FAQs
How often should I empty the special fluid compartment?
It is recommended to empty and clean the special fluid compartment after each use, especially when sealing moist foods, to maintain optimal performance and hygiene.
Can I use any type of plastic bag with the AENO VS2?
It is best to use bags specifically designed for vacuum sealing to ensure proper compatibility and a reliable seal. The product is compatible with standard vacuum sealer rolls and bags.
What is the purpose of the pulse mode?
The pulse mode allows you to manually control the vacuum process by pressing a button intermittently. This is useful for delicate foods that could be crushed by a full vacuum, or for positioning food items correctly within the bag before sealing.
Is this vacuum sealer suitable for liquids like soup?
The AENO VS2 is not designed for sealing liquids directly. While the fluid compartment helps with moisture, sealing soups or broths would require a specialized method, such as pre-freezing the liquid or using a specific type of liquid-containment bag not typically included.
What is the warranty period for the AENO VS2?
The AENO VS2 Vacuum Sealer comes with a 2-year guarantee.
How do I clean the sealing bar?
Wipe the sealing bar gently with a damp cloth after unplugging the unit. Ensure it is completely dry before the next use. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
Can I seal items in my own containers?
Yes, the AENO VS2 includes a container adapter that allows you to vacuum seal items in compatible vacuum jars and food containers, offering greater versatility.
Troubleshooting
Vacuum sealer not turning on
Check if the power cord is securely plugged into both the unit and a working electrical outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the 'on' position.
Incomplete vacuum or seal
Ensure the bag opening is clean and dry, and positioned correctly between the sealing jaws. Check if the special fluid compartment is overflowing. Verify the bag material is compatible with the sealer.
Unit stops mid-cycle
This could indicate an overheat protection. Allow the unit to cool down for a few minutes before attempting to use it again. Check for any blockages or errors indicated by the color indicators.
Excessive moisture preventing seal
Ensure moist foods are patted dry or excess liquid is within the special fluid compartment. If sealing very moist items, consider using a double bag or ensuring the fluid compartment is emptied after each use.
