If any problems occur during operation, you will find solutions in the following table.
Problem
the easy solution
The appliance does not operate
when trying to start it
• Check, whether the appliance is properly connected
to the power outlet and check if the power outlet does
work. Therefore connect another appliance to the
same power outlet.
• Check, whether the power cord and the plug are
defective. Contact an authorised service centre, if they
are defective.
• The appliance shuts off automatically to prevent
overheating. Let the appliance cool down for 20
minutes and try again.
The appliance does not gene
rate a full vacuum
• Check, whether:
- the bag is in proper position (see: ›Sealing the
Plastic Bag‹) and whether the end of the bag
extends into the vacuum chamber.
- the gaskets are clean and in perfect condition.
- little pieces of food are inside the plastic bag
on the section of the sealing band.
- the bag is leaking. You can proof this by
dipping the sealed bag into water. In case of
leaking, air would escape when you put slight
pressure on the bag. Seal the bag again or use
a new one.
The appliance does not seal the
plastic bag properly
• Check, whether:
- the bag is in proper position (see: ›Sealing the
Plastic Bag‹) and whether the end of the bag
extends into the vacuum chamber.
- something sticks to the sealing band or gaskets.
- little pieces of food are inside the plastic bag
on the section of the sealing band.
• In case of an overheated sealing band the bag
would melt. Open the appliance and let it cool
down for a few minutes.
• In the event of overheating the appliance will
automatically shut down (thermal cut out) to pre-
vent damage. Let the appliance cool down for 20
minutes and try again.
