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 rubberized hand grip on top of the mandoline
when processing food. Use extreme caution when handling blades as
they are very sharp. Do not attempt to use this Mandoline until you have
carefully studied and understand these instructions. 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 turning the round dial next to the
mandoline, figure 4. Turing in a clockwise
direction only. When holding the man-
doline and looking down the top of the
gliding plate, the gap between the upper
plate and the blade is actually the thick-
ness of the cut. Applying firm pressure
should not change the thickness. How-
ever, take care not to apply too much
pressure to the gliding plate, as the gliding
plate can be forced down due to the use
of excessive force. Only use force rea-
sonably necessary to accomplish the in-
tended cut.
Built in straight Blade (Slicing)
The straight blade (figure 5) is built into
the body of the mandoline. By turning the
thickness adjustment knob, you can select
how thickness of your slices. It is ideal for
slicing a variety of foods, such as carrots,
cabbage, lemons, and potatoes, just to
name a few. Your imagination is the limit.
However, the blades works best on firm
vegetables and fruits. Overly soft vegeta-
bles and fruits will tend to tear, rather than
slice cleanly. The straight blade is espe-
cially 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 5) is also built
into the body of the Mandoline. By adjust-
ing the lever in the bottom (figure 6) you
can control the thickness of your cut. It is
ideal for crinkle and waffle cuts. A crinkle
cut requires only one pass over the blade.
For waffle cuts, you have to adjust the
creating are very thin. First, you make one slicing pass with the serrated blade.
Next, you rotate the safety holder/pusher 90 degrees, and make a second pass
over the serrated blade to complete the waffle cuts.
Note: You must use the thickness adjustment knob so that the food will glide
across the top plate without touching the straight blade, skipping across it down to
the serrated blade. Also, remember when not using the serrated blade, flip the
lever so that it does not protrude.
The Julienne Blades
The julienne blades (figure 7) are built into the unit. You can select between a
2mm or 10mm width julienne cut but turning the dial clockwise. You can only use
the julienne blade in conjunction with the straight cutting blade. Adjust the thick-
ness with the dial to the desire thickness. 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.

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! Beware of the blades built into the Mandoline before attempt-
ing 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.
