This button can be used to seal the open end of a bag without using the vacuum function, it can also be used to make a bag from a bag roll. When the ‘Vacuum & Seal’ function is in operation this button stops the motor pump and starts to seal the bag so there is less vacuum pressure in the bag and it can be controlled by the user. The appliance needs to cool down for 15 seconds after each sealing cycle.
7. Pulse Vacuum Press the Pulse Vacuum button and the appliance will start to vacuum; let go and the sealer stops. This can be repeated until the bag is vacuumed to requirement. The bag can then be sealed using the Manual Seal button. 8. Progress LED Indicators The indicators show the progress of all working processes. 9.

Troubleshooting Nothing happens when I try to vacuum package.
Check the power cord to ensure it is firmly plugged into the power supply. Check switch is set to “0”. Check to see if the handle has been fully pushed down. Examine power cord for any damages. Make sure the bag is placed correctly inside the vacuum chamber and beneath the air intake.
Air is not removed from the bag completely.
To seal properly the open end of the bag should be placed entirely inside the vacuum chamber area. Check the sealing strip and the foam gasket ensuring there is no debris and is in the correct position. Ensure the gasket is not broken or distorted. Wipe clean and smooth back into place. Check there is no leak in the vacuum bag. Use the vacuum bags recommended by the supplier. Leaks along the seal caused by wrinkling, food and liquids can cause inadequate vacuum. Reopen the bag, wipe the top inside the bag and reseal.
The appliance does There is a vacuum pressure sensor built into the appliance. If not turn to seal the vacuum pressure inside the bag is not at the after vacuuming. predetermined standard the appliance will not seal the bag. Check the sealing strip and the foam gasket for any debris and to ensure the positioning is correct. Ensure the foam gaskets are not broken or distorted. Take them out of the grooves, wash and dry; or replace with a new gasket (supplied by www.andrewjamesworldwide.com) 12
The vacuum bag may have a leak. To test, seal the bag with some air in it, submerge in water and apply pressure. Any bubbles indicate there is a leak. If the food contains a high amount of liquid, it is recommended to freeze it. Please take into account some foods are not suitable for freezing Leaks along the seal caused by wrinkling, food and liquids can cause inadequate vacuum. Reopen the bag, wipe the top Air has re-entered the bag after being sealed.
Leaks along the seal caused by wrinkling, food and liquids. Reopen the bag, wipe the top inside the bag and smooth out any wrinkles then reseal. Fruits and vegetables release natural gases and some foods can ferment. If the food has begun to spoil, discard. If the food has not been refrigerated or the temperature in the refrigerator has fluctuated, this can cause the food to spoil. Check the bag for punctures which may have released the vacuum. If vacuuming foods with sharp points such as bones, cushion the edges with paper towels.
