1.    Vacuum packaging is NOT a 

substitute for the heat process of 

preserving. Perishables still need to 

be refrigerated.

2.  For best results, use only with 

FoodSaver

®

 Brand Vacuum Zipper 

Bags and Fresh Containers*.

3.  When vacuum packaging zipper 

bags, small amounts of liquids, 

crumbs or food particles can be 

inadvertently pulled into the Valve, 

creating a possible air leak. To 

prevent this, follow these tips: 

a.  For soups, sauces and liquids:  

use a container and then place in 

refrigerator. Sealing liquid in 

Zipper Bags is NOT 

recommended.

  b.  For powdery or fine-grained foods:  

Avoid overfilling bags or use a 

container. You can also place a 

coffee filter or paper towel on top of 

the food beneath valve before 

vacuum packaging.

  c.  Ensure the zipper is closed 

securely and no food debris 

is trapped in the zipper. Food 

trapped in the zipper can create a 

leak which may cause the bag to 

lose vacuum over time.
