IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Note: It is important to follow food safety guidelines when using The Pistol Vac Vacuum Sealer System.

1. This appliance is not for use by children. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children.

2. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or 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 stand, as there are no user-serviceable parts.

4. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by Waring may result in re, electrical shock or injury.

5. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse The Pistol Vac, charging stand or charger in water or other liquids.

6. Do not use outdoors or for other than intended use.

7. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven; to avoid battery leakage, overheating, smoking and/or other damages, do not put the appliance or charger in a microwave.

8. Do not vacuum seal objects with sharp points like sh bones and hard shells. Sharp points may penetrate and tear the bags.

9. Do not use bags to vacuum seal soups or other liquids.

10. Do not impact, vibrate or throw the appliance.

11. To avoid re or other failure, do not use the appliance in a place with volatile gas.

12. To avoid degradation of its performance and loss of the battery life, do not store the appliance in a high temperature, high humidity, or dusty place.

13. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

14. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage or under a wall cabinet. When storing in an appliance

garage, always unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of re, especially if

the appliance touches the walls of the garage or the door touches the unit as it closes.

15. When charging or storing the battery, if there is abnormal heating or deformation, you should stop use immediately.

16. If there is battery leakage or a strange odor, please keep away from re.

PARTS AND ASSEMBLY

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. The Pistol Vac

2. Bags (12 quart sized & 12 gallon sized)*

3. Zip tool

4. Valve

5. Tr igger

6. Suction cup

7. Suction base

8. Inner suction nozzle

9. Charging stand

10. Charger (not shown)

1. Place food in bag (2) and close with the zip tool (3).

When vacuum sealing foods that

contain some liquid (i.e., 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 (4) and pull the trigger (5) 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. Sealing is complete when The Pistol Vac begins to make a straining noise, signaling that all of the air has been removed. You will also see that the bag has shrunk tightly around the food.

Press on the red valve after sealing is complete to ensure it

is completely sealed.

3. Store bags in the refrigerator, freezer or cupboard to keep food fresher longer.

* Additional bags can be purchased at your local retailer or online

at waringpro.com.

Keep food in the proper storage place, following the 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.
