TROUBLE SHOOTING

Possible problem

Solution

The appliance does not 

operate when switching it on

•  Check if the appliance is properly connected to a power 

outlet and check if the power outlet does work. Therefore connect 

another appliance to the same power outlet. 

•  Check if the power cord and the plug have any defects. 

Contact authorised service centre if they show any defects.

•  The appliance shuts off automatically to prevent overheating. 

Let the appliance cool down for 15 minutes and try again.

The appliance does not seal the 

plastic bag

•  Check if the plastic bag is in proper position (

Sealing the 

plastic bag

) and check if the smooth side of the foil is facing up.

The appliance does not generate 

a full vacuum

•  Check if:

-  the plastic bag is in proper position (

Sealing the plastic 

bag

) and if the end of the plastic bag extends to the middle of 

the gasket into the vacuum chamber

-  the gaskets and the grommet are properly assembled 

-  the security lock of the vacuum chamber is all the way to the left

-  anything sticks to the sealing band or the gaskets

-  little pieces of food are inside the plastic bag on the section of the 

sealing band

-  the smooth side of the foil is facing up

-  the plastic bag has a hole - You can proof this by dipping the 

sealed plastic bag into water. In case of a hole air would escape 

when you put slight pressure on the plastic bag. Depending on 

the position of the hole either seal the plastic bag again or use a 

new one.
