Important Tips
1. Read this manual carefully before using your vacuum sealer.
2. Vacuum packaging is not a substitute for canning. All perishable foods
still need to be refrigerated or frozen.
3. Follow all food safety regulations as outlined by FDA at www.FDA.gov.
4. Use only Avid Armor vacuum bags, rolls and accessories.
5. Do not use the vacuum sealer on a wet or hot surface or near a heat
source.
6. Some vegetables and fruits may release gases, known as outgassing.
When packaging these vegetables and fruits, outgassing can cause the
vacuum to be gradually lost over time. Blanching or freezing before
vacuuming helps prevent this from occurring.
7. Delicate foods can be frozen prior to packaging to protect from being
crushed by the vacuum.
8. If packaging fresh meats without pre-freezing, place a folded paper
towel or blotter paper between the meat and top of the bag to help
absorb the moisture.
9. To vacuum liquids, pre-freeze in a dish or pan first.
10. Cover sharp edges or points with bone guard or paper towels to prevent
the bag from puncturing.
11. Avid Armor bags and rolls are boilable, microwavable, freezable and
perfect for sous vide cooking.
12. Do not reuse bags that have stored fish or greasy foods. Do not cross
contaminate.
13. Allow foods and liquids to cool prior to vacuum packaging.
14. Ensure liquids are not sucked into the vacuum sealer. This will void
warranty.
