Operating Instructions

Installing Batteries

1. Remove Battery Cover.
2. Replace Battery Cover by pressing in the catch. Replace with six AA alkaline batteries, ensuring the +/- matches the indication on the Battery Cover.

AC Power
Insert the plug of the power adapter into the power jack, while the other end is connected to power supply.
The Handheld Vacuum Sealer works with the Zipper Closure and Air Valve on the Vacuum Zipper Bag. Once air is removed, the Bag forms a tight seal around the food & items. This system virtually eliminates Air Valve freezer burn during freezer storage.

1. Fill and seal the Vacuum Zipper Bag.
2. Place the Bag flat on the counter making sure there is no food above the Maximum Line or under the Air Valve.
3. Press Vacuum Sealer Tip flat against Air Valve.
4. Press the ON Button to remove air from Bag. Release ON Button when Bag becomes tight around food. Remove air for about 8-15seconds, it depends on the volume of bag.
5. Refrigerate food immediately (dry foodstuffs no need to be refrigerated).

Care & Maintenance

1. Vacuum Sealer
   The Vacuum Sealer can be wiped clean with damp cloth. Vacuum Sealer should not be immersed in water or be placed in dishwasher.

2. Removable Chamber
   The Chamber should be removed and cleaned if it contains any liquid. To remove, simply twist off in the direction of the arrow on the Vacuum Sealer. Clean with warm soapy water. Air dry before replacing.

3. Washing the Vacuum Bag
   Turn the bag inside out, and wash gently with normal washing-up liquid to remove all residual food. Wipe clean with a dry cloth and allow to dry thoroughly before re-using. Avoid rubbing the valve. DO NOT use a dishwasher.

Notice for Operation

• Do not run the Vacuum Sealer continuously for a long period. Draw the vacuum in short bursts, resting a few seconds before each burst.
• Do not use the Vacuum Sealer for liquid food. Pre-freeze it first so it becomes solid.
• It is preferable to peel fruit and blanch green vegetables before vacuum packing.
• To clean the Vacuum Bags effectively, pre-pack greasy food like meat and fish in a conventional freezer bag before vacuum packing.
• Not recommend to merge the air valve into water when use.
• Not recommend to store the food with sharp edges such as bones or the food with too much water or with powder (e.g. flour) in case the air valve is damaged.
• Before filling the bag, make a note of the contents on the white Labelling Panel.
• Do not place vacuum bag into the microwave oven, over direct fire or merge into 100°C boiling water over 4 hours.

plied to Air Valve.
