the bag.
Information on the bags
This appliance can use bags available on
the market which are suitable for vacuum
packing. However, Fagor only guarantees
correct functioning of the appliance with the
bags and accessories in its own range.
Fagor bags can be reused, they are suitable
for the microwave and freezer and they can
be boiled.
Before reusing a bag, wash it first as
indicated in "Maintenance and Cleaning"
Vacuum adjustment function
You can remove the bag with the vacuum
level of your choice. Follow normal
operations according to what was described
above to create the vacuum inside the
bags. During the operation, whilst the yellow
light (C) is flashing, briefly press the "Stop"
button (B). The red light (E) will come on,
meaning that the sealing bar has been
activated. When sealing is completed, the
unit automatically finishes its work cycle.
