Vacuum sealer does not turn on.
  • Ensure the device has power or is being charged via a working power outlet.
  • Check if the USB cable or charging port is damaged.
  • Do not operate the device if it appears defective. Please contact KickAss Products.
The vacuum pump runs, but the bag is not being vacuumed or sealed.
  • Make sure the open end of the bag is properly placed under the caging tabs of the vacuum chamber, with no wrinkles, and does not block the air suction holes.
  • Inspect the sealing foam of the vacuum chamber. Remove foreign elements sticking on the surface and clean if dirty.
  • Check for crumbs or food residue near the sealing area or sealing strip. Clean if needed.
  • Make sure the lid is properly locked on both sides before sealing.
  • Ensure the other side of the bag is fully sealed and there are no holes before starting.
The device stopped the vacuum process before all the air was removed.
  • The device has a safety feature for the Automatic-Vacuum-and-Seal Function that pauses the operation if it runs continuously for 2 minutes. This may happen with larger bags or canisters. To resume the operation, simply press the VAC SEAL button again.
  • The buttons may have been pressed accidentally while the device was operating.
  • The device's battery has been depleted.
Air returns into the bag after sealing.
  • Check the sealed edge for wrinkles, which can cause air leaks. Flatten the bag opening before sealing.
  • Wipe off moisture, crumbs, or food residue near the opening. Reseal the bag if needed.
  • For juicy or wet foods, partially freeze them before vacuum sealing.
Bag does not seal properly.
  • Remove any wrinkles, moisture, or stuck food particles from the bag opening.
  • Wait at least 20 seconds between each seal to let the sealing strip cool down. Overheating can melt the bag.

  • Check the condition of the vacuum bag. If there are molten parts on the sealing, replace the bag with a new one.
