How to Use an OXO Can Opener

Owning an OXO can opener can make opening cans a breeze. Follow these simple steps to ensure you are using your OXO can opener correctly.

Step 1: Positioning the Can Opener

Start by holding the OXO can opener with the handles facing up and the cutting wheel facing down. Place the opener on top of the can lid, making sure the cutting wheel is positioned on the edge of the lid.

Step 2: Clamping and Locking

Squeeze the handles of the can opener together to clamp the opener onto the lid. Then, twist the large knob on the side of the opener clockwise to lock the opener in place.

Step 3: Opening the Can

Hold the can opener securely and turn the knob in a clockwise direction. As you turn the knob, the cutting wheel will pierce the lid and start cutting along the edge. Continue to turn the knob until you have made a full rotation around the lid.

Step 4: Removing the Lid

Once you have completed the rotation, twist the knob counterclockwise to release the cutting wheel from the lid. Lift the OXO can opener off the can, and the lid should come off easily.

• Make sure to wash your OXO can opener after each use to keep it clean and in good working condition.
• If the cutting wheel becomes dull, consider replacing it with a new one for optimal performance.
