Important SafeGUARDS This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for your 12 Volt Lithium-Ion Battery Charger. 1. Read all instructions. 2. To protect against risk of injury, charge KitchenAid 12 Volt Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) batteries only in the provided charger. 3. Do not charge other types of batteries on this charger. Charging other types of batteries on this charger may cause personal injury or damage, fire, or electrical shock. Charging other batteries on this charger, including different voltage KitchenAid batteries other than 12V Li-Ion, will permanently disable or damage those batteries. 4. T his charger 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 charger by a person responsible for their safety. 5. C hildren should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the charger. 6. D o not charge battery in damp or wet locations. Do not use battery or charger in the presence of flammable materials because sparks may be generated when inserting or removing battery, possibly causing fire. 7. C harge in a well-ventilated area. Keep immediately surrounding area clear to allow proper ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open flames near a charging battery. Vented gases may explode. 8. To protect charger cord, excess cord may be wrapped on the underside of the charger. When unplugging charger, pull plug rather than cord to reduce the risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord. Do not use charger with damaged cord or plug. 9. Do not use an extension cord with the charger’s plug. 10. Charger must be plugged into an appropriate receptacle. 11.

Save These Instructions Charging the battery IMPORTANT: New batteries must be charged before first use. When to charge the battery Remove the battery from the KitchenAid cordless appliance for charging when convenient for you, anytime battery indicator lights show less than 25% battery life remaining (ie. only one light remaining in the battery indicator bar), or when battery has been completely drained. Batteries do not develop a “memory” when charged after only a partial discharge. It is not necessary to run down the battery before placing it on the charger. • Use the charge indicator bar on the KitchenAid cordless appliance to determine when to charge your Li-Ion battery. • You can “top-off” your battery’s charge before starting a long session of use. • Charge the battery as needed. The only time it is necessary to charge the Li-Ion battery is when the battery has reached the end of its charge. To signal the end of the charge, the KitchenAid Cordless appliance will no longer display any lights in the battery indicator bar after the unit is unlocked or the battery is first inserted into the cordless appliance. How to charge the battery Align the flat side of the battery with the flat side of the portal in the bay and slide the battery into the charger as far as possible. The charging indicator light will come on, and will either flash slowly (battery is charging), flash rapidly in three (3) consecutive repeating bursts (battery error), or light will remain continuously on (battery is fully charged and is ready for use). • A fully discharged battery with an internal temperature in the normal range (between 0° C and 60° C) will charge in about 3 hours. Frequently used batteries may take longer to charge completely. • After charging is complete, a continuous light will display. • The charger will keep the battery fully charged if it is left on the charger. • If the light indicator flashes rapidly in three (3) consecutive, repeating bursts, check that the battery is fully seated in the bay. Remove the battery and reinsert. If the light continues to flash rapidly, the battery may be extremely hot, cold, wet, or damaged. Allow the battery to cool down, warm up, or dry out and then reinsert. If the problem persists, please contact KitchenAid. • If the indicator light does not come on, check that the battery is fully seated in the bay. Remove the battery and reinsert. If the light indicator still does not come on, please contact KitchenAid. Charging a hot or cold battery A rapidly flashing indicator light on the charger may indicate that the battery temperature is outside the charging range. Once the battery is within the acceptable range, normal charging will take place and the indicator light will display a slower continuous flash if the battery needs charging or display a continuous light if the battery is fully charged. Very warm or cold batteries may take longer to charge. 2
