Vacuum Sealing
1. After filling the bag and making sure that the sealing area is
free from liquid or food particles, place the open end of the
bag over the sealing wire as if preparing to seal the bag.
Ensure that the central air-extractor nozzle is positioned inside
the bag opening.

indicator will light up. When the 'seal' light goes out, the bag
is sealed

working mechanism and cause damage.
