 INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

•   Before Vacuum Sealing, it is necessary to clean your hands, 

and all utensils and surfaces to be used for cutting and 
Vacuum Sealing foods.

•   Refrigerate or freeze perishable foods immediately, if they 

have been vacuum sealed do not leave them sitting at room 
temperature.

Note: It may be harmful if you consume foods which have been left 
out at room temperature.
•   Store dry foods such as nuts, biscuits or cereals, in a cool, 

dark dry place.

•   Vacuum Sealed bags prevent freezer burn. Foods that thaw 

easily should be placed at the back of the freezer where the 
temperature is more constant. When thawing foods it is best 
to thaw foods in the refrigerator. Never thaw meats, poultry, 
fish or dairy at room temperature or in hot water. If thawing 
food by microwave, foods should be cooked immediately after 
processing to prevent bacteria growth.

•   VACUUM SEALER Vacuum Bags and Rolls are MICROWAVE 

safe, to microwave cut off one corner of the bag so that steam 
can escape and place in microwave.

•   VACUUM SEALER Vacuum Bags and Rolls are SIMMER/BOIL 

safe. Place bag into pot of boiling water with the top of the bag 
above the water for easy removal.

Note: Bags or rolls are not reusable if they have been microwaved 
or simmered/boiled. 
•   To Freeze SOUPS and SAUCES pour liquid into a bag, allowing 

at least 8cm of space at the top of the bag (this allows space 
for expansion of liquid when frozen and sealing space for 
the bag). Do not seal at this point. Place the filled liquid bag 
upright into a freezer, when liquid is frozen, remove bag from 
freezer and Vacuum Seal.

•   Vacuum Sealing FRUITS, for best results pre-freeze cut soft 

fruit prior to vacuum sealing. This helps prevent the fruit from 
being crushed during the vacuum process. 

•   VEGETABLES, for best results blanch vegetables in hot water 

otherwise they may turn black. Blanch so that vegetables are 
still crunchy, then transfer immediately into icy cold water to 
cool. Drain and separate into convenient portions then vacuum 
seal in bags.

•   Vacuum Sealing POULTRY and whole FISH, for best results 

wash poultry and pat dry with a paper towel. Then place foods 
between two paper towels inside bag before Vacuum Sealing. 
The paper towels helps to absorb excess moisture and juices.

•   Vacuum Sealing red MEATS and fish fillets, for best results pat 

dry with a paper towel. Then place foods between two paper 
towels inside bag before Vacuum Sealing. The paper towels 
helps to absorb excess moisture and juices.
