Description
Operation
- Connect the appliance
- Take the can opener by its handle.
- Lift the lever (fig.1) and raise the hinged magnet (fig. 2).
- Introduce the can in a slightly tilted position, bringing its edge on the serrated wheel
(fig. 3 and 4).
- Lower the lever and press gently, then flip down the magnet: the can will start to turn
as soon as the knife enters and cutting will be performed automatically (fig. 5).
- The motor will stop automatically when the lid has been cut.
- Hold the can and raise the lever; the magnet will hold the cut lid (fig. 6).
Practical hints
- If there is an obstacle (bump, notch, weld or tab) on the edge of the can, start opening
a little afterwards or open on the other end of the can. Some supposedly “stackable”
cans can only be opened on one end (that is the broadest one).
- Aluminium can lids will not be held by the magnet.
- You must hold big food cans with the other hand during operation.
Cleaning
- Disconnect your appliance after use.
- Disassemble the lever by raising it to the maximum and then take it out of its recess
by pulling it towards you (fig. 7 and 8)
- Wash the lever in hot soapy water, rinse it and leave to dry fully.
- Use a damp cloth to wipe the motor unit (do not immerse it) and clean the serrated
wheel.
- To re-assemble the lever, replace it in its recess and lower it.
- You can stow the power supply cable in the recess provided.
