Solis Vac Pro 569 Vacuum Sealing Machine

1. Introduction

This process significantly reduces food spoilage, prevents freezer burn, and preserves flavors and nutrients. It is suitable for a wide variety of foods, including dry, moist, and delicate items, and can also be used for non-food items like jewelry or documents.

With its powerful vacuum pump and versatile sealing options, the Solis Vac Pro 569 offers a convenient and efficient solution for food preservation in your home.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Basic Vacuum Sealing (Dry Foods)

1. Prepare the Bag: Place the food item into a vacuum sealer bag, leaving at least 5-7 cm of space between the food and the open end of the bag. Ensure the inside of the bag's open end is clean and dry.
2. Position the Bag: Open the lid of the vacuum sealer. Place the open end of the bag flat into the vacuum chamber, ensuring it lies smoothly over the sealing strip and within the drip tray area.
3. Close the Lid: Firmly press down on both sides of the lid until the latches click into place, indicating the lid is securely locked.
4. Start Vacuuming and Sealing: Press the "VACUUM & SEAL" button on the control panel. The machine will automatically remove air from the bag and then proceed to seal it.
5. Monitor Progress: The indicator lights will show the progress of the vacuuming and sealing process.
6. Release and Remove: Once the process is complete and the indicator lights turn off, press the "CANCEL" button (if applicable) or wait for the machine to automatically release the vacuum. Open the lid by pressing the release buttons (if present) or lifting the latches, and remove the sealed bag.

5.2 Vacuum Sealing Moist or Delicate Foods

For moist foods, ensure the drip tray is clean and properly inserted. For delicate or pressure-sensitive foods, use the Pulse function.

1. Prepare and Position: Place the food in the bag as described in 5.1. Ensure no liquid is near the sealing area.
2. Use Pulse Function (for delicate items): Instead of "VACUUM & SEAL", press the "PULSE" button repeatedly to control the vacuum pressure manually. Observe the bag and food to prevent crushing.
3. Seal Manually: Once the desired vacuum level is reached, press the "SEAL" button to initiate the sealing process. The machine will then create a seal.
4. Release and Remove: After sealing, release the lid and remove the bag.

5.3 Sealing Only (Without Vacuum)

This function is useful for creating custom-sized bags from rolls or sealing bags without removing air.

1. Position the Bag: Place the open end of the bag or film roll over the sealing strip.
2. Close the Lid: Securely close the lid.
3. Initiate Seal: Press the "SEAL" button. The machine will heat the sealing strip to create a seal.
4. Remove Bag: Once the sealing process is complete, open the lid and remove the sealed bag.

5.4 Using the Vacuum Hose for Containers

The Solis Vac Pro 569 can also vacuum seal compatible external containers (sold separately) using the included vacuum hose.

1. Prepare Container: Place food into a compatible vacuum container and secure its lid according to the container's instructions.
2. Connect Hose: Insert one end of the vacuum hose into the hose port on the Solis Vac Pro 569. Connect the other end to the vacuum port on the container's lid.
3. Start Vacuum: Press the "VACUUM" button (or "VACUUM & SEAL" if it initiates vacuum first). The machine will begin to remove air from the container.
4. Disconnect: Once the vacuum is complete (the machine may stop automatically or you may need to press "CANCEL"), disconnect the hose from both the machine and the container.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your vacuum sealer.

• Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
• Cleaning the Sealing Strip: Allow the sealing strip to cool completely. Wipe it gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove any food residue. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
• Cleaning the Drip Tray: The drip tray is removable for easy cleaning. Wash it with warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry completely before reinserting.
• Cleaning the Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the machine with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, a mild detergent can be used. Dry thoroughly.
• Storage: Store the appliance in a clean, dry place. It is recommended to store the lid unlatched to prevent compression of the sealing gaskets, which can affect performance over time.
