I seem to only get it to open like once every ten tries. You are supposed to turn right until in rotates loosely (which is locked, ie unengaged) then turn key left until it engages, some kind of snap, then push hard to unscrew cap. THe last step is hit and miss. Several attendants said it is "counterintuitive". ANyone know what I am doing wrong?
