Trouble Shooting
Nothing happens when I press the button:
l Make sure the power cord is correctly plugged into the electrical outlet.
l Make sure the power cord is not damaged in any way.
l Make sure the electrical outlet is operative by plugging in another appliance. If it’s
not, please check the circuit breakers or fuses in your home.
l Make sure the bag is positioned correctly down in the vacuum chamber.
l Press down on both sides of the lid and make sure it is locked in place.
l Wait 25 minutes to allow appliance to cool off, and then try using again.
Air is not vacuumed from the bag:
l Check that there are no gaps, folds, wrinkles or holes in the pre-sealed bags.
l Check for loose, worn or cracked Upper and Lower sealing gaskets.
l Foods with high liquid contents may prevent the bag from sealing properly. Cut bag
open and wipe top inside of bag and reseal.
l Check to see if bag is properly inserted into the vacuum chamber.
l 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 the sealing strip.
Bag melts:
l The sealing strip may have been too hot during the sealing process. Allow the unit
to cool for 20 seconds between uses. If the bag continues to melt, allow unit to cool
with the lid in the upright position for 25 minutes before using.
Air has seeped back into the vacuumed bag:
l Check the seal of the bag. There may be a hole or wrinkle that is allowing air to
reenter the bag. Carefully cut the bag open and re-seal it, or use an entirely new
bag.
