Introduction
Your MIU France Stainless Steel Mandoline features a selection of blades
with variable thickness adjustments which make it one of the most versa-
tile kitchen tools available for slicing and cutting vegetable and fruits. By
switching blades and adjusting the thickness of each cut, this Mandoline
can produce various cut styles including French fry, julienne, paper-thin,
crinkle, and waffle cuts.
Warning: Blades are extremely sharp. Always use the included safety
holder / pusher and please read all instructions and use with care and
caution. Always hold the hand grip on top of the Mandoline when proc-
essing food. Use extreme caution when handling blades as they are very
sharp. Never store your blades loose in a drawer or on the countertop.
Always use the included plastic storage holder. Do not attempt to use this
Mandoline until you have carefully studied and understand these instruc-
tions. Failure to do so may result in injury to yourself or the Mandoline.
All metal parts of the Mandoline are made up of high quality 18/10
stainless steel, making the Mandoline completely dishwasher safe. The
straight carbon blade is for slicing while the serrated blade is mainly used
for crinkle or waffle cuts. The julienne blades can create vegetable or fruit
sticks of various widths. The stainless steel guiding plate located on the
upper section of the Mandoline is for adjusting the thickness of the vege-
table or fruit slices. Finally, the safety holder / pusher protects your hands
from the blade. For use on the kitchen counter, unfold both the upper and
lower legs. When you want to use the Mandoline directly on a container
such as mixing bowl, the Mandoline should lay flat across the container,
but please remember not to fold the upper leg.
Note: For best results, vegetables should be pre-cut into manageable
chunks in order to properly fit within the safety holder.

Using Your Mandoline
Adjusting the Thickness
You can adjust the thickness of a given cut
by loosening the black plastic knob on both
sides of the Mandoline and adjusting the
upper glide plate to the thickness of cut
desired and then tightening the knobs on
both sides (figure 4). When holding the
Mandoline and looking down the top of the
gliding plate, the gap between the upper
plate and the blade is actually the thickness
of the cut. Applying firm pressure should
not change the thickness. However, take
care not to apply too much pressure on the
gliding plate. Avoid undue force, as the
glide plate can be forced down, changing
the thickness of the cut
Inserting Blades
Warning: Please hold blades by their han-
dle to prevent accidental injury.
Straight Blade (Slicing)
The straight blade (figure 5) must be in-
serted from the side of the Mandoline in the
horizontal slot, (figure 6). It is ideal for slic-
ing a variety of foods, such as carrots, cab-
bage, lemons, and potatoes, just to name a
few. Your imagination is the limit. How-
ever, the blades works best on firm vegeta-
bles and fruits. Overly soft vegetables and
fruits will tend to tear, rather than slice
cleanly. The straight blade is especially
useful to make paper thin slices. It must be
use in conjunction with a julienne blade to
create julienne cuts.

Serrated Blade (Crinkle & Waffle Cuts)
The serrated blade (figure 7) must be in-
serted from the side of the Mandoline in the
horizontal position (figure 6). It is ideal for
crinkle and waffle cuts. A crinkle cut re-
quires only one pass over the blade. For
waffle cuts, you have to adjust the height of
the upper plate so that the slices you are
creating are very thin. First, you make one
slicing pass with the serrated blade. Next,
you rotate the safety holder/pusher 90 de-
grees, and make a second pass over the
serrated blade to complete the waffle cuts.
Note: The serrated blade should not be
used in conjunction with julienne blades,
because the blades may interfere with each

The Julienne Blades
The julienne blades (figure 8) must be inserted on the opposite side of the straight
blade in the vertical position (figure 9). You should only the julienne blade in con-
junction with a straight slicing blade (figure 5). Always hold the julienne blades by
their handle. They are ideal for making sticks, fries and shoestring potatoes.
These blades are to be inserted into the side of (i.e. body) opposite the side that
the straight and serrated blades are inserted into (figure 6). Insert the desired
width julienne blade and be sure to insert it all the way into the slot, seating firmly.
Adjust the thickness of the upper plate and then place the vegetable lengthwise
into the safety handle. Use firm and even pressure to slide the safety holder/
pusher from the upper glide plate down to the lower glide plate. Avoid undue
force, as the glide plate can be forced down, changing the thickness of the cut.

Care and Cleaning
The Stainless Steel Mandoline is designed to require only minimal mainte-
nance. The body and the blades are dishwasher safe, but hand washing
is always preferred to extend product life. The slicing blade should be
sharpened from time to time, while the serrated blade should be brought
to a cutlery specialist for occasional sharpening services. Any good gour-
met store should be able to give a recommendation. For storage, place
Mandoline in a clean, dry location.
Warning! Always remove blades from the Mandoline before attempting
to clean to prevent laceration.
It is recommended to wash the Mandoline in hot water before use. It
should also be washed after every use, with hold soapy water in the sink
or in the dishwasher. Rinse with hot water in order to flush out vegetable
residues. You may then towel and/or air dry. Do not clean the Mandoline
with any implement which might damage the edge of the blades. The
Mandoline does not require any lubricating greases or oils. Lubricants
that are unsafe for human consumption should not be applied.
Blade Storage
The straight ,serrated and julienne
blades should be stored in the plastic
holder as shown in figure 10.
