Tips on Sealing a Bag
Make sure you’ve placed the bag in the proper place. When making a bag from a roll, make sure end
of cut piece is on Sealing Strip, not over rubber gasket or in Vacuum Channel.
pre-freeze moist foods such as raw meat for 1-2 hours before vacuum packaging, or place a folded paper towel between food and end of bag to absorb excess liquids. Just be sure to leave at least 3 inches
between paper towel and end of bag so that bag seals properly with paper towel inside.
Make sure the Vacuum Mode Switch (on V375 only) is set to Vacuum and Seal.
Make sure you give appliance time to cool down.
Wait at least 20 seconds between seals. Under very heavy usage, appliance will shut off automatically to prevent overheating. If it does, wait 20 minutes to allow appliance to cool off.
Tips on Removing Air from a Bag
Make sure you’ve placed the bag in the proper place. When vacuuming and sealing a bag, make sure
open end of bag is inside Vacuum Channel.
Check for wrinkles in the bag along the Sealing Strip. Wrinkles in seal may cause leakage and allow
air to come back into bag. Check for wrinkles in bag along Sealing Strip before closing lid and vacuum packaging. If you find wrinkles after sealing bag, sim­ply cut bag open and vacuum package again.
If motor runs for more than 30 seconds without stopping, you may need to adjust bag and try again. If
you are making initial seal on a piece of bag material with two open ends, make sure bag is placed on Sealing Strip, not on black rubber gasket. If you are vacuum packaging with a bag, make sure open end is placed down inside Vacuum Channel and make sure Accessory Hose is not attached. If you are vacuum packaging with an accessory, check Accessory Hose in appliance lid and in accessory to ensure a tight fit. (On V375, also make sure Vacuum Mode Switch
(C) is set to Vacuum and Seal.)
The Removable Drip Tray (G) fits inside Vacuum Channel
(D), making cleanup easy when small
amounts of liquids are inadvertently pulled into Vacuum Channel during vacuum process (see FoodSaver Reference Guide for tips on preventing this).
Place Drip Tray into Vacuum Channel. Two bag guides in Drip Tray help correctly position FoodSaver Bags when vacuum packaging. Slip open end of bag into guides before closing lid and vacuum packaging. After each use, empty Drip Tray and wash in warm soapy water or place on top rack of dishwasher. Appliance can be used without Drip Tray.
