Slicing
∙ Adjust the desired thickness of the slices.
∙ Place a suitable collecting tray to the left of the
appliance.
∙ Use the right hand to place the food to be sliced on to
the sliding tray and to press it against the stop plate.
∙ If necessary, place the leftover holder on the food
carriage with the nubby side facing the food. The leftover
holder ensures safe guidance of the food being sliced.
∙ First press the release button with your left hand while
pressing the push button switch.

Press the food to be cut lightly against the blade with the
leftover holder.

Cleaning and care
General
∙ Always remove the plug from the wall socket before
detaching any accessories, and before cleaning the
appliance.
∙ After switching off, always wait until the blade has come
to a complete standstill. Bring the stop plate back to its
rest (zero) position, so that the blade does not protrude.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the
appliance with water and do not immerse it in water.
∙ Do not use sharp, abrasive cleaning agents or hard
brushes.
∙ If necessary, only wipe the housing with a slightly damp
cloth.
∙ The leftover holder and the food carriage can be cleaned
in warm water with detergent (not in the dishwasher).
Cleaning and removing the blade
∙ The blade is very sharp, risk of injury! Only hold the
blade by its centre part; do not hold the blade by its
edge.
∙ Wipe the stainless steel blade with a slightly damp cloth.
You should also regularly clean the space behind the blade:
∙ To release the blade, turn the lock in the middle of
the blade by approx. 90° to the right into the vertical
position.
∙ In order to insert the blade, set it in the blade holder and
turn the lock to the left into the horizontal position.
Detaching the base plate
∙ The support table can be removed for cleaning.
∙ The support table is guided with pins on both sides.
When folded into the vertical position, the support table
can be pulled out of the guide laterally with the pins.
∙ Clean the support table in rinsing water and dry
thoroughly.
∙ After cleaning, reinsert the pins into the guides.
Storing the appliance
For space-saving storage, remove the leftover holder and
food carriage and fold up the support table.
