∙ The sealing process is indicated by the
green lamp. Once the lamp goes off, the
bag can be removed.
∙ Turn the roll slightly back so that the
suction nozzle and the sealing wires are
accessible.
∙ The bag may be filled up to ¾ of its
capacity. If any liquids are to be sealed
in, the bag should only be filled to half
capacity. Do not attempt to remove
liquid matter through the suction nozzle.
∙ The upper edge of the bag, as well as
the areas to be sealed, should be clean
and dry.
∙ Position the bag in the unit in such a
way, that the suction nozzle reaches
well into the bag.
∙ Make sure that the bag is smooth and
free of any wrinkles or folds in the areas
to be sealed.
∙ Close the cover and start the suction
process by pressing down on the left
side of the cover.
∙ The suction process is indicated by the
red lamp.
∙ During suction, the bag should be lifted
up and pulled slightly outwards. In
this way, small air pockets are formed
towards the suction nozzle which help
prevent the surfaces of the bag from
being pressed together.
∙ After suction is completed, the
sealing process may be started by
simultaneously pressing both sides of
the cover firmly down.
∙ Once the green indicator lamp goes off,
the bag may be removed from the unit.
