Operation
Short-term operation
The appliance has been designed for short-
term operation only, i.e. the slicer should
not be operated continuously for more
than 10 minutes. Switch it off afterwards
and allow the motor to cool down before
switching on again
Positioning the slicer
∙ Position the slicer on a flat, stable
surface.
∙ Before the appliance is connected to the
mains, ensure that the On/Off switch is
in the Off-position.
Slicing
∙ Use the thickness selection knob to
adjust the desired thickness of the
slices.
∙ Place the food to be sliced onto the
sliding tray and press it against the stop
plate.
∙ Fit the safety holder, with the studded
side facing the blade, onto the sliding
tray.
∙ Switch the appliance on and move the
sliding tray towards the rotating blade.
At the same time, lightly press the end-
piece holder with the food towards the
blade.
∙ The end-piece holder ensures safe
handling of the food while slicing.
∙ When removing the sliced food, keep
fingers and hands well away from the
blade, which is extremely sharp.
∙ Always switch the slicer off after use.
∙ For safety reasons, always bring the
12
stop plate back to its rest position after
use so that it is flush with the blade.
Practical hints
∙ When cutting a loaf of bread where the
crust is thicker or harder on one side, it
should be placed against the blade in
such a way that the firm side faces the
blade.
∙ When cutting ham, ensure that the fatty
side is facing upwards.
Cleaning and care
General
∙ To prevent perishable food particles
from collecting in the slicer, clean it
thoroughly after use.
∙ Always remove the plug from the wall
socket before cleaning the slicer.
∙ Wait until the motor has come to a
complete standstill. Bring the stop plate
to its rest position so that the blade does
not protrude.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the appliance with water and do
not immerse it in liquid of any kind.
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
∙ The sliding tray can be folded out
for easy access when cleaning the
appliance.
∙ To clean the sliding tray, a damp, lint-
free cloth and a mild detergent should
be used.
∙ If necessary, the housing may be wiped
with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
∙ The safety holder can be cleaned using
hot water and a mild detergent (do not
