IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed
including the following:
1. 1. Read all instructions. For your safety, every user should read this manual.
2. To protect against electrical hazards, do not immerse the Graef Hybrid® sharpen-
er in water or other liquid.
3. Make sure that only clean knife blades are inserted in Model CC80.
4. Disconnect the appliance from its power source when not in use, before cleaning,
during service and when replacing parts.
5. Avoid contacting moving parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appli-
ance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner.
7. Please return your sharpener to your local distributor where the cost of repair or
electrical or mechanical adjustment can be estimated. If the supply cord of this ap-
pliance is damaged, it must be replaced by a repair facility appointed by the man-
ufacturer because special tools are required. Please consult your Graef distributor.
8. CAUTION! This appliance may be fitted with a polarized power plug (one blade
is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in
anyway.
9. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by Graef may cause fire, electric
shock or injury.

Asian style knives as described in following sections. Do not attempt to sharpen
scissors, ax blades or any blade that does not fit freely in the slots.

sharpener should always be on a stable countertop or table.
