- Ensure that the power cable is undamaged and is not routed over hot surfaces and/or sharp edges.
Ensure that the power cable is not taut or kinked.
Do not let the power cable hang over edges (trip wire eff ect).
Insert the plug into the mains mains power socket.

Welding a tube fi lm

NOTES ON THE FILM

The fi lm width may not exceed 28~cm . Otherwise it cannot be welded correctly.

• Use only nylon-PE fims with a structure (points or grooves) on one side and that have a structure (points or grooves) on one side and a thickness of approximately 0.17 - 0.29 mm ( 170 - 290 ).

Otherwise the weld seam will not be tight and the appliance may be damaged. You can recognise fi lm's of this type from the information on the packaging. The quality of the weld seam will vary depending on the type and thickness of the fi lm.

The supplied fim is suitable for temperatures between -20^ and +100^ .

1) Cut the desired length for your bag from the tube fi lm using a pair of scissors. Cut as straight as possible.
2) Open the appliance lid ① by pressing the lid release ⑧ and opening the lid ① upwards.
3) Lay the open end of the bag as far into the appliance so that the opening of the bag is located centrally under the lower sealing ring 5. The bag should be inserted no further than the rear limiters 6 and must lie between the front limiters 7. If the bag lies over one or both of the two limiters 7, then the bag cannot be correctly welded.

NOTE

The bag opening must lie flat on the welding wire. Otherwise the welding does not work properly.

4) Close the appliance lid ①. The press seal ⑩ presses the bag onto the welding wire ④, to create a smooth seam. Ensure that both corners of the appliance lid ① click closed. If necessary, press them down once again on the markings and so that the appliance lid ① clicks into place and locks shut.
5) Press the button 12. The red control lamp 11 lights up. As soon as the sealing process is finished, the red control lamp 11 goes off.

NOTE

• You can halt the sealing process at any time by pressing the button 13. The red control lamp 1 goes out.

CAUTION - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

If the red control lamp ① does not go out after a maximum of 10 seconds, there is a fault with the appliance.

• Remove the plug from the mains power socket immediately. Do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Contact the Customer Service department.

6) Open the appliance lid ① and remove the bag. This is now welded at one end.

NOTE

• Ensure that the weld seam is properly closed. A correct weld seam should be a smooth, straight stripe without any creases.

7) Fill the bag. You must leave at least 6cm of the bag free up to the edge to be welded.

CAUTION - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• Fill the bag so that no food scraps or liquids can leak out during welding and get into the appliance.

8) If you do not want to vacuum the bag, you can now weld the other, open side.

Vacuuming the tube fi lm

You can also suck the air out of the bag (vacuum) during welding:

CAUTION - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• Do not evacuate bags that contain liquids. These will get into the appliance and damage it.

1) Lay the open end of the bag as far into the appliance so that the opening of the bag is located centrally under the lower sealing ring 5. The bag should be inserted no further than the rear limiters 6 and must lie between the front limiters 7. Otherwise the vacuuming and welding will not function correctly:

2) Close the appliance lid ①. Ensure that both corners of the appliance lid ① click closed. If necessary, press them down once again on the markings and so that the appliance lid ① clicks into place and locks shut.

NOTE

• Ensure that the upper 9 and the lower sealing rings 5 are not damaged! Otherwise the device cannot suck the air out of the bag.

3) Press the button. The green control lamp lights up and the appliance sucks the air out of the bag. As soon as all the air is sucked out, the red control lamp lights up. The appliance now seals the bag.
4) Once both control lamps 1/15 have extinguished, you can open the lid and remove the vacuum-sealed bag.

NOTE

• You can halt the air extraction process at any time by pressing the button 13. The green control lamp will then go off. Press the button again to resume the extraction process.

If the appliance has already switched to the sealing process and the red control lamp 1 is lit, the process can be stopped with the button 3. The appliance then stops the sealing process.

TIP - "SOUS-VIDE COOKING"

As the supplied fi lm is suitable for temperatures between -20^ and +100^ , it can be used for the so-called "sous-vide" cooking process (vacuum cooking).

"Sous-vide" is French and means "under vacuum".

In vacuum cooking, the food (usually fish or meat, but vegetables can also be used) is vacuum-sealed in a bag and then cooked in water or steam cooked at a relatively low temperature (50 to 90 C). The advantage of this is that volatile flavours or aroma are not lost during cooking. The food does not dry out and the vitamins and flavours are preserved. Herbs or spices that are vacuum-sealed in the bag with the food give off a more intense flavour.

Cleaning

DANGER

Risk of fatal injury from electrocution!

• Remove the plug from the mains power socket before beginning to clean the device.
  Ensure that no moisture can penetrate the device during cleaning.

CAUTION

Possible damage to the appliance.

• Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents, as these may corrode the surface of the casing.
  Do not use any hard or sharp objects to remove any adhesive from the welding wire. Otherwise the welding wire or the insulation could be damaged.

Cleaning the appliance

Clean the surface of the housing of the appliance with a lightly moistened cloth and a mild detergent.
Wipe off the upper 9 and the lower sealing rings 5, as well as the press seal 10 with a damp cloth. Ensure that the appliance is dry before using it again.

Storage

The appliance has a built-in cable retainer 3 on the underside of the housing, on which you can wrap the power cable when it is not in use. This prevents the power cable from getting caught or soiled, or becoming a source of danger by hanging loosely down.

CAUTION

Possible damage to the appliance.

• Do not click the appliance lid ① closed for storage! When the appliance lid ① is clicked closed it exerts permanent pressure on the upper ⑨ and lower sealing rings ⑤, as well as the press seal ⑩. This can negatively affect their function.

Store the appliance in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Disposal

Under no circumstances should you dispose of the appliance with the normal household waste.

This product is subject to the provisions of European Directive 2012/19/EU (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment).

Dispos of the appliance via an approved waste disposal company or your municipal waste disposal facility. Please observe applicable regulations. In case of doubt, please contact your waste disposal centre.
