8  TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM: WHAT TO DO:
VacSy® SEALING UNIT does not
respond when I press the buttons.
Make sure the machine is switched on and plugged in.
If the socket is on but you have no power, check the socket with another appliance that you know works.
Check the power cord for any damage – e.g. cracks or splitting.
Your machine may switch off automatically to avoid overheating. Allow it to cool down for 45 minutes and then carry
on as normal. We strongly recommend you leave 20 seconds between each vacuum packing.
Pressing a function button must last at least one second for the machine to react.
Air remains in the bag.
Make sure you have fully placed the open end of the bag in the middle of the Vacuum Compartment.
• Ensure that the bags you are using have at least 100/130 μm thickness.
• Check your bag for any damage – e.g. splits, perforations or bubbles.
• Test: Seal bag and submerge it in water. At the points where a bag is damaged, bubbles will appear.
• When using continuous rolls make sure that the first sealing edge is firmly sealed.
• Make sure you have pressed on both sides on the rims of the lid tightly enough before vacuum packing.
You must hear two clicks.
The vacuum does not hold
on the bags.
• Check the sealing areas of the lid are free from any dirt, grease or food particles, and that it is firmly in place.
• Ensure that the bag is totally clean on the edges – thoroughly remove any food particles or liquid and ensure the
bag is completely dry.
• If you are sealing anything with sharp edges (e.g. bones) make sure they cannot pierce the bag during the vacuum
process.
• Note: cover sharp edges with a paper towel, or similar, prior to sealing.
Bag melts or cannot be sealed
completely.
• Make sure you are using bags that are at least 100/130 μm thickness and 4 ply.
• Before the sealing ensure that the edges of the bag are clean and dry.
The vacuum does not hold when
using a container.
• Ensure that the hose is correctly inserted as shown in Figure 8.
• Make sure container lid is clean and dry and in the correct position.
• Make certain that the container valve is clean and dry.
ZEPTER VacSy® SEALING UNIT sealed
several bags (up to 5 items) and it
seems it is not working anymore.
Important note about vacuum bags:
• We strongly recommend vacuum bags of thickness at least 100/130 µ. There are many different types of vacuum bags
available on the market, so pay special attention to quality. Our recommendation is to use original vacuum bags from
Zepter, which are 4 ply and 100/130 µ thick.
