for 1 to 2 hours, then separate them into meal portions within your vacuum bags. After they have 

been vacuum packaged, return them to the freezer.

IMPORTANT

: Due to the risk of anaerobic bacteria, fresh mushrooms, onions & garlic should never 

be vacuum packaged.

PREPARATION HINTS FOR POWDERY FOODS

When vacuum packaging powdery items like flour, it’s best to use their original packaging inside of 

the vacuum bags. The fine powder could get sucked into the machine and cause enough damage to 

shorten the life of the sealer.

PREPARATION HINTS FOR LIQUIDS

Before you vacuum package liquid such as soup stock, pre-freeze it in a casserole dish, loaf pan or 

ice cube tray until solid. Remove frozen liquid from pan and vacuum package in the vacuum bags. 

You can then stack in the freezer. When you’re ready to use, just cut a corner of the bag and place in 
either a microwave dish or drop into water at a low simmer, below 170°F (75°C).

BEFORE INITIAL USE

•  Wipe off the machine with a damp towel.
•  The sealing rings and the bag sealing bar must be clean and level, otherwise it will not be 

possible to generate a vacuum.

•  It is recommended to wait 15 seconds for the machine to warm up before starting the first 

sealing or vacuum packing.

HOW TO MAKE CUSTOM-SIZED BAGS

1.  Pull enough bag material to hold item to be vacuum packaged, plus 2 inches. With a pair of 

scissors or a sharp knife, cut desired bag length from bag roll. Make sure to cut in a straight line. 

Plug in power cord.

2.  Open lid. Place one end of cut bag (ensuring that it is smooth and free of creases) against the 

black oval sealing lip. Don’t worry if you accidentally place any material onto the gasket area.

3.  Press the lid closed at the right and left sides with palms (confirmed by an audible click).
