► Do not put too much food inside the bag; leave enough empty length in
the open end of the bag so that the bag can be placed in the vacuuming
plate more positively.
► Do not wet the open end of the bag. Wet bags may be difficult to seal
tightly.
► Clean and straighten the open end of the bag before sealing the bag.
Make sure nothing is leaving on the open area of the bag. Foreign
objects or creased bags may cause difficulty to seal tightly.
► Do not leave too much air inside the bag. Press the bag to allow extra
air to escape from the bag before vacuuming it. Too much air inside the
bag increases the vacuum pump loading and may cause that the motor
works insufficient to draw away all the air out of the bag.
► If the foods you're sealing have sharp edges, such as bones, spaghetti
or shellfish, pack the edges with kitchen paper to avoid tearing the bag
► Suggest to vacuum seal one bag within 1 minute to let the appliance
cool down enough.
► In order to vacuum seal liquid-based foods, such as soups, casseroles
or stew, freeze them first in a baking pan or tempered dish, vacuum
seal them, label and stack them in your freezer as soon as they are in
frozen solid.
► Blanch the vegetables by cooking briefly in boiling water or microwave
oven, cool them down , then vacuum seal them in convenient portions.
► To vacuum seal the foods not frozen, two extra inches are required for
bag length to allow for expansion while freezing. Place the meat or fish
on a paper towel and vacuum seal with the paper towel in the bag, this
way will help to absorb moisture from the foods.
► Before storing the foods such as tortillas, crepes or hamburger, use wax
or parchment paper between them to stack the pieces, this will be
easier to remove some of the food, reseal the rest and immediately
replace in the freezer.
