Connect the mains cable to the Heat Sealer and then to the power main.
Switch on the mains switch on the side of the unit. If electricity is being supplied to the unit, the
green power light will illuminate. If the heater within the unit is receiving power, the amber light
will also illuminate.
When starting from cold, it is preferable to leave the unit on for 20 to 25 minutes to settle down
before carrying out the first sealing operation. On initial power-up, both green and amber lights
will appear. After approximately 10 – 15 minutes the amber light will go out.
Do not use the Heat Sealer until 20 – 25 minutes have elapsed from power-up. By this time the
amber lamp will flicker on and off constantly. This flickering on and off is the normal behaviour
exhibited by the amber lamp indicating correct working temperature has been reached. The unit
is now up to temperature and ready for sealing.
