Operating Instructions

Can Opener
1. Lift the blade bracket and plug the unit into an
electrical outlet.
2. Tip the can forward so that its rim is under the
locating post and the against the drive wheel.
Press down the cutting lever and make sure the
blade is inside the rim (see Fig. 4).
3. The can will rotate and the blade will cut the can
lid open. Because of the hands-free feature, it
is not necessary to hold blade bracket down or
support the can during cutting.
NOTE: In case the total weight of a can is over
18oz, it is necessary to press and hold the can
opener to avoid overturning.
4. When the can is opened, the can opener will
stop automatically. To remove the can, hold it
with one hand and raise the blade bracket with
the other one.
5. CAUTION: Avoid contact with the cut edges of
the can or lids as they are sharp, carefully remove
the lid from the magnet and discard.
NOTE: The time of continuously opening cans should not exceed 3 minutes.
6. The excess cord can be stuffed into cord storage at the back of the unit. Feed the cord through the notch
for convenient storage.
Warning: The cans opened with this can opener must be less than 21 oz in weight.
Can Opening Tips
1. This can opener should not be used to open cans designed to be opened by another method, such as a
pull tab, peel-off foil seal, or rolling key. This can opener will not open rimless cans or cans with angled
corners.
2. If there is a dent in the rim of a can, open the
other end or start the cutting action just beyond
the dent.
3. Cans with heavy seams, uneven rims or odd
shapes may cause the can opener to stall. If this
occurs, turn the can slightly by hand to aid the
cutting action.
4. Cans with aluminum lids will not stick to
the magnet.
Bottle Opener
Before opening bottles, unplug the power supply
from the electric outlet.
1. To open a bottle, grasp it and position the cap
under the metal hook part in the bottle opener
(see Fig. 5).
NOTE: Be sure the bottle neck is not under the
metal hook part, or the glass may break. Hold
the can opener with one hand and pull down to
pop the cap off with the other one.
2. The bottle opener at the front of the unit will only
remove metal bottle caps. Do not use it for the
bottle with screw-off cap or pull ring.
