Tips for Successful Vacuum Packaging
For more usage tips and safety information, please refer to the FoodSaver Reference Guide or visit our website at www.foodsaver.com.
Sealing a Bag
Make sure you’ve placed the bag in the proper
place. When making a bag from a roll, make sure
end of cut piece is on Sealing Strip
(H), not over
rubber gasket
(J) or in Vacuum Channel (G).
Prevent moisture or liquid from being pulled into
the Vacuum Channel or trapped in the seal. Either
pre-freeze moist foods such as raw meat for 1-2 hours
before vacuum packaging, or place a folded paper
towel between food and end of bag to absorb excess
liquids. Just be sure to leave at least 3 inches between
paper towel and end of bag so that bag seals proper-
ly with paper towel inside.
Make sure the Seal Control Switch (E) is set to the
proper setting.
Make sure you give appliance time to cool down.
Wait at least 20 seconds between seals. Under very
heavy usage, appliance will shut off automatically to
prevent overheating. If it does, wait 20 minutes to
allow appliance to cool off.
Removing Air from a Bag
Make sure you’ve placed the bag in the proper
place. When vacuuming and sealing a bag, make
sure open end of bag is inside Vacuum Channel
(G).
Check for wrinkles in the bag along the Sealing
Strip. Wrinkles in seal may cause leakage and allow
air to come back into bag. Check for wrinkles in bag
along Sealing Strip
(H) before closing lid and vacu-
um packaging. If you find wrinkles after sealing bag,
simply cut bag open and vacuum package again.
If motor runs for more than 30 seconds without
stopping, you may need to adjust bag and try again.
If you are making the initial seal on a piece of bag
material with two open ends, make sure bag is placed
on Sealing Strip, not on rubber gasket
(J). If you are
vacuum packaging with a bag, make sure open end
is placed down inside Vacuum Channel and make
sure Accessory Hose
(F) is not attached. If you are
vacuum packaging with an accessory, check Accessory
Hose in appliance lid and in accessory to ensure a
tight fit.
