Under-Cabinet Can Opener Use and Care Guide
Tips
◆
This can opener is designed to open cans only when mounted
under a cabinet. The motor will operate if the unit is not
mounted, but do not attempt to open cans unless properly
mounted.
◆
If there is a ridge in the rim of the can, open the other end or
begin the cutting action immediately after the ridge.
◆
For extremely large or heavy cans, it is recommended that you
lightly support the can as it is being opened.
To Open Bottles
Insert the top of the bottle so the cap is under the metal hook.
Lightly support the back of the can opener and then press the bottle
down until the cap is removed.
To Open Bags
Hold the plastic bag along the right side, with both hands at the top
corner. Insert the upper edge of the bag into the opener and slide
the bag from left to right.
To Sharpen Knife Blade
Place the blade into rectangular opening and move from front to
back several times.
Tips
◆
Be sure knife is clean and free of grease. Greasy or wet blades may
coat the sharpener and the blade will not sharpen satisfactorily.
◆
Do not attempt to sharpen hollow ground or serrated blades.
◆
Raise the knife handle slightly at the end of each sharpening, if
the knife has a curved tip.
◆
Uneven sharpening may occur if you force the knife blade against
the sharpener.
◆
The can opener/knife sharpener is intended for household use only.
