Operating the appliance

CAUTION: Hazard of injury and burns! The sealing bar is getting
hot during use. Do not touch the sealing bar, when in use!

Important notes for operation

• The appliance is suitable for long term operation without intermediate pauses. However we
recommend to let the appliance cool down for several minutes after 25 consecutive cycles.
• Make sure there is enough space in front of the appliance for the bag with the food to be vacuum-sealed.
• Bags and rolls are available with different widths. Opt for the bag size suitable to accommodate the food
to be preserved. Make sure that the bag is at least 8 cm longer than the food to be vacuum-sealed.
• Fill the bag avoiding wrinkles or tensing the surface. The area of the sealing seam must be clean, dry and
free from food at the inside and outside.
• For the vacuum sealing of pressure-sensitive food, we recommend to use the function "manual vacuuming
and sealing" (see point B).
