How to Remove the FoodSaver Bottle Stopper
To remove the FoodSaver Bottle Stopper, simply twist and pull
up on the bottle stopper to release the vacuum.
IMPORTANT: Remember to remove the accessory hose from the
accessory port on the Vac 550 before you vacuum package in
FoodSaver Bags.
FoodSaver Bottle Stoppers are the best way to keep wine, oils, and
non-carbonated bottled liquids fresh longer. You will keep their
delicate taste from going stale by not exposing the liquids to air.
FoodSaver Bottle Stoppers are not to be used with plastic bottles.
Also, do not use with any carbonated or sparkling beverages.
Carbonation happens under pressure. A vacuum removes this
pressure, releasing the bubbles and causing the beverages to
become flat.
1
Place the Vac 550 on a flat, dry surface and plug the power cord
into a standard electrical outlet.
2
Insert the bottle stopper into the neck of the bottle. Leave at
least one inch between the contents and the bottom of the
bottle stopper.
3
Insert one end of the accessory
hose into the accessory port on
the Vac 550.
4
Insert the other end of the accessory
hose into the hole on the top of the
bottle stopper.
