WARNING:

 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this 

product has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than 

the other). This plug is intended to fit in a polarized 

outlet only one way. When the plug does not fit fully 

in the outlet, reverse the plug. When it still does not 

fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper 

outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

WARNING: Be careful not to touch or come in 

contact with the Seal Bar when the Vacuum Chamber 

Lid is open as it may be hot. Never press the Seal 

button when the Vacuum Chamber Lid is open as this 

will apply heating power to the Seal Wire and can 

present a burning hazard.

WARNING: Vacuum packaging is not a substitute 

for refrigeration or freezing. Any perishable foods 

that require refrigeration must still be refrigerated or 

frozen after vacuum packaging. Vacuum packaging is 

not a substitute for canning.

!

WARNING: Never vacuum package garlic or fungi 

(such as mushrooms). A dangerous chemical 

reaction takes place when air is removed, causing 

these foods to be dangerous if ingested.

!

WARNING: As with any storage container, it is 

important to inspect food that has been vacuum 

packaged for spoilage prior to consumption.

!

It is important to note that vacuum packaging cannot reverse the 

deterioration of foods; it can only slow down changes in quality. It is 

difficult to predict how long foods will retain their flavor, appearance 

or texture since it depends on the age and condition of the food 

when it was vacuum packaged.
