Start a drying cycle red

The Start a drying cycle sensor control lights up red. A vacuuming process cannot be started.

When vacuum sealing food, moisture got into the oil circulation system in the vacuum pump. When the Start a drying cycle sensor control lights up red, the drawer is locked and cannot be used again.

Carry out a drying cycle as follows:

The vacuum chamber must be free from objects and liquid residues when carrying out the drying cycle.

Clean and dry the vacuum chamber.

Touch the  Start a drying cycle sensor control.

Close the glass lid.

The drying cycle starts. The  Start a drying cycle sensor control will flash yellow throughout the entire process.

You can cancel the drying cycle with the  Start a drying cycle sensor control.

If a drying cycle is canceled, it must be repeated after the remaining vacuum sealing processes have elapsed or when the drawer is switched on again.

When the drying cycle has finished, a signal sounds and the Start a drying cycle sensor control goes out. You can now use the drawer again as usual.

The last selected vacuum setting and sealing level are displayed on the control field.
