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 multi-
grater is designed with a safety interlock that prevents the
unit from turning on when the handle is in the open posi-
tion.
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 han-
dle, being sure that the piece inserted is sized appropriate-
ly. 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.
