è The vacuum packer will notify the user of the need to perform a self-cleaning process after
every 200 cycles. This will happen when the appliance is connected to the electricity grid
or it is turned on from the "OFF" rest mode. If the lid is lowered during this time, the
"AUTOCLEAN OIL" process will begin automatically.
If you do not wish to perform the AUTOCLEAN process when the notification appears, you
can press the direction buttons (right and left) to go through the menu as normal and
perform the cycle you prefer.
You can run an AUTOCLEAN cycle whenever you wish by manually entering AUTOCLEAN mode
from the operating mode selection menu. The maximum duration of AUTO-CLEAN mode is 20
minutes, although you can stop it by pressing the centre button.

Packing
To pack a product, the bag (appropriate for vacuum packing) must be placed correctly on the
polyethylene bar with the entire width of the bag above the sealing area. Make sure that there
is no product on the sealing bar. Then lower the lid of the vacuum packer. It is important to
remember that a packing process cannot begin while you are configuring the manual mode
parameters.
NOTE: We recommend using the safety latch during each vacuum packing cycle.
At this stage, the active mode or program will start up and the indicators of the processes to
be carried out will light up continuously (vacuum, extra vacuum, gas injection, sealing,
progressive air entry, repetitions):
The vacuum process (VACUUM) extracts the air from the chamber and the central
-
display shows the vacuum percentage up to that moment.
The extra vacuum procedure (EXTRA VACUUM) keeps the vacuum pump working for
-
the number of seconds programmed. This extracts the air from very porous foods. The
centre display shows the number of seconds passed.
-
Gas injection (GAS) fills the chamber with the gas percentage specified in the program.
The percentage of gas inserted is also shown on the centre display.
Sealing consists of three phases. The first is the lifting of the cylinders. During this
-
phase, the centre display shows the set sealing time in seconds. The second is the
heating of the heating element. At this stage the SEAL display will progressively
decrease from the previous value. The third stage, with a duration of five seconds, is
the cooling of the bag, and the SEAL display increases progressively to 5.0 s at this
stage.
The last stage is the restoration of atmospheric pressure (AIR). The display will show
-
the vacuum percentage in the chamber decreasing. The atmospheric pressure
restoration type (SOFT or FAST) will also light up during this stage.
