How to Open FoodSaver Bulk Storage or Square Canisters
To open a FoodSaver Bulk Storage Canister 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 package 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 appliance before you vacuum package in
FoodSaver Bags. Remove the hose by gently twisting the gray fit-
ting while pulling it out. Never yank or tug the hose as this may
damage both the hose and the fitting.

Bulk Storage Canisters are an excellent way to store food in the
refrigerator or pantry. The Square Canister is great for marinating
since vacuum packaging opens the pores of food and cuts
marinating time down to 20 minutes. They both operate the
same way.
1
Place the items(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 Place lid on top of Bulk or
Square Canister.
4 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.
5 Vacuum package as per instructions on page 10, steps 6-8.
