CHARGING & BATTERY  
LIFE  
Your Cuisinart® Cordless Rechargeable Salt  
& Pepper Mills are equipped with NiMH  
batteries. We have selected these batteries  
to give you maximum battery life and long  
running times.  
If batteries should run down completely, it  
will take between 12 and 18 hours to fully  
recharge them. Normally, you won’t run  
batteries down completely, since the running  
time with a full charge is up to 20 minutes. It  
varies depending on your usage, but most  
grinding tasks take only about 5 seconds. If  
your battery is no longer charging, it is time  
to replace the battery. Please call our  
Consumer Service Center at 1-800-726-0190  
to order a new battery.  
Your Cuisinart® Rechargeable Salt & Pepper  
Mills have a light on the underside of the mill  
that turns on when the ON button is  
depressed. This allows you to see just how  
much you are dispensing. When your light is  
no longer working, please contact our  
customer service center at 1-800-726-0190  
to order a new lightbulb.  
ADJUSTING THE GRIND  
To perfect the grind from fine to coarse, use  
the adjustment dial on the underside of the  
mill. Clockwise for a finer grind and  
CONTINUOUS CHARGING  
The unit is designed so that the batteries  
may remain on continuous charge. It is  
recommended that the Cuisinart® Cordless  
Rechargeable Salt & Pepper Mills charger be  
kept plugged into a wall socket, so that the  
mills will always be ready to use. Leaving the  
unit on continuous charge is inexpensive in  
terms of the amount of electricity being  
used.  
counterclockwise for a coarser grind.  
QUICk TIPS  
• Before first use, the batteries must be  
charged for 16 hours.  
• To clear a peppercorn that is stuck in the  
grinding wheel you may either:  
1. Turn the mill upside down and shake  
gently while depressing the “On/Off”  
Power Button”.  
Use only with the charger provided with  
the appliance. Do not attempt to use this  
charger with any other product. Likewise,  
do not attempt to charge this appliance  
with any other charger.  
2. Turn the mill upside down and position  
the grind selector to coarse, then hold  
over a plate and grind until peppercorn  
is no longer stuck.  
HOLDING THE CHARGE  
• Never use moist or wet spices in the mills.  
This will clog the grinding mechanism. We  
recommend using only store-bought dried  
spices.  
The batteries hold most of their charge even  
when not plugged in and charging, losing  
only about 30% of total charge per month.  
• To improve battery performance, it is  
recommended that you occasionally  
unplug the charging base and use each  
mill until its battery is fully discharged and  
it stops operating. Once discharged, plug  
the charging base back into the electrical  
outlet and recharge the mills for 16 hours.  
SHORT RUN TIMES  
If, after repeated use, the run time seems  
to get shorter and the Salt & Pepper Mills  
have less power, remove the plug from the  
wall outlet and continue to use mills until  
both are fully discharged and stop operating.  
Plug base back into wall outlet and recharge  
5
the unit for 16 hours or overnight for a  
full new charge. This procedure improves  
battery capacity and should be repeated  
once every 2–3 months to ensure optimum  
performance.

Your Cuisinart® Cordless Rechargeable Salt  
& Pepper Mills have been manufactured to  
the strictest specifications and have been  
designed for use with the authorized  
accessories and replacement parts. This  
warranty expressly excludes any defects or  
damages caused by accessories, replacement  
parts, or repair service other than those that  
have been authorized by Cuisinart. This  
warranty does not cover any damage caused  
by accident, misuse, shipment or other  
ordinary household use.  
Important: If the nonconforming product is to  
be serviced by someone other than Cuisinart’s  
Authorized Service Center, please remind the  
servicer to call our Consumer Service Center  
at 1-800-726-0190 to ensure that the problem  
is properly diagnosed, the product is serviced  
with the correct parts, and the product is still  
under warranty.  
This warranty excludes all incidental or  
consequential damages. Some states do  
not allow the exclusion or limitation of these  
damages, so these exclusions may not apply  
to you.  
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY:  
California law provides that for In-Warranty  
Service, California residents have the option of  
returning a nonconforming product (A)  
to the store where it was purchased or (B)  
to another retail store that sells Cuisinart®  
products of the same type. The retail store  
shall then, at its discretion, either repair the  
product, refer the consumer to an  
independent repair facility, replace the  
product, or refund the purchase price less the  
amount directly attributable to the consumer’s  
prior usage of the product. If the above two  
options do not result in the appropriate relief  
to the consumer, the consumer may then take  
the product to an independent repair facility  
if service or repair can be economically  
accomplished. Cuisinart and not the consumer  
will be responsible for the reasonable cost of  
such service, repair, replacement, or refund  
for nonconforming products under warranty.
