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 required length of the foil from the roll and cut it with a cutter (15) or scissors, leaving additional 10 cm
of length for the foil to seal and shrink. 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. Open the lid of the appliance and 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 secure it by lowering the handle. Press the "Manual seal" button to start the welding of the
underside of the bag.
5. Open the handle 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 secure it by lowering the handle. Press the "Pressure" and "Sealing" button (3; 4) to set the desired
welding mode (dry/moist) depending on the moisture of the vacuum-packed food. Press the "Vac and Seal" button
(1) and the appliance starts the vacuum packing process and automatically seals the bag.
Important information:
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 no more than 2.5 cm below the rim.
2. Wipe off any food residues or moisture on the edge of the container.
3. Insert one end of the hose included in the vacuum welder package into the opening (8) and insert the other end
into the opening in the lid of the canister/cap.
4. Set the button on the lid of the VD8100 containers to the "SEAL" position. Press the "Canister" button (5) and turn on
the appliance. 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 information:
The sealing element is heated throughout the suction process. Do not touch it!
Opening the canister:
• VD8100 canister set – Turn the button on the lid to the "OPEN" position.

Tip:
To avoid losing the hose, we recommend storing it in the opening in the inside of the lid.
The bottom part of the appliance is equipped with an opening for storing the power cable.
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!
