And when it&amp;rsquo;s blinking, the unit doesn&amp;rsquo;t work </h2> <div class="bvseo-question-detail"> </div> <div class="bvseo-author">Asked by: Ganderson25</div> <div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="7804888"> Hello. Thank you for reaching out to us.&#10; &#10;We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused, that is not the experience we want for you at all. We recommend the following troubleshooting steps as they may help resolve this issue:&#10;&#10;1. Check the upper and lower gaskets of the machine. If either of these is damaged or dirty, the unit will not vacuum or seal properly. Clean any food materials from the gaskets. Remove the lower gasket, flip it over, reinsert it into the unit, and test the unit.&#10;2. Make sure the open end of the bag is resting entirely inside the vacuum channel. The edge of the bag should not go beyond the vacuum channel. Do not make your own side seams for a FoodSaver bag. They are manufactured with special side seams sealed all the way to the outer edge.&#10;3. Check the bag for leaks. Seal the bag with some air in it. Submerge it in water and apply pressure. Bubbles indicate a leak. If the bag has a leak, a new bag is needed.&#10;4. We recommend you pre-freeze meats and other moist foods for 1-2 hours before vacuum sealing. Excess liquids from moist foods can cause the unit to not vacuum, and permanent damage can occur.&#10;&#10;If you have any more feedback, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website.
