6. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped or damaged in any way, or is not oper­ating properly. Return the appliance to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Center for examination, repair, mechanical or electrical adjustment.
8. The use of attachments or accessories not recommended by Cuisinart may cause fire, electrical shock or risk of injury.
9. This appliance is intended for household use only and not for commercial or industrial use.
10. This product contains nickel-metal hydride batteries, which must be recycled at the end of the batteries’life. (Please see Battery Safety and Disposal section). Do not incinerate or compost batteries, as they will combust at high temper­atures.
11. Do not incinerate the multi-grater, even if it is severely damaged. The batteries can explode in a fire.
12. Leaks from battery cells can occur under extreme condi­tions. If the liquid, which is a 20–35% solution of potassium hydroxide, gets on the skin, (1) wash quickly with soap and water or (2) neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar. If the liquid gets into eyes, flush them immedi­ately with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek medical attention.
13. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
14. Do not remove or add parts while operating the unit.
15. Avoid contact with moving parts.
16. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully. Always handle process­ing drums by the plastic ends.

BEFORE FIRST USE
Place the package containing the Cuisinart® Cordless Rechargeable Multi-Grater on a sturdy surface and unpack all pieces, being sure to remove all packaging materials from in and around the unit.
To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, wipe the charging base and main body with a clean, damp cloth.
The 3 drums, drum cover, hopper assembly and pusher can all be removed from the unit and washed with warm soapy water or placed on top rack of dishwasher.
Be sure to rinse and dry thoroughly. Read all instructions completely for detailed operating
procedures.
ASSEMBLING YOUR MULTI-GRATER
After your multi-grater has been thoroughly cleaned, be sure it is properly assembled before using.
1. Be sure that all parts are completely dry prior to assembly.
2. Insert the hopper into the left hopper cover, lining up the 2 tabs. It will click into place.
3. Attach the right hopper cover, ensuring it clicks to lock into place.
4. Attach the hopper assembly to the main body of the unit by inserting the tabs on the bottom of hopper assembly into the open slots on the main body.
5. Slide away from the handle to secure.
6. Insert the desired processing drum into the hopper, being sure the end with gear is facing out.
7. Slide the drum cover into position.
8. Attach the food pusher to the handle, pressing it firmly into place.
9. Your multi­grater is now ready to charge.
CHARGING YOUR MULTI-GRATER
NOTE: The batteries included in this unit are not charged.
Before initial use, the batteries must be charged for 24 hours to insure maximum operating capability. For best performance, fully discharge and recharge the battery 3 times before first use.
1. Ensure the multi-grater is properly assembled.
2. Attach the DC plug of the charger cable to the charging base.
3. Place assembled multi-grater onto charging base, ensuring the multi-grater locks into place.
4. Plug charger into a 120V - 60Hz AC outlet only.
5. The red light will illuminate to indicate the main unit has been correctly placed on charging base and that it's accepting a charge. If the red light is not illuminated, lift and reposition unit on the charging base.
6. If after repositioning, the red light is still not illuminated, check to ensure that the power cord is securely plugged into outlet and the DC plug is securely plugged into the charging base.

If problem persists, please contact our Customer Service
Center at 1-800-726-0190 to have your multi-grater replaced.
NOTE: To ensure the longest battery life, unit must be charged for a minimum of 24 hours for the initial charge.
WARNING
Do not immerse charger, charging base or main body in water or any other liquid. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleansers on any part of the appliance.
CONTINUOUS CHARGING
The unit is designed so that the batteries may remain on continuous charge. It is recommended that the Cuisinart Cordless Rechargeable Multi-Grater charger be kept plugged into a wall socket so that the grater will always be ready to use. Leaving the unit on continuous charge is inexpensive in terms of the amount of electricity consumed.
Use only with the charger provided with the appliance. Do not attempt to use this charger with any other product. Likewise, do not attempt to charge this appliance with any other charger.
HOLDING A CHARGE
The batteries hold most of their charge even when not plugged in and charging, losing only about 30% of total charge per month.
SHORT RUN TIMES
If, after repeated use, the run time seems to get shorter and the multi-grater has less power, remove the plug from the wall outlet and continue to use the grater until it is fully discharged and stops operating. Plug base back into wall outlet and recharge the unit for 16 hours or overnight for a full new charge. This procedure improves battery capacity and should be repeated once every 2 to 3 months to ensure optimum performance.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Grating, Shredding and Slicing
NOTE: Before initial use, be sure the batteries have been
charged for no less than 24 hours
1. Ensure that your multi-grater has been appropriately assembled, with the hopper attached to the main body and the food pusher attached to the handle.
2. Lift the handle from the main body to prevent accidentally activating the unit while attaching accessories. The multi­grater is designed with a safety interlock that prevents the unit from turning on when the handle is in the open posi­tion.
3. Insert the desired processing drum into the hopper. Refer to the section Tips for Using Your Cordless Rechargeable Multi-Grater on page 7 and for suggested uses for each drum.
4. Place the drum cover onto the side of the hopper to secure the drum in place.
5. Place your chosen food into the hopper and lower the han­dle, being sure that the piece inserted is sized appropriate­ly. If the piece of food is too large, it may prevent the unit’s handle from lowering far enough to initiate power.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury to persons, and /or damage to the unit, keep hands, hair, clothing and any utensils away from the appliance during operation. Never touch the hopper or drums during operation.

This warranty does not cover any damage caused by accident, misuse, shipment or other ordinary household use.
This warranty excludes all incidental or consequential damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of these damages, so these exclusions may not apply to you.
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY:
California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents have the option of returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store that sells Cuisinart of the same type.
The retail store shall then, at its discretion, either repair the product, refer the consumer to an independent repair facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the amount directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product. If the above two options do not result in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility if service or repair can be economically accomplished. Cuisinart and not the consumer will be responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair, replacement, or refund for nonconforming products under warranty.
California residents may also, according to their preference, return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary, replacement, by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-726-0190.
Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and shipping and handling for such products under warranty.
