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