Hello! Please, find below a few tips that can help with the aforementioned issue: 1. Your FoodSaver appliance might not be vacuuming at its desired potential and can be showing signs of being overheated. Avoid vacuum-sealing large quantities of food in succession and allow the unit to rest with the lid open for at least 20 seconds between each seal - as FA20000 is connected to the unit, it may also influence its work. 2. Check the sealed area. A wrinkle, moisture or food material along the sealing area will prevent to complete a successful seal and allowing air to leak out form the bag or roll. It is important to make sure there is no moisture in this area. If the food attempted to vacuum-seal was rather oily or greasy, the juices can spill liquids that prevent the bag to seal correctly. Holes might appear and leakages allowing air to sweep out from the bag. Try to pre-freeze your food to avoid excess of juices. Another alternative is to use our Liquid Block Bags ensuring that the sealing is cleaned. For dry food, make sure the unit is levelled and the bag is firmly stretched while inserting. 3. From FoodSaver we recommend vacuum-sealing always with the smooth side of the bag facing up. 4. Check your bag for punctures. In order to test it, please make a bag from your roll, seal both ends and submerge the created bag for a few seconds in water and look for bubbles. 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. Thank you!

Hello, this is from FoodSaver Thanks for reaching out to us. We will be more than happy to answer your question! To clean: Wash in warm soapy water&mdash;Air dries before replacing. To remove the reservoir from the handheld sealer, hold the top portion (black upper piece) firmly and pull the lower reservoir down and off. I hope this information proves useful.
