IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Read these instructions carefully and retain them for future use. If this
product is passed to a third party, then these instructions must be included.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons including the following:
WARNING Risk of electric shock! To Reduce The Risk Of Electric Shock And Injury To Persons, Disconnect from Power Supply Before Servicing.
CAUTION Risk of electric shock! Do not immerse in water.
CAUTION Risk of burns! Hot surface. Avoid Contact.
CAUTION Risk of burns! Do not vacuum or seal bags containing hot liquids.
- Close supervision is required when this product is used near children.
- Place the product on a flat and stable surface.
- A short power-supply cord (or short detachable power-supply cord) is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
- Extension cords (or longer detachable power-supply cords) are available and are not prohibited from being used when care is exercised in their use
- When an extension cord is used:
- The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord shall be no less than the marked electrical rating of the product;
- When the product is of the grounded type, the extension cord shall be a grounding-type 3-wire cord; and
- The longer cord shall be arranged so that it does not drape over the counter-top or tabletop where it is capable of being tripped over, snagged, or pulled on unintentionally especially by children.
- Never obstruct the ventilation openings during operation. Immediately remove deposits of flint and/or dust.
- During the vacuum packing process, small amounts of liquids, crumbs or food particles can be inadvertently pulled into the vacuum chamber. Clean/dry the vacuum chamber after each use.
- Do not vacuum or seal bags containing hot liquids.
- Never apply any extra lubricant, lubricating oil or organic solvent on the sealer.
- Vacuum packing is not a substitute for refrigeration or freezing. Any perishable food that require refrigeration must still be refrigerated or frozen after vacuum packing.
- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Polarized plug
- This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way

Operation
CAUTION Risk of burns! The sealing wire (K) gets hot during use. Do not
touch it!
NOTICE Move the cutting handle (I) all the way to either corner before
closing the upper cover.
NOTICE Wait 30 seconds between seals to allow the sealing wire (K) to
cool.
NOTICE Make sure the lid is completely closed before operation.
NOTICE Do not tear the sealing wire (K) to avoid the bag melting from the
high temperature.
NOTICE When placing the bag into the vacuum chamber (L), keep the open
end of the bag flat.
Making a bag

Bag Vacuuming and Sealing
CAUTION Risk of food poisoning! Do not reuse bags after storing raw
meats, fish or greasy food. Do not use bags which have been microwaved or
boiled.
NOTICE Only use vacuum bags provided or other similar bags that are
suitable for vacuum sealing (max. width 11.8″ (30 cm)).
NOTICE Under Vac seal mode, bags with the smaller width cannot be sealed.
NOTICE If the bag is not vacuumed sufficiently within 2−3 minutes, the
product switches off automatically.
- Put the food into the sealed bag.
- Clean and straighten the open end of the bag. Make sure there is no dust, wrinkles or ripples.
- Place the open end of the bag in the vacuum chamber (L) area. Make sure the air intake (R) is not covered by the bag. Leave at least 3″ (7 cm) of space between bag contents and top of a bag.
- Close the upper cover and press it down until it clicks in place.
- Press the FOOD mode button (F) to toggle between the dry and moist food modes. Corresponding indicator lights up.
- Press the vacuum seal button (E). Vac seal indicator (A) lights up, and then Seal indicator (B) lights up. The motor continues to run until bag is fully vacuumed, then the bag is automatically sealed.
- After the sealing is completed, the Vac seal (A) and Seal (B) indicators go off. Swipe the cutter handle (I) all the way from one end to another.
- Press both release buttons (T) simultaneously and open the upper cover.
- Remove the sealed bag. Canister Vacuuming
CAUTION Risk of electric burns! Do not touch the sealing wire (K)
while operating.
- Wipe the canister (not provided) clean and dry.
- Put the food into the canister leaving at least 0.39″ (1 cm) of space between food and the cover rim.
- Press both release buttons (T) simultaneously and open the upper cover.
- Insert the suction nozzle (W) into the air intake (R). Leave the top cover opened.
- Connect the other end of the suction hose (V) to the canister. Ensure the connection is sealed well.
- Press the Suction switch button (S) to start vacuuming.
- The motor continues to run until canister is fully vacuumed.
- After vacuuming is completed, remove the suction hose. To stop vacuuming, press the Suction switch button (S) again.
General Tips
-
The vacuum sealing process extends the life of food by removing most of the air from the sealed bag/container. This reduced oxidation, which affects nutritional value, flavor and overall quality. Removing air can also inhibit growth of microorganisms, which can cause problems under certain conditions.
-
Leave enough empty space in the open end of the bag so that it can be placed in the vacuum chamber area without creating wrinkles or ripples.
-
Press the bag to discharge extra air from it before vacuuming for smoother operation.
-
Wait 30 seconds between seals to allow the product to cool.
-
Small amounts of liquids, crumbs or food particles could be pulled into the vacuum chamber during vacuuming. To avoid this, freeze moist and juicy food, place a folded paper on the inside a bag.
-
Avoid overfilling a bag with powdery or fine-grained food. Alternatively, place a coffee filter inside a bag before vacuuming.
-
Apply a thorn-proof package or an extra vacuum bag for bags with sharp bones while vacuuming.
-
Vacuum packing only extends shelf life of perishable food in the freezer or refrigerator, but does not preserve it.
-
Do not vacuum package fresh fruits and vegetables, as they might emit nitrogen and cause rupture and leakage in the bag during vacuuming. Cooked vegetables e.g. boiled carrots can be vacuum packed.
-
Liquid needs to be cooled before vacuum packaging.
