Operation

SLICING

Specic Safety Advice for Slicing and for Handling the Slicer

1. Never touch the blade while the slicer is operating because it will cause injury!

2. Always use the piece holder. Press the piece of food to be sliced forward using the piece holder.

3. Use the slicer only for slicing normal household foods and not for other purposes. Do not use the slicer for
slicing frozen foods, bones, dehydrated foods with large seeds, or for slicing packaged foods.

4. Never use the slicer for more than 10 minutes continuously.

5. The cutting blade 3 continues to rotate after the slicer has been switched off.

6. For reasons of safety, the slice thickness must be returned to the “0” setting after use.

SELECT MODE OF OPERATION

The two operating modes can be switched on and off with the switch. The vario-switch provides innite control
of the speed and rotation of the blade. Continuous operation mode/max runs 10 minutes (switch “T’ in position
I). Set the switch to “I” and the cutting blade runs without having to hold the switch. To stop running continuous
mode move the switch to the “0” position and wait until the cutting blade comes to a complete standstill.
Intermittent operation mode (switch “T’ in position “P”): Set the switch to “P” and the cutting blade will continue
to run as long as the switch is held in this position. Stopping intermittent operation: Release the switch and wait
until the cutting blade comes to a complete standstill.

SETTING THE SLICE THICKNESS

The slice thickness can be set to between 0 and approx. 22mm. Set the required slice thickness using the
knob “1”. The settings on the scale does not correspond with the slice thickness. For safety reasons, the blade
is covered during setting “0”. Place the food to be sliced on to the food carriage. If necessary, lightly press
the food to be sliced with the food holder plate against the food support plate. Switch the device on and then
press the food to be sliced forward guiding it along the cutting blade. After using the slicer, always set the
food support plate to the “0” setting so that the sharp blade is covered. The cutting blade is ideally suitable
for cutting wafer-thin slices of cold cuts. To safeguard your ngers, always use the food carriage and the food
holder plate when possible.
