When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed including the following:
1. Read all instructions. Every user should read this manual.
2. To protect against electrical hazards, do not immerse the Chef’sChoice
® motor drive
section in water or other liquid.
3. Make sure only clean knife blades are inserted in the Chef’sChoice ® Model 2000.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts and
before cleaning.
5. Avoid contacting moving parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance
malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner.
U.S. customers: You can return your sharpener to EdgeCraft’s factory for service where
the cost of repair or electrical or mechanical adjustment can be estimated. When the
electrical cord on this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the Chef’sChoice ®
distributor or other qualified service to avoid the danger of electrical shock.
Outside U.S.: Please return your sharpener to your local distributor where the cost of
repair or electrical or mechanical adjustment can be estimated. If the supply cord of
this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by a repair facility appointed by
the manufacturer because special tools are required. Please consult your local
Chef’sChoice ® distributor.
7. CAUTION! “This appliance may be fitted with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in anyway.”
8. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by EdgeCraft Corporation may cause
fire, electric shock or injury.

rated knives), pocket knives and most sports knives. Do not attempt to sharpen “parrot
beak” knives, scissors, ax blades or any blade that does not fit freely in the slots.
10. Do not let the cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
