Causes of Damage
NOTICE
Check the appliance for damage before each use. Pay
close attention to the integrity of the glass lid.
Do not operate the appliance if it appears to be
damaged. Call customer service.
Slowly open and close the glass lid.
Do not place any objects on the glass lid. Do not use
the appliance as a work surface or storage space.
Ensure that no objects can fall onto the glass lid. To
use it, pull the drawer out completely until it stops.
Close the drawer completely if you are not using it.
Before closing the glass lid, make sure that there is no
debris in the vacuum-sealing compartment.
Ensure that the seals are not damaged by pointed or
sharp objects.
Check that the seal on the glass lid is positioned
correctly. Make sure that the seal's contact surface is
clean and free from debris. Otherwise, this may impair
the functionality of the appliance.
Do not operate the appliance if the seal is defective. If
you do so, this may damage the appliance. Call
customer service.
Observe the cleaning instructions.
In the event of a power failure during the vacuum-
sealing process, the vacuum in the vacuum-sealing
compartment is preserved. Never attempt to use a tool
to open the glass lid. Wait until the power supply has
been re-established and restart the vacuum-sealing
process.
Do not vacuum-seal food in its original packaging after
you have opened it. Only use bags that are suitable for
vacuum-sealing food.
In the vacuum, liquids start to heat at low
temperatures. This produces steam and may cause the
appliance to stop working.
Make sure that the food to be vacuum-sealed is at
the lowest possible initial temperature – within
the range of 36 – 46 °F (1 – 8 °C) is best.
Never vacuum-seal liquids in the vacuum-sealing
bag at the maximum vacuum-sealing level.
Recommendation: Vacuum-seal liquids in the
vacuum-sealing bag at vacuum-sealing level 2.
Carefully monitor the vacuum-sealing process. It
is normal for some bubbles to form when vacuum-
sealing liquids. Heat-seal the bag as soon as the
bubble formation visibly increases.
Tip: You can also vacuum-seal liquids in fixed,
commercially available vacuum-sealing
containers. Use vacuum-sealing level 3 for this.
When vacuuming, do not use any plastic bottles
or other vessels that contract during external
vacuuming.

Getting to know the appliance
In the vacuum-sealing drawer, you can vacuum-seal food
in suitable bags and containers. This chapter provides
you with information about the assembly and basic
functions of your appliance.
How does a vacuum-sealing drawer
work?
During the vacuum-sealing process, air is pumped out of
the vacuum-sealing compartment and the bag. This
produces a high vacuum in the compartment. The higher
the vacuum-sealing level, the less air remains in the
compartment and the bag, and the higher the pressure
difference to the environment.
If the selected vacuum-sealing level has been reached,
the heat-sealing bar is pressed against the silicone bar
on the glass lid. As a result, the bag is heat-sealed. After
a short cooling time, air flows back into the compartment,
creating a loud noise. During this process, the bag
suddenly contracts and encloses the food. The drawer's
glass lid then opens.
Different degrees of vacuum can be created with vacuum-
sealing levels 1 to 3. The degrees that are reached here
vary depending on the application: When vacuum-sealing
in a container, the degrees of vacuum are lower and
therefore better suited for particular food. When the
external vacuuming adapter is attached, the vacuum-
sealing drawer automatically detects which mode has just
been activated.

Turning the Appliance On and Off
Touch the ÿ symbol to turn the appliance on or off.
After approx. 10 minutes without any input, the appliance
will automatically turn off.
Vacuum-sealing in a Bag
Vacuum-seal food in an appropriate vacuum-sealing bag
in order to preserve the food for longer, marinate it, or
prepare it for sous-vide cooking.
Appropriate Vacuum-sealing Bags
Use the original vacuum-sealing bags that are enclosed
with the appliance or can be purchased as an accessory.
These bags are suitable for a temperature range of
-40 °F – 212 °F (-40° C – 100° C). This means that they
can be used for storing food at low temperatures and
also for cooking the vacuum-sealed food that is contained
in the bags. The optimum heat-sealing time for this bag is
level 2. The bags are microwaveable. Pierce the bag
before you heat it up in the microwave.
Only use bags that are suitable for vacuum-sealing food.
Commercially available products are different when it
comes to the quality of the food, temperature resistance,
material, and surface. Make sure that the bag is used only
for the purpose for which it is intended.
The heat-sealing time for the vacuum-sealing bag always
depends on the material from which it is made. In most
cases, heat-sealing level 1 is sufficient for heat-sealing
thin bags. Vacuum-sealing bags that are made from a
thicker material require a longer heat-sealing time at heat-
sealing level 2 or higher.
The length of the heat-sealing bar limits the size of the
vacuum-sealing bag that can be used. You should
therefore only use bags with a maximum width of 9½"
(240 mm).
10
en-us
Filling the Bag
Where possible, position the items of food in the vacuum-
sealing bag next to each other and not on top of each
other.
To ensure a proper sealing seam, it is important that the
edge of the bag is clean and dry. To ensure a proper
seam during the heat-sealing process, it is important that
there is no food residue around the seam on the edge of
the bag. Before you fill the bag, you should therefore fold
over its edge by approx. 1¼" (3 cm). Unfold the edge
again once the bag has been filled.
To ensure that you can keep track of your bags and the
food that is vacuum-sealed within them, we recommend
that you make a note on the bag of the date of the
vacuum-sealing along with the contents.
How to Proceed
1. Open the glass lid.
2. Place the vacuum-sealing bag in the compartment.
Note:
Make sure that the food is at the lowest
possible initial temperature – within the range of 34 –
46 °F (1 – 8 °C) is best.
Make sure that the air outlet is not covered so that the
pump can extract the air from the compartment.
Make sure that the center of the bag and the ends of
the bag lie flat on top of the heat-sealing bar. This
ensures that the heat-sealing seam is properly closed.
Make sure that the open end of the bag protrudes over
the heat-sealing bar by approx. 1
3
/
16
in (3 cm) but that
it is not resting on the lid seal.
If required, use the vacuum-sealing platform so that
the bag does not slip.
3. Touch the ° symbol to select the vacuum-sealing
level.
4. Touch the ± symbol to select the heat-sealing time.
5. Tightly close the glass lid and hold it there.
6. Touch the ² symbol to start the vacuum-sealing
process.

At the end of the process, the compartment is ventilated,
and an acoustic signal sounds. You can now open the
glass lid and remove the heat-sealed vacuum-sealing bag
from the compartment.
9 WARNING
Risk of Burns!
The heat-sealing bar in the vacuum-sealing
compartment becomes extremely hot if the
appliance is used over an extended period of time
and there are long heat-sealing times. Never touch
the hot heat-sealing bar. Keep children away from
the appliance.
Notes
At the highest vacuum-sealing level, the process may
last up to 2 minutes. After this time, the bag is heat-
sealed and the vacuum-sealing level that is reached
lights up.
After vacuum-sealing, check the heat-sealing seam on
the bag. Carefully try to pull the seam apart. If it
comes apart, select a higher heat-sealing level and
repeat the process. If the seam is deformed, it has
become too hot. Select a lower heat-sealing level the
next time or allow the appliance to cool.
If you vacuum-seal food in bags several times in
succession, the heat-sealing bar becomes
increasingly hotter. This may impair the quality of the
heat-sealing seam. After several vacuum-sealing
processes, you should select a lower heat-sealing
time or allow the appliance to cool for approx.
2 minutes between the processes.
Premature Heat-sealing
Use this function if you only want to pack your delicate
food in a bag so that it is air-tight, without the contents
sitting too tightly against the bag.
During the vacuuming process, touch the ± symbol to
end the process and heat-seal the bag early.
The appliance displays the vacuum-sealing level until it is
reached.
At the end of the process, the compartment is ventilated,
and an acoustic signal sounds. You can now open the
glass lid and remove the heat-sealed vacuum-sealing bag
from the compartment.
Note: To heat-seal the bag, the vacuum-sealing drawer
requires a specific vacuum level. If you touch the
± symbol first, the vacuum-sealing drawer pumps air out
of the compartment until this level has been reached. The
bag is then heat-sealed.
Canceling the Vacuum-sealing Process
During the vacuuming process, touch the ³ symbol to
cancel the process.
The appliance displays the vacuum-sealing level until it is
reached.
The bag is not heat-sealed. Slightly open the lid and

Vacuum-sealing in a Container
Vacuum-seal food in an appropriate vacuum-sealing
container in order to preserve the food for longer.
Appropriate Vacuum-sealing Containers
Only use containers that are suitable for vacuum-sealing
food. Commercially available products are different when
it comes to the quality of the food and material.
The vacuum hose attached to this appliance has an
internal diameter of
1
/
8
in. (3 mm). You may need an
adapter for your container so that the hose fits. In many
cases, these adapters are already included with the
vacuum-sealing containers.
How to Proceed
1. Open the glass lid.
2. Plug the vacuuming adapter into the air outlet.
3. Secure the hose to the vacuuming adapter and
vacuum-sealing container.
4. Touch the ° symbol to select the vacuum-sealing

process.
The vacuum-sealing process starts. The vacuum-sealing
level indicators blink orange one after the other until the
selected value has been reached.
The vacuum-sealing levels stop blinking as soon as the
target value has been reached. The vacuum-sealing level
that has been reached lights up and an acoustic signal
sounds. You can now detach the hose from the container
and the external vacuuming adapter.
Note: Cancel the vacuum-sealing process if large
bubbles form.
Canceling the Vacuum-sealing Process
During the vacuuming process, touch the ³ symbol to
cancel the process.
The appliance displays the vacuum-sealing level until it is
reached.
You can now detach the hose from the container and the

en-us
Carrying Out the Drying Process
When vacuum-sealing food, the smallest amount of water
gets into the vacuum pump system. This effect occurs
predominantly when you are vacuum-sealing liquids or
extremely moist food. For this reason, the appliance
comes with a drying function, which further removes any
liquid that gathers in the pump.
If the ¢ symbol lights up in white, it is recommended that
you carry out a drying process. However, at this point,
you can continue to use the appliance as normal.
If the ¢ symbol lights up in red, you must carry out a
drying process.
How to Proceed
1. Tightly close the glass lid and hold it there.
2. Touch the ¢ symbol.
The drying process starts and lasts between 5 and 20
minutes. During the procedure, the ¢ symbol blinks
orange. You can close the vacuum-sealing drawer during
the procedure.
At the end of the process, the compartment is ventilated,
and an acoustic signal sounds. You can now open the
glass lid.
Note: It may be the case that a single drying procedure is
not sufficient. If, after one drying procedure, the symbols,
¢ in red and in orange, light up, there is still moisture
in the pump system. Wait until the symbol no longer
lights up and restart the drying process.
Applications
In this chapter, you will find out how you can use your
vacuum-sealing drawer in different applications.
Vacuum-sealing for Sous-vide Cooking
You can use your vacuum-sealing drawer to prepare food
for sous-vide cooking. Sous-vide cooking is a method of
cooking "under a vacuum" at low temperatures between
125 - 200 °F (50-95° C) and in 100% steam or in a water
bath.
The vacuum-sealing drawer is used to heat-seal the food
in a special air-tight, heat-resistant cooking bag.
9 WARNING
Health Risk!
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking at low
temperatures. As a result, it is important that you
always follow the application and safety
instructions below:
Only use high-quality, perfectly fresh food.
Wash and disinfect your hands. Use disposable
gloves or cooking/grill tongs.
Take extra care when preparing critical food, such as
poultry, eggs, and fish.
Always thoroughly wash and/or peel fruit and
vegetables.
Always keep work surfaces and cutting boards clean.
Use different cutting boards for different types of
food.
Maintain the cold chain. Make sure that you only
interrupt it briefly to prepare the food, and then return
the vacuum-sealed food to the refrigerator for storage
before you cook it.
Food is suitable for immediate consumption only.
Once the food is cooked, consume it immediately. Do
not store it after cooking – not even in the refrigerator.
It is not suitable for reheating.
Vacuum-sealing Bags
Use the enclosed vacuum-sealing bags for sous-vide
cooking. You can reorder the vacuum-sealing bags.
Do not cook food in the bag you bought it in (e.g.
portions of fish). These bags are not suitable for sous-
vide cooking.
Where possible, position the items of food in the bag
next to each other and not on top of each other.
14
en-us
Vacuum-sealing
Where possible, use the highest vacuum-sealing level to
vacuum-seal the food. This is the only way to achieve even
heat transfer and therefore the desired cooking result.
Before cooking the food, check whether the vacuum in
the bag is intact. Make sure that:
There is no/hardly any air in the vacuum-sealed bag.
The seam is perfectly sealed.
There are no holes in the vacuum-sealed bag. Do not
use the core temperature probe.
Pieces of meat or fish that have been vacuum-sealed
together are not pressed directly against one another.
As much as possible, avoid piling up vegetables and
desserts when vacuum-sealing them.
If in doubt, place the food into a new bag and vacuum-
seal it again.
Food should be vacuum-sealed at most one day before it
is cooked. This is the only way to prevent the escape of
gases from the food (e.g. from vegetables) which inhibit
the transfer of heat, or to prevent the texture of the food
from changing, and thus altering how it cooks.
Vacuum-sealing Glass Bottles
You can also use the vacuum-sealing drawer to vacuum
and reseal glass bottles, e.g., bottles of cooking oil.
1. Plug the vacuuming adapter into the air outlet. The
outlet for the hose should point vertically upwards.
2. Secure the bottle cap to the bottle opening. Push the
bottle adapter onto the bottle cap.
3. Secure the hose to the vacuuming adapter and the
bottle adapter.
4. Touch the ° symbol to select the vacuum-sealing
level.
Notes
Always vacuum-seal bottles at the lowest level.
Do not vacuum-seal any carbonated liquids, such
as sparkling wine.
5. Touch the ² symbol to start the vacuum-sealing
process.
The vacuum-sealing process starts. The vacuum-sealing
level indicators blink orange one after the other until the
selected value has been reached.
The vacuum-sealing levels stop blinking as soon as the
target value has been reached. The vacuum-sealing level
that has been reached lights up and an acoustic signal
sounds. You can now detach the hose from the bottle
adapter and the external vacuuming adapter. You can now
detach the bottle adapter from the bottle cap.
Fast Marinating and Flavoring
You can use your vacuum-sealing drawer to quickly add
flavor to or marinate food such as meat, fruit, and
vegetables. Marinating your food in the traditional way
usually takes a long time and is not particularly intensive.
When vacuum-sealing in a bag, the food's cell pores
open and the marinade can be absorbed quickly. This
produces a more intense taste in a shorter time.
15
en-us
Storage and Transportation
Extend the storage time for food. Thanks to the low-
oxygen environment in the vacuum, freshly vacuum-sealed
food remains edible for longer when it is stored correctly.
Freezer burn is less likely to occur when the food has
been frozen and vacuum-sealed.
Re-seal food in glass containers, such as jams and
sauces. Vacuum-sealing significantly increases the
storage time.
Notes
You must make sure that the glass containers that are
used are no taller than 3 1/8 in. (80 mm). Taller
containers may damage the appliance's glass lid.
Only use screw-top jars that are stable and intact.
Only tighten the container by hand. The container is
automatically sealed by the vacuum-sealing process.
Not all jars or lids are suitable for being re-sealed
under a vacuum. After the vacuuming process, check
whether a vacuum has occurred: A lid that is curving
inwards and can only be opened with a lot of force is
an indication that the vacuuming process has worked.
If the lid makes a "clicking" sound when it is pushed in
and released and if it is easy to open, no vacuum has
occurred. Repeat the vacuuming process or use more
suitable screw-top jars.
Store food such as cheese, fish, or garlic without any
unpleasant odors. The hermetic sealing that takes place
during vacuum-sealing means that no unwanted odors
can get out and the flavor cannot be absorbed by other
food.
Sealed vacuum-sealing bags or vacuum-sealing
containers are the ideal means of transport for liquid
foods. They are easy to handle, leak-proof, and space-
saving.
Recommended Settings
When stored correctly, vacuum-sealed food stays fresh
longer. At higher vacuum-sealing levels, the quality,
appearance, and ingredients of the food are better
preserved.
The following table provides you with recommendations
for the vacuum-sealing levels for different foods. Observe
the specific information on the recommended vacuum-
sealing levels as well as on preparing the food.
Notes
Only use fresh food. Check the quality of the food
before vacuum-sealing it.
Only vacuum-seal cold food – within a temperature
range of 34 – 46 °F (1 – 8 °C) is best.
Start at the lowest of the recommended vacuum-
sealing levels.
Check the quality of the food after you remove it from
storage. Do not use any food that is of questionable
quality.

begin to heat. At this point, the
process of creating a vacuum
stops.
Only vacuum-seal cold liquids.
If the vacuum-sealing chamber is
wet, wipe it dry.
Heat-seal the vacuum-sealing bag
early if large bubbles form.
Select a lower vacuum-sealing
level.
The vacuum-sealing
process will not start.

appliance several times
in succession, the vac-
uum-sealing process
seems to run as normal
but the bag is not heat-
sealed.

least 10 minutes. Then try again.
Allow the appliance to cool for at
least 2 minutes between vacuum-
sealing operations.

One drying cycle alone was not
sufficient.
Wait until the symbol is no lon-
ger lit up. Then start another dry-
ing cycle.

tic bag is not retained.
The bag is bad. Sharp parts of the food (for
example bones) may poke holes
in the bag.
Check the bag for damage. Use a
different bag if it is damaged. If
the damage is caused by sharp-
edged parts of the food, as far as
possible, position these in the
bag in such a way that they cannot
damage the wall of the bag.
The heat-sealed seam
is bad.
The heat-sealing time you have
selected is unsuitable for the
plastic from which the bag is
made.

sealed seam.
Make sure that the bag is dry, that

ing bar.
Use a different bag. Fold over the
edge of the bag by 1¼ in (3 cm)
before you fill it.
