▷ High: for firm products (firm vegetables, meat, dry products) -
Press the Sealing Time touch key a number of times to select a closure time (sealing time). Select from 3 sealing times. The proper sealing time depends on the thickness of the vacuum sealer bag.

Vacuuming failure
If the vacuum drawer cannot vacuum the vacuum chamber, this can be caused
by the following issues:
-
The lid is not or insufficiently pushed in when starting vacuuming. The Vacuuming Failure indicator lights up.
▷ Push the lid on the front into the rubber gasket properly. -
The oil of the vacuum pump necessary for vacuuming contains moisture.
The Vacuuming Failure indicator and the Dry Run Function indicator light up.
▷ Start the Dry Run Function*. -
A failure has occurred.
▷ Call a service organisation.
If the vacuuming fails a number of times, then the Vacuuming Failure indicator
and the Dry Run Function indicator light up. It is then advised to perform the
Dry Run Function.
Note! If the Vacuum Failure indicator and Dry Run Function indicator are
ignored, the drawer can no longer be operated after a certain number of
warnings (except the Dry Run Function). It is then necessary to start the Dry
Run Function to be able to use the drawer again.
Starting Dry Run Function
After using the vacuum drawer for a period of time, there will be moisture
in the oil of the vacuum pump. Because of this, the device may vacuum
insufficiently. It is then advised to perform the Dry Run
Function. If vacuuming does not work, then the Vacuuming Failure indicator and
the Dry Run Function indicator light up. After a number of warnings (Vacuuming
Failure indicator and Dry Run Function indicator lighting up), it is advised
to perform the Dry Run Function.
- Press the Dry Run Function touch key to start the Dry Run Function.
- Immediately afterwards, shortly press on the front of the lid so that the vacuum chamber can vacuum.
The Dry Run Function symbol flashes during drying.
Note! If the Dry Run Function does not completely remove the moisture
from the oil after a maximum of 20 minutes, then the drawer switches to a
‘cool off’ setting. The vacuum drawer can then not be used for a period of one
hour. **** The Dry Run Function indicator is visible in the display. After
that, start the Dry Run Function again! Regular use of the Dry Run Function is
part of the normal operation of the vacuum drawer.
