17 Operation
This chapter provides instructions on the proper operation of your vacuum sealer:
17.1 Basics of sealing
After each sealing session and before starting up, check to make sure the unit and all
accessories are clean and free of leftover food. Follow the cleaning instructions on in
into place with an audible click. To seal, press the Seal Button. To vacuum and seal, press
the "VAC Seal" Button.
Step 3: Once the Indicator Light is no longer lit, press the cover unlock buttons to unlock
the top cover.
17.2 Bags and rolls
Please only use specified bags and rolls for vacuuming. The material of these special foils
is different from wrapping film. All vacuum rolls and bags delivered by CASO are
appropriate for cooking under vacuum (sous vide). Furthermore the vacuum rolls and bags
can be used for defrosting and heating in the microwave at up to 70° C. Please make sure
when vacuum rolls and bags of other producers are used, whether they are also
microwaveable and suitable for cooking under vacuum. Please note that a bar
vacuumsealer as this device can only be used with structured bags. You can buy a wide
range of different bags and rolls from CASO.
17.3 Vacuuming with a bag
Place the unit on a dry surface. Make sure the area in front of the unit is unobstructed and
wide enough to accommodate the food bags.
1. Place the food to be preserved inside the bag.
2. Clean and straighten the open end of the bag--ensure there are no wrinkles or ripples.
3. Insert the open end of the bag into the vacuum chamber. (see Step 1)
4. Close the cover and press down firmly on both sides by using two hands until you hear
two clicks (see, Step 2).
5. Press the "VAC Seal" Button. The indicator light will light up as the bag is automatically
vacuumed and sealed. Once it is finished, light will turn off.
6. Unlock the cover by pressing the cover unlock buttons and remove your finished bag
(see Step 3).
