Tips
Vacuum Confirmation
•
To check quality of vacuum, check tightness of the pouch and its contents. Check for air leaks and
pockets. If you find that contents are not tightly vacuumed, increase the vacuum time by
5 seconds and run the vacuum again.
Seal Confirmation
•
To check quality of the seal, check seal of pouch. A complete seal will appear clear while an incomplete
seal will appear bubbly. If the seal is incomplete, increase seal time by 0.1 second. If the seal appears
white, decrease seal time by 0.1 second. After determining the appropriate time adjustments, vacuum
and seal again.
