How do I unscrew/ pry open the lid?

I had the same problem. You should be able to unscrew the lid. If not, use plyers. Then take a screwdriver amd just keep "stabbing" that flat part until you puncture it. All you need is a small hole. Hope that helps!

No need to puncture anything, use sharp end of knife to slowly pry the inner cap round and round, little by little until you can lift it with your fingers

I don't know if this is correct, but it's how I did it. After I unscrewed the lid, I secured the can and punctured the top with a screwdriver. Be careful!

I stuck a nail along the edge between the inside lid and the container and hammered for a second pushing the inside lid in. Then I was able to squeeze in a tiny screwdriver and could use that to wedge the inside lid out.

It is a screw-off lid but is very difficult the first time. I used an "ice pick" and put it through the slots and it helped me free the bond and unscrew the top. You can use a screwdriver or any kitchen tool (spoon?) that can fit through the slot. After that first time, it is easier to work.

There is a button on top of the handle that pops open the lid. The unit is well designed.

Press down on the Release button and then pull off. It is a bit rough at 1st but you will get it. Also, it helps if you hold opposite diagonal corners to pull off the lid.

There are two screws on top and opposite each other where the glass meets the metal. The screws require a flat head screwdriver for removal. Once they are removed the lid will lift off enabling access to the bulb area.

I am not at home to look at my container but if I remember correctly, there is a little piece of plastic somewhere around the lid that you snap off. When this piece is off, you have a place to put your finger to pry off the top.

I used the small blade of my pocket knife to push the lid upwards on one side, then push upwards on the other side. After several triesl I had worked the lid up about 1/8" inch, then I could twist it off. When you close it don't push it down all the way, then you can twist it off easily.

Remove the strap (I'm sure you did that already but just in case) and put your hands on either side of the lid where the strap used to be. Use your fingers to push in the plastic tabs and lift up. The lid should come right off. The plastic tabs on the lid fit into slots on either side of the base.

Alright I nearly broke the lid trying to press the tabs and yank at the same time, after scratching it up with a butter knife. Here's what worked for me: There is a circle on the bottom of the lid, with tabs on opposite sides, and 4 small arrows that show how to align the lid when you go to put it back together.. Press ON the middle of the white circle, while applying pressure to the tabs with your fingers and pull. The middle part of the circle stays attached to the top of the lid, the rest of it comes off. I used the knuckle of my index finger to press on the circle, then just lightly squeezed the sides where the tabs are with thumb and middle finger. Voila, lid came right off.

you have to turn off the pump first--start turning the lid 1/2 turn then push in tab (button) on side of lid--then turn another 1/2 turn to the next tab (button) to fully remove-----hope this helps---think of opening a medicine bottle cap

You simply pry it open with a fingernail. There is a small gap on the bottom of the unit that allows your nail to get between the top and bottom sections of the outer shell.

To close the lid, just put it back on, use your thumb & middle finger and squeeze the side until it pops to close.

Slide the top part across and position the two silver knobs on the lid, snap the top part back in place to lock the lid and remove.

Very simple...open the gripper teeth larger than your lid (turn counter-clockwise). Place opener flat on jar lid & turn handle clockwise until tight. If you're holding the handle in your left hand, push the handle away from you. Note: The lid you're trying to remove must be larger than 3/4" in diameter.

There is a pull tab on the lid that may require a pair of pliers to tear it around and free it from the main part of the lid. Also, I think you have to use a pair of scissors or a knife to get the tear started. It is not easy.

Just drop the lid down, press down and it auto-snaps shut. You can then also use the key to lock it.

Try taking the lid off when it is not sealed. Then seal it and try it again. You'll have major trouble removing the lid if it's sealed.
