OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CONNECTION AND USE
This appliance is for 120 volts only and should
not be used with a converter. We recommend
charging the electric wine opener and wine
preserver for at least 12 hours before first use.
CHARGING YOUR APPLIANCE
Plug one end of the power adapter into the back
of the charging base and the other end into
an electrical outlet. Position the wine opener
and wine preserver in the designated spots on
the charging base, making sure that they are
firmly in position and fully engaged with the
charging connection. If positioned properly,
the charging indicator lights will illuminate. It
will take approximately 8–10 hours to recharge
your appliance. Your wine opener can open
approximately 50 bottles of wine on a full charge.
FOIL CUTTER
For your convenience, this unit has a foil cutter,
which is stored in the base of the unit. Before
removing the cork, you must remove any foil from
the bottle. Attach foil cutter to the top of the wine
bottle. Keep hand on lower part of the bottle
and turn foil cutter with a twisting motion to cut
into foil. Remove foil to expose top part of cork
surface.
CAUTION: Blade on foil cutter is sharp. Please
keep fingers away from cutter's sharp edges.
TO OPERATE YOUR
WINE OPENER
Press the lower part of the switch (indicated by
the down arrow) to remove a cork from the bottle.
Press the upper part of the switch (indicated
by an up arrow) to release a cork from the
mechanism after you have removed the cork from
the bottle.
1.
Place the wine opener on top of the wine
bottle, making sure that it remains as straight/
upright as possible at all times. If you hold the
electric wine opener at an angle to the bottle,
it will not remove the cork properly.
2.
Hold the wine opener firmly and press the
lower part of the switch, indicated by the
down arrow. The corkscrew spiral will turn in a
counterclockwise direction and enter the cork,
then gradually remove it from the bottle. When
the electric mechanism has stopped, the cork
has been fully removed from the bottle.
3.
Lift the wine opener up and away from the
bottle. To remove the cork, press the upper
part of the switch as indicated by the up
arrow. The spiral will turn in a clockwise direc-
tion and release the cork.
4.
Always return the wine opener to the charging
base when done. This will protect the unit
while it is not in use.
TO OPERATE YOUR
WINE PRESERVER
1.
Place the wine bottle on a flat surface.
2.
Insert the bottle stopper into the wine bottle.
3.
Hold the bottle stopper and wine bottle neck
securely in one hand and place the wine
preserver on the bottle stopper.
4.
Keep the wine preserver as straight as pos-
sible and in line with the wine bottle.
5.
Push down on the bottle stopper and press
the power button at the same time.
6.
The wine preserver begins to work,
removing the air from the bottle while
making a clacking noise.
7.
The clacking noise will become slower
and stop suddenly after approximately
20 seconds.
8.
Do not release the power button until the
unit stops.
9.
Remove the wine preserver and replace on
its stand in the upright position until it is
needed again.
10. Always return the wine preserver to the
charging base when done to protect it while
not in use.
11. After sealing the wine bottle, store bottle in
the upright position as wine may leak if it's on
its side.
Note: During the above process, the wine
preserver may attach itself to the bottle stopper.
In this case, hold the bottle stopper and the neck
of the bottle securely in one hand and tilt the
wine preserver away from the bottle stopper to
break the suction. This should prevent air from
re-entering the bottle. If in doubt, repeat the
above operating process.
Suggestion: For more than half a bottle of wine
remaining, one session should suffice. For less
than half a bottle, we suggest you follow the
steps above a second time.
