- Do not place on or near wet surfaces, or heat sources such as a hot gas or electric burner, or heated oven. Always use appliance on a dry, stable, level surface.
- Extreme caution must be used when sealing bags or moving an appliance containing hot liquids.
- Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into outlet (for appliances with detachable cords).
- Use appliance only for its intended use.
- Vacuum packaging is not a substitute for the heat process of canning. Perishables still need to be refrigerated or frozen.
Important Tips
- Vacuum sealing is NOT a substitute for the heat process of canning. Perishables still need to be refrigerated or frozen.
- For best results, use only with FoodSaver® Bags, Rolls, Containers and Accessories.
- During the vacuum sealing process, small amounts of liquids, crumbs or food particles can be inadvertently pulled into the Vacuum Channel. Empty the Drip Tray after each use.
- Avoid overfilling, always leave at least 3 inches of bag material between bag contents and top of bag. This allows room for the bag material to cinch tightly against the food and prevents the bag from pulling out of the Vacuum Channel during the sealing process. Then leave at least one additional inch of bag material for each time you plan to reuse bag.
- Do not create your own side seams for a FoodSaver® Bag. These bags are manufactured with a special side seam, which is sealed all the way to the outer edge.
- To prevent wrinkles in the seal when vacuum sealing bulky items, gently stretch bag flat while inserting bag into Vacuum Channel and continue to hold bag until vacuum pump starts.
- When you are vacuum sealing items with sharp edges (dry spaghetti, silverware, etc.), protect bag from punctures by wrapping item in soft cushioning material, such as a paper towel. You may want to use a canister or Mason jar instead of a bag.
- When using accessories, remember to leave one inch of space at top of canister or container.
- Pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before vacuum sealing for best results.
- Wait 20 seconds between seals to allow appliance to cool.
- Never store lid in OPERATE position as gaskets may become compressed.
