Important safety instructions
Unpack the appliance completely and
z
remove any protective foils etc.
Before the appliance is used, the main body 
z
as well as any attachment fi tted should 
be checked thoroughly for any defects. 
Should the appliance, for instance, have 
been dropped onto a hard surface, it must 
not be used any longer: even invisible 
damage may have adverse eff ects on the 
operational safety of the appliance.
Th
e power cord should be regularly
z
examined for any signs of damage. In the 
event of such damage being found, the 
appliance must no longer be used. 
Do not operate the appliance if excessive 
z
force has been used to pull the power 
cord. Damage cannot always be detected 
from the outside; the entire unit should 
therefore be checked by a qualifi ed 
technician before it is used again.
Th
is appliance is not intended for use
z
by any person (including children) with 
reduced physical, sensory or mental 
capabilities, or lacking experience and 
knowledge, unless they have been given 
supervision or instruction concerning 
the use of the appliance by a person 
responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure 
z
that they do not play with the appliance.
Caution:
z
keep any packaging materials
well away from children, as they are 
a potential source of danger e.g. from 
suff ocation.
Do not allow the slicer to come into 
z
contact with open fl ames or any hot 
surface such as hotplates.
Do not operate the slicer if 
z
the unit or its power cord show any
-
signs of damage,
the appliance has been dropped on to a 
-
hard surface, perhaps causing internal 
damage,
the sliding tray, stop plate or base plate 
-
have not been correctly fi tted.
For safety reasons, always bring the stop
z
plate back to its rest (zero) position aft er 
use, so that it is fl ush with the blade.
We strongly recommend that the 
z
appliance is only used with the sliding tray 
and end-piece holder properly installed 
and in position. Exceptions may be made 
only if required by the size or shape of the 
food to be sliced.
Always remove the plug from the wall 
z
socket
aft er use,

in case of any malfunction,
