Instructions For Use
Before use
A. Charging Your Wine Opener
The batteries in your wine opener have not been fully charged. Before using,
the batteries must be charged until all three blue lights are illuminated.
With a full charge, your wine opener will open around 50 bottles of wine.
Your wine opener will be fully charged in approximately 2.5 hours.
N.B. To charge the main unit, insert the Micro USB end of charging lead
into the charging port at the back of the main unit. Plug the USB end
directly into the adapter plug and then into a mains supply outlet.
Battery Life Indicator Lights
The indicator lights will flash blue, when the battery is being charged. When
all three lights are illuminated, this means the battery is fully charged and
is then ready to use. As the battery starts to run down, the indicator lights
will turn off. The battery will need to be recharged when the last indicator
light is flashing. If the battery has completely run down on the unit, it will
not operate.
N.B: The Wine Opener cannot be used while it is plugged in and charging.
B. Foil Cutter
For your convenience, this unit has a foil cutter, which is stored in the base
of the unit. Before removing the cork, you must remove any foil from the
bottle. Attach the foil cutter to the top of the wine bottle. Keep your hand
on the lower part of the bottle and turn the foil cutter in a twisting motion
to remove the foil. The top part of the cork surface will now be exposed.
CAUTION:
The blade on the foil cutter is sharp. Please keep fingers away
from the cutter’s sharp edges.
C. To Operate Your Wine Opener
1. Place your bottle of wine on a flat surface and hold the bottle firmly
with one hand. N.B The Wine Opener can be used to remove natural or
synthetic corks.
2. Place the Wine Opener on top of the wine bottle making sure that it
remains as straight/upright as possible at all times. If you hold the Wine
Opener at an angle to the bottle, it will not remove the cork properly.
3. Hold the Wine Opener firmly and gently push down on the top of
the bottle. The corkscrew will start automatically and will turn in
an anticlockwise direction to gradually remove the cork. When the
mechanism has stopped, the cork has been fully removed.
