Operating Instructions

General Vacuum Sealing Steps:

  1. Open the Lid: Press the release buttons on both sides of the machine to open the lid.
  2. Position the Bag: Place the open end of the vacuum bag into the vacuum chamber, ensuring it lies flat and smooth across the sealing strip. The open end of the bag should be fully inside the vacuum chamber but not extend past the sealing strip.
  3. Close the Lid: Close the lid firmly until you hear a "pop" sound on both sides, indicating it is securely latched.
  4. Select Mode: Choose the appropriate vacuum sealing mode based on your food type:
    • NORMAL VAC: For dry foods. This mode performs full vacuum and seal.
    • GENTLE VAC: For moist or delicate foods. This mode performs a gentler vacuum before sealing.
    • SEAL: Only seals the bag without vacuuming. Useful for creating custom-sized bags from a roll or sealing bags that do not require vacuuming.
    • MANUAL: Allows you to manually control the vacuuming time. Press and hold to vacuum, release to stop, then press SEAL to seal.
  5. Start Process: Press the button for your selected mode (NORMAL VAC or GENTLE VAC). The machine will automatically vacuum and then seal the bag. For MANUAL mode, follow the instructions above.
  6. Monitor Indicators: The LED indicators will show the progress. The SEAL light will turn blue when sealing is complete. The STOP light will turn red if the process is interrupted or completed.
  7. Release and Remove: Once the process is complete and the lights indicate, press the release buttons on both sides to open the lid and remove the sealed bag.
