How to use

Place the slicer on a stable, level surface and ensure the unit is unplugged while assembling or cleaning. Secure the product to the carriage and set the desired slice thickness using the control knob. Plug in the appliance, switch it on, and guide the food across the blade using the carriage or food pusher, keeping hands clear of the cutting area. For safety, wait until the blade comes to a complete stop before removing leftovers or performing adjustments. After use, unplug the unit and follow the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions for removable parts and blade cover.

Usage recommendations

Use firm, chilled meats and semi-hard cheeses for clean, even slices; avoid slicing very soft or sticky items without proper refrigeration. Regularly inspect and clean the detachable parts to maintain hygiene and slicing performance. When slicing bread, use gentle pressure to prevent crushing; adjust thickness to suit the type of bread.
