technician if the product requires servicing.

CLEANING
To keep your Food Slicer operating properly, clean after each use.
1.
Always unplug the appliance and let the Blade come to a
complete stop before cleaning.
2.
Adjust the Thickness Adjustment Knob to the minimum thickness
setting “O” before cleaning.
3.
Remove the Food Press, Feeder, and Food Tray and wash in
warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
4.
Remove the Blade by inserting a coin in the slot of the Blade-Locking
Knob and turning clockwise. Remove the Blade-Locking Knob. With
one hand on the back side of the Blade, gently push the Blade
forward and at the same time, grip the hole in the center of the
Blade from the front and lift off. The Blade is very sharp, use extreme
care when handling. DO NOT touch sharp edges.
5.
Remove the Adjustable Plate by turning the Thickness Adjustment
Knob counter clockwise until it is released.
6.
Wipe all surfaces with a damp cloth making sure to thoroughly
clean between the Base and Foldable Base Platform. Dry
completely with a soft cloth.
DO NOT use harsh or abrasive
cleansers or sharp metal objects to remove food as these could
damage the coating on the exterior surface.
7.
Wash the Blade and Adjustable Plate in warm, soapy water. Rinse
and dry thoroughly. Do not allow the Blade to soak in water.
Trying to locate the Blade under water is potentially dangerous.
8.
Reattach the Adjustment Plate in reverse order of step 5.
9.
We suggest that you wash, rinse, dry and reinstall the Blade
immediately. Reinstall the Blade in reverse order of Step 4 (See
figure 7). Make sure the Blade-Locking Knob is properly engaged
and tightened. Fold the Base Platform up and slide the Base
Platform Locks to the lock positions.
