How to Make a Custom-Made Bag with FoodSaver Rolls
When using FoodSaver Rolls you first need to make a bag. If you
are using ready-made FoodSaver bags, go to page 10.
Place the appliance on a flat, dry surface and plug the power cord
1
into a standard electrical outlet.
Set the Sealing Adjustment Switch to "3."
2
Open the lid and place the FoodSaver Roll into the roll storage
3
compartment. Make sure the roll is centered so that an even seal
will be achieved.
Lay the item(s) you want to vacuum package near the appliance so
4
you can see where to cut the bag material. Pull the end of the roll
out to the desired length. IMPORTANT: Leave at least 3 extra
inches at one end of the bag and more if you want to reseal
the bag (one inch per reseal).
Close the lid.

Press and release the Manual Seal
6
Button. The lid will be automati-
cally pulled down into the sealing
position. The red sealing light will
come on indicating the bag is
being sealed.
While the bag is sealing, slide the
7
bag cutter completely across the
sliding channel to cut the bag.
Make sure you return the bag
cutter to the extreme left or right
side of the sliding channel. Note:
You may have to push down and apply extra pressure to make
sure the bag has been cut.
At the end of the sealing process, the red sealing light will blink,
8
indicating the machine is re-programming itself for the next
function. The lid will open slightly returning to the ready position.
Do not lift the lid until the red sealing light stops blinking
and the lid has reset to the ready position.
Lift up the lid and remove the bag.
9
Make sure the extra bag material is rolled back into the roll
10
storage compartment and is not down in the Vacuum Channel.
NOTE: Let the appliance cool down for at least 20 seconds before
using it again.
