Troubleshooting
1. Nothing happens when I try
to vacuum package
Check that the vacuum sealer is
connected to a working plug
Make sure bag is placed correctly
in the vacuum chamber and
beneath the air intake
2. Air is not removed from the
bag completely
Make sure the open side of bag
is resting entirely inside vacuum
chamber area.
Check sealing strip, heating
element surface, and the foam
gasket beneath the lid for debris
and position. Make sure no
breaking or distortion of the
foam seal gaskets on both the
cover and on the base around
the vacuum chamber. Wipe clean
and smooth them back into
place.
Vacuum bag may have a leak.
Reseal or use another bag.
Ensure top cover is pushed down
and locked on both ends of the
machine at the beginning of the
operation before starting the
vacuuming process.
Leaks caused by wrinkles, debris
crumbs, grease or liquids from
the bag. Reopen bag, wipe the
top inside of the bag and
smooth it out along the sealing
strip before resealing.
3. The machine does not turn
to seal after vacuuming
The machine will not turn to seal
automatically if the vacuum
pressure inside the bag is not
able to reach to the predeter-
mined vacuum pressure. Check
sealing strip and foam gasket
beneath the lid for debris, wipe
clean and try again.
Make sure no breaking or distor-
tion of the foam seal gaskets on
both the cover and on the base
