Cleaning and Maintenance
Vacuum Sealer:
1. Unplug the unit before cleaning.
2. Clean the Vacuum Sealer with a damp sponge. Do not immerse in water.
3. Use a mild dish soap. Do not use abrasive cleaners as they will scratch the surface
.
4. Dry thoroughly, before using. When storing do not lock cover to prevent
deformation of the gaskets.
Bags
1. The bagging material can be washed in warm water with dish washing soap.
Rinse the bags well and allow to dry thoroughly before re-using.
2. Bags can be washed on the top rack in your dishwasher by turning the bags
inside out. Stand the bag up so the water can get inside the bag. Dry thoroughly
before next use.
Note: Bags used to store greasy foods should not be re-used.
Storing Your Vacuum Sealer
1. Keep the unit in a at and safe place, out of the reach of children.
2. Make sure the lid of appliance is not locked when not in use and during
storage to prevent deformation of the gaskets.
Vacuum Sealing Tips
Do not overll the bags; leave enough space at the open end of the bag so that the
bag can be placed on the vacuum chamber more positively.
Do not wet the open end of the bag. Wet bags may be difcult to melt and seal tightly.
Clean and straighten the open end of the bag before sealing. Make sure nothing is
left on the open area of the bag, no wrinkle or creases should appear on the open
panel, foreign objects or creased bags may cause difculty to seal tightly.
Do not vacuum package objects with sharp points like sh bones and hard shells.
Sharp points may penetrate and tear the bag.
Let the vacuum sealer rest for 1 minute, after each sealing or vacuum sealing.
During bag vacuum packaging process, small amounts of liquids, crumbs or food
particles can be inadvertently pulled into vacuum chamber clogging the pump and
damaging your appliance. To avoid this: freeze moist and juicy foods rst before
sealing bags or place a folded paper towel near the inside top of the bag. For
powdery or ne-grained foods, avoid overlling bags.
Pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before vacuum packing for best results.
Liquids need to be cooled before vacuum packing. Hot liquids will bubble up and
over the top of the bag or jar when vacuum packed. Note: A jar attachment is
necessary for sealing jars.
Store perishable foods in the freezer or refrigerator. Vacuum packing extends the
shelf life of foods, but does not preserve them.
Pantry items such as our, rice, mixes for cakes and pancakes, all stay fresher longer when
vacuum packed. Nuts and condiments maintain their avor while rancidity is kept out.
Keep camping supplies such as matches, rst aid kits and clothing, clean and dry.
Keep ares for auto emergencies ready. Keep silver and collectibles untarnished.
Fill a bag about 2/3 full with water, seal the end (don’t vacuum). Freeze the bag
and use for ice in the cooler, or ice packs for sports injuries.
