Press Escape to clear the error. The knife rotates slightly to dislodge any jammed supply.

Clear the tag path by using needle-nose pliers to pull the jammed tags out of the knife.
Caution: Do not
place your fingers near the knife’s blade.
Do not
use excessive force to remove tags. This may damage the knife.
See “Using Knife Diagnostics” if these steps do not free the jammed supply.
