How to Vacuum Package Using FoodSaver

Designer Canisters

FoodSaver Designer Canisters are an excellent way to store delicate items in the refrigerator, pantry or on the countertop.

1Place the item(s) to be vacuum packaged inside the canister. Leave at least one inch between the contents and the rim of the canister.

2Place the lid on top of the canister.

3Insert 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.

4Vacuum package as per instructions on page 10, steps 6-8.

5Remove the Accessory Hose from the lid by gently twisting the gray hose fitting and pulling up.

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.

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.
