Welding a tube film
NOTES ON THE FILM
► The film width may not exceed 28 cm. Otherwise it cannot be welded
correctly.
► Use only nylon-PE films with a structure (points or grooves) on one side and
that have a structure (points or grooves) on one side and a thickness of
approximately 0.17 - 0.29 mm (170 - 290 μ).
Otherwise the weld seam will not be tight and the appliance may be da-
maged. You can recognise films of this type from the information on the
packaging. The quality of the weld seam will vary depending on the type
and thickness of the film.
► The supplied film is suitable for temperatures between -20°C and +100°C.
1) Cut the desired length for your bag from the tube film using a pair of scissors.
Cut as straight as possible.
2) Open the appliance lid by pressing the lid release and opening the
lid upwards.
3) Lay the open end of the bag as far into the appliance so that the opening of
the bag is located centrally under the lower sealing ring . The bag should
be inserted no further than the rear limiters and must lie between the front
limiters . If the bag lies over one or both of the two limiters , then the
bag cannot be correctly welded.

SFS 120 A1
NOTE
► The bag opening must lie flat on the welding wire . Otherwise the weld-
ing does not work properly.
4) Close the appliance lid . The press seal presses the bag onto the welding
wire , to create a smooth seam. Ensure that both corners of the appliance
lid click closed. If necessary, press them down once again on the markings
and so that the appliance lid clicks into place and locks shut.
5) Press the
button 3. The red control lamp - lights up. As soon as the
sealing process is finished, the red control lamp - goes off.
NOTE
► You can halt the sealing process at any time by pressing the
button !.
The red control lamp - goes out.
CAUTION – PROPERTY DAMAGE!
If the red control lamp - does not go out after a maximum of
10 seconds, there is a fault with the appliance.
► Remove the plug from the mains power socket immediately. Do not attempt
to repair the appliance yourself. Contact the Customer Service department.
6) Open the appliance lid by pressing the lid release and flipping the lid
upwards. Remove the bag. This is now sealed at one end.
NOTE
► Ensure that the weld seam is properly closed. A correct weld seam should
be a smooth, straight stripe without any creases.
7) Fill the bag. You must leave at least 6 cm of the bag free up to the edge to
be welded.
CAUTION – PROPERTY DAMAGE!
► Fill the bag so that no food scraps or liquids can leak out during welding
and get into the appliance.
8) If you do not want to vacuum the bag, you can now weld the other, open side.
NOTE
► Wait 15 seconds before sealing the next bag to allow the appliance to
cool down.
During this cool-down phase, you cannot start the “seal” function.

Vacuuming the tube film
You can also suck the air out of the bag (vacuum) during welding:
CAUTION – PROPERTY DAMAGE!
►
Do not evacuate bags that contain liquids. These will get into the appliance
and damage it.
1) Lay the open end of the bag as far into the appliance so that the opening of
the bag is located centrally under the lower sealing ring . The bag should
be inserted no further than the rear limiters and must lie between the front
limiters . Otherwise the vacuuming and welding will not function correctly:
2) Close the appliance lid . Ensure that both corners of the appliance lid
click closed. If necessary, press them down once again on the markings
and so that the appliance lid clicks into place and locks shut.
NOTE
► Ensure that the upper and the lower sealing rings are not damaged!
Otherwise the device cannot suck the air out of the bag.
► If either one of the sealing rings / is damaged, simply pull it out of the
groove and press the replacement sealing ring into the groove.

3) Press the button .. The green control lamp 0 lights up and the appliance
sucks the air out of the bag. As soon as all the air is sucked out, the green
control lamp 0 goes out and the red control lamp - lights up. The appliance
now seals the bag.
4) If both control lamps -/0 have gone out, you can open the lid by pressing
the lid catch and flipping the lid upwards. Remove the vacuum-sealed
bag.
NOTE
► You can halt the air extraction process at any time by pressing the
button !.
The green control lamp 0 will then go off. Press the
button . again to
resume the extraction process.
If the appliance has already switched to the sealing process and the red
control lamp - is lit, the process can be stopped with the
button !.
The appliance then stops the sealing process.
► Once you have sealed 5 bags in a row, allow the appliance to cool down
for about 1 minute.
During this cool-down phase, you cannot start the appliance. After the
cool-down phase, you can use the appliance as normal.
TIP – "SOUS-VIDE COOKING"
► As the supplied film is suitable for temperatures between -20°C and
+100°C, it can be used for the so-called "sous-vide" cooking process
(vacuum cooking).
"Sous-vide" is French and means "under vacuum".
In vacuum cooking, the food (usually fish or meat, but vegetables can
also be used) is vacuum-sealed in a bag and then cooked in water or steam
cooked at a relatively low temperature (50 to 90 C). The advantage of this is
that volatile flavours or aroma are not lost during cooking. The food does not
dry out and the vitamins and flavours are preserved. Herbs or spices that are
vacuum-sealed in the bag with the food give off a more intense flavour.

Cleaning
DANGER
Risk of fatal injury from electrocution!
► Remove the plug from the mains power socket before beginning to clean
the device.
► Ensure that no moisture can penetrate the device during cleaning.
CAUTION
Possible damage to the appliance.
► Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents, as these may corrode
the surface of the casing.
► Do not use any hard or sharp objects to remove any adhesive from the
welding wire . Otherwise the welding wire or the insulation could
be damaged.
Cleaning the appliance
♦ Clean the surface of the housing of the appliance with a lightly moistened
cloth and a mild detergent.
♦ Wipe off the upper and the lower sealing rings , as well as the press
seal with a damp cloth. Ensure that the appliance is dry before using it
again.
Storage
The appliance has a built-in cable retainer on the underside of the housing,
on which you can wrap the power cable when it is not in use. This prevents the
power cable from getting caught or soiled, or becoming a source of danger by
hanging loosely down.
CAUTION
Possible damage to the appliance.
► Do not click the appliance lid closed for storage! When the appliance
lid is clicked closed it exerts permanent pressure on the upper and
lower sealing rings , as well as the press seal . This can negatively
affect their function.
♦ Store the appliance in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight.
