PARTS IDENTIFICATION
BEFORE FIRST USE
CLEANING
Remove any dirt and dust from your knife before its rst use. Clean the detachable
handle with a damp cloth. Wash the blades separately with hot, soapy water. Dry all
parts thoroughly.
CHARGING
Your knife’s battery is only partially charged. Charge the batteries completely before
using the appliance. When charging the indicator light will turn red. Do not
operate the knife while connected to the charger. The batteries are completely
charged when the battery indicator light turns green. It will take around 1.5 hours
to fully charge from a dead battery. On a full charge, you can use your knife for
approximately 70 minutes.
NOTE: Only use the charger provided by the manufacturer. Do not leave your knife
connected to the charger for longer than necessary, as this will reduce your battery
life. Never use knife while charging.

HOW TO ASSEMBLE & USE
CAUTION: The blades on your knife are very sharp. Always handle them with care,
keeping sharp edges away from your hands, hair and body.
ASSEMBLE YOUR BLADE
Your blade assembly consists of two pieces. Hold the end of one piece by its safety
guard. Insert its rivet into the keyhole of the other piece. Align the two pieces, en-
suring the tips remain together. (See Figure 1).
CONNECT YOUR BLADE
Hold in the blade release buttons on either side of your handle. Insert and push
your blade assembly into the slots in the handle until they will go no further (see
Figure 2). Release the buttons to lock the blade assembly into place. After inserting
blades, check they are secure before using.
OPERATING YOUR BLADE
1. Unlock the ON/OFF button on the handle by pushing and holding the safety-
switch forward (see Figure 3). Ensure you hold the knife rmly.
2. Hold the blade parallel to the cutting surface and while continuing to hold the
safety switch forward press the ON/OFF button to begin cutting (see Figure 3).

HOW TO DISASSEMBLE
3. Release the ON/OFF button to stop the blades moving. The safety switch will
automatically return to the lock position when the ON/OFF button is released.
REMOVE BLADE
Press and hold both blade release buttons with one hand. With your other hand,
carefully remove the blade assembly from its slots. Separate the 2 blades with care
and wash in hot soapy water and dry thoroughly.
USEFUL TIPS
1. Your knife can easily scratch your kitchen bench tops. Always slice your food on
a wooden or plastic cutting board.
2. Don’t force your blades through the food. Let the knife cut gently at its own
pace, and avoid sawing motions.
3. To keep your blades sharp, avoid cutting through hard substances like bone
and fruit pits.
4. After cooking your meat, let it rest for at least 10 minutes before you cut it. This
gives the juices time to set and makes the meat easier to cut.
5. You can leave trussing string on your meat, but remove any skewers before
cutting.
6. Use a carving fork to steady your meat while cutting.
7. Do not attempt to sharpen your knife’s blades. This is unnecessary and may
damage the appliance.
8. Your knife requires little to no maintenance. Do not attempt to service or repair
this appliance yourself.
9. Should you experience any difculty in using your knife, please contact our
customer service team.
