BEFORE ATTEMPTING VACUUM PACKAGING BE SURE THAT THE
VACUUM SEALER IS SET UP IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL OF THE SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS LISTED IN THIS BOOKLET.
1. Place the items to be vacuum sealed
into a vacuum bag. Allow at least 2” (5 cm)
at the open end of the bag in order to create
enough seal space. Be sure not to cover the
Vacuum Port (Figure 9).
2. Close the Vacuum Lid while holding the
bag in place. Press down on both sides of the
lid to lock the lid in place. You will hear each
side “click” when it is secured. NOTE: If both
sides are NOT securely locked, the lid will NOT
release automatically. To resolve this issue,
press down on both sides of the lid twice to
release the locks.
3. Press and release the Start Button.
The 2-Piston Vacuum Pump will begin
removing air from the bag while the LED
Vacuum Window begins to count up. You
may need to apply light pressure to the
Vacuum Lid during the count-up process.
The LED Vacuum Window will count up
starting at the number “1” and going thru
to the number “9”, before automatically
engaging the bag sealing process. These
numbers represent stages, not seconds.
4. Once the LED Vacuum Window displays the number “9”, the sealing process
will begin by counting down from your chosen setting to “0” on the LED Seal
Window.
5. Once the LED Seal Window has reached “0”, the Vacuum Sealer will
automatically stop the 2-Piston Vacuum Pump and release the vacuum pressure
moments later. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PULL THE VACUUM LID OPEN BEFORE
THE VACUUM HAS BEEN RELEASED, SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE SEALING
BAR WILL RESULT.
