Making a bag from foil Note: In the event that vacuum sealer bags are used, cutting off and sealing the bottom of the foil is not necessary.

Since the foil has opening on both sides, first it is necessary to create a seal on one side of the foil and thereby create a bag even before filling it with foodstuffs.

C1 Pulling foil off the roll Tilt open the lid A1, pull the required length of foil

from the roll in the chamber A3. C2 Cutting the foil to the required length Cut the pulled out part of the foil by sliding the

blade A5 from one side to the other. Use one had to hold down the roll and slide out the part of the foil and use the other hand to slide the blade from one side to the other.

C3 Placing the foil on the rubber strip Place either end of the cut off empty foil on to the

edge of the vacuum chamber A8, which is nearer the rubber strip A9 so that it extends at least 1.5 cm past the edge of the strip.

C4 Closing the lid and sealing the foil Use both hands to push down the lid A1 against

the base unit until you hear 2x clicks. Both latches A10 must slide into the holes in the base unit. This locks the lid A1 into the base unit and you may begin the sealing process. Press button B6 Seal

to start the sealing process, indicator B13 will be lit. When it is finished, indicator B13 will turn off; release the lid by pressing buttons A12 on both sides of the vacuum sealer. The lid will be released and you may remove the bag. Check the seal.

Filling and sealing the bag

C5 You may immediately start filling the bag that was just created with foodstuffs or items that you wish to seal or vacuum seal inside the bag. If you wish just to seal the bag, repeat steps C3 ad C4.

If you wish to vacuum seal the foodstuffs in the bag, then place the bag with the open end into the vacuum chamber A8 and ensure that the air suction inlet A6 is not blocked. Use both hands to push down the lid A1 against the base unit until you hear 2x clicks. Both latches A10 must slide into the holes in the base unit. This locks the lid A1 into the base unit and you may begin the vacuum sealing process. Press button B4 and start the vacuum sealing process. Indicator B11 will be lit. When the vacuum process is complete, the sealing process will start automatically. Indicator B11 will turn off and indicator B13 will turn on. After the sealing process is finished, it will turn off automatically and the indicator will turn off. Release the lid A1 by pressing the buttons A12 on both sides of the vacuum sealer. The lid will be released and you may remove the bag. Check the seal.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A VACUUM SEALER

When stored in the normal manner, foodstuffs lose their flavour, aroma and nutrients. Bacteria multiply, moulds form in these foodstuffs, which leads to their spoilage. The vacuum sealer enables one to create a vacuum package, and the freshness of foodstuffs can be extended by up to 7 times compared to standard storage methods without requiring any preservatives or other chemicals. Likewise, vacuum sealing may also shorten marinating times, which usually take several hours, down to only 20 minutes.

Vacuum sealing can also be used to protect various items against the entry of water or insects.

A VACUUM SEALER SAVES TIME AND MONEY

Save money With a vacuum sealer, you can purchase food in bulk or when it is on sale, and then vacuum seal your required

portions without any waste.

Save time You may cook food a week in advance and store it in vacuum sealer bags.

Marinating within minutes Vacuum sealing opens up the pores in food, meaning that the effect of the marinade can be achieved in only

20 minutes instead of marinading over night as is most common.

Make entertaining easier You can prepare your favourite foods or banquet well in advance, meaning that you can spend your time with

your guests.

Enjoy seasonal foods or specialities Store perishable or infrequently used foods fresh for longer.

Have caloric value under control Vacuum pack arbitrary portions and write the caloric or fat content down on the bag.

Protect your non-food products Vacuum sealing can also be used to protect various items against the entry of water or insects, for example when

camping or on a boat.

ACCESSORIES

BAGS AND ROLLS

The vacuum sealer bags and rolls supplied with this appliance consist of two layers that enable effective and complete air extraction. The multi-layer design provides effective protection against the entry of air and humidity, which prevents the creation of frost stains on food, which though harmless are unsightly. Bags and rolls are supplied in various sizes. In these vacuum sealer bags, it is possible to heat foodstuffs in a microwave oven or boil in water. Additional vacuum sealer rolls can be purchased under part number SVX 300CL.

In order to prevent potential illness, do not reuse bags for the storage of raw meat, raw fish or meat products. Do not reuse bags that were subjected to microwave heating or were boiled in water.

USEFUL TIPS

Do not overfill the bags, fill them up to max 2/3 of their volume. Leave a sufficient length at the end of the bag to enable it to be easily placed into the vacuum chamber A8.

Make sure that the open side of the bag is clean and dry. A wet bag seals poorly and it is difficult to achieve an air-tight seal.

Vacuum sealed packaging cannot entirely substitute for storing foodstuffs in a refrigerator or freezer. It is necessary to place foodstuffs that spoil quickly into a refrigerator or freezer, even when contained in a vacuum package.

Keep the open side of the bag clean and straight, free of any foreign objects or folds, which can cause problems or leaks during the sealing process.

To prevent folds from forming in the seal when vacuum sealing items of larger dimensions, gently tension the bag when inserting it into the vacuum chamber and hold it until the vacuum pump starts working.

When vacuum sealing items with sharp edges (dry pasta, silver items, etc.) protect the bag against damage by wrapping these items into a soft dampening material such as silk paper. It may be necessary to use a vacuum jar instead of a bag.

When using the vacuum jar, do not forget to leave at least 2.5 cm clearance underneath its lid. You will achieve the best results when you freeze fruit and pre-cooked vegetables before vacuum sealing. A rest period of at least 40 seconds is recommended between the sealing cycles to enable the appliance to cool down. If you are uncertain whether a bag is properly sealed, repeat the sealing cycle. To achieve the best results, use vacuum sealer bags, jars and other accessories of the SENCOR brand.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VACUUM SEALING WITH ACCESSORIES

Before using accessories such as vacuum jars, vacuum containers, vacuum plugs, etc., adhere to the following points. Leave free space of at least 2.5 cm between the vacuum sealed foodstuffs or items and the lid of the jar or container. Wipe the edge of the jar, container or bottle so that it is clean and dry. Put the cap on to the vacuum jar or container, or insert the vacuum plug into the bottle.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. PREVENTATIVE CHECKS

Check that the appliance's power cord is firmly inserted in a power socket. Check the power cord for damage. Check that the electrical socket is in working order by connecting a different appliance. Make sure that the latches are in the closed position. Make sure that the vacuum sealer bag is correctly placed inside the vacuum chamber. Before another sealing cycle, allow the appliance to cool down for at least 40 seconds.

Note: To prevent the appliance from overheating, allow it to cool down for at least 40 seconds with the lid open before using again.

2. THERE IS STILL AIR IN THE BAG AFTER THE VACUUM SEALING CYCLE

Make sure that the open side of the bag is placed completely inside the vacuum chamber. Check the bag for leaks. Check the seal on the bag by filling it with air and then submerging it in water and squeezing

it. Any escaping bubbles will indicate a leak, in this case use a new bag.

EN-12

EN Vacuum Sealer SVS 4010SS

2020 05/2020

When adjusting the size of a bag, check the seal on the bag. Any creases along the seal may cause a leak, and allow air to flow back into the bag. In this case, cut off the faulty seal and create a new one.

Avoid making your own side seals on vacuum sealer bags, these seals are already made along the entire length of the outer edge. Creating your own side seals may result in leaks and enable air to re-enter the bag.

Please do not vacuum seal bags with hot foodstuffs inside. In accordance with the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, do not vacuum seal bags with very hot

foodstuffs, otherwise they will shrink upon cooling, which has the appearance of an air leak. After vacuum sealing a bag with vegetables or fruit, there is still air in the bag.

After vacuum sealing, please place the sealed bags into a refrigerator, otherwise, air will be released as a result of photosynthesis and you will not achieve a vacuum.

Please do not vacuum seal bags with fermented foodstuffs inside. Fermented foodstuffs are not suitable for vacuum seal packaging because they naturally release gases.

3. AIR WAS SUCKED OUT OF THE BAG BUT IS NOW RE-ENTERING

Check the seal on the bag. Any creases along the seal may cause a leak, and allow air to flow back into the bag. Cut off the faulty seal and create a new one.

Sometimes moisture or various ingredients (such as juices, grease, crumbs, powder, etc.) along the seal prevent an air-tight seal. Cut off the faulty seal, wipe the inner top edge of the bag and create a new seal.

When vacuum sealing foodstuffs with sharp edges, there is a risk of puncturing the bag. Replace a punctured bag with a new one, wrap foodstuffs with sharp edges in soft dampening material such as silk paper and create a new seal.

If there is still air inside the bag, there may be fermentation or release of natural gases from foodstuffs. If this occurs, foodstuffs may start to spoil and should be thrown out.

4. THE BAG IS MELTING

If the bag is melting, the rubber strip is starting to overheat. Always wait at least 5 minutes before vacuum sealing again so that the appliance can cool down.
