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 Ports (Figure 10).
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. While monitoring the vacuum bag,
press and release START Button. The
2-Piston Vacuum Pump will begin
removing air from the bag. When the
desired level of air has been evacuated
from the bag, press and release the
Manual Bag Seal Button. It will start the
sealing bag process.
Note: You may need to apply light
pressure to the Vacuum Lid during this
process.
Note: It requires some vacuum pressure in the bag to get good seal for the bag.
4. Once the LED Seal Window has reached “0”, the Vacuum Sealer will
automatically stop the 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.
