10 Vacuum chamber - The open end of the bag is placed into the inner part of the chamber, it sucks the air out of the

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The process of making a bag from Concept Fresh rolls – VB2203, VB2806 (see the accessories paragraph)
1. Plug the appliance into the socket.
2. Unwind the roll and cut with scissors the length of foil you will need to store the food and add about 10 cm of length
to seal and shrink the bag. If you wish to reuse the bags, add another 1.5 cm for each additional use so that a new
weld can be made after cutting off the previous weld. Cut both edges of the bag perpendicular to the long edges
of the roll.
3. Release the lid by pressing the lid release buttons (12) and open it. Insert one of the cut edges into the appliance so
that the edge of the foil touches the sealing of the suction chamber.
4. Close the lid and push it where the lid release buttons are located. You will hear a click when the lid is closed
properly. Press the "Seal" button to start welding the bottom side of the bag (the indicator on the "Seal" button
lights up when sealing, the indicator goes out when the process is complete).
5. Press the lid release buttons, open the lid and remove the bag from the appliance. The bag is sealed and ready for
use.
Vacuum sealing of a bag from Concept rolls – VB2203, VB2635 (see the accessories paragraph)
1. Fill the bag so that there is no filling approximately 7.5 cm from the open edge. This part of the bag must not be
stained from the packed food on the outside or inside.
2. Insert the open edge of the bag into the suction chamber between the sealing. The edge of the bag cannot be
wrinkled or crumpled.
3. Close the lid and press to secure. Use the "Dry/Moist" button (3) to set the welding mode (dry/moist - the indicator
light on the button shows which of the options is currently active) depending on the moisture of the food being
vacuum packed. Press the "Auto/Vac" button (1), the appliance starts the vacuum packing process and then
automatically seals the bag (during suction / vacuum packing the "Auto/Vac" button indicator lights up, the
indicator goes out when the process is completed).
Important notice
Use original bags made exclusively from Concept Fresh VB2203 and VB2806 rolls.
Remove excess moisture from the food before the vacuum packing.
Do not vacuum pack bags filled with any liquid!
Vacuum packing of food in Concept fresh VD8100 containers (see the accessories paragraph)
1. Fill the container max. 2.5 cm below the rim.
2. Wipe off any food residues or moisture on the edge of the container.
3. Insert the hose (not included) of the vacuum welder with one end into the opening (8) and with the other end into
the opening in the lid of the container/stopper.
4. Set the button on the lid of the VD8100 containers to the "SEAL" position. Switch on the appliance by pressing the
"Auto/Vac" button (1). When the air suction is completed, the appliance switches off automatically. Remove the
hose from the lid of the appliance and store the container.
Important safety information:
The sealing element is heated throughout the suction process. Do not touch it!
If you want to open the container: container set VD8100 - turn the button on the lid to the "OPEN" position

Tip:
The appliance is equipped with an opening on the back for storing the power cord.
Do not wrap the power cable around the appliance!
TIPS FOR THE BEST OPERATION OF THE DEVICE
1. Do not overfill the bags or containers. Always leave enough space as specified in the instructions above.
2. Do not insert bags that are dirty or wet at the desired weld point into the appliance. Always thoroughly dry and
wipe the ends of the bags before welding them.
3. Do not leave too much air in the bag. Always remove as much excess air as possible from the bag before welding.
4. Do not vacuum pack objects with sharp edges that could rupture the bag. Always use appropriate containers for
such objects.
5. Allow the appliance to cool down for 1 minute after each packing.
6. Prevent liquids from entering the suction chamber or opening and damaging the device. If you need to vacuum
pack moist food, we recommend freezing the bag and wiping it with a paper towel first.
7. Only vacuum pack liquids in containers that are distributed as accessories. Always allow liquids to cool down!
8. Always store perishable food in the refrigerator or freezer after packing them. Vacuum packing prolongs their
freshness, but does not prevent them from spoiling.
9. The vacuum packing system can be used not only for food storage, but also for protecting valuable items (e.g.
important documents, electronics, medicines, etc.)
10. Make sure that the suction chamber and the opening are clean and free of any dirt before use.
11. If the appliance is damaged by sucking in leftover food from an overfilled suction chamber, this damage is not
a warranty defect!
