• Foil Cutter: A small, serrated blade used to remove the foil seal from the wine bottle neck.
• Wine Corkscrew (Worm): The spiral metal screw that penetrates and extracts the cork.
• Lever/Bottle Opener: The hinged arm that rests on the bottle rim, providing leverage to pull the cork. It can also function as a bottle cap opener.
• Handle: Provides grip and control during operation.

Operating Instructions

1. Opening a Wine Bottle

1. Remove the Foil: Use the small foil cutter blade on the corkscrew. Carefully hook the blade under the lip of the wine bottle and rotate the bottle or the opener to cut around the foil. Remove the cut foil.
2. Insert the Corkscrew: Fold out the corkscrew (worm) and center its tip over the cork. Twist the corkscrew clockwise, applying gentle downward pressure, until the worm is fully inserted into the cork.
3. First Lever Position: Place the first notch of the lever arm onto the rim of the wine bottle. Hold the handle firmly and lift the corkscrew handle upwards. This will partially extract the cork.
4. Second Lever Position (if applicable): If your corkscrew has a second notch, reposition the lever to the second notch on the bottle rim. Lift the handle again to fully extract the cork. If only one notch, continue pulling gently until the cork is removed.
5. Remove the Cork: Once the cork is free from the bottle, gently twist the cork off the worm.

2. Using the Wine Pourer

Insert the wine pourer firmly into the neck of the opened wine bottle. The pourer is designed to provide a smooth, drip-free pour and often aerates the wine as it flows.

3. Using the Wine Stopper

To preserve an opened bottle of wine, insert the wine stopper firmly into the bottle neck. Ensure a tight seal to minimize air exposure and maintain freshness.

Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: After each use, wipe the corkscrew, pourer, and stopper with a damp cloth. For thorough cleaning, hand wash with mild soap and water, then dry immediately.
• Drying: Ensure all components are completely dry before storing to prevent rust or water spots, especially on stainless steel parts.
• Storage: Store the kit in a dry place, preferably in its original packaging or a designated drawer, to protect it from damage and dust.
• Avoid Dishwasher: Do not wash any components in a dishwasher, as harsh detergents and high temperatures can damage the materials.

Troubleshooting

• Cork Breaks: If the cork breaks during extraction, try to re-insert the corkscrew into the remaining cork at a slightly different angle and pull gently. If unsuccessful, consider using a specialized cork extractor tool.
• Difficulty Inserting Corkscrew: Ensure the corkscrew tip is centered and you are applying steady, even pressure while twisting. If the cork is very old or brittle, it may be more challenging.
• Wine Pourer Drips: Ensure the pourer is inserted firmly and straight into the bottle neck. Check for any debris that might be obstructing the pour spout.
