Hello, We apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced with your FoodSaver and will be happy to help you. Please find below a few suggestions which could help you with the mentioned issue: 1. Unit is overheated. Always allow 20 seconds between seals. Under heavy usage, appliance will shut off automatically and Seal Light will flash. Wait for 20 minutes for unit to cool off before attempting to use the appliance again. 2. Gaskets may be compressed. Leave the unit open and allow 10 to 20 minutes for Gaskets to expand. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via https://www.foodsaver.com/support/contact-us or through LiveChat. We&rsquo;re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time.&nbsp; Thank you!&nbsp; FoodSaver&reg; Consumer Care

<h2 class="bvseo-question">
Can you only vacuum seal liquids if it&rsquo;s frozen!? What if you want to vacuum seal a marinated protein and don&rsquo;t want to freeze it because you want to the liquid to marinate into the meat? Does liquids only work with freezing?

<div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="7219104">
Hello, We recommend pre-freezing moist foods if they are vacuum sealed in bags. You can vacuum seal without freezing if using our preserve and marinate containers, so I would advise this for the case of marinated meats. Blanched vegetables for example can simply be dried with a paper towel before vacuum sealing. Additionally, for stews, soups and sauces you can use our new Elite Liquid Vacuum Sealer VS5960 to seal in bags. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via https://www.foodsaver.com/support/contact-us or through LiveChat.

Hello! Thanks for reaching out to us! We will be more than happy to answer your question! This FoodSaver Everyday Vacuum Sealer (VS0230) unit operates on the &quot;push to work&quot; basis instead of using the lever, but it does have a slider on the side that locks the unit for storage purposes. If you have any more issues or inquiries, please reach out to us directly via https://www.foodsaver.com/support/contact-us or through LiveChat. We&rsquo;re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time.
