FoodSaver Canisters
◗ Vacuum packaging in the
FoodSaver Square Canister is an
excellent way to marinate foods
because the
process opens

the FoodSaver vacuum packaging
system you can marinate food in
20 minutes so you don’t have to
wait all day or overnight for that
special taste. All FoodSaver
Canisters work for marinating,
but we recommend the Square
Canister because less marinade
will be needed.

Important Safeguards
Important Tips
For Your Own Safety, Always Follow These Basic Safety
Important Tips When Vacuum Packaging:
/
Precautions When Using the FoodSaver Professional II Turbo:
1
2
3
Vacuum packaging is NOT a substitute for refrigeration.
Use ONLY bags and rolls manufactured by FoodSaver.
1
2
Read the instructions carefully.
Do not use the appliance on wet or hot surfaces, or near a
heat source.
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.
3
4
5
Do not immerse any part of the appliance, power cord, or plug
into water or other liquid.
4
5
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.
To disconnect, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
Do not disconnect by pulling on the cord.
Do not operate the appliance with a damaged power cord or
plug. Do not operate the appliance if it malfunctions or is in any
way damaged. If the cord or the appliance is damaged, it must be
returned to an authorized service center.
Do not attempt to create your own side seams 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
7
8
9
Do not use an extension cord with the appliance.
Use only accessories or attachments recommended by Tilia, Inc.
Use the appliance only for its intended use.
6
7
8
Always make sure you leave at least one extra inch of bag
material for each time you plan to reuse the bag.
If you are not sure whether you have achieved a complete seal,
simply seal the bag again about 1⁄
inch above the first seal.
4
Closely supervise children when using any electrical appliance.
Do not allow the appliance to be used as a toy.
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.
10
120v Machines Only: The appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not
modify the plug in any way.
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 or
Mason jars to avoid any possibility of puncturing a bag.
For Household Use Only • Please Save These Instructions
10
Avoid drawing powdery or fine-grained products 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.

Press and release the Manual Seal
Button. The lid will be automati-
cally pulled down into the sealing
position. The red sealing light will
come on indicating the bag is
being sealed.

Place the appliance on a flat, dry surface and plug the power cord
into a standard electrical outlet.
2
3
Set the Sealing Adjustment Switch to “3.”
While the bag is sealing, slide the
bag cutter completely across the
sliding channel to cut the bag.
Open the lid and place the FoodSaver Roll into the roll storage
compartment. Make sure the roll is centered so that an even seal
will be achieved.
Make sure you return the bag
cutter to the extreme left or right
side of the sliding channel. Note:
You may have to push down and apply extra pressure to make
sure the bag has been cut.
8
At the end of the sealing process, the red sealing light will blink,
indicating the machine is re-programming itself for the next
function. The lid will open slightly returning to the ready position.
Do not lift the lid until the red sealing light stops blinking
and the lid has reset to the ready position.
9
Lift up the lid and remove the bag.
10
Make sure the extra bag material is rolled back into the roll
storage compartment and is not down in the Vacuum Channel.
4
5
Lay the item(s) you want to vacuum package near the appliance so
you can see where to cut the bag material. Pull the end of the roll
out to the desired length. IMPORTANT: Leave at least 3 extra
inches at one end of the bag and more if you want to reseal
the bag (one inch per reseal).
NOTE: Let the appliance cool down for at least 20 seconds before
using it again.

How To Vacuum Package Using FoodSaver Universal Lids
FoodSaver Universal Lids are ideal for keeping foods, such as
sauces, peanuts and coffee, fresh longer in their original con-
tainers. These lids work with metal cans, thick glass jars and
rigid plastic containers. Remember, perishable goods should
still be refrigerated. Also, if you plan to store food in cans for
more than a day, it is advisable to transfer food into a plastic
or glass container to prevent “off-flavor” from developing from
the can.

Once the vacuum takes hold on
the container, the Universal Lid
can be released. Continue with
vacuum packaging as per instruc-
tions on page 10, steps 6-8.
CAUTION: FoodSaver Universal Lids are not to be used with thin
glass, crystal, plastic or aluminum containers. The vacuum force

to grow, but can grow with or
without air. Refrigeration slows
the growth of yeast, and freezing
stops it completely.
1
2
3
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
Do not immerse the appliance in water.
Vacuum packaging is not a substitute
for canning nor can it reverse deteri-
orating quality; it can only slow down
changes in quality. It is impossible to
predict how long a specific food will
have top-quality flavor, appearance
and texture, because it depends on
the age and condition of the food
on the day it was vacuum packaged.
Any perishable foods that require
refrigeration still must be refrigerated
or frozen after vacuum packaging.
◗ Bacteria: Frequently results in
discoloration, soft or slimy texture
and/or an unpleasant odor. Clostrid-
ium botulinum (the organism that
causes Botulism) can grow without
air under the right conditions,
cannot be detected by smell or
taste and, although extremely rare,
can be very dangerous.
Do not use abrasive products or materials to clean any of the
appliance components. Such cleaners can scratch the surfaces
and damage the black foam rubber pads, preventing a vacuum
from forming.
4
5
Clean using a mild dishwashing soap and a warm, damp cloth.
Wipe away any food residue from inside or around the Vacuum
Channel, Sealing Strip, and black foam rubber pads.
Dry thoroughly before using.
Maintaining low temperatures is a
critical factor in preserving foods
safely. Growth of micro-organisms is
significantly reduced at temperatures
of 40°F (4°C) or below. Freezing at
0°F (-17°C) does not kill micro-
organisms, but stops them from
growing. For long-term storage, always
freeze “perishable” foods that have
been vacuum packaged.
Vacuum packaging extends the life of
foods by removing nearly all the air in
a sealed container, thereby reducing
oxidation which affects nutritional
value, flavor and overall quality.
However, most foods contain enough
water to support micro-organisms
which can grow with or without air.
While micro-organisms are present
everywhere, only certain ones cause
problems, and only under certain
conditions:
◗ Mold: Easy to identify because of
its characteristic fuzz. Molds are
virtually eliminated by vacuum
packaging because they cannot
grow in a low oxygen environment. To microwave in a FoodSaver Bag,
◗ Yeast: Results in fermentation, cut a corner of the bag and place on
FoodSaver Bags

Wash bags in warm water using a mild dishwashing soap.
Bags can be washed in the dishwasher by carefully turning the
bags inside out and spreading them over the top rack of the dish-
washer, so that all surfaces are exposed to the washing water.
3
Allow bags to dry thoroughly before reusing.
IMPORTANT: Do not reuse bags that have been used to store raw
meats or fish. Also, bags may not be reusable if they have been
used to store greasy or fatty foods. Do not reuse bags that have
been microwaved or boiled.
Thawing and Heating Vacuum
Packaged Foods

temperature to thaw.

will not freeze together in a block.
Preparation Guidelines for Hard Cheeses:
Keep cheese fresh even if you use
it everyday by vacuum packaging it
after each use. Make your original
FoodSaver Bag extra long. Simply
cut along the sealed edge, remove
the cheese and slice off the amount

Vacuum Packaging Non-Food Items
Your FoodSaver vacuum packaging
system also protects non-food items
from oxidation, corrosion and
moisture. Just follow the directions
for vacuum packaging using the
FoodSaver Bags or accessories.
◗ Vacuum package your food and
equipment for a boating or sailing
outing. Food will stay dry in the
cooler, batteries and film won’t get
damaged by water, and you’ll appre-
ciate having a dry change of clothes.
◗ FoodSaver Bags are also great for
storing extra keys or any spare parts
you need for your boat. They will
be dry and in one place.
◗ Vacuum package first aid kits and
emergency kits for your house,
your boat and your car. Items will
all be in one package and will stay
dry and without dirt and mold.
Include flares, batteries, flashlight,
candles and matches.

open the container and take what
you need for baking or cooking.
◗ Vacuum package extra spark plugs
and precision tools that always
seem to get lost. Seal nuts, bolts
and screws by size in separate bags.

sealed all the way to the outer edge. Making your own side seams
may leave air pockets, which will cause leakage and prevent air
from being completely removed.

b. Keep the lid open before vacuuming and/or sealing another bag.
If you find none of these conditions identified in 1-3 (above), and the
bag appears to have air inside, fermentation or the release of natural
gases from inside the foods may have occurred. This could indicate
that the food may have begun to spoil and should be discarded.
