5. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or heated oven.
Extreme caution must be used when moving products containing hot
liquids.
Important Tips
1. Vacuum sealing is NOT a substitute for the heat process of canning.
Perishables still need to be refrigerated or frozen.
2. For best results, use only with FoodSaver
Accessories.
3. During the vacuum sealing process, small amounts of liquids, crumbs
or food particles can be inadvertently pulled into the Vacuum Channel.
Empty the Drip Tray after each use.
4. Avoid overfilling; always leave at least 3 inches (7.62 cm) of bag material
between bag contents and top of bag. This allows room for the bag
material to cinch tightly against the food and prevents the bag from
pulling out of the Vacuum Channel during the sealing process. Then
leave at least one additional inch (2.54 cm) of bag material for each
time you plan to reuse bag.
5. Do not create your own side seams for a FoodSaver
are manufactured with a special side seam, which is sealed all the way
to the outer edge.
6. To prevent wrinkles in the seal when vacuum sealing bulky items, gently
stretch bag flat while inserting bag into Vacuum Channel and continue
to hold bag until Vacuum Pump starts.
7. When you are vacuum sealing items with sharp edges (dry spaghetti,
silverware, etc.), protect bag from punctures by wrapping item in soft
cushioning material, such as a paper towel. You may want to use a

8. When using accessories, remember to leave one inch (2.54 cm) of
space at top.
9. Pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before vacuum sealing for best
results. (See "Guidelines" for food storage safety, pg 14-19.)
10. Wait 20 seconds between seals to allow appliance to cool.
11. Never store lid in Operate position as gaskets may become compressed.
