Frequently Asked Questions - 16310228 Melissa

How to use the appliance for the first time?

Read the manual carefully. Plug in the appliance, fill the bag with at least 7 cm of free space, place the open end into the appliance, close the lid by pressing both sides until it clicks, then press VAC SEAL to vacuum seal or SEAL to seal only.

What types of bags can I use?

Only use bags recommended by the distributor, specially designed for vacuum sealing. Do not use cling film or standard bags, as this could damage the appliance.

Can I pack liquid or moist foods?

It is not recommended to vacuum seal liquid or runny foods, as the liquid could be sucked into the appliance and damage it. For moist foods, select the FOOD mode (moist foods) which extends the sealing time.

How to clean the appliance?

Unplug the appliance. Clean it with a damp cloth and a little mild detergent. Never use abrasive products or solvents. For the sealing line, you can perform a vacuum seal without a bag to burn off residues, then wipe before the line cools down.

What if the appliance overheats?

If multiple indicator lights flash after continuous use, the appliance has overheated. Let it cool for 5 to 10 minutes before using it again. Observe at least 60 seconds between each vacuum sealing and 30 seconds between each sealing.

How to use the vacuum hose for containers?

Attach the hose to the suction nozzle and to a wine stopper or vacuum container. Ensure at least 2.5 cm of free space in the container. Press the On/Off button for the hose; the appliance stops automatically when the vacuum pressure is reached. Do not use plastic bottles.

Can I cook food in the vacuum bag?

Yes, some foods can be cooked or reheated by placing the sealed bag in a dish of water or in the microwave. Before microwaving, poke small holes in the bag with a fork to release steam. Do not use in a conventional oven.

How to interrupt the current process?

Press the STOP button (5) at any time to stop the vacuum sealing or sealing. Then wait for the hot wire to cool down before opening the lid.

What if the bag sticks to the sealing line?

Do not leave the bag in the appliance after sealing, as it may stick to the hot wire during cooling. If bag residue remains, perform a seal without a bag to burn it off, then wipe the sealing line before it cools completely.

Where can I find spare parts or accessories?

Contact the retailer or visit the manufacturer's website www.adexi.eu for information on spare parts, accessories (bags, hoses, gaskets) and repairs. Never repair the appliance yourself.

- If the appliance, cord or plug have been damaged, have the appliance inspected and if necessary repaired by an authorised repairer.

- Connect to 230 V, 50 Hz only. The warranty is not valid if the appliance is connected to incorrect voltage.

- Never try to repair the appliance yourself. Please contact the store where you bought the appliance for repairs under warranty.

SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• The appliance must be allowed to cool for 1 minute between heat-sealing or vacuum-sealing.
• Do not try to vacuum-seal bags containing liquids or runny food-stuffs, as the contents of the bag may be sucked into the appliance and destroy it.

UK

- Only use bags recommended by the stock-ist. Do not use kitchen film or similar, as it may damage the appliance.

- Remove the bag as soon as it has been heat-sealed/sealed. If it is left in the appliance while the hot wire cools, it may stick to the appliance.

• Always keep the hot wire clean to avoid contaminating the food or substances to be packed.

• Always keep the hot wire clean of food residues and dirt so that the sealing power is not reduced.

- Do not use the vacuum or sealing function when the lid is open. Make sure that the lid is locked (using the release button) before using the vacuum or sealing function.

ADVANTAGES OF VACUUM SEALING

Vacuum-packed food keeps better and longer in the fridge or freezer compared to food in packaging with air in it.

Some types of food can also be cooked/reheated by putting the sealed bag into a dish of water or in a microwave oven. When cooking food in a microwave oven, prick holes in the bag with a fork so that steam can escape.

It is also possible to seal/vacuum-seal items such as personal papers, medicines, etc. for travelling, camping or sailing so they do not get wet.

VACUUM-SEALING BOTTLES AND CONTAINERS

If you have a vacuum hose and vacuum containers or wine corks, you can use the appliance to suck the air out of the containers or wine bottles using the hose provided, allowing the contents to last longer.

• Attach the hose to the vacuum nozzle (8).
• Attach the hose to the wine cork or the vacuum container. There must be at least 2.5 cm clearance at the top of the container.
• Press the on/off button for the vacuum hose (7). The indicator light flashes. The appliance automatically switches off once the necessary vacuum pressure has been formed in the container.
• Do not use plastic bottles or similar.

Using the blade

- Roll out the desired length of bag material so that it lies smooth against the lid. Run the blade across the lid to cut the bag off at the desired length. Seal one end to form a bag before putting food in the bag and vacuum sealing it.
