Troubleshooting
The device does not function
Check to see if the device has been
connected to the power supply.
Examine the cable, the mains plug and
the device for damage.
Do not use the product if it has been
damaged.
A complete vacuum is not created within
the bag or automatic heat-sealing does not
occur
Ensure that the open end of the vacuum
bag is positioned fully within the vacuum
chamber
.

Check to see if the rubber seal
loosened.
Ensure that there is no dirt on the heating
element
or the rubber seal
7
Check to see if the device cover is closed
securely.
Ensure that no air can get into the vacuum
bag through a hole. Immerse the vacuum
bag in water to test this. If air bubbles rise
up, then the bag is losing air. Get a new
bag.
Air gets into the heat sealed bag after
vacuuming
This problem may occur if creases, oil or
other liquids are on the heat seal surface.
Open the bag and clean the heat seal
surface. Place the bag flat on the sealing
surface
to vacuum and heat seal it.

Check to see if air or liquid has entered
the vacuum bag because of the food
product. If this is the case, open the
vacuum bag to vacuum and heat-seal it
again. Alternatively, you can use another
vacuum bag. For food products which
contain a lot of water, we recommend
that you freeze the food product before
vacuuming and heat sealing it.
The vacuum process does not function
perfectly
If the heating element
heated, the bag may melt. Open the cover
of the vacuum sealer and allow the heating
element
This problem may occur if creases, oil or
other liquids are on the heat seal surface.
Wait 20 seconds after the vacuuming
process is finished before you press the
heat seal button
Food product shelf life
Vacuuming removes the air from food prod-
ucts. As a result, oxidisation and bacterial
has
contamination are prevented.
