Helpful Hints
1.
Do not overfill the bag. Always leave at least 7.6 cm/3in between bag contents and
the top of the bag.
2.
Clean the opening end of the bag inside and outside. Flatten the bag opening.
3.
When vacuum packaging a large item, to prevent wrinkles in the seal, gently stretch
the bag flat before placing it into the vacuum chamber.
4.
Make sure the bag is dry. It will be difficult to make a tight seal if the bag is wet.
5.
For best results, perishables still need to be frozen or refrigerated after vacuum
sealing process.
6.
When you are vacuum sealing items with sharp edges (such as dry spaghetti,
silverware, etc.), protect the bag from punctures by wrapping the item in soft
cushioning material, such as a paper towel. You may use a canister instead of a bag.
7.
When using canisters, always leave 2.5cm of space at the top of canister.
8.
Pre-freeze fruits and vegetables before vacuum sealing for the best results.
9.
Allow the appliance to cool for 1 minute between uses to avoid activating
overheating protection.
10.
If you are not sure whether your bag was sealed properly, simply reseal the bag.
11.
For best results, use bags and canisters produced by the manufacturer.
12.
Microwave: Make sure the bag is punctured before heating by microwave to allow
the release of steam.
