[. . . ] Important safety instructions Before the appliance is used, the main unit as well as any attachment fitted should be checked thoroughly for any defects. Should the appliance, for instance, have been dropped onto a hard surface, it must not be used any longer: even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance. This appliance is not intended for use by any person (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lacking experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. [. . . ] - When the can opener is switched on, a clicking noise may be heard. This sound is normal and does not in any way impede the appliance's function. - When opening larger cans of around 1000 g or more, the can must be guided by hand during the opening process. - When opening cans with a damaged rim, it may be necessary to re-position the can opener several times. - Cans which are normally opened with a key, or cans with a soldered-in lid, may be opened at the bottom if a suitable rim exists. Operation The can opener has been designed for short-term operation only, i. e. it should not be operated continuously for more than 1 minute. Switch off the appliance - - - afterwards and allow the motor to cool down sufficiently before switching it on again. Hold the can opener in the right hand and lift up the operating lever with your thumb. Place the can to be opened with your left hand next to the cutting mechanism in such a way that the underside of the rim sits on the serrated transport wheel. Push down the lever until the cutting blade touches the surface of the can. Bring the magnet into position by lowering it down onto the lid of the can. The appliance is switched on by increasing the pressure on the operating lever which in turn will activate the pulse switch located underneath the lever. The cutting blade is automatically drawn into the lid and will begin to cut. Once the lid is cut completely free, the opener will automatically switch off. The opening process can be interrupted at any time by simply pulling the operating lever up. [. . . ] If within the guarantee period, please also provide the guarantee card and proof of purchase. General care and cleaning The housing of the can opener may be wiped with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions. To facilitate cleaning, the operating lever together with the magnet holder and blade can be removed from the housing. [. . . ]
