Important Safeguards
Read the Instructions Carefully.
For Your Own Safety, Always Follow These Basic Precautions When Using the FoodSaver®
Appliance:
If you have any concerns regarding the performance and use of your appliance, please visit
www.sunbeam.com.au or contact the Sunbeam Consumer Service Line.
Ensure the above safety precautions are understood.
2
When Vacuum Packaging:
1. Vacuum packaging is NOT a substitute for
refrigeration.
2. Use ONLY bags, rolls and canisters
manufactured by FoodSaver®.
3. Do not allow the Vacuum Channel to
fill up with liquids. This will render the
machine unusable. To prevent it, avoid
overfilling the bags and freeze liquids first.
4. You can prevent liquids from being
drawn into the appliance by placing a
folded paper towel at the top of the bag,
but below the seal area, before vacuum
packaging.
5. Do not attempt to create your own side
seals for a FoodSaver® Bag. These bags
are manufactured with special side seams
which are sealed all the way to the outer
edge. Creating your own side seams can
actually leave air channels exposed which
will cause leakage and prevent a vacuum
from being formed.
6. Always make sure you leave at least
2.5cm of extra bag material for each
time you plan to reuse the bag. To avoid
possible illness, do not reuse bags after
storing meats, fish or greasy foods.
7. If you are not sure whether you have
achieved a complete seal, simply seal the
bag again about 1cm above the first seal.
8. Bulky items sometimes make it difficult
to achieve a smooth sealing surface.
Gently stretch the bag flat along the
Sealing Strip before closing the lid.
9. When packaging products with sharp
edges (dry spaghetti, silverware, etc.),
protect the bag from punctures by
wrapping the products in a cushioning
material, such as paper towels, styrofoam,
tissue, etc. Products can also be vacuum
packaged in canisters to avoid any
possibility of puncturing a bag.
10. Avoid drawing powdery or fine-grained
products such as, flour, sugar and coffee
grinds into the appliance. This will inhibit
the vacuuming and sealing process and
may clog the unit, preventing it from
drawing a good vacuum. To prevent this
from occurring, avoid overfilling the bags.
11. If using the FoodSaver® appliance to
re-seal packets, ensure that these have
been previously commercially heat sealed.
Do not use the sealing strip to re-seal
conventional plastic wrap, sandwich bags
and plastic bags as they may melt over
the sealing strip.

Tips on Sealing a Bag
Prevent moisture or liquid from being pulled
into the Vacuum Channel or trapped in the seal.
Either pre-freeze moist food 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 7.5cm between food
and end of bag so that bag seals properly
with paper towel inside.
Make sure you give appliance time to cool
down. Wait at least 20 seconds between
seals. Under very heavy usage, appliance will
not operate to prevent overheating. If it does,
unplug appliance, wait 20 minutes to allow
appliance to cool off.
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, consider the following: You may
need to adjust bag and try again. If you are
making the initial seal on a piece of bag
material with two open ends, make sure bag
is placed on Sealing Strip. If you are vacuum
packaging with a bag, make sure open end is
placed over the Vacuum Channel and make
sure Accessory Hose is not attached.
