∙ For safety reasons, check the assembly
for proper seating by trying to pull the
blades slightly out of the housing.
∙ The appliance is now ready for use.
Start-up
∙ Before cutting or slicing can commence,
the electric knife must be switched on by
pressing down on the slide switch in the
housing of the drive unit.
∙ Work the blades slowly through the food
to be cut without applying excessive
pressure. It is not necessary to move
the blades back and forth since the
blades themselves are moving once the
appliance is switched on.
∙ To stop slicing, simply release the slide
switch.
∙ Make sure to remove the plug from the
wall socket.
∙ Wait until the drive unit and the blades
have come to a complete standstill.
The blades can be removed from the
appliance by pressing the release button
and carefully pulling them out of the
housing.
Cleaning and care
∙ Turn off the appliance after use, remove
the plug from the wall socket and wait
until the motor has come to a complete
standstill.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the housing with water and do not
immerse it in water.
∙ The housing may be wiped with a slightly
damp, lint-free cloth.
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions for cleaning.
∙ The blades may be cleaned with hot
water or in a dish-washer.
