WARNING:
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE BATTERIES
AND CHARGER
• Do not store or carry batteries so that metal objects can contact exposed
metal end (Figure 1). Do not place batteries in aprons, pockets, drawers, a
beach bag, etc. with loose nails, screws, keys, etc. without protective bat-
tery caps. Batteries could short circuit causing fire, personal injury, or damage to the
batteries.
• Battery caps are provided for use when carrying batteries or while batter-
ies are stored in a pocket, etc. Remove cap before placing battery in
Charger or unit (Figure 2).
• Never attempt to open batteries for any reason. If the housing of the bat-
tery breaks or cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not recharge.
• Do not incinerate batteries. They can explode in a fire. A small leakage from the bat-
tery cell may occur under extreme usage, charging, or temperature conditions. This
does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer seal is broken and this leakage gets on
your skin:
• (1) wash quickly with soap and water or (2) neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon
juice or vinegar, (3) if the liquid gets into the eyes, flush them immediately with clean
water for a minimum of 10 minutes. Seek medical attention.
NOTE:
The liquid is a 20-
35% solution of potassium hydroxide.
• Do not use an extension cord. Plug the Charger directly into an electrical outlet.
• Use the Charger only in a standard electrical outlet (120V/60Hz).
• Charge batteries only with a 2-port
†
VersaPak
®
battery Charger.
• Do not use Charger for any uses other than charging
†
VersaPak
®
batteries. Other bat-
teries may explode.
• Do not use Charger in wet or damp conditions. Do not use Charger outdoors. Do not
use the Charger near sinks, or tubs. Do not immerse in water.
• Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of a table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
The Charger should be placed or mounted away from sinks and hot surfaces.
• Do not operate Charger with damaged cord or plug.
• Do not operate Charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged in any way. Return the appliance to any authorized service facility for exami-
nation, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment. Do not disassemble Charger.
• For best results, do not charge batteries when they or air temperature is BELOW 40°F or
above 105°F.
• Unplug the Charger before cleaning or maintenance.
• Do not abuse the cord. To reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug or cord, never
carry the Charger by its cord or yank the cord to disconnect from an outlet; instead,
grasp the Charger plug and pull to disconnect. Keep Charger cord away from heat, oil,
and sharp edges.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CHARGING THE BATTERIES (See reverse for “Battery Disposal”)
NOTE:
The
†
VersaPak
®
battery sticks are not fully charged when packed in the carton.
Charge them for at least 6 hours before first use. If your batteries arrive with protective
caps already in place, be sure to remove them by simply pulling them off before
attempting to charge the batteries.
1. Plug in the Charger and insert the metal end of the batteries into the Charger (A).
2. Indicator lights will come on to show the batteries are charging and will remain lit as
long as batteries are in the Charger. After normal usage, your batteries should be
fully charged in 3 hours or less. If the batteries are completely run down, you may
have to charge them for up to 6 hours.
3. While charging, the Charger may hum and feel warm. This is normal.
4. If a battery does not charge properly:
• check the current at the outlet by plugging in a lamp or other appliance there to
see if it will work,
• see if the outlet is connected to a wall switch which controls the power ,
• move the Charger and batteries to a surrounding air temperature of +40°F to 105°F.
5. The batteries should be recharged when they fail to produce sufficient power.
DO
NOT CONTINUE TO USE THE UNIT
with a depleted battery.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING BATTERIES
1. Tilt unit back, open Battery Door at the front of the Base, and insert the batteries—
metal end in. Push them into place and (B) close the Door.
2. To remove/change a battery, open the Door, grasp the battery, and pull out. Replace
with a charged battery and close the Door.
HOW TO USE
1. Before first use, wash the Jar, Lid, and Cap by hand or in a dishwasher.
2. For best results, put liquid into the jar first—do not add ice above the MAX ICE line.
Be sure the Lid and Cap are in place before starting. The Cap measures a standard
Shot Glass. When crushing ice or hard foods, keep one hand on the Lid.
3. Press and
release
the Pulse Control Button (C). (Holding the button down continu-
ously will drain the batteries faster.) Releasing the Pulse Control turns the unit off.
4. Hold the Lid back before pouring.
5. If ice jams, remove the Jar by turning to unlock (
) and lifting off. Turn the
propeller at the bottom of the Jar to the right. Replace the Jar and lock onto the base
(
). Pulse again.
CLEANING
1. Before cleaning, remove the Jar from the Base by turning to unlock (
)and lifting
off. The Jar, Lid, and Cap can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher. Lock back
onto the Base before use (
).
CHARGEMENT DES PILES
(Voir la rubrique relative à la mise au rebut des piles au verso.)
NOTE :
Les ensembles de piles
†
VersaPak
md
ne sont pas complètement chargés à leur
sortie de l'usine. Charger les piles pendant au moins 6 heures avant la première utilisa-
tion. Lorsque les piles sont munies d'un bouchon protecteur, s'assurer de l'enlever en
tirant simplement dessus avant de charger les piles.
1. Brancher le chargeur et insérer l'extrémité métallique des piles à fond dans le
chargeur (fig. A).
2. Les témoins s'allument alors pour indiquer le chargement et ils restent allumés tant
que les piles sont dans le chargeur. Après une utilisation normale, les piles sont
complètement chargées en moins de 3 heures. Lorsque les piles sont complètement
à plat, il peut être nécessaire de les charger de nouveau pendant 6 heures.
3. Le chargeur peut émettre un bourdonnement ou devenir chaud au toucher pendant
le chargement. Il s'agit d'une situation normale.
4. Lorsque la pile n'est pas chargée correctement, il faut faire ce qui suit.
• Vérifier la prise en y branchant une lampe ou un autre appareil.
• Vérifier si la prise est reliée à un commutateur mural.
• Déplacer le chargeur et les piles à un endroit où la température ambiante se
trouve entre 5 °C et 40 °C (40 °F - 105 °F).
5. Recharger les piles lorsqu'elles ne fournissent plus la puissance nécessaire à l'utili-
sation.
NE PAS UTILISER L'APPAREIL
lorsque les piles sont faibles.
INSTALLATION ET RETRAIT DES PILES
1. Faire basculer l'appareil vers l'arrière, ouvrir la porte des piles et insérer les piles,
l'extrémité métallique d'abord. Les pousser en place et (B) refermer la porte.
2. Pour retirer une pile ou la remplacer, ouvrir la porte, saisir la pile et la tirer hors de
l'appareil. La remplacer par une pile chargée et refermer la porte.
UTILISATION
1. Avant la première utilisation, laver le récipient, le couvercle et le verre à la main ou
au lave-vaisselle.
2. Afin d'optimiser les résultats, verser d'abord le liquide dans le récipient. Ne pas
ajouter de glace au-delà de la ligne portant la mention «MAX ICE». S'assurer que le
couvercle et le verre intégré sont en place avant d'actionner l'appareil. Il s'agit d'un
verre à spiritueux standard. Lors du broyage de la glace ou d'aliments, laisser une
main sur le couvercle.
3. Appuyer sur la commande (C) et la relâcher. (On épuise les piles plus rapidement
lorsqu'on appuie continuellement sur la commande.) L'appareil s'arrête lorsqu'on
relâche la commande de marche intermittente.
4. Retenir le couvercle vers l'arrière lors du service.
5. Lorsque les glaçons bloquent, retirer le récipient en le faisant tourner pour le déver-
rouiller (
) et en le soulevant. Faire tourner vers la droite l’arbre de transmission
qui se trouve au fond du récipient. Remettre le récipient sur le socle et le verrouiller
(
) en place. Utiliser à nouveau la marche intermittente.
NETTOYAGE
1. Avant de nettoyer, retirer le récipient du socle en le faisant tourner pour le déver-
rouiller (
) et en le soulevant. On peut laver le récipient, le couvercle et le verre
