Cleaning

Clean the exterior of the unit with a soft, moist damp cloth. If heavy soiled, a mild
detergent can be used.

Blade removal

Please occasionally unscrew the blade and clean the interior of the unit.
Especially, when "juicy" slicing items (tomatoes, fruit, roasts, etc.) were sliced.
Handle the blade with great care!
Pull the carriage all the way towards you.

Preservation of value - blade

For a long-lasting sharpness and for a preservation of the value of your Graef
blade we recommend that the blade be cleaned in regular intervals, especially
after cutting cured meat or ham. They contain salts which when on the blade
surface for a longer period of time could produce so-called "rust film" ( on
"stainless steel" as well). When cutting products which contain a lot of water,
such as tomatoes or cucumbers, a lack or wrong (too "wet") cleaning may
produce rust on the blade surface.
For this reason we recommend that you use a moist cloth and a bit of detergent,
if and when necessary, to clean the blade directly after use. Never put the
blade in a dishwasher, firstly due to decrease in sharpness and corrosion
resistance (salts attack the blade), and secondly due to safety in handling the
blade whilst loading and unloading the dishwasher.

Carriage

To clean the carriage better, it can be removed from the appliance.
Push the carriage bar on the front side (bottom) of the carriage (5. 1 ).
●
Keep it pushed and pull off the carriage towards the back (towards body).
●
Clean the carriage with a moist cloth or under running water.
