Tips for Successful Vacuum Packaging

(continued)

1. Vacuum packaging is NOT a substitute for the

heat process of canning. Perishables still need to

be refrigerated or frozen.

2. For best results, use FoodSaver Bags, Canisters

and Accessories.

3. During the vacuum packaging process, small

amounts of liquids, crumbs or food particles can

be inadvertently pulled into Vacuum Channel,

clogging the pump and damaging your appliance.

To prevent this, follow these tips:

a. For moist and juicy foods such as raw meats:

Freeze first and avoid overfilling bags. You can

also place a folded paper towel inside top of bag,

but below seal area, before vacuum packaging.

b. For soups, sauces and liquids: Freeze first and

avoid overfilling bags. Or, use a canister in

refrigerator.

c. For powdery or fine-grained foods: Avoid

overfilling bags or use a canister. You can also

place a coffee filter or paper towel inside

before vacuum packaging.

d. If your appliance features a Drip Tray, empty it

after each use.

4. To avoid overfilling, always leave at least 3 inches

of bag material between bag contents and top of

bag. Then leave at least one additional inch of bag

material for each time you plan to reuse bag.

5. Do not create your own side seams for a

FoodSaver Bag. These bags are manufactured

with a special side seam, which is sealed all the

way to the outer edge.

6. To prevent wrinkles in a seal when vacuum

packaging bulky items, gently stretch bag flat

along Sealing Strip before you close lid.

7. If you are unsure your bag was sealed properly,

simply reseal bag about

⁄

inch above first seal.

8. When you are vacuum packaging items with sharp

edges (dry spaghetti, silverware, etc.), protect

bag from punctures by wrapping item in soft

cushioning material, such as a paper towel. You

may want to use a canister or Mason jar instead

of a bag.

9. When using accessories, remember to leave one

inch of space at top of canister or container, and

make sure to lock Latch

(D) before vacuuming.

Unlock the Latch when finished.

10.Pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before

vacuum packaging for best results. See pages 2-3

FoodSaver Reference Guide for more information.

11.If appliance does not function and indicator light

flashes, check to make sure the Latch is in the

locked position.

12.Always store appliance with the Easy-lock Latch

in the unlocked position.
