Intermittent operation
The appliance is designed for intermittent
operation only, ie it must be allowed to cool
down for around 30 seconds after each
cycle, before it can be used again. Also,
to prevent overheating, it must be allowed
to cool down for two minutes after a total
operating time of 10 minutes.
Using the cutter
∙ To cut bags or film to the required size,
fold out the cutter at the rear of the unit
and slide the bag/film between the unit
and the cutter. Close the cutter and pull
the blade over the bag/film.
∙ Caution: The cutter blade is extremely
sharp.
Use with bags
Preparing the bags
∙ Put the prepared food into a bag,
ensuring that the bag opening remains
absolutely clean and dry.
Hint: For easy, clean filling of the
bags, turn down the rim around the
opening a few cm. After filling, unroll
the rim again.
∙ Fill the bags only up to max. 5 cm below
the opening.
∙ If necessary, the food may be dabbed
with a kitchen towel first to remove any
residual liquid from the outside.
Preparing for sealing
∙ Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet.

Air extraction and sealing:
∙ Place the filled bag with its open end
connecting with the two attachment
points in the vacuum chamber Ensure
that the suction opening is not blocked
by the bag. The bag opening must
be clean and free of any wrinkles or
creases where it touches the sealing
bar.
∙ Fold the cover down.
∙ Push the outer corners of the cover
firmly down until it is heard locking into
place on both sides.
Press the Vacuum&Seal button. The
LED Vacuum&Seal remains lit until
vacuuming is complete.
∙ Ensure that the vacuum pump does not
suck in any liquid. But if it does, press
the Stop button immediately.
∙ Once all the air is extracted, the bag
opening is automatically sealed. The
Seal LED remains lit until the sealing
process is complete.
∙ Push the 'Release cover' buttons on the
side to open the cover and remove the
sealed bag.
∙ Hint: Keep monitoring the extraction
when processing delicate foods.
Once the vacuum is sufficient, use
the Stop button to interrupt the
suction process. Then start the
sealing process manually using the
Seal button.
