IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For your own safety, always follow these basic precautions when using a
FoodSaver
®
appliance:
1. Read the Owner’s Manual carefully for operating instructions. Read all
instructions in this manual before use.
2. When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions are required to
always be followed, including the following:
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
DANGER – To reduce the risk of electric shock:
1. Do not reach for an appliance that has fallen into water. Unplug
immediately from receptacle.
2. Do not use while bathing or in a shower.
3. Do not place or store appliance where it is able to fall or be pulled into a
tub or sink. Do not place in or drop into water or other liquid.
4. Always unplug this appliance from the electrical outlet immediately after
using.
5. Unplug this appliance before cleaning.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock:
1. Do not use appliance on wet surfaces or outdoors.
2. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse any part of appliance,
power cord or plug in water or other liquid. Unplug from outlet when not
in use and before cleaning.
3. To disconnect, unplug power cord from electrical outlet. Do not
disconnect by pulling on cord.
4. Do not operate appliance with a damaged power cord or plug. Do not
operate appliance if it malfunctions or is in any way, damaged.
For details, contact Consumer Services at number listed below.
1. Use appliance only for its intended use.
2. Closely supervise children when using any electrical appliance. Do not
allow appliance to be used as a toy.
3. For adult use only.
4. Caution: A short power cord is provided to reduce risks from entanglement
or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used when
marked electrical rating is no less than electrical rating of this appliance.
5. No cords should drape over counter or tabletop, where cords can be
tripped over or pulled on unintentionally, especially by children.

6. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or heated oven.
Extreme caution must be used when moving products containing hot
liquids.
7. Lid closes down automatically with force. Do not obstruct the lid from
closing. Do not manually force the lid to close.
8.
Do not put fingers or any foreign objects inside of Vacuum View
Window while vacuum sealing.
Important Tips
1. Vacuum sealing is NOT a substitute for the heat process of canning.
Perishables still need to be refrigerated or frozen.
2. For best results, use only with FoodSaver
®
Bags, Rolls, Containers and
Accessories.
3. 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.
4. Avoid overfilling; always leave at least 3 inches (7.62 cm) 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 (2.54 cm) of bag material for each
time you plan to reuse bag.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. 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
FoodSaver
®
Container or Mason jar instead of a FoodSaver
®
Bag.
8. When using accessories, remember to leave one inch (2.54 cm) of
space at top.
9. Pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before vacuum sealing for best
results. (See “Guidelines” for food storage safety, pg 15-20.)
10. Wait 20 seconds between seals to allow appliance to cool.
11. Never store lid in Operate position as gaskets may become compressed.

Consumer Service: US: 1-877-777-8042 CA: 1-877-804-5383 MX: +52 55 5366 0800
POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is provided
to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords
are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a long
detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:
a. The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or
extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance;
b. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounding type 3-wire cord; and
c. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over unintentionally.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk
of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in
any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels
warm do not use that outlet.

Vacuum Sealing and Food Safety
Guidelines
The vacuum sealing process extends the life of foods by removing most of the air from the sealed container,
thereby reducing oxidation, which affects nutritional value, flavor and overall quality. Removing air can also
inhibit growth of microorganisms, which can cause problems under certain conditions:
Mold – Easily identified by its fuzzy characteristic. Mold cannot grow in a low oxygen environment; therefore
vacuum sealing can slow the growth of mold.
Yeast – Results in fermentation, which can be identified by smell and taste. Yeast needs water, sugar and a
moderate temperature to grow. It can also survive with or without air. Slowing the growth of yeast requires
refrigeration, while freezing stops it completely.
Bacteria – Results in an unpleasant odor, discoloration and/or soft or slimy texture. Under the right
conditions, anaerobic bacteria such as Clostridium Botulinum (the organism that causes Botulism) can grow
without air and sometimes cannot be detected by smell or taste. Although it is extremely rare, it can be very
dangerous.
To preserve foods safely, it is critical that you maintain low temperatures. You can significantly reduce the
growth of microorganisms at temperatures of 40°F (4°C) or below. Freezing at 0°F (-17°C) does not kill
microorganisms, but stops them from growing. For long-term storage, always freeze perishable foods that
have been vacuum sealed, and keep refrigerated after thawing.
It is important to note that vacuum sealing is NOT a substitute for canning and it cannot reverse the
deterioration of foods. It can only slow down the changes in quality. It is difficult to predict how long foods
will retain their top-quality flavor, appearance or texture because it depends on age and condition of the food
on the day it was vacuum sealed.
IMPORTANT:
Vacuum sealing is NOT a substitute for refrigeration or freezing.
Any perishable foods that require refrigeration must still be refrigerated or frozen after vacuum sealing.

GUIDELINES
Food Preparation & Reheating Tips
Thawing and Reheating
Vacuum-Sealed Foods
Always thaw foods in either refrigerator or microwave — do not thaw perishable foods at room
temperature.
To reheat foods in a microwave in a FoodSaver
®
Bag, always cut corner of the bag before placing
it on a microwave-safe dish. However, to avoid hot spots, do not reheat bone-in meat or greasy
foods in microwave within a FoodSaver
®
Bag. You can also reheat foods in FoodSaver
®
Bags by
placing them in water at a low simmer below 170°F (75°C).
Preparation Guidelines
for Meat and Fish:
For best results, pre-freeze meat and fish for 1-2 hours before vacuum sealing in a FoodSaver
®
Bag. This helps retain the juice and shape, and guarantees a better seal.
If it’s not possible to pre-freeze, place a folded paper towel between meat or fish and top of
bag, but below seal area. Leave paper towel in bag to absorb excess moisture and juices during
vacuum sealing process.
NOTE: Beef may appear darker after vacuum sealing due to the removal of oxygen. This is not an
indication of spoilage.
Preparation Guidelines for Hard Cheeses:
To keep cheese fresh, vacuum seal it after each use. Make your FoodSaver
®
Bag extra long,
allowing one inch (2.54 cm) of bag material for each time you plan to open and reseal in
addition to the three inches (7.62 cm) of extra space you normally leave between contents and
seal edge. Simply cut sealed edge and remove cheese. When you’re ready to reseal the cheese,
just drop it in bag and reseal.
IMPORTANT:
Due to the risk of anaerobic bacteria, soft cheeses should never be vacuum sealed.

GUIDELINES
Food Preparation & Reheating Tips
IMPORTANT:
Due to the risk of anaerobic bacteria, fresh mushrooms, onions and garlic should never be
vacuum sealed.
Preparation Guidelines
for Vegetables:
Vegetables need to be blanched before vacuum sealing. This process stops the enzyme action
that could lead to loss of flavor, color and texture.
To blanch vegetables, place them in boiling water or in the microwave until they are cooked, but
still crisp. Blanching times range from 1 to 2 minutes for leafy greens and peas; 3 to 4 minutes
for snap peas, sliced zucchini or broccoli; 5 minutes for carrots; and 7 to 11 minutes for corn
on the cob. After blanching, immerse vegetables in cold water to stop the cooking process.
Finally, dry vegetables on a towel before vacuum sealing.
NOTE: All vegetables (including broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, turnips)
naturally emit gases during storage. Therefore, after blanching, they must be stored in freezer
only.
When freezing vegetables, it is best to pre-freeze them for 1-2 hours or until solidly frozen.
To freeze vegetables in individual servings, first place on a baking sheet and spread them out
so they are not touching. This prevents them from freezing together in a block. Once they are
frozen, remove from baking sheet and vacuum seal vegetables in a FoodSaver
®
Bag. After they
have been vacuum sealed, return them to the freezer.
Preparation Guidelines
for Leafy Vegetables:
For best results, use a FoodSaver
®
Container to store leafy vegetables. First wash the vegetables,
and then dry with a towel or salad spinner. After they are dried, put them in a container and
vacuum seal as normal. Store in refrigerator.

GUIDELINES
IMPORTANT:
When vacuum sealing apples, they must be sliced, and put a small bit of lemon juice on
the slices to prevent them from browning.
Because of their natural ripening, bananas may actually decay faster under a vacuum seal.
Food Preparation & Reheating Tips
Preparation Guidelines for Fruits:
When freezing soft fruits or berries, it is best to pre-freeze them for 1-2 hours or until solidly
frozen. To freeze fruit in individual servings, first place on a baking sheet and spread them out
so they are not touching. This prevents them from freezing together in a block. Once they are
frozen, remove from baking sheet and vacuum seal fruit in a FoodSaver
®
Bag. After they have
been vacuum sealed, return them to the freezer.
You can vacuum seal portions for baking or in your favorite combinations for easy fruit salad all
year round. If storing in the refrigerator, we recommend using a FoodSaver
®
Container.
Preparation Guidelines
for Baked Goods:
To vacuum seal soft or airy baked goods, we recommend using a FoodSaver
®
Container so they
will hold their shape. If using a bag, pre-freeze for 1-2 hours or until solidly frozen. To save time,
make cookie dough, pie shells, whole pies, or mix dry ingredients in advance and vacuum seal
for later use.
Preparation Guidelines for
Coffee and Powdery Foods:
To prevent food particles from being drawn into Vacuum Pump, place a coffee filter or paper
towel at top of bag or container before vacuum sealing. You can also place the food in its
original bag inside a FoodSaver
®
Bag to vacuum seal.

Cannot insert bag
into machine
• Make sure there is enough bag material to reach center of Drip Tray. Always
allow three inches (7.62 cm) of extra space to allow the bag to seal tightly
around food contents.
• Gently stretch bag flat while inserting. Insert bag curled down into Drip Tray.
Appliance Lid will
not automatically
close
• If trying to insert bag right after removing or pressing Cancel Button, wait a
few seconds, and then try to insert or re-insert.
• Food or debris may be obstructing the sensors that are used to automatically
close the appliance lid. Fully open up appliance lid and wipe off with a
damp towel the bottom underneath two black tabs on appliance lid. See
Care and Cleaning Section on page 14.
Air was removed
from the bag,
but now air has
re-entered
• Examine the seal. A wrinkle along the seal may cause air to re-enter the bag.
To prevent wrinkles in the seal, gently stretch bag flat while inserting bag
into Drip Tray.
• Sometimes moisture or food material (such as juices, grease, crumbs,
powders, etc.) along seal prevents bag from sealing properly. Cut bag open,
wipe top inside of bag and re-seal.
• If using food with a lot of liquid, use the Liquid mode to prevent excessive
amount of juices or liquid from being sucked out of the bag.
• Sharp food items may have punctured bag. Use a new bag if there is a hole.
Cover sharp food items with a soft cushioning material, such as a paper
towel, and re-seal.
• Fermentation or the release of natural gases from inside the foods may have
occurred. When this happens, food may have begun to spoil and should be
discarded.
• Faulty bag. Bag could be punctured. Try another bag.
Bag melts
• Sealing Strip may have become too hot. Always wait at least 20 seconds
between seals for appliance to cool down before you vacuum seal another item.
• Use FoodSaver
®
brand bags. Our FoodSaver
®
Bags and Rolls are specially.
• designed for FoodSaver
®
units.
Container does not
vacuum
• The FoodSaver
®
Container Lid must be correctly aligned with the Container
opening. (See “Owner’s Manual” provided with accessory.)
• Make sure you press the HandHeld button.
• Make sure Container Lid is closed securely on all 4 sides of the Container.
• Make sure rubber Gasket on inside of Lid is free from food residues.
• Examine Container rim for cracks or scratches and make sure Container
valve is clean.

rouleaux, contenants et accessoires FoodSaver
MD
.
3. Pendant le processus d’emballage sous vide, de petites quantités de
liquide, des miettes ou des particules alimentaires peuvent être attirés
dans la fente d’aspiration. Vider le ramasse-gouttes après chaque
utilisation.
4. Éviter de trop remplir, toujours laisser au moins 7,62 cm (3 pouces) de
matériau du sac entre le contenu du sac et le haut du sac. Cela laisse
de l’espace au matériau du sac pour se resserrer hermétiquement
contre les aliments et empêche le sac de sortir de la fente d’aspiration
pendant le processus de mise sous vide. Laisser ensuite 2,54 cm
(1 pouce) additionnels de matériau de sac pour chaque fois que vous
prévoyez de réutiliser le sac.

5. Ne pas créer vos propres coutures latérales sur un sac FoodSaver
MD
.
Ces sacs sont fabriqués avec une couture latérale spéciale qui est
fermée hermétiquement tout le long du bord extérieur.
6. Pour empêcher que le sac ne se froisse au niveau de la partie
scellée lorsque vous mettez sous vide des articles volumineux, étirer
délicatement le sac de manière à ce qu’il soit bien plat au moment de
l’insérer dans la fente d’aspiration et continuer à le maintenir jusqu’à ce
que la pompe de mise sous vide démarre.
7. Lorsque vous emballez sous vide des articles avec des bouts pointus
(spaghettis secs, coutellerie, etc.), protéger le sac des perforations en
enveloppant l’article dans un matériau de rembourrage doux, comme
un essuie-tout. Il pourrait être conseillé d’utiliser une contenant ou un
bocal Mason à la place d’un sac.
8. Lorsque vous utilisez des accessoires, n’oubliez pas d’en laisser un
pouce (2,54 cm) d’espace en haut.
9. Pour de meilleurs résultats, précongeler les fruits et faire blanchir les
légumes avant de les emballer sous vide. (Consulter les consignes pour
l’emballage sous vide, pages 41-46.)
10. Patienter 20 secondes entre deux opérations de scellement afin de
laisser l’appareil refroidir.
11. Ne jamais ranger l’appareil avec le loquet en position « Operate »
(fonctionnement), car cela comprimerait les joints.

CONSIGNES RELATIVES AU CÂBLE D’ALIMENTATION :
Un câble d’alimentation court (ou câble d’alimentation détachable) est
fourni pour réduire le risque de s’emmêler ou de trébucher avec un
câble plus long. Il est possible d’employer des câbles d’alimentation plus
longs et détachables ou des rallonges si l’on fait attention lors de leur
utilisation. Si une rallonge ou un long câble d’alimentation détachable est
utilisé :
a. La puissance électrique nominale du câble d’alimentation détachable ou
de la rallonge doit être au moins équivalente à la puissance électrique
nominale de l’appareil;
b. Si l’appareil nécessite une mise à la terre, la rallonge doit être un câble de
mise à la terre à trois fils; et
c. le câble plus long doit être disposé de telle sorte qu’il ne pende pas du
comptoir ou du plan de travail, afin qu’il soit impossible, pour des enfants
notamment, de le tirer involontairement ou de trébucher.
Ce produit est doté d’une fiche polarisée (une lame
est plus large que l’autre). Par mesure de sécurité,
pour réduire le risque de choc électrique, cette fiche
est destinée à ne s’insérer dans une prise polarisée
que d’une seule façon. Si la fiche ne s’insère pas
complètement dans la prise de courant, inverser la fiche. Si la fiche
ne s’insère toujours pas, contacter un électricien qualifié. Ne pas
essayer de contourner ce dispositif de sécurité ou de modifier la fiche
de quelque façon que ce soit. Si la fiche semble pouvoir se déplacer
facilement une fois insérée dans la prise CA ou si la prise CA est
chaude, ne pas utiliser celle-ci.

CONSIGNES
Emballage sous vide et sécurité alimentaire
Consignes
Le processus d’emballage sous vide prolonge la conservation des aliments en expulsant presque tout l’air du
contenant scellé, ce qui réduit l’oxydation qui affecte la valeur nutritionnelle, le goût et la qualité générale
des aliments. Retirer l’air peut aussi empêcher la prolifération des microorganismes, qui peuvent être un
problème dans certaines conditions :
Moisissure – Facilement reconnaissable à son aspect un peu mousseux. La moisissure ne peut pas se
développer dans un environnement où il y a peu d’oxygène, voilà pourquoi l’emballage sous vide peut ralentir
la prolifération des moisissures.
Levure – Mène à une fermentation, que l’on reconnaît à l’odeur et au goût. La levure a besoin d’eau, de
sucre et d’une température modérée pour se développer. Elle peut aussi survivre avec ou sans air. La
réfrigération ralentit la prolifération des levures et la congélation l’arrête complètement.
Bactéries – Elles donnent une mauvaise odeur, décolorent le produit et/ou lui donnent une texture molle ou
gluante. Dans les bonnes conditions, les bactéries anaérobies comme le Clostridium botulinum (l’organisme
qui cause le botulisme) peuvent se développer sans air et sont parfois indétectables au goût ou à l’odeur.
Bien que cette bactérie soit assez rare, elle peut être très dangereuse.
Pour conserver les aliments en toute sécurité, il est indispensable de maintenir des températures basses. La
prolifération des microorganismes peut être réduite considérablement à des températures de 4 °C (40 °F) ou
moins. La congélation à -17 °C (0 °F) ne tue pas les microorganismes, mais les empêche de se développer.
Pour une conservation longue durée, toujours congeler les aliments périssables qui ont été emballés sous
vide et les garder réfrigérés après décongélation.
Il est important de noter que l’emballage sous vide ne remplace PAS la mise en conserve et ne peut pas
inverser la détérioration des aliments. Il peut seulement ralentir l’altération de la qualité. Il est difficile de
prédire combien de temps les aliments garderont leur qualité et leur goût, leur apparence ou leur texture, car
tout cela dépend de l’âge et de l’état des aliments au moment où ils ont été emballés sous vide.
IMPORTANT :
L’emballage sous vide n’est PAS un substitut à la réfrigération ou à la congélation. Tout aliment
périssable qui nécessite une réfrigération doit toujours être réfrigéré ou congelé après l’emballage sous
vide.

Conseils en matière de préparation alimentaire et de
réchauffage
Décongeler et réchauffer
les aliments emballés sous vide
Toujours décongeler les aliments au réfrigérateur ou au micro-ondes — ne pas décongeler les
aliments périssables à température ambiante.
Pour réchauffer des aliments au micro-ondes dans un sac FoodSaver
MD
, toujours couper le coin
du sac avant de le placer dans un plat qui va au micro-ondes. Toutefois, pour éviter les points
chauds, ne pas réchauffer, au micro-ondes et dans un sac FoodSaver
MD
, les viandes avec os
ou les aliments riches en graisses. Il est aussi possible de réchauffer des aliments dans un sac
FoodSaver
MD
en les plaçant dans de l’eau à faible ébullition, à moins de 75 °C (170 °F).
Consignes de préparation pour
les viandes et les poissons :
Pour de meilleurs résultats, précongeler les viandes et les poissons pendant 1 à 2 heures avant
de les emballer sous vide dans un sac FoodSaver
MD
. Cela permet de retenir le jus et la forme
et garantit une meilleure mise sous vide. Si la précongélation n’est pas possible, placer un
essuie-tout plié entre la viande ou le poisson et le haut du sac, mais sous la zone de scellement.
Laisser l’essuie-tout dans le sac pour absorber l’excès d’humidité et les jus pendant le processus
de mise sous vide.
REMARQUE : Le bœuf peut apparaître plus foncé après l’emballage sous vide en raison de
l’absence d’oxygène. Cela n’indique en rien que le produit est gâché.
Consignes de préparation pour les fromages à pâte dure :
Pour préserver la fraîcheur du fromage, emballer sous vide après chaque utilisation. Veiller à
fabriquer un sac FoodSaver
MD
très long, en laissant 2,54 cm (1 pouce) d’espace pour chaque
fois que l’on prévoit d’ouvrir et de sceller le sac à nouveau en plus des 7,62 cm (3 pouces)
d’espace supplémentaire qu’il faut normalement laisser entre le contenu du sac et le bord
scellement. Il suffit de couper l’extrémité scellée pour sortir le fromage. Lorsqu’il est temps de
sceller le fromage à nouveau, il suffit de le mettre dans le sac et de sceller celui-ci à nouveau.
IMPORTANT :
En raison du risque de bactéries anaérobies, les fromages à pâte molle ne doivent jamais
être emballés sous vide.

Conseils en matière de préparation alimentaire et de
réchauffage
IMPORTANT :
En raison du risque de bactéries anaérobies, les champignons, les oignons et l’ail frais ne
doivent jamais être emballés sous vide.
Consignes de préparation
pour les légumes :
Les légumes doivent être blanchis avant d’être emballés sous vide. Ce processus arrête l’action
de l’enzyme qui peut causer une perte de saveur, de couleur et de texture.
Pour blanchir les légumes, les placer dans de l’eau bouillante ou au micro-ondes jusqu’à ce
qu’ils soient cuits mais encore croquants. La durée de blanchiment varie de 1 à 2 minutes pour
les légumes verts à feuilles et les pois; 3 à 4 minutes pour les pois mange-tout, les rondelles
de courgette ou le brocoli; 5 minutes pour les carottes; et 7 à 11 minutes pour le maïs sur épi.
Après les avoir blanchis, plonger les légumes dans l’eau froide pour interrompre le processus de
cuisson. Enfin, sécher les légumes sur une serviette avant de les emballer sous vide.
REMARQUE : Tous les légumes (y compris les brocolis, les choux de Bruxelles, le chou, le chou-
fleur, le chou frisé, les navets) produisent naturellement des gaz pendant leur conservation.
Ainsi, après le blanchiment, ils doivent être conservés uniquement au congélateur.
Quand vous congelez vos légumes, il est préférable de les précongeler pendant 1 à 2 heures
ou jusqu’à ce qu’ils soient solidement congelés. Pour congeler des légumes en portions
individuelles, placer d’abord les légumes sur une plaque de cuisson et les étaler de façon à ce
qu’ils ne se touchent pas. Ainsi, cela évitera qu’ils congèlent en un seul bloc. Une fois congelés,
retirer les légumes de la plaque de cuisson et les emballer sous vide dans un sac FoodSaver
MD
.
Une fois mis sous vide, les remettre au congélateur.
Consignes de préparation pour
les légumes à feuilles :
Pour de meilleurs résultats, utiliser un Contenant pour conserver les légumes à feuilles. D’abord,
laver les légumes, puis les sécher avec une serviette ou une essoreuse à salade. Une fois
secs, les placer dans un contenant et les emballer sous vide comme d’habitude. Ranger au
réfrigérateur.

IMPORTANT:
Lorsque vous mettez des pommes sous vide, elles doivent être tranchées, et mettre un peu
de jus de citron dessus les tranches pour éviter qu’elles ne brunissent.
En raison de leur maturation naturelle, les bananes peuvent en fait se décomposer plus
rapidement sous un emballage sous vide.
Conseils en matière de préparation alimentaire et de
réchauffage
Consignes de préparation pour les fruits :
Pour congeler des fruits ou des baies, il est préférable de les précongeler pendant 1 à 2
heures ou jusqu’à ce qu’ils soient solidement congelés. Pour congeler des fruits en portions
individuelles, placer d’abord les fruits sur une plaque de cuisson et les étaler de façon à ce
qu’ils ne se touchent pas. Ainsi, cela évitera qu’ils congèlent en un seul bloc. Une fois congelés,
retirez les fruits de la plaque de cuisson et les emballer sous vide dans un sac FoodSaver
MD
. Une
fois mis sous vide, les remettre au congélateur.
Ces portions peuvent être mises sous vide pour les pâtisseries ou pour les combiner et réaliser
des salades de fruits faciles à préparer toute l’année. Pour la conservation au réfrigérateur, nous
recommandons d’utiliser un contenant FoodSaver

Consignes de préparation pour
les produits de boulangerie :
Pour emballer sous vide des produits de boulangerie moelleux ou aérés, nous recommandons,

. Si un sac est utilisé, précongeler pendant 1 à 2 heures ou jusqu’à ce qu’ils soient
solidement congelés. Pour gagner du temps, réaliser les pâtes à biscuits, les fonds de tarte, les
tartes entières ou les mélanges d’ingrédients secs à l’avance et les emballer sous vide pour une
utilisation ultérieure.
Consignes de préparation pour
le café et les aliments en poudre :
Pour éviter que des particules alimentaires soient aspirées dans la pompe de mise sous vide,
placer un filtre à café ou un essuie-tout en haut du sac ou du contenant avant de faire le vide. Il
est aussi possible de placer l’aliment dans son emballage d’origine directement à l’intérieur du
sac FoodSaver

• Ajuster le sac et essayer à nouveau. Veiller à ce que l’extrémité ouverte du sac
se situe bien dans le ramasse-goutes.
• Vérifier que le sac n’est pas froissé le long de la bande de scellement. Pour
empêcher que le sac ne se froisse au niveau de la partie scellée, étirer
délicatement le sac de manière à ce qu’il soit bien plat au moment de l’insérer
dans le ramasse-goutes.
• Ouvrir l’appareil et veiller à ce que le joint supérieur soit bien de corps étranger, de
saleté ou de debris (consulter la section « Nettoyage et entretien », page 40).

bien plat au moment de l’insérer dans le ramasse-goutes.
• Il arrive parfois que de l’humidité ou des matières alimentaires (jus, graisse,
miettes, poudres, etc.) présentes le long de la partie scellée empêchent de sceller
le sac correctement. Découper le sac pour l’ouvrir, essuyer la partie supérieure à
l’intérieur du sac et le sceller à nouveau.
• Si vous utilisez des aliments contenant beaucoup de liquide, utiliser le mode
liquide afin d’éviter que de trop grosses quantités de jus ou de liquides ne soient
aspirées à l’extérieur du sac.
• Des produits alimentaires pointus pourraient avoir percé le sac. Si le sac est troué,
en utiliser un autre. Couvrir les produits alimentaires pointus avec un matériau de
rembourrage doux, comme un essuie-tout, puis sceller à nouveau le sac.
• Il est possible que les aliments aient fermenté ou que des gaz naturels provenant
de l’intérieur des aliments se soient dégagés. Le cas échéant, les aliments
pourraient avoir commencé à s’avarier et devraient être jetés.
• Sac défectueux. Le sac pourrait être percé. Essayer un nouveau sac.

Servicio al Cliente: US: 1-877-777-8042 CA: 1-877-804-5383 MX: +52 55 5366 0800
4. Precaución: Se proporciona un cable de alimentación corto para reducir
los riesgos de enredos o tropiezos con un cable más largo. Se puede
utilizar un cable de extensión cuando la clasificación eléctrica marcada
no sea inferior a la clasificación eléctrica de este aparato.
5. No debe haber cables que cuelguen de la encimera ni de la mesa,
donde se pueda tropezar con ellos o tirar de ellos sin querer,
especialmente en el caso de los niños.
6. No lo coloque sobre o cerca de un quemador de gas o eléctrico
caliente, o de un horno caliente. Se debe extremar la precaución al
mover productos que contengan líquidos calientes.
7. La tapa se cierra automáticamente con fuerza. No obstruya el cierre de
la tapa. No fuerce manualmente la tapa para cerrarla.
8. No ponga los dedos ni ningún objeto extraño dentro de la ventana
de visualización del vacío mientras se está sellando al vacío.
Consejos importantes
1. El sellado al vacío NO es un sustituto del proceso térmico del enlatado.
Los productos perecederos todavía deben ser refrigerados o congelados.
2. Para obtener los mejores resultados, utilice únicamente bolsas, rollos,
recipientes y accesorios FoodSaver
®
.
3. Durante el proceso de envasado al vacío, pequeñas cantidades de
líquidos, migas o partículas de alimentos pueden ser arrastradas sin
querer al canal de vacío. Vacíe la bandeja de goteo después de cada uso.
4. Evite el sobrellenado; deje siempre al menos tres pulgadas (7.62 cm) de
material de la bolsa entre el contenido y la parte superior de la bolsa.
Esto permite que el material de la bolsa se ajuste bien a los alimentos
y evita que la bolsa se salga del canal de vacío durante el proceso
de sellado. Después, deje al menos una pulgada (2.54 cm) más de
material de la bolsa cada vez que piense reutilizarla.
5. No cree sus propias costuras laterales para una bolsa FoodSaver
®
.
Estas bolsas se fabrican con una costura lateral especial, que se sella
hasta el borde exterior.
6. Para evitar que se formen arrugas en el sello al sellar al vacío artículos
voluminosos, estire suavemente la bolsa para aplanarla mientras la
introduce en el canal de vacío y continúe sujetándola hasta que la
bomba de vacío se ponga en marcha.
7. Al sellar al vacío artículos con bordes afilados (espaguetis secos,
cubiertos, etc.), proteja la bolsa de los pinchazos envolviendo el artículo
en un material amortiguador suave, como una toalla de papel. Puede
utilizar un Recipientes o un tarro Mason en lugar de una bolsa.

55
US: www.FoodSaver.com | CA: www.FoodSaver.ca | MX: www.oster.com.mx/foodsaver
8. Al utilizar accesorios, recuerde dejar un espacio de una pulgada (2.54
cm) en la parte superior.
9. Precongele las frutas y blanquee las verduras antes de sellarlas al vacío
para obtener los mejores resultados. (Consulte las indicaciones para el
sellado al vacío en las páginas 66 a 71.)
10. Espere 20 s entre cada sellado para permitir que el aparato se enfríe.
11. Nunca almacene la tapa en posición de FUNCIONAMIENTO ya que las
juntas pueden comprimirse.
GUARDE ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES
Sólo para uso doméstico
INSTRUCCIONES PARA EL CABLE DE ALIMENTACIÓN:
Se proporciona un cable de alimentación corto (o un cable de
alimentación desmontable) para reducir los riesgos derivados de enredos
o tropiezos con un cable más largo. Existen cables de alimentación
desmontables más largos o cables de extensión que pueden utilizarse
siempre y cuando se utilicen con cuidado. Si se utiliza un cable de
alimentación desmontable largo o un cable de extensión:
a. La clasificación eléctrica marcada del cable de alimentación desmontable
o del cable de extensión debe ser al menos la misma que la clasificación
eléctrica del aparato;
b. Si el aparato es del tipo con conexión a tierra, el cable de extensión debe
ser un cable de 3 alambres con conexión a tierra; y
c. El cable más largo debe colocarse para que no cuelgue de la encimera o la
mesa, donde los niños se pueden tropezar con el cable o tirar de él sin querer.
Este aparato tiene un enchufe polarizado (una clavija
es más ancha que la otra). Como medida de seguridad
para reducir el riesgo de descarga eléctrica, este
enchufe está diseñado para entrar en una toma de
corriente polarizada únicamente de una forma. Dé la
vuelta al enchufe si no entra completamente en la toma de corriente. Si
sigue sin entrar, póngase en contacto con un electricista autorizado. No
intente manipular esta característica de seguridad ni modificar el enchufe
de ninguna manera. Si el enchufe no entra bien en la toma de corriente
alterna o si la toma de corriente está caliente, no utilice esa toma.

Sellado al vacío y seguridad alimentaria
Indicaciones
El proceso de sellado al vacío prolonga la duración de los alimentos al eliminar la mayor parte del aire del
recipiente sellado, reduciendo así la oxidación, que afecta al valor nutricional, al sabor y a la calidad general.
La eliminación del aire también puede inhibir el crecimiento de microorganismos, que pueden causar
problemas en determinadas condiciones:
Moho – Se identifica fácilmente por su característica peluda. El moho no puede crecer en un entorno con
poco oxígeno, por lo que el sellado al vacío puede frenar su crecimiento.
Levadura – Provoca la fermentación, que puede identificarse por el olfato y el gusto. La levadura necesita
agua, azúcar y una temperatura moderada para crecer. También puede sobrevivir con o sin aire. Para
frenar el crecimiento de la levadura es necesaria la refrigeración, mientras que la congelación la detiene por
completo.
Bacterias – Producen un olor desagradable, decoloración y/o textura blanda o viscosa. En condiciones
adecuadas, las bacterias anaerobias como el Clostridium Botulinum (el organismo que causa el botulismo)
pueden crecer sin aire y a veces no pueden detectarse por el olfato o el gusto. Aunque es extremadamente
raro, puede ser muy peligroso.
Para conservar los alimentos de forma segura, es fundamental mantener temperaturas bajas. Puede reducir
significativamente el crecimiento de los microorganismos a temperaturas de 40 °F (4 °C) o inferiores.
La congelación a 0 °F (-17 °C) no mata a los microorganismos, pero impide su crecimiento. Para el
almacenamiento a largo plazo, congele siempre los alimentos perecederos que hayan sido sellados al vacío, y
manténgalos refrigerados después de descongelarlos.
Es importante tener en cuenta que el sellado al vacío NO es un sustituto del enlatado y no puede revertir el
deterioro de los alimentos. Sólo puede ralentizar los cambios de calidad. Es difícil predecir cuánto tiempo
conservarán los alimentos su sabor, aspecto o textura de máxima calidad, ya que depende de la edad y el
estado de los alimentos el día en que se sellaron al vacío.
IMPORTANTE:
El sellado al vacío NO sustituye a la refrigeración o la congelación.
Cualquier alimento perecedero que requiera refrigeración debe seguir siendo refrigerado o congelado
después del sellado al vacío.

INDICACIONES
Consejos para preparar y recalentar los alimentos
Descongelación y recalentamiento
de alimentos sellados al vacío
Descongele siempre los alimentos en el refrigerador o en el microondas; no descongele los
alimentos perecederos a temperatura ambiente.
Para recalentar alimentos en el microondas dentro de una bolsa FoodSaver
®
, corte siempre la
esquina de la bolsa antes de colocarla en un plato apto para microondas. Sin embargo, para
evitar puntos calientes, no recaliente carne con hueso o alimentos grasos en el microondas
dentro de una bolsa FoodSaver
®
. También puede recalentar los alimentos en las bolsas
FoodSaver
®
colocándolas en agua a fuego lento por debajo de los 170 °F (75 °C).
Indicaciones para la preparación
de la carne y el pescado:
Para obtener los mejores resultados, congele previamente la carne y el pescado durante 1 a 2
horas antes de sellarlos al vacío en una bolsa FoodSaver
®
. Esto ayuda a conservar el jugo y la
forma, y garantiza un mejor sellado. Si no es posible la precongelación, coloque una toalla de
papel doblada entre la carne o el pescado y la parte superior de la bolsa, pero por debajo de la
zona de sellado. Deje la toalla de papel en la bolsa para que absorba el exceso de humedad y los
jugos durante el proceso de sellado al vacío.
NOTA: La carne de res puede parecer más oscura después del sellado al vacío debido a la
eliminación del oxígeno. Esto no es una indicación de deterioro.
Indicaciones para la preparación de los quesos duros:
Para mantener el queso fresco, séllelo al vacío después de cada uso. Haga su bolsa
FoodSaver
®
extra larga, dejando una pulgada (2.54 cm) de material de la bolsa cada vez
que planee abrir y volver a sellar, además del espacio extra de 3 pulgadas (7.62 cm) que
normalmente deja entre el contenido y el borde del sello. Simplemente corte el borde sellado
y saque el queso. Cuando esté listo para volver a sellar el queso, simplemente colóquelo en la
bolsa y vuelva a sellarla.
IMPORTANTE:
Debido al riesgo de bacterias anaerobias, los quesos blandos no deben sellarse nunca al
vacío.

INDICACIONES
Consejos para preparar y recalentar los alimentos
IMPORTANTE:
Debido al riesgo de bacterias anaerobias, los champiñones, las cebollas y los ajos frescos
no deben sellarse nunca al vacío.
Indicaciones para la preparación
de las verduras:
Las verduras deben ser blanqueadas antes de ser selladas al vacío. Este proceso detiene la
acción de las enzimas que podría provocar la pérdida de sabor, color y textura.
Para blanquear las verduras, colóquelas en agua hirviendo o en el microondas hasta que estén
cocidas, pero todavía crujientes. El tiempo de blanqueo oscila entre 1 min y 2 min para las
verduras de hoja verde y los guisantes; entre 3 min y 4 min para los chícharos dulces, el
calabacín en rodajas o el brócoli; 5 min para las zanahorias; y entre 7 min y 11 min para las
mazorcas de maíz. Después de blanquear las verduras, sumérjalas en agua fría para detener el
proceso de cocción. Por último, seque las verduras en una toalla antes de sellarlas al vacío.
NOTA: Todas las verduras (incluso el brócoli, las coles de Bruselas, la col, la coliflor, la col rizada
y los nabos) emiten gases de forma natural durante su almacenamiento. Por lo tanto, después
de blanquearlas, deben almacenarse únicamente en el congelador.
Al congelar las verduras, lo mejor es precongelarlas durante 1 h a 2 h o hasta que queden
sólidamente congeladas. Para congelar las verduras en porciones individuales, colóquelas
primero en una bandeja de horno y extiéndalas para que no se toquen. Así se evita que se
congelen juntas en bloque. Una vez que estén congeladas, retírelas de la bandeja de hornear y
selle las verduras al vacío en una bolsa FoodSaver
®
. Una vez selladas al vacío, vuelva a ponerlas
en el congelador.
Indicaciones para la preparación
de las verduras de hoja:
Para obtener los mejores resultados, utilice un contenedor para guardar las verduras de hoja.
Primero lave las verduras y luego séquelas con una toalla o un centrifugador de ensaladas. Una
vez secadas, colóquelas en un recipiente y séllelas al vacío de forma normal. Guárdelas en el
refrigerador.

IMPORTANTE:
Al sellar al vacío las manzanas, se deben cortar en rodajas y poner un poco de jugo de
limón en las rodajas para evitar que se doren.
Debido a su maduración natural, los plátanos en realidad pueden descomponerse más
rápido bajo un sello de vacío.
Consejos para preparar y recalentar los alimentos
Indicaciones para la preparación de las frutas:
Al congelar frutas blandas o bayas, lo mejor es precongelarlas durante 1 o 2 horas o hasta
que estén sólidamente congeladas. Para congelar frutas en porciones individuales, colóquelas
primero en una bandeja de horno y extiéndalas para que no se toquen. Así se evita que se
congelen juntas en bloque. Una vez que estén congeladas, retírelas de la bandeja de hornear y
selle la fruta al vacío en una bolsa FoodSaver
®
. Una vez selladas al vacío, vuelva a ponerlas en
el congelador.
Puede sellar al vacío porciones para hornear o en sus combinaciones favoritas para una fácil
ensalada de frutas durante todo el año. Si se almacena en el refrigerador, se recomienda utilizar
un recipiente FoodSaver
®
.
Indicaciones para la preparación
de los productos horneados:
Para sellar al vacío productos horneados blandos o esponjosos, recomendamos utilizar un
recipiente para conservas y marinados FoodSaver
®
para que mantengan su forma. Si utiliza una
bolsa, congele previamente durante 1 o 2 horas o hasta que estén sólidamente congelados. Para
ahorrar tiempo, haga la masa de galletas, las bases de tarta, las tartas enteras, o mezcle los
ingredientes secos con antelación y séllelos al vacío para su uso posterior.
Indicaciones para la preparación
del café y alimentos en polvo:
Para evitar que las partículas de comida sean arrastradas a la bomba de vacío, coloque un filtro
de café o una toalla de papel en la parte superior de la bolsa o del recipiente antes de sellar al
vacío. También puede colocar los alimentos en su bolsa original dentro de una bolsa
FoodSaver

¿Cuáles son los límites de la responsabilidad de Sunbeam?
Sunbeam no será responsable de ningún daño incidental o consecuente causado por el incumplimiento
de cualquier garantía o condición expresa, implícita o legal. Salvo en la medida en que lo prohíba la
legislación aplicable, cualquier garantía o condición implícita de comerciabilidad o idoneidad para
un fin determinado se limita a la duración de la garantía anterior. Sunbeam renuncia a cualquier
otra garantía, condición o representación, expresa, implícita, legal o de otro tipo. Sunbeam no será

imposibilidad de utilizarlo, incluidos los daños incidentales, especiales, consecuentes o similares o la
pérdida de beneficios, o de cualquier incumplimiento de contrato, fundamental o de otro tipo, o de
cualquier reclamación presentada contra el comprador por cualquier otra parte. Algunas provincias,
estados o jurisdicciones no permiten la exclusión o limitación de los daños incidentales o consecuentes,
ni la limitación de la duración de una garantía implícita, por lo que es posible que las limitaciones o
exclusiones anteriores no se apliquen en su caso. Esta garantía le otorga derechos legales específicos,
y también puede tener otros derechos que varían de una provincia a otra, de un estado a otro o de una
jurisdicción a otra.
