Operating Your Vacuum Sealer
To make a bag:
1. Place the unit on a firm, level surface near an electrical
outlet.
2. Insert the roll of bagging material in the roll compartment in the sealer. We recommend you use only the
plastic material supplied by Deni, for Freshlock models.
3. Plug into an AC electrical outlet.
4. When starting a new roll, remove the sticker from the
outside of the roll. Pull the bagging material 1 inch past
the sealing wire. Close the lid. NOTE: The roll is folded
into a double layer.
5. Close the lid and press down
equally on both the left and
right sides of the lid. Both
indicator lights will light up.
In about 6 seconds the green
“Seal” indicator light will go
out and the seal is complete.
6. Lift the lid and tear off the excess bagging material.
NOTE: When closing the lid and applying pressure, two
distinct clicks will be heard. These are the switches
which operate the two functions of the bag sealer.
3

7. After the roll is started, pull the bagging material to the
desired bag width and seal/cut by closing the lid and
pressing down on both sides of the lid. NOTE: The first
side of the bag will be sealed from the previous seal.
8. When the green “Seal” light goes out, peel the finished
bag off the wire, ensuring no bagging material adheres
to the sealing wire. Now you have a bag sealed on three
sides ready to be filled and vacuum sealed. NOTE: The
bottom of the bag is where the white label strip is.
Sealing a filled bag without vacuum action:
1. Make sure no food or liquid remains in the top portion
of the bag where the seal will be made. This may
interfere with the effectiveness of the seal.
2. Place the open end of the bag over the sealing wire,
making sure that the bagging material is flat, with no
creases along the line of the seal.
3. Close the lid and press down on both
sides of the lid, until the green “Seal”
light goes out.
NOTE: Remove the bag from the wire
immediately after the green “Seal”
light goes off. If the bag starts to cool it may stick to the
wire and create a hole in the seal when pulled off the
wire.

®

Vacuum sealing:
1. Place the item to be stored inside the bag. Do not fill
completely. Allow a margin of 2 to 3 inches between
the item and the open end of the bag. Make sure that
the sealing area is free from liquid or food particles.
Place the open end of the bag over the sealing wire
and insert the vacuum nozzle completely inside the bag.
Note: The bottom layer of the bag should be under the
nozzle and the top layer of the bag should be over the
nozzle.
2. Close the lid and press lightly with
your left hand on the left side of
the lid to activate the vacuum
motor. Only the red “Vacuum”
light will illuminate. The air will
be extracted from the bag. DO
NOT press down on the middle or right side of the lid,
this will block the flow of air.
3. When the air extraction is
complete, continue to press the
left side of the lid and press your
right hand down firmly on the
right side of the lid. A second
click will be heard and the green “Seal” indicator will
light up. When the “Seal” light goes out, the bag is
sealed.

NOTE: It is not advisable to extract air from bags containing
liquid. The liquid can easily be drawn into the working
mechanism and cause damage.
“Boil-in-bag” reheating:

Foods cooked with the boil-in-bag method retain a high level of flavor
and nutrients. As an added precaution, it is recommended that food in
a Freshlock bag be placed inside a second, larger Freshlock bag and
vacuum sealed before cooking. Boil-in-bag cooking is great for
vegetables, fruits, casseroles, soups, stews, and fish.

1. Put the bag in boiling water and bring to a boil again.
Do not cover. Do not puncture.
2. Reduce heat and maintain low boil.
3. Cooking time is measured from the second boil. The
time taken to cook will be reduced by approximately
one third compared with the usual cooking methods.
Do not boil for longer than approximately 20 minutes.
Foods can be cooked straight from the freezer, but it is
recommended that large quantities are defrosted prior
to cooking.
Microwave cooking:
1. Place bag on a microwave safe plate or dish.
2. Puncture bag several times with a fork to allow steam to
escape during microwave cooking. Consult your
microwave instruction booklet on heating commercially
prepared boil-in-bags for times.

Boil-in-bag foods retain their flavor, the saucepan
remains cleaner, cooking odors are reduced, and it
saves energy.
The vacuum removes the air from the bag, prolonging
storage life, and retaining food color. It also saves
space in the freezer or cupboard.
To achieve an efficient seal, ensure that the area to be
sealed is completely clean and dry.
Also ensure that there are no creases or wrinkles in
the bag which would prevent a perfect seal.
Allow approximately 11/2” margin between the food
and seal to allow for expansion when freezing and
cooking.
Do not use the vacuum sealer on cling film, as the heat
will melt this type of film.
The white stripe on the bag is for labeling.
When packing boiling foods, allow them to cool for
5 minutes before packing.
Do not vacuum air when sealing liquids in bags.
Remember that seasonings and flavorings alter or
intensify during storage, so reduce the amount of salt,
pepper and spices in dishes to be frozen.

Caring For Your Vacuum Sealer
1. Before attempting any cleaning operation, remove the
plug from the outlet.
2. Simply wipe the sealer with a soft, damp cloth. Do not
immerse in water. Do not use any abrasive cleaners.
3. If particles of plastic adhere to the sealing wire, wipe
them off carefully to avoid damage to the wire. It may
help to carry out a sealing operation (closing the lid and
pressing fully down) without a bag in position. This will
heat the wire and soften any plastic adhering to it.

The Freshlock Sealer Has Many Uses:
Food Storage
n Buy food in bulk volume or on sale at low cost and then
package for storage.
n Package meat, fish and poultry to freeze or to
refrigerate.
n Package ingredients for special recipes.
n Pre-package servings for the weight-conscious or those

n Save time by pre-cooking meals on weekends and then
packaging individual servings. Food is then ready to
reheat during the busy week. Cook by microwave,
boil-in-bag or open and cook by conventional methods.
n Pack lunches for school or work.
