3. Place the vacuum bag flat on a level
surface with the valve pointing up-
wards.
4. Proceed as for vacuum containers, start-
ing at step 2 (see "Vacuum containers"
on page 9), and use adapter A 20.
NOTE: suitable vacuum bags with valves
can be ordered from the online shop under

8.3 Filling bags (without
valves)
CAUTION:
No food or liquids must be present at
the top edge, where you want to seal
the bag. That area must be clean and
dry. Otherwise, it is impossible to pro-
duce a proper welding seam.
•
Fill the bag only up to a level of 6 cm
below the top edge.
8.4 Activating the Wet
function
DANGER! Risk of electric
shock due to moisture!
For vacuum-packing, no liquids must be
inside the bag.
Ensure that no liquid is sucked in during
the extraction of air. If this nevertheless
occurs, immediately interrupt the pro-
cess by pressing the active function but-
ton again.
If the bag contains moist food (e.g. marinad-
ed meat/fish, ready-to-use cut vegetables/
fruit), this can result in incomplete seals. Ac-
tivating the Wet function
10 GB
1 increases the
sealing time in order to obtain a better weld-
ing seam.

•
During the vacuum-packing/sealing
process, the Wet function
neither be activated nor deactivated.
NOTE: This function is not suitable for vacu-
um-packing liquids, e.g. soup. These need
to be frozen before vacuum-packing.
8.5 Activating the Soft
function
The Soft 5 function reduces the vacuum
pressure slightly, so that pressure-sensitive
food (e.g. berries or cake) is not com-
pressed.
•
Press the Soft 5 button before vacuum-
packing/sealing to activate the func-
tion. The LED lights up.
•
To deactivate the function, press the
Soft 5 button again.
•
When the vacuum-packing/sealing pro-
cess is completed or has been can-
