Vacuum packing using sachets
1. Fill the vacuum sachet with food.
2. Clean and, if necessary, smooth down the open end of the sachet. Make sure that there are no
wrinkles, folds or spices at the end of the sachet, as these prevent the appliance from sealing the
sachet completely.
3. Now insert the mains plug into the socket.
4. Open the lid on the vacuum packer (1)
5. Place the sachet with the open side in the vacuum chamber (4). Make sure that the end of the
sachet is roughly in the middle of the vacuum chamber, in order to produce an optimal vacuum.
6. Hold the vacuum sachet in place and close the lid.
7. Press and hold down the appliance’s lid and turn the lock-release lever (8) towards the lock icon
until it is almost vertical.
8. The appliance is pre-set to vacuum pack dry foods, such as coffee beans, nuts and rice. If you
would like to vacuum pack moist foods, such as marinated meat or blanched vegetables, press the
MOIST DRY button once. The ring of light around the button will turn from white to blue to indi-
cate that the Moist function has been activated. Note: After vacuum packing moist food, empty
and clean the detachable vacuum chamber (4).
9. Then press the “SEAL VACUUM” button to seal the sachet after vacuuming. The ring of light
around the button turns white. After vacuuming, the “Seal” button also lights up again until the
welding process is complete.
Warning: do not end the welding process by yourself, because the welding may not have fi nished.
Note: If you have selected the wrong function by mistake, you can interrupt the process at any
time by pressing the “STOP” button.
10. The appliance will turn off automatically once the process is complete.
11. To seal the sachet without fi rst producing a vacuum, press the SEAL button. The ring of light will
turn white for the duration of the sealing process.
12. Turn the lock-release lever (8) towards the lock icon, then open the lid on the vacuum packer.
13. If you have fi nished using the appliance, clean it, close the lid and turn the lock-release lever (8)
until it reaches a horizontal position. In this position, the lid is only gently locked and the seals are
protected.
Vacuum packing using fi lm rolls in the detachable fi lm box
1. Push back the cover on the detachable fi lm box (2).
2. Place the fi lm roll in the fi lm box. Ensure that the fi lm roll is positioned
in the fi lm box as shown in the image.
Then close the cover on the fi lm box again.
3. Pull the fi lm roll out of the fi lm box. The fi lm should come out at least 10
cm over the front edge of the fi lm box.
4. Carefully lower the vacuum packer onto the hooks on the sides of the fi lm box. Make sure that the
guides on both sides of the vacuum packer click into place. You will hear the click.
5. Now insert the mains plug into the socket.
6. Open the lid on the vacuum packer.
7. Remove the detachable cutting unit (6). You can remove this easily using
the snap-on hooks on each side of the cutting unit.
8. Fold the excess fi lm into the vacuum packer and reinsert the cutting unit. Make sure that the cut-
ting unit is level and clicks into place on both sides.
9. Place the fi lm sleeve with the open end on the welding bar (5). The fi lm may enter the vacuum
chamber (4) slightly at this point.
10. Hold the fi lm sleeve in position and close the lid.
11. Then press the SEAL button to seal the fi lm sleeve. The ring of light will turn white for the duration
of the sealing process.
12. After sealing, pull the fi lm upwards to the desired length.
13. Fold the fi lm forwards and cut it by pushing the knife that is integrated
into the cutting unit from left to right.
Note: in order to cut the fi lm optimally, it must be pressed against the
cutting unit.
14. The resulting fi lm pouch can now be fi lled with food and vacuumed and sealed as described under
“Vacuum packing using sachets”.
