Electrical connection
CAUTION
▶ Before you connect the appliance, compare the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate with that of your mains power network. These data must agree so that no damage is sustained by the device.
▶ 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 effect).
◆ Insert the plug into the mains mains power socket.
Welding a tube film
NOTES ON THE FILM
The film width may not exceed 28 cm. Otherwise it cannot be welded correctly.
▶ Use only nylon-PE films 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 μ).
Otherwise the weld seam will not be tight and the appliance may be damaged. You can recognise films 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 film.
The supplied film is suitable for temperatures between -20°C and +100°C.
1) Cut the desired length for your bag from the tube film 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 ⑪ 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 ④. 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 ⑪ goes out.
CAUTION - PROPERTY DAMAGE!
If the red control lamp Ⓤ 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 by pressing the lid release ⑧ and flipping the lid ⑪ upwards. Remove the bag. This is now sealed 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 6 cm 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.
NOTE
- Wait 15 seconds before sealing the next bag to allow the appliance to cool down. During this cool-down phase, you cannot start the "seal" function.
Vacuuming the tube film
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.
If either one of the sealing rings 9/5 is damaged, simply pull it out of the groove and press the replacement sealing ring into the groove.
3) Press the [bell] button 14. The green control lamp 15 lights up and the appliance sucks the air out of the bag. As soon as all the air is sucked out, the green control lamp 15 goes out and the red control lamp 11 lights up. The appliance now seals the bag.
4) If both control lamps ⑪/⑮ have gone out, you can open the lid by pressing the lid catch ⑧ and flipping the lid ⑪ upwards. 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 15 will then go off. Press the [■■] button 14 again to resume the extraction process.
If the appliance has already switched to the sealing process and the red control lamp ⑪ is lit, the process can be stopped with the [■] button ⑬. The appliance then stops the sealing process.
▶ Once you have sealed 5 bags in a row, allow the appliance to cool down for about 1 minute.
During this cool-down phase, you cannot start the appliance. After the cool-down phase, you can use the appliance as normal.
TIP - "SOUS-VIDE COOKING"
As the supplied film is suitable for temperatures between -20°C and +100°C, 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 ④. Otherwise the welding wire ④ 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.
