SAFEGUARDS

Important Safeguards

For your safety, always follow these basic precautions when using a

VacMaster

VP215 Chamber Vacuum Sealer:

1. Read all instructions in this User’s Manual before use.

2. Do not use the VP215 near a heat source or on a wet or hot

surface.

3. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse any part

of the vacuum sealer plug or power cord in water or any other

liquid.

4. Unplug the machine before cleaning or when not in use.

5. To disconnect, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

Do not disconnect by pulling on the cord.

6. Do not operate the VP215 if it has a damaged cord or plug.

7. Do not operate the VP215 if it malfunctions or is damaged.

Contact Customer Service at 800-821-7849.

8. Use the VP215 only for its intended use.

9. Closely supervise children when using any electrical appliance.

Do not allow the VP215 to be used as a toy.

10. The VP215 (120V appliances only) has a grounded plug. Use

only a grounded electrical outlet. To reduce risk of electrical

shock, do not modify the plug in any way.

11. Do not use an extension cord.

12. The power cord should not drape over a counter or tabletop, as

the cord could be tripped over or pulled on unintentionally.

13. Do not place or operate near an electric/gas burner or a heated

oven.

14. Extreme caution and care must be used when sealing or

handling any pouches containing hot liquids.
