Slicing Procedure:

1. Place the slicer on a stable, flat surface. Ensure the suction cups are engaged.
2. Adjust the thickness dial and shape knobs to your desired setting.
3. Place the vegetable into the food feeder. For smaller items, use the food pusher to guide them.
4. Press down on the handle to push the vegetable through the blades. The hidden blade design ensures your fingers never touch the cutting surface, enhancing safety.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Proper cleaning ensures the longevity and hygiene of your mandoline slicer.

Troubleshooting

• Difficulty Cleaning Nooks: While the included brush is effective for most areas, some users report small food particles getting stuck in hard-to-reach plastic grooves. For stubborn residues, try soaking the unit in warm, soapy water before brushing, or use a thin, stiff brush.
• Blade Sharpness: The blade is integrated and not designed to be removed or sharpened by the user. If the blade's performance significantly degrades over time, consider contacting customer support for assistance.
• Vegetables Not Fitting: The slicer is designed for a wide range of vegetables. If a vegetable is too large for the feeder, it may need to be cut into smaller, manageable pieces before processing.
