Inside the appliance there is a safety switch that will allow it to be started only after the cover is properly closed. Do not press it with the cover open, it is forbidden to lock the safety switch.

Prepare the bag for use in the packaging machine. Only use special bags intended for use in vacuum packaging machines. The bag can be cut by matching its size to the product being packaged. Note that the three edges of the bag are always sealed in the factory, and the trimmed edge is equal to (II) and not wider than the maximum width of the bags listed in the table. When choosing the size, make sure that there is at least 5 cm of the bag left from its edge to the packaged product.

You can also use the compartment for film on a roll. Place the roll in the compartment (IV), pull out the desired length and then use the built-in cutter to cut the film from the roll. The compartment is able to accommodate a roll of film up to 5 meters long.

Place the bag so that it is above the heating strip and its edge to be sealed is completely inside the cover gasket (III). Align both sides of the bag so that no kinks, bends or wrinkles are formed. Connect the appliance to power supply. Close the cover so that the latches on both sides engage properly.

The appliance is started by pressing one of the control panel buttons.

The "Dry" button is used to vacuum packaging of dry foods. By pressing this button, the machine will automatically suck the air out of the bag, and when the suction is complete, it will seal the edges of the bag to close it tightly.

The “Moist” button is used to vacuum packaging of wet foods. By pressing this button, the machine will automatically suck the air out of the bag, and when the suction is complete, it will seal the edges of the bag to close it tightly.

Caution! Dry the wet food before packaging, the bag should not contain more than 10 ml of liquid after placing the food.

The “Pulse” button is used to pulse air suction. Use this mode for vacuum-packaging of delicate foods. Press and hold this button to suck the air, and release the pressure to interrupt suction. In this mode, the edges of the bag are not automatically sealed and tightly closed. This must be done manually using the “Seal” button.

The “Canister” button is used to extract air from the vacuum container connected to the packaging machine with a special hose. The “Seal” button is only used to weld the edges of the bag. For example, in the case of sealing film from a roll or after the impulse air suction is completed.

The "Cancel" button is used to interrupt the operation of the appliance at any time.

The indicator light goes off to indicate the end of the sealing process, regardless of whether it was previously suctioned or not. Only then can you unlock and open the cover.

CAUTION! The heating strip may be hot. Avoid touching it when removing the bag from the machine. The heating strip is covered with a special protective tape. Do not remove it.

Check whether the bag is positioned properly inside the welding machine. If the device automatically switched off as a result of overheating, wait for its total cool down.
Air is not sucked out of the bag	Check whether the bag is positioned properly inside the welding machine. Check whether the welded edge of the bag is even, whether it does not have wrinkles, folds, or holes. Check whether the gaskets are not contaminated.
Bag melts	Heating bar is too hot, you should disconnect the device from the power supply and allow it to completely cool down.
The air gets back to the bag	The bag is damaged. Check whether the bag is not damaged. Packaged products with sharp edges can make a hole in the bag. Check whether the weld is correct, if the liquid has been sucked out with air, it could prevent the correct welding of bag. Check whether the gaskets and welding strip are not contaminated.
The bag is not welded	Check whether the bag is positioned properly inside the welding machine. Check whether the welded edge of the bag is even, whether it does not have wrinkles, folds, or holes. Check whether the gaskets are not contaminated. If the device automatically switched off as a result of overheating, wait for its total cool down.

Tips on vacuum packaging of food

Vacuum packaging allows you to delay the process of food spoilage. Vacuum packed foods slower lose their nutritional value and longer remain fresh.

ATTENTION! Vacuum cannot substitute the cooling and freezing of food. Any type of food, which can spoil, requires storage in a cool place or freezing, requires the same treatment after vacuum packing.

The best results can be achieved for vacuum packaging of fresh food. If the quality of food deteriorates, the vacuum may delay this process, but it never can stop it. Anaerobic bacteria and microorganisms, that can operate in an environment with low oxygen content, continue to have an impact on the deterioration of the food quality.

Cooking, defrosting and reheating in water of the vacuum foiled food allows to preserve the flavor of dishes and makes it easier to maintain cleanliness. When you are heating the vacuum packed foods with microwave oven you should always punch the bag in several places, which will allow the bag to release hot air. Vacuum packed food can be heated by immersion and heating it in the warm water, the water temperature must not exceed 75 degrees C.

ATTENTION! It is forbidden to heat the vacuum foiled food in any different way, by, for example, using fat or by placing it in the oven.

ATTENTION! The food, which is prone to be spoiled, should be thawed using the microwave oven or by placing it in the refrigerator. You should never thaw the food by leaving it at the room temperature.

In the case of meat and fish packaging, it is advisable to put first the food for 1-2 hours in the freezer. This will allow to bind the juices, which are naturally present in the food, and also will allow to keep shape of the food. If it is not possible to initially pre-cool the food it is recommended that you place the paper towel, which is rolled loosely, between food and edge of the bag you want to weld. The towel will absorb juices that leak out from food during air suction.

In the case of cheese it is recommended to pack the remainder of the cheese after every use. If you use the bag, which is large enough, you can use it again, after former removal of welding.

Attention! Due to risks associated with the operation of anaerobic bacteria, the soft cheese should never be vacuum packed.

Before vacuum packing of vegetables it is recommended that you blanche them. Blanching stops the action of enzymes, that may lead to the loss of flavor, color and structure. To blanche the vegetables you dip them in the tens of seconds in boiling water, and then remove and immerse in cold water. Blanching time depends on the type of vegetable. The finer and more delicate vegetables the shorter is blanching time. Blanching also can be made using a microwave or steam.

Attention! When stored the vegetables emit gases. Therefore, after blanching and vacuum packaging, it is recommended that you store them in the freezer.

Attention! Due to the risks associated with the operation of anaerobic bacteria, fresh mushrooms, onion and garlic should never be vacuum packed.

It is recommend to vacuum pack the fine products in their original packaging. This will prevent the leakage of product small particles with sucked air into the Interior of the machine, which may even prevent the proper vacuum packaging.

Before vacuum packing, the food, which is in liquid state, for example, soups, should be frozen in a separate vessel, which shape and size should be selected so the frozen product would fit in the bag. After freezing, you should remove the product from the vessel, put the food into bag, vacuum package, and then put it back in the freezer. Vacuum packed food can be heated by immersion and heating it in the warm water, the water temperature must not exceed 75 degrees C.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

After each use, you should disconnect the power cable plug from a mains outlet. Wait until the device is completely cool and proceed to maintenance.

ATTENTION! Do not immerse the device in water or other liquid. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents.

Clean the device housing with a soft cloth moistened in solution of water and mild cleanser. Wipe it dry. If the interior of the device was contaminated, for example with food, clean it with a soft cloth or paper towel. Clean the gaskets and heating strip with a soft cloth moistened in solution of water and mild cleanser. Avoid excessive pressure when cleaning. Use of sharp objects for cleaning can destroy the heating bar or gaskets.

Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, make sure that all parts have been cleaned and drained. Close the cover, but not snap it.
