2.1 Creating Custom-Sized Bags

1. After creating the bottom seal (as described in Setup 1.3), pull the bag material to the desired length, allowing enough space for the food item and a top seal.
2. Use the integrated cutter to cut the bag material from the roll. Slide the cutter across the bag material to achieve a clean, straight cut.
3. Your custom-sized bag is now ready for filling.

2.2 Vacuum Sealing Food Items

1. Place the food item into the custom-sized bag, ensuring that the open end of the bag is clean, dry, and free of food debris. Leave at least 3 inches of space between the food and the top edge of the bag.
2. Open the lid of the FoodSaver VS2120. Place the open end of the bag into the vacuum channel, ensuring it lies flat across the sealing strip.
3. Close the lid firmly until it latches securely.
4. Select the appropriate mode (Dry for solid foods, Moist for foods with liquids or high moisture content) using the control panel buttons.
5. Press the 'Vac' button to initiate the vacuum and seal process. The machine will automatically remove air from the bag and then create an airtight seal.
6. Once the process is complete, the indicator light will turn off. Open the lid and remove the sealed bag.
