4. Make sure the latches are in the locked position.
5. Make sure bag is placed correctly inside Vacuum Chamber.
6. Allow the appliance to cool for 40 seconds before using it again

AIR IS STILL IN THE BAG AFTER
1. Make sure the opening of the bag is placed entirely inside Vacuum Chamber.
2. AIR IS STILL IN THE BAG AFTER VACUUM:
Examine the bag if it leaks. Seal bag with air, then immerse it in water and apply pressure, Bubbles indicate a leak, use a new bag if bubbles appear.
3. If you use a Bag with customized PKVS18, check the seal of bag. A wrinkle in the bag along the seal may cause leakage and allow air to re-enter, just cut bag and reseal.
4. Do not attempt to make your own side seams for an PKVS18 Bag, the bags are manufactured with special side seams, which are sealed all the way to the outer edge. Making your own side seams may cause leakage and allow air to re-enter.
HAS RE-ENTERED
1. Examine seal of bag. A wrinkle along the seal may cause leakage and allow air to enter, simply cut bag and reseal.
2. Sometimes moisture or food material (such as juices, grease, crumbs, powders, etc.) along seal prevents bag from sealing properly. Cut bag, wipe top inside of bag and reseal.
3. If you vacuum package sharp food items, bag may have been punctured, use a new bag if there is a hole. Cover sharp food items with a soft cushioning material, such as a tissue paper, and reseal.
4. If there’s air still in the bag, 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.

If the bag melts, rubber lip may have become too hot, always wait at least 5 minutes for appliance to cool down before you vacuum package another item.
