TROUBLESHOOTING

Q: Nothing happens when the Power Button is pressed!

1. Make sure that the

Power Cord is not damaged

in any way.

2. Be sure that the female end of the

Power Cord

is plugged completely into the

Power Supply Port

of the

Vacuum Sealer, and that the male end of the

Power Cord is firmly plugged into the wall outlet

(Figure 11).
3. If the

Vacuum Sealer is properly plugged in,

and the

Power Button still does not work, check

the

Fuse, located above the Power Supply Port,

on the right side of the

Vacuum Sealer. Twist the

Fuse Holder off, then look at the clear tube to see

if the

Fuse is darkened. If the Fuse is darkened,

it will need to be replaced with a standard 8-Amp

Fuse.
4. If the

Fuse does not need to be replaced, you will need to be sure the electrical

wall outlet is properly working. Plug in another appliance to see if that appliance

works from the wall outlet. USE ONLY TIME-DELAY FUSES.

Q: My Vacuum Sealer shut off and will not start again.

1. The

Thermal Overload Protector may have been activated. In this case,

allow the

Vacuum Sealer to cool by opening the Vacuum Lid for approximately 20

minutes. Be sure to leave the

Vacuum Lid open between bag sealing.

2. Be sure that the female end of the

Power Cord is plugged completely into the

Power Supply Port of the Vacuum Sealer, and that the male end of the Power Cord

is firmly plugged into the wall outlet.
3. If the

Vacuum Sealer is properly plugged in, and the Power Button still does not

work, check the

Fuse, located above the Power Supply Port, on the right side of

the

Vacuum Sealer. Twist the Fuse Cap off, then look at the clear tube to see if the

Fuse is darkened. If the Fuse is darkened, it will need to be replaced with a standard

8-Amp Fuse (Figure F).

4. If the

Fuse does not need to be replaced, you will need to be sure the electrical

wall outlet is properly working. Plug in another appliance to see if that appliance

works from the wall outlet.
