process without sealing the bag. Press Cancel Button  
(C) and motor will stop.  
Antibacterial DripTray  
The Antibacterial Drip Tray (K) is made with an  
FDA-approved antibacterial ingredient that helps  
inhibit the growth of bacteria. The Drip Tray fits  
inside the Vacuum Channel (J) and is removable,  
making cleanup easy when small amounts of liquids  
are inadvertently pulled into Vacuum Channel during  
vacuum process. (See FoodSaver Reference Guide for  
tips on preventing this.)  
Place Drip Tray into Vacuum Channel. Two bag  
guides in Drip Tray help correctly position FoodSaver  
Bags when vacuum packaging. Slip open end of bag

Sealing a Bag  
Make sure you’ve placed the bag in the proper place.  
When making a bag from a roll, make sure end of cut  
piece is on Sealing Strip (M), not over rubber gasket  
(L) or in Vacuum Channel (J).  
between paper towel and end of bag so that bag seals  
properly with paper towel inside.  
Make sure the Seal Control Switch (G) is set to the  
proper setting.  
Prevent moisture or liquid from being pulled into  
the Vacuum Channel or trapped in the seal. Either  
pre-freeze moist foods 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 3 inches  
Make sure you give appliance time to cool down.  
Wait at least 20 seconds between seals. Under very  
heavy usage, appliance will shut off automatically to  
prevent overheating. If it does, wait 20 minutes to  
allow appliance to cool off.  
Removing Air from a Bag  
Make sure you’ve placed the bag in the proper place.  
When vacuuming and sealing a bag, make sure open  
end of bag is inside Vacuum Channel (J).  
If motor runs for more than 30 seconds without  
stopping, 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, not on rubber gasket (L). If you are  
vacuum packaging with a bag, make sure open end is  
placed down inside Vacuum Channel and make sure  
Accessory Hose (A) is not attached. If you are vacuum  
packaging with an accessory, check Accessory Hose  
in appliance lid and in accessory to ensure a tight fit.  
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 (M) before closing lid and vacuum  
packaging. If you find wrinkles after sealing bag,  
simply cut bag open and vacuum package again.

Tips for Successful Vacuum Packaging  
(continued)  
GeneralTips  
1. Vacuum packaging is NOT a substitute for the  
heat process of canning. Perishables still need to  
be refrigerated or frozen.  
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.  
2. For best results, use FoodSaver Bags, Canisters  
and Accessories.  
6. To prevent wrinkles in seal when vacuum  
packaging bulky items, gently stretch bag flat  
along Sealing Strip before you close lid.  
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:  
7. If you are unsure your bag was sealed properly,  
simply reseal bag about 1 4 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.  
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.  
9. When using accessories, remember to leave one  
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.  
inch of space at top of canister or container.  
10.Pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables before  
vacuum packaging for best results. See pages 2-3  
of FoodSaver Reference Guide for more information.  
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.
