FoodSaver Designer Canisters are an excellent way to store
delicate items in the refrigerator, pantry or on the countertop.
1 Place the item(s) to be vacuum packaged inside the canister. Leave
at least one inch between the contents and the rim of the canister.
2 Place the lid on top of the canister.
3 Insert one end of the Accessory
Hose into the Accessory Port on
the appliance. Insert the other end
of the Accessory Hose into the
hole on the top of the canister lid.
Twist the gray hose fitting while
inserting to ensure a tight fit.
4 Vacuum package as per
instructions on page 10,
steps 6-8.
5 Remove the Accessory Hose from
the lid by gently twisting the gray
hose fitting and pulling up.
How to Open FoodSaver Designer Canisters
To open a FoodSaver Designer Canister, press and hold the
gray rubber button in the center of the lid. This will release
the vacuum and allow the lid to be removed.
IMPORTANT: Remember to remove the Accessory Hose from the
Accessory Port on the appliance before you vacuum package in
FoodSaver Bags. Remove the hose by gently twisting the gray
fitting while pulling it out. Never yank or tug the hose as this
may damage both the hose and the fitting.
