Blade Assembly

To Assemble Blades:

1. Hold blades by the non-serrated ends with the plastic guards on either side. Make sure that

the serrated edges are on the same side. Slide the rivet of the blade into the keyhole slot on

the other blade.

To Assemble Blades into Power Handle:

1. Make sure the knife is unplugged. Hold the assembled blades by the plastic guard in one

hand (serrated edges facing down) and the motor unit in the other hand with the power

button in the uppermost position.

2. Carefully insert the blades (serrated edges facing down) into the slot on the power handle

with buttons facing upwards and push gently until they click securely.

To Disassemble Blades from Power Handle:

1. Unplug the knife.

2. Holding the plastic guards, press the blade release button on the power handle body.

3. Pull blades away from the power handle body.

4. Separate the blades by sliding the rivets from one blade out of the keyhole slot of the

other blade.

Before First Use

1. Remove all packaging materials.

2. Clean the blades with dishwashing liquid, and a non-abrasive sponge. Use caution as the

blades will be extremely sharp.

3. Wipe the inside and outside of the appliance with a cloth.

Using the Appliance

1. Plug into power outlet.

2. Ensure that the product to be carved is secure, for example, by using a carving fork.

3. Press and hold down the on/off switch.

4. Guide the blades through the food ensuring body parts, clothing and utensils are away from

the moving blades. It is not necessary to use a sawing motion or excessive pressure.

5. To stop the blades, release the on/off button.

NOTE: Your electric knife is designed to cut through "ready to roast" joints, but can also

be used to cut thick bread, cheese and meats with ease. If the blade release button is

accidentally pushed during operation, the blades will disengage. As a result, the knife may

stall or will not cut properly. Be sure to position your hand behind the blade release button

during operation.

Cleaning

1. Ensure the power outlet is switched off, then unplug the product before removing the blades

and / or cleaning.

2. Remove the blades.

3. Separate the blades by sliding the rivet from one blade out of the keyhole slot of the other

blade.

4. Carefully wash the blades in warm soapy water.

5. Dry thoroughly and carefully slide the plastic safety sheath over the blades.

6. Wipe the power handle with a damp cloth. Never immerse the power handle in water or any

other liquid.

7. Clean the carving fork with warm soapy water and dry thoroughly.

Storage

1. Make sure all parts are clean and dry.

2. Store inside the case when finished drying.

Tips for Use:

• Carve on a wooden board. Glass or plastic cutting boards may be scratched by the knives.

• Use a carving fork to hold the food securely. Before carving cooked meats, allow the meat to

stand at least 15 minutes after removing from the oven allowing the juices to set. This

makes it easier to slice and offers a cleaner cut.

• Do not cut through hard objects, such as bones or frozen foods as blades may become

damaged or may break.

• The carving blade can be used for multiple tasks, such as carving turkey, chicken, ham or

roasts, as well as vegetables like eggplants or squashes, and for fruits like pineapple or

melons.

• The slicing blade is made specifically for breads and loaves. It can be used to slice fresh

breads, bagels, sandwich buns, meatloaves, cake loaves like banana breads, etc.

• The key to carving turkey or chicken thighs, legs and wings is to cut through the joints and

not the bones, and pulling at the parts while cutting to loosen the joint.

• For best results when cutting through thick bread, hold the knife at a slight angle while

cutting.

• Once you have cut through the crust, finish slicing the bread with the knife blade parallel

with the bread.

• When cutting meat, it is recommended to tilt the meat during the final cutting movement to

prevent cutting through the chopping board.
