• This suction vacuum sealer is not designed to vacuum seal pure liquids or liquid-rich foods. We recommend using SousVide Supreme Zip Cooking Pouches for sealing liquids.

• Depending on usage level, the Foam Gaskets (which are compressed during each vacuum sealing operation) can become worn over time. With proper care and normal usage (up to 5 times a day) they should last two to four years.
