after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service
center for examination, repair or adjustment.
3. Do not attempt to open The Pistol Vac or charging base, as

heated oven; to avoid battery leakage, overheating, smoking
and/or other damage, do not put the appliance or charger in a
microwave.
8. Do not vacuum seal objects with sharp points like sh bones

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place food in bag (2) and close with
the zip tool (3).
When vacuum sealing foods that contain
some liquid (e.g., chicken or marinated
foods), seal the bag while it is in a vertical
position. Do not lay it at on a counter as
liquid may interfere with the valve. (If liquid
does get into the valve, follow the cleaning
instructions on page 8.)
2. Position The Pistol Vac on the red valve
on the bag and pull the trigger (4) to
remove air.
The vacuum sealing process takes only
seconds. If it is taking longer, it could mean
that the bag has not been properly closed.
Close fully using the zip tool, then resume
pulling the trigger.
If The Pistol Vac battery is depleted,
you can plug the adapter directly into
The Pistol Vac to use. Sealing is complete
when the bag has shrunk tightly around
the food.
Press the red valve on the bag after sealing
to ensure it is completely sealed.
3. Store bags in the refrigerator or
freezer to keep food fresher longer.
Keep food in the proper storage place, following food safety
guidelines. If storing for a long period of time, it may be
necessary to check to see if the vacuum seal is still completely
tight. If not, use the sealer to remove any air that may have
entered over time.

GUIDELINES FOR VACUUM SEALING
1. IT IS IMPORTANT TO FOLLOW FOOD SAFETY GUIDELINES
WHILE USING THIS APPLIANCE.
2. DO NOT overll the bag; leave enough empty space for The
Pistol Vac to come in contact with the valve.
3. Do not leave too much air inside the bag. Press bag to allow
extra air to escape before closing and vacuum sealing it.
4. Do not vacuum seal objects with sharp points (e.g., sh
bones or hard shells). Sharp points may penetrate and tear
the bags.
5. Do not use vacuum sealer system to store soups or other
liquids.
6. During the sealing process, small amounts of liquids,
crumbs or food particles can inadvertently enter into the
suction cup, clogging the pump and potentially damaging
your appliance. If this happens, immediately release
the trigger and follow the cleaning instructions on
page 8.
To prevent this, follow these tips:
a) For moist and juicy foods such as raw meats:
Seal the bag closed while it is in a vertical position.
b) For powdery or ne-grained foods: avoid overlling bags.
You can also place a paper towel inside before vacuum
sealing it.
NOTE: Bags are meant for one-time use. This will eliminate the
possibility of contracting a food-borne illness.

PREPARING FOOD FOR THE FREEZER
To vacuum seal unfrozen foods that will go in the freezer, leave
two extra inches of space to allow for expansion during freezing.
Before storing foods such as tortillas, crêpes or hamburger
patties, use wax or parchment paper to separate them. This will
make it easy to remove only the amount of food needed at a
time. Re-seal the rest of the food immediately and replace in the
freezer.
GENERAL RULES FOR FOOD SAFETY
• Begin with the freshest food possible. Vacuum sealing
extends the life of foods by removing air from the bags that
they are stored in. Removing air can also stop the growth of
microorganisms, which under certain conditions can cause
problems. Even under proper storage conditions, food may
lose freshness if stored for too long. To preserve food safely,
it is important to store food at recommended temperatures.
• The suitable way to defrost sealed food is to place it in the
refrigerator until defrosted or place under cold running water.
Never defrost foods in hot water or a microwave oven.
• If you open a previously vacuum-sealed bag and remove only
some food, immediately re-vacuum seal the bag and store it in
the proper place.
COOK
Boil or microwave right in the bag!
The vacuum bags are approved for freezing, boiling and
microwaving. FDA approved for food contact, and BPA-free bags
are food safe. (Cooking time varies.)

CLEANING, CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Always unplug the appliance before performing any cleaning
and maintenance operations.
NOTE: Be sure to wash all parts thoroughly to avoid foodborne illness.
1. Rotate the suction base to the unlock position and pull it
outward to remove. Rinse the suction base with warm soapy
water.
2. The rubber inner suction nozzle is removable for cleaning.
Wash with warm soapy water.
3. Clean The Pistol Vac charging base and the suction base
with a non-abrasive cloth.
4. Ensure that parts are completely dry before reassembling.
TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTE: If the appliance has not been used for a long time, you will
need to recharge it before use.
If nothing happens when you pull the trigger, you may need to do
the following:
1. Be sure that the unit is charged.
2. Check the appliance parts to be sure that they are not
loose. If they are loose, tighten them and resume the sealing
process.
The unit will not charge:
1. Check that the unit is properly connected with the charging
base so that the LED is illuminated.
2. Be sure that the electric outlet is working properly.
3. Be sure you are using the provided battery charger, model
number YLS0301A-T075250, to charge the unit.
It does not work right after being charged:
1. Make sure the LED lights are illuminated during charging.
If not, properly connect The Pistol Vac to the charging base
so that the lights are illuminated.
8
2. If the LED indicator lights are on, make sure that The Pistol
Vac has been charged long enough (1.5 – 2 hours for fully
charged battery).
Air is not removed from the bag completely:
1. Bags are not sealed: re-align the zipper and be sure the
entire zipper is closed.
2. Make sure the valve is clean. You may need to replace the
zip bag.
3. Extend the vacuum sealing time.
The LED lights go out during charging:
1. The battery is too hot; when it cools down the LED lights will
return to normal.
2. The battery is damaged; you need to replace it.
The LED lights blink during charging:
1. Take off The Pistol Vac and reset it on charging base.
2. Rub the conductor plates on The Pistol Vac with a dry cloth
and reset The Pistol Vac on the charging base, making
sure it is in proper contact with the conductor plates on the
charging base.
