Frequently Asked Questions - VS5164 Vevor

How to make a bag from a roll?

Open the top cover, place the bag cutter at one end of the support and pull the roll to the desired length. Place the cutting support, slide the cutter to cut the bag. Place one end of the bag on the sealing element, close the lid until it clicks, then press the Manual sealing button to seal the end.

How to use the pulse vacuum function?

Press the Pulse vacuum button to start suction. Observe the pressure inside the bag and release the button as soon as the desired pressure is reached. Then press Manual sealing to seal the bag. This function allows you to control the vacuum for delicate foods.

What to do if air is not completely removed from the bag?

Check that the open end of the bag is properly placed in the vacuum chamber and that the air intake is not blocked. Ensure the foam gaskets are clean and not deformed. If the bag leaks, test it by submerging it in water: bubbles indicate a leak. Use only appropriate vacuum bags with channels.

How to clean the machine?

Always unplug the appliance before cleaning. Never immerse the machine in water. Use a warm, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away food residues. Dry thoroughly, especially the foam gaskets around the vacuum chamber.

What are the important safety precautions?

Read all instructions before use. Do not touch the hot sealing element. Do not immerse the cord or plug in water. Do not leave children unattended. Always unplug before cleaning and do not use the appliance if the cord is damaged.

Why does the bag let air back in after sealing?

This may be due to a leak along the seal seam: wrinkles, debris, grease or liquid on the bag. Open the bag, clean and smooth the end, then reseal. Natural fermentation of foods (e.g., fresh fruits) can also produce gases. In that case, open the bag and discard the food if spoiled.

How to marinate with the canister?

Remove the hose accessory from the inner lid, insert it into the port on the unit and the center hole of the canister lid. Check that the pressure is set to Normal or Gentle. Press the Marinate button: the machine will perform 5 suction/release cycles (about 6 minutes). The indicator light turns off at the end.

What to do if the canister does not vacuum?

Make sure the hose is properly connected to the appliance and the canister, and that the canister button is in the seal position. Press lightly on the lid at the start of suction to prevent leaks. Check that the lid gasket is clean and undamaged. If the problem persists, test the machine with a bag.

Which foods should not be vacuum packed in bags?

Avoid foods with sharp edges (bones, shells) that can puncture the bag. Do not vacuum pack large amounts of hot liquids (risk of overflow). Mushrooms, soft cheeses may release gases. Use a container for moist or delicate foods.

How to replace the gasket or Teflon tape?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool. Open the lid. For the gasket: remove the old one from the groove (lid and chamber) and place a new one by pressing it in with your fingers. For the Teflon tape: peel off the old one from the sealing bar and stick the new one avoiding wrinkles and bubbles. Ensure it completely covers the heating element.

VI. Cord storage box

1. Put the power cord into the storage box when not using the machine, located at the back of the machine. Do not wrap the cord around the appliance.

Hints for best vacuuming performance

1. Do not put too much stuff inside the bag: leave enough empty space at the open end of the bag so that the bag can be placed in the vacuum chamber area without creating wrinkles or ripples.
2. Do not wet the open end of the bag. Wet bags will cause difficulty in heat-sealing tightly. If the food has moisture, or the bag is wet, choose the 'Moist' function which is designed for a longer sealing time and seals better for wet bags.
3. Clean and straighten the open end of the bag before sealing. Make sure nothing is left on the open area of the bag, no wrinkles or creases should appear on the open panel. Foreign objects or creased bags may cause difficulty in sealing tightly.
4. Do not leave too much air inside the bag. Press the bag to allow

air to escape from the bag before vacuuming it. Too much air inside the bag increases the vacuum pump loading and may cause the motor to have insufficient power to draw away all the air inside the bag.

1. Do not vacuum package objects with sharp points like fish bones or hard shells! Sharp points may penetrate and tear the bag! You may use a container instead of a bag to store such items.
2. It is suggested to vacuum seal one bag within 1 minute, to let the appliance resume enough.
3. If it's not reach the required vacuum for some unknowable reason, the vacuum system will shut automatically after 60 seconds, in this situation, please check if the bag is leak, or not placed properly or other reasons.
4. Make sure there is no crack or deformation, or small particles resting on the foam gaskets around the vacuum chamber. When this happens, take it out and wash and dry it thoroughly, or replace with a new one.
5. During bag vacuum packaging process, small amounts of liquids, crumbs or food particles can be inadvertently pulled into the vacuum chamber, clogging the pump and damaging your appliance. To avoid this, freeze moist and juicy foods first before sealing bags or place folded paper towel near the inside top of the bag. For powdery or fine-grained foods, avoid overfilling bags. You may also place a coffee filter inside before vacuum packaging.
6. Pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before vacuum packaging for best results.
7. Liquids need to be cooled before vacuum packing. Hot liquids will bubble up and over the top of the jar when vacuum packed. Note: attachment is necessary for sealing jars.
8. Store perishable foods in the freezer or refrigerator. Vacuum packing extends the shelf life of foods, but does not preserve them.
9. Fill a bag about 2/3 full with water, seal the end (don't vacuum). Use the bag and use for ice in the cooler, or ice packs for sports injuries.
10. Many foods are sold pre-packed in commercial vacuum bags such as cheese and deli meats. Now, you can maintain the taste and freshness of these foods by re-packaging them with vacuum sealer bags after the commercially packed bags have been opened.
11. Pantry items such as flour, rice, mixes for cakes and pancakes, all stay fresher longer when vacuum packed. Nuts and condiments maintain their flavor while rancidity is kept out.
12. For objects with sharp points and edges, such as bones or dried pasta, pad the edges with paper towels to keep them from puncturing the bag.
13. There are many non-food uses for vacuum packing. Keep camping supplies such as matches, first aid kits, and clothing clean and dry. Keep flares for auto emergencies ready. Keep silver and collectibles untarnished. 1. The main function of this appliance is to store all kinds of foods for freshness, longer flavor, and convenience. In general, vacuum packaging keeps food fresh up to three times as long as traditional food storage methods. Once this appliance becomes an indispensable part of your life, it will reduce food spoilage and save money.

a) Cook in advance to vacuum seal and store individual portions or entire meals. This vacuum bag is not recommended for microwave or boil-in-bag cooking; please use the general cooking method to re-heat the vacuum-sealed foods. b) Prepare foods in advance for picnics, camping trips, or barbecues. c) Eliminate freezer burn. d) Package foods such as meat, fish, poultry, seafood, and vegetables to freeze or refrigerate. e) Package dry foods such as beans, nuts, and cereals to store longer.

1. It's ideal to prepackage ingredients as well as individual portions for health-conscious individuals, such as those who are weight-conscious or on diets or nutritional regimes with special requirements.
2. This system can also be used to store and protect other items: valuable items such as photos, important documents, stamp collections, book collections, jewellery, cards, comics, etc.; hardware items such as screws, nails, studs, and bolts; medicines, band-aids, and other first-aid items, etc.

Note:

After finishing the vacuum work, please always leave the machine cover open. Do not fasten the cover, as it will deform the form g and affect the machine function.

FOOD STORAGE AND SAFETY INFORMATION

This Vacuum Sealer will change the way you purchase and store foods. Once you are accustomed to vacuum packing, it will become an indispensable part of your food preparation. When preparing and vacuum packing foods using your vacuum sealer, there are certain procedures that must be followed to ensure food quality and safety. Review this section carefully for your protection:

1. Chemical reactions in the food to air, temperature, moisture, and enzyme action, growth of microorganisms, or contamination from insects will cause food spoilage.
2. The main element to cause food to lose nutritive value, texture, flavor, and overall quality is oxygen in the air. Most microorganism growth relies on air, for it will carry moisture into and out of foods unless protected with moisture-proof packing. Frozen foods being exposed to freezer air will result in freezer burn.
3. The vacuum seal packing removes up to 90% of the air from the package. It's approximately 21% oxygen in the air, so 90% air removal leaves a 2% to 3% residual oxygen level in vacuum-sealed foods. When the oxygen level is at or below 5%, as you know, most microorganisms are inhibited from growth.
4. In general, there are three categories of microorganisms: mold, yeast, and bacteria. They are present everywhere, but only under certain conditions can they cause problems.
5. In a low oxygen environment or in the absence of moisture, mold cannot grow; In moisture, sugar, and a moderate temperature circumstance, yeast can grow with or without air. Refrigeration will slow the growth of yeast and freezing stops it completely; Bacteria can grow with or without

air.

1. One of the extremely dangerous types of bacteria is Clostridium botulinum, and they can grow under the right conditions without air: in the temperature range of 40°F to 115°F (4°C to 46°C). Conditions for growth are foods lacking acid, low oxygen environment, and temperatures greater than 40°F (4°C) for extended time.
2. Frozen, dried, high in acid, salt, or sugar foods can be resistant to botulism. Non-acid foods which include meats, seafood, lye-cured olives, poultry, fish, eggs, and mushrooms; low-acid foods which are mostly vegetables; medium-acid foods include overripe tomatoes, onions, chili peppers, figs, and cucumbers are easy to be infected by botulinum.
3. Foods most susceptible to botulism should be refrigerated for short-term storage and frozen for long-term storage, and consumed immediately after heating.
4. Some dried foods, such as flour and cereals, may contain insect larvae. If not vacuum-sealed, larvae may hatch during storage and contaminate the foods. To prevent weevils and other insects from hatching, it is necessary to store these foods in vacuum-sealed packages.
5. Avoid spoilage: foods should be stored at low temperatures, as few microorganisms can grow without air.
6. If temperatures in the refrigerator are greater than 40°F (4°C) (especially for extended periods), it will support the growth of harmful microorganisms, so we should keep the temperature at 40°F (4°C) or below.
7. When the temperature for the freezer is 0°F (-17°C) or lower, it is suitable for storing foods, although freezing does not kill microorganisms, it retards their growth.
8. The vacuum-sealed storage temperature will affect dried foods: the shelf life is extended 3-4 times for every 18°F (10°C) drop in temperature.
9. When packaging large volumes of meat, fish, or any food products, we advise the following:
10. Make sure to properly clean your hands, all utensils and surfaces to be used for cutting and vacuum packing foods.
11. Once you've packed perishable foods, refrigerate or freeze them immediately. Don't leave them sitting at room temperature.
12. Vacuum packing will increase the shelf life of dry foods. Foods with high fat content develop rancidity due to oxygen and warm temperature. Vacuum packaging extends the shelf life of foods such as nuts, coconut or cereals. Store in a cool, dark place.
13. Vacuum packing will not extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables such as apples, bananas, potatoes and root vegetables unless peeled before vacuum packing.
14. Vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage emit gases when vacuum packed fresh for refrigeration. To prepare these foods for vacuum packing, blanch and freeze.

GENERAL RULES FOR FOOD SAFETY

Food safety rules are based on scientific study as well as consensus. The following rules are important for food safety and optimal food storage.

1. Once you have heated, defrosted or un-refrigerated perishable food, consume them immediately.
2. After opening canned food or commercially vacuum packed foods, they can be re-vacuumed packed. Follow the instructions to refrigerate after opening and store re-vacuumed packages properly.
3. Don't defrost foods in hot water or via other heat sources. It doesn't matter whether they are vacuum packed or not.
4. Don't consume foods if they are perishable and have been left at room temperature for more than a few hours. This is especially important if they have been prepared with a thick sauce, in a vacuum package, or in a low oxygen environment.
5. Spread vacuum packages evenly throughout the refrigerator or freezer to cool down food temperature quickly.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Vacuum sealer

1. Always unplug the unit before cleaning.
2. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
3. Avoid using abrasive products or materials to clean the unit, as they will scratch the surface.
4. Use a mild dishwashing soap and a warm, damp cloth to wipe off food residue or clean around components.
5. Dry thoroughly before using again.

Note: The foam gaskets around the vacuum chamber should be dried thoroughly before re-assembling. When re-assembling, be careful to prevent any damage, and assemble in the original position to ensure no vacuum leaking.

Vacuum bags

1. Wash bags in warm water with a mild dishwashing soap.
2. When washing bags in the dishwasher, turn bags inside out and spread them over the top rack of the dishwasher, so the entire surface is exposed to the washing water.
3. Dry thoroughly before reusing.

IMPORTANT: To avoid possible illness, do not reuse bags after storing raw meats, raw fish, or greasy foods. Do not reuse bags that have been microwaved or boiled.

Accessories

Wash all vacuum accessories in warm water with a mild dishwashing soap, but do not immerse the cover in water.

1. Canister bases (not lids) are top rack dishwasher safe. But canister covers should be wiped down with a damp cloth.
2. Ensure the accessories are thoroughly dry before reusing.
3. The canister and cover are not allowed to be used in the microwave or freezer.

Storing Your Vacuum Sealer:

1. -Keep the unit in a flat and safe place, out of the reach of children.
2. Remember to make sure the lid of the appliance is unlocked when not in use and in storage. Keeping the cover locked will distort the foam gaskets, causing leaking.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Nothing happens when I try to vacuum package.

1. Check the power cord to see if it is firmly plugged into the electrical outlet.
2. Check the switch to see if its setting is "O".
3. Examine the power cord for any damage.
4. See if the electrical outlet is operative by plugging in another appliance.
5. Twist the Fuse Cap off, then look at the clear tube to see if the fuse is darkened. If the fuse is darkened, it will need to be replaced with a standard 10-amp Buss Fuse.
6. If your appliance has a mode switch, make sure it is set to the cc mode. Refer to the above operating instructions.
7. Make sure the bag is placed correctly inside the vacuum chamber and beneath the air intake.

Air is not removed from the bag completely:

1. To seal properly, the open end of the bag should be resting entirely inside the vacuum chamber area.
2. Check the sealing strip and the foam gasket beneath the lid for debris or misposition. Make sure there is no breaking or distortion of the foam seal gasket on both the cover and on the base around the vacuum chamber. Wipe and smooth them back into place.
3. The vacuum bag may have a leak. To test, seal the bag with some air, submerge it in water, and apply pressure. Bubbles indicate a leak. Reseal or use another bag.
4. Use only the specific vacuum bags with vacuum channels provided by the manufacturer.
5. Leaks along the seal can be caused by wrinkles, debris, crumbs, grease, or liquids. Reopen the bag, wipe the top inside of the bag, and smooth it out along the sealing strip before resealing.

The machine does not turn to seal after vacuuming:

1. There is a vacuum pressure sensor built into this machine. The machine will not turn to seal automatically if the vacuum pressure inside the bag is not able to reach the predetermined vacuum pressure. Check

the sealing strip and the foam gasket beneath the lid for debris and correct position. Wipe clean and smooth them back into place, and try again.

1. Make sure there is no breaking or distortion of the foam seal gaskets on both the cover and on the base around the vacuum chamber. Take it out of the groove, wash and dry it thoroughly; or replace with a new foam gasket (get it from where you bought it or your nearest service center).
2. The vacuum bag may have a leak. To test, seal the bag with some air, submerge it in water, and apply pressure. Bubbles indicate a leak. Reseal or use another bag.
3. Leaks along the seal can be caused by wrinkles, debris, crumbs, grease, or liquids from the bag. Reopen the bag, wipe the top inside of the bag, and smooth it out along the sealing strip before resealing.

1. Leaks along the seal can be caused by wrinkles, debris, crumbs, grease, or liquids. Reopen the bag, wipe the top inside of the bag, and smooth it out along the sealing strip before resealing.
2. The release of natural gases or fermentation from foods (such as fresh fruits and vegetables) may occur. Open the bag if you think food has started to spoil, and discard the food. Lack of refrigeration or fluctuating temperature in the refrigerator can cause food to spoil. Do not consume food that is not consumed immediately.
3. Check the bag for a puncture or hole which may have released the vacuum. Do not vacuum package hard items with sharp points (like bones or nut shell cracks). Cushion sharp edges in the contents bag with paper towels.

The bag melts:

If the sealing strip or sealing element overheats and melts the bag, it may be necessary to lift the lid and allow the sealing strip or heating element to cool for a few minutes.

The canister will not vacuum:

1. Make sure the adaptor was well connected both to the appliance and the canister firmly.
2. Check if the knob of the canister was on the position of "seal".
3. Press the lids or the hose adaptor at the very beginning of vacuuming to avoid leaking from the cover seal.
4. Check if there are significant damages or smashes; if yes, change for a new one.
5. Check the function of the vacuum sealer.
6. Make sure the rim of the canister is clean enough. If all the above situations are excluded, please contact the appointed service agency.
