How to Open FoodSaver Bulk Storage or Square Canisters
To open a FoodSaver Bulk Storage or Square Canister, turn the
knob on the canister lid so the arrow points to “Open.” This will
release the vacuum and allow the lid to be removed.
NOTE: Do NOT attempt to vacuum seal any contents that are
warmer than room temperature, since the vacuum may cause
the contents to bubble out of the canister.
IMPORTANT: Remember to remove the Accessory Hose from the
Accessory Port on the FoodSaver 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.
FoodSaver Bulk Storage Canisters are an excellent way to store
food in your refrigerator and pantry. The Square Canister is great
for marinating since vacuum packaging opens the pores of food
and cuts marinating time down to 20 minutes. Both styles of
canisters work the same way.
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 Turn the knob on the lid so the
arrow points to “Vacuum.”
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 insert-
ing to ensure a tight fit.
4 Place the lid on top of the canister.
5 Switch the Sealing Adjustment
Switch to “1” or “2.”
6 Vacuum package as per instructions
on page 10, steps 6-8.
