Before using for the first time
- Clean the can opener as described in the
section General care and cleaning.
- When the can opener is switched on, a
clicking noise may be heard. This sound
is normal and does not in any way
impede the appliance’s function.
- When opening larger cans of around
1000 g or more, the can must be guided
by hand during the opening process.
- When opening cans with a damaged rim,
it may be necessary to re-position the can
opener several times.
- Cans which are normally opened with a
key, or cans with a soldered-in lid, may
be opened at the bottom if a suitable rim
exists.
Operation
●The can opener has been designed for
short-term operation only, i.e. it should
not be operated continuously for more
than 1 minute. Switch off the appliance

afterwards and allow the motor to cool
down sufficiently before switching it on
again.
- Hold the can opener in the right hand
and lift up the operating lever with your
thumb.
- Place the can to be opened with your left
hand next to the cutting mechanism in
such a way that the underside of the rim
sits on the serrated transport wheel.
- Push down the lever until the cutting
blade touches the surface of the can.
Bring the magnet into position by
lowering it down onto the lid of the can.
- The appliance is switched on by
increasing the pressure on the operating
lever which in turn will activate the pulse
switch located underneath the lever. The
cutting blade is automatically drawn into
the lid and will begin to cut.
- Once the lid is cut completely free, the
opener will automatically switch off.
●The opening process can be interrupted
at any time by simply pulling the
operating lever up.
- After opening, hold the can with your left
hand and lift the operating lever with
your right thumb.
- The lid, once free, is securely held by the
magnet and may be removed by hand.
●Caution: take extreme care when
removing the lid from the magnet: the
thin metal edges can easily cause serious
injury.
General care and cleaning
●The housing of the can opener may be
wiped with a slightly damp, lint-free
cloth.
●Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
●To facilitate cleaning, the operating lever
together with the magnet holder and
blade can be removed from the housing.
To remove, lift up the operating lever all
the way and then pull it out sideways.
Follow the steps in reverse order to re-fit
the assembly after cleaning.
●To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the can opener with water and do
not immerse it in water.
Disposal Do not dispose of old or defective
appliances in domestic garbage;
this should only be done through
public collection points.
