INTENDED USE

The food slicer is used for the slic-
ing of household foods.

ries may occur or the appliance

BEFORE USING THE
APPLIANCE FOR THE
FIRST TIME
Preparation
Remove the appliance carefully
from the packaging. Remove all
packaging parts and keep these
together with the packaging in a
safe place. Clean the appli-
ance before allowing it to come
into contact with any food (see
CLEANING).
Setting-up the appliance
• Set the appliance down on a
flat, non-skid surface close to a
mains socket.
Using a small amount of
force, push the slice carriage (9)
vertically into the guide groove on
the appliance until it audibly locks
into place.
Slide the left-over holder (10)
onto the slice carriage's handle.

SLICING
Use the slice thickness adjust-
ment knob (2) to set the required
thickness.
Note:
The slice thickness adjustment
scale is not a millimetre scale.
For safety reasons, the "0"
position is designed to cover the
blade.
Place the food to be sliced
onto the slice carriage (9). Use
the left-over holder (10) to press
it up against the stop plate (11).
Protect your hands, by always
using the slice carriage and,
where applicable, the left-over
holder. Exception: Excessively
large foods to be sliced.
Turn the appliance on using
the power switch (1). Two operat-
ing modes are available:
Temporary operation:
Press the power switch and slide
it towards the arrow until you
feel some resistance. The rotary
blade (6) runs as long as the
power switch is pressed and held
down in this position.
Continuous operation:
Press the power switch and slide
it towards the arrow beyond the
resistance point until it latches
into place. The rotary blade runs
without the power switch having
to be pressed and held down,
until you push the power switch
back into the "0" position.
Note:
Never use the appliance for more
than a maximum of 5 minutes in
continuous operation.
• With the appliance running,
gently feed the food to be sliced
into the path of the rotary blade.
• Once slicing has been com-
pleted, wait until the rotary blade
has come to a complete stop.
/ fino • After each use, turn the slice
1
thickness adjustment knob to the
"0" position, in order to cover up
the sharp rotating blade and to
avoid any injuries.

CLEANING
Caution:
Switch the appliance off before
cleaning it; pull the power plug
out off the socket and turn the
slice thickness adjustment
knob (2) to the "0" position.
Clean the food slicer regularly
to prevent the accumulation of
food residue. The rotary blade
must also be cleaned regularly
as described below to prevent its
surface from rusting.
Note:
Over time, an accumulation of
food residue may cause damage
to the surface of the rotary blade,
causing it to rust.
