Stack food into the food chamber upright for short slices or horizontally for
longer slices (Fig. F).
4. Begin slicing or shredding. Use the slicer/shredder power switch to turn the unit
on and off. Push food through the food chamber using an even pressure on the
food guide.
5. The sliced or shredded food will be discharged from the open end of the slicing/
shredding chute, allowing you to easily shoot toppings right into your mixing
bowl or onto your salad, pizza, or dessert so there are no extra bowls to clean.
See the Suggested Uses on page 4 for great ideas for slicing and shredding.
Helpful Hints
All food slices and shreds better when it is fresh and firm.
Semi-soft cheeses should be refrigerated overnight or placed in the freezer for approximately 30 minutes before shredding. Hard
cheeses should be at room temperature. All unprocessed cheeses can be shredded successfully with this unit. It is not recommended
that you use soft or processed cheese as it may clog the unit.
Use light pressure on the food guide for thinner slices and shreds, and firm pressure for thicker slices and shreds.
Certain soft fruits such as strawberries and kiwi should be firm not overripe to slice. These types of fruits can also be placed in a
freezer for a few minutes before slicing.
Some foods can be double processed; for instance, you can shred carrots and run them through again for grated carrots. Cheese can
be shredded twice for grated cheese.
Place the food upright in the food chamber until it is full and apply pressure evenly with the food guide. Failure to properly load the
food chamber or to apply even pressure may result in the food falling over in the food chamber. This will result in uneven slices.
It is normal for bits of food to remain on top of the slicing/shredding cone after you have completed slicing or shredding.
The unit is not designed to shred onions or oranges, slice cheese or chocolate, or process meats and tomatoes.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the unit, do not attempt to slice foods that are too hard to be cut with an ordinary knife. This
slicer/shredder was not designed to chop ice or grind coffee beans. You may damage the unit.
Plastic parts may become stained after processing certain foods such as carrots. Should the unit become stained, pour a small amount
of cooking oil on a paper towel and wipe the stained area. For best results, do this as soon as a stain is noticed.
