Problem
The weld seam is de-
fective or not properly
sealed in one or more
places.
The  sensor is lit up
even though a drying
cycle has been carried
out. The drawer cannot
be used.
The  sensor lights up
yellow. The vacuum is
less than usual.
The  sensor button
lights up red. A vacu-
uming process cannot
be started.
Cause and remedy
The sealing bar and/or counterpressure bar are dirty
or there are liquid residues on the sealing bar.
 Clean and dry the sealing bar and/or counterpres-
sure bar.
The rubber on the counterpressure bar is not evenly
fitted.
 Flatten the rubber.
The edge of the bag is dirty (inside and out). For a
perfect weld seam the edge of the bag must be dry
and grease-free in the area of the seam.
 Fold the edges of the vacuum sealing bag out-
wards for filling. This will give you a clean, perfect
weld seam.
The edge of the bag was not positioned smoothly and
without creases on the sealing bar.
 Position the bag smoothly and without creases
along the sealing bar.
The drying cycle failed to remove all of the moisture
from the oil circulation system in the vacuum pump.
The drawer is locked and cannot be used for 1 hour.
 Wait for 1 hour and then carry out another drying
cycle (see "Cleaning and care – Carrying out a dry-
ing cycle"). Ensure that the vacuum chamber is
free of liquid residues.
During the food evacuation process, moisture ingress
into the oil circulation system in the vacuum pump
has occurred. This can impair the performance of the
vacuum levels.
 Carry out a drying cycle (see "Cleaning and care –
Carrying out a drying cycle").
During the food evacuation process, moisture ingress
into the oil circulation system in the vacuum pump
has occurred. If the  sensor lights up red, the
drawer is locked for further use.
 Carry out a drying cycle (see "Cleaning and care –
Carrying out a drying cycle").
