Troubleshooting

1. Nothing happens when the power cord is plugged into the device.
2. Make sure that the power cord is not damaged.
3. Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into the power socket and the device.
4. The device is plugged in but cannot vacuum.
   • Make sure that the lid is closed properly.
   • Make sure that the open end of the bag is correctly placed in the vacuum chamber.
   • If the light is flashing, the device may have overheated. Allow it to cool down for a few minutes and try using it again.
   • Check that the bag is not punctured.
   • Check that the foam seal is not deformed or damaged.
5. The air was extracted from the bag, but now air has penetrated the bag again.
   • Check that there is no hole or puncture in the bag. Sharp objects may have pierced it. If necessary, use a  new bag.
   • Check the sealed edge. Any fold along the sealed edge can cause air penetration. If you find a fold, simply cut the sealed edge and seal it again.
   • If there is moisture or liquid at the open end of the bag, cut off the bag and wipe it off. Then select the MOIST food setting and seal again.
   • If food has been kept for a long time and the bag is filled with gases, the food might be spoiled, and it is advisable to dispose of it.

Note:

1. To prevent the device from overheating, allow it to cool down for 60 seconds between uses. Leave the lid open for faster cooling.
2. If the bag melts, the sealing tape may have overheated. Allow the device to cool down for 60 seconds between uses.
3. To best preserve food, do not reuse the bags after storing raw meat, fish, or fatty foods. Do not reuse bags after cooking or heating in the microwave oven.

USEFUL ADVICE

1. Do not overfill the bag. Always leave at least 6cm between the contents of the bag and the top edge of the bag.
2. Clean the open edge of the bag inside and outside. Smooth the open edge of the bag.
3. When vacuuming a large item, gently spread the bag to smooth the folds before placing it in the vacuum chamber.
4. Ensure that the bag is dry. A wet bag is difficult to seal tightly.
5. For best results, perishable food should be frozen or stored in the refrigerator after vacuuming and sealing.
6. If you vacuum and seal items with sharp edges (such as dry spaghetti, silver items, etc.), protect the bag from punctures by wrapping the item with a soft material such as a paper towel. Instead of a bag, you can use a container.
7. When using containers, always leave a space of 2.5cm at the top of the container.
8. If you are not sure that the bag is properly sealed, simply seal it again.
9. For best results, use bags and containers supplied by the manufacturer.
10. Microwave: The bag must be pierced before heating in the microwave oven.
