IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
Please read all instructions.
To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put can opener, cord, or plug in
water or other liquid.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Turn unit off and unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off
parts, and before cleaning.
Avoid contacting moving parts.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance
malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to an authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
Keep the cord away from the Knife Sharpener and the path of the knife being
sharpened to prevent fire or shock hazard.
The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may
cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
Do not open pressurized (aerosol type) cans.
Do not open cans of flammable liquids such as lighter fluids.
Do not operate this appliance in the presence of explosive and/or flammable fumes.
This appliance is intended for household use only and not for commercial or industrial
use.

POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polar­ized plug—one blade is wider than the other. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact a quali­fied electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature by modifying the plug in any way.

How To Use

1. Plug the cord into a standard, 120-volt electrical outlet.
2. Press the Door Release Button and the door will open. (Figure A)
3. Lift the Lever, tip the can on an angle so that the rim is under the metal post. (Figure B) Press the Lever down making sure the Cutter is inside the rim of the can. Because of the hands-free feature, it isn't necessary to hold the Lever down or to hold onto the can during cutting.
4. When the can is opened, the Can Opener will stop automatically. To remove the can, tilt it slightly away from the unit with one hand and raise the lever with the other.
5. You may push excess cord back into the unit and “nest” the plug in the niche under the unit for conve­nient storage.
CAN OPENING TIPS
• This Can Opener should not be used to open cans that are designed to be opened by another method, such as a pull tab, peel-off foil seal, or rolling key. This Can Opener will not open rimless cans.
• If there is a dent in the rim of the can, open the other end or start the cutting action just beyond the dent. Cans with heavy seams, uneven rims or odd shapes may cause the Can Opener to stall. If this occurs, turn the can slightly by hand to aid the cutting action.
KNIFE SHARPENING TIPS
• Clean and dry knives before sharpening.
• Do not attempt to sharpen serrated blades, as this will smooth their edges. Do not attempt to sharpen scissors.
USING THE KNIFE SHARPENER
1. The slot in the Sharpener is slanted at an angle for left and right-hand use.
2. Insert the knife into the slot and carefully pull the blade through and slightly up towards you. Repeat until you achieve desired sharpness. (Figure C)
