Getting started and operation
Never touch the heating element!
Risk of burns!
a) Charging the product
Before you start using the product, the built-in rechargeable battery should be fully charged.
This takes about 20 to 45 minutes.
To charge the product, proceed as follows.
• Connect the provided micro SB cable to the micro USB port on the rear panel of the device.
Pay attention to the correct orientation when inserting the plug.
• Connect the normal USB plug type A to a USB port, e.g., of a USB power adapter.
• The charging process starts immediately. Meanwhile, the built-in LED lights blue.
• The LED lights up red out once the charging process is over.
b) Preparation of the product for operation
• In any case, remove the micro USB cable before you start using the product.
• Then close the upper cover.
If you are not using the product, the mechanical slide
switch should be always in the “Lock” position. Besi-
des, the cover should be closed.
• To start using the product, slide the switch from the “Lock” to
“Seal” position.
• Thus the product is ready for use.
c) Sealing a sack
• Hold rmly one end of the sack and set the handheld vacuum sealer in position (gure 1, ar-
row 1). At that, keep some distance to the device. Press on the cover and wait for 3 seconds
until the product preheats.
• Slide the handheld vacuum sealer along the sack to seal it (gure 2); always keep the cover
closed.
The speed of movement depends on the thickness of the bag. Sealing process for 20 cm
section should last about 5 to 7 seconds.
• As soon as you have nished on the right-hand side (gure 2), turn the sack around and place
the sealer onto the part that has not been sealed yet (gure 3, arrow 2).
• Preheat it again for 3 seconds and seal the remaining part of the sack.
Before you seal the sack completely, it is advisable to remove the air out of it.
• Now the sack is water and airtight sealed.
Whenever you stop operation, please remember to preheat the device for 3 seconds
thereafter.
The bag is either just sealed or cut and sealed depending on the thickness of the
bag and sealing speed. Thus, you can decide by yourself whether your bag should
or should not be cut.
If you are a left-hander, just seal the bag in a reverse direction. See gure above,
3 small gures shown bottom left.
• After you have nished using the product, slide the switch from the “Seal” to “Lock” position.
