SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
POLARIZED PLUG INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into the
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not properly fit into the
outlet at first, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact a competent qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. Extension
cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

•The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least that of
the appliance. If the electrical rating of the extension cord is too
low, it could overheat and burn.
•The resulting extended cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
For a safe use, your appliance is fitted with a sliding food platform or
food carriage (5), and pusher with a thumb guard (6 & a) to fully
protect your hands.
Use the platform to make to and from motions along the blade to cut
the slices. Use the handle to move it.
The pusher allows you to keep the food when slicing by holding your
hand far from the blade. Therefore, it is recommended to always use it
except if the food is too large and, in this case, keep it as far as possible
from the blade.
1. Clean all parts of the appliance before the first use.
2. Make sure the appliance is steady and add the pusher (a) on the
carriage(5).
3. Plug in the appliance. The slicer is now ready for use.
4. Place a plate or a dish behind the blade to collect the slices.
5. Move the platform away from the blade and lay the food to be
sliced on the stainless-steel plate.
6. Push the food against the positioning plate (1) with the pusher and
select the slicing thickness by turning the adjustment knob (8).
7. SAFETY SWITCH: Your appliance is equipped with a safety switch. To
turn the appliance ON, push the switch to the right. While holding
the switch to the right, push on the ON/OFF button simultaneously.
The blade will start rotating
8. Push the carriage towards the right to bring the food to the blade
(2). Use the handle of the carriage and keep the pressure on the
mobile side of the appliance thanks to the pusher. For best results
we recommend to not apply too much pressure.

9. If it becomes difficult to slice the food (important braking of the
blade), move back a little bit and start the operation again by
approaching the blade slowly.
10. To avoid food sticking to the appliance and to improve the slicing,
you can moisten or oil the blade with a wet towel beforehand.
11. Do not slice meat with bones, food with large seeds, rolled roast
without removing the string, wrappers (i.e. aluminum foil), frozen
food or any hard, inedible food parts.
12. To turn the appliance OFF, simply push the ON/OFF button and the
appliance will turn off.
CAUTION: The blade may still be rotating. Wait for the blade to stop
rotating completely before any next steps. For safety reasons, the slice
thickness dial must be returned to the “0”, position after use.

STORAGE
When not in use, it is recommended that the thickness adjustment dial
gets turned down all the way until the mark “0”, so that the blade’s
sharp edge is concealed - this to avoid any risk of accidental cuts or
injuries.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
A lubricant paste is applied at the factory to ensure correct lubrication
for the first uses. After this, the first time the blade is removed, the user
can remove the extra lubrication paste or leave it. The paste is food
safe. No extra lubrication will be needed afterwards.
Cautiously cleaning the blade after use as indicated in the user manual
should avoid cross-contamination. Deep cleaning by removing the
blade is only necessary from time to time.
