Bulk Storage Canisters are an excellent way to store food in the
refrigerator or pantry. The Square Canister is great for marinating
since vacuum packaging opens the pores of food and cuts
marinating time down to 20 minutes. They both operate the
same way.

1

Place the items(s) to be vacuum packaged inside the canister.
Leave at least one inch between the contents and the rim of 
the canister.

2

Turn the knob on the lid so the
arrow points to “Vacuum.”

3

Place lid on top of Bulk or Square
Canister.

4

Insert one end of the Accessory
Hose into the Accessory Port on
the machine. Insert the other end
of the Accessory Hose into the
hole on the top of the canister.
Twist the gray hose fitting while
inserting to ensure a tight fit.

5

Set the Sealing Time Adjustment Switch to “1.” 
Vacuum package as per instructions on page 10, steps 5-7.

How to Open the FoodSaver Designer Canister

To open the FoodSaver Designer Canister, press and hold the

the vacuum and allow the lid to be removed.

MPORTANT: Remember to remove the Accessory Hose from the

fitting while pulling it out. Never yank or tug the hose as this
may damage both the hose and the fitting.
