Ensure the gaskets (foam rubber seal, sealing gasket) are

clean and no foreign substances stick on the sealing band.
4.

Place one open end of the foil on the sealing strip (picture c).

The end of the foil does not need to extend over the black foam

rubber seal into the vacuum chamber, because there is no need

to operate the vacuum pump for sealing the bottom of the bag.
note: To get an air-tight seam, the foil must be completely clean

and dry, and lay smooth and unlined on the sealing gasket.
5.

Close the lid and press the lid down on the marked lines (pic-

ture D). Ensure that the lid is securely locked and the lock has

engaged at both sides (you will hear a clicking sound when the

lid snaps shut). The appliance is now ready for use.
6.

Press the »MANUAL SEAL« button (picture e). The appliance

starts to operate, and the blue sealing indicator illuminates.

When the bottom of the bag is sealed the indicator switches off.
tiP: If the appliance does not operste pressing the button, check

whether the lid is closed properly.
7.

Press the lock release buttons on both sides of the appliance

to open the lid (picture F) and take out the foil.
imPortant: The sealing band could get hot after repeated

sealing processes. Do not touch the sealing band with an parts

of your body or heat-sensitive items immediately after sealing.
8.

Check if the seam is even and smooth. The bottom of the bag

is sealed properly, if there is a smooth line with no interruption

and crease on the seam. If in doubt, just place another seal near

the first one.

how to Vacuum-Pack in a Plastic Bag/Foil

After sealing the bottom of the bag and ensuring that the seam is air-tight, you can fill the

bag. For this, observe the hints and tips, given in section ›Tipps for Best Results‹.
tiP: Do not overload the plastic bag. Leave approximately 8 cm of free space above the

food. Otherwise the appliance cannot generate a vacuum. Pre-freeze moist food before

vacuum packing. This way no liquids can get sucked into the appliance and the food will

not get squashed.
