Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper care will extend the life of your peeler and maintain its performance.

• Hand Wash Only: To preserve the sharpness of the blade and the integrity of the handle, wash the peeler by hand with warm, soapy water immediately after each use.
• Rinse Thoroughly: Ensure all food particles and soap residue are rinsed off.
• Dry Immediately: Dry the peeler completely with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and potential corrosion of the blade.
• Storage: Store the peeler in a drawer or on a utensil rack where the blade is protected and cannot cause accidental injury.

Troubleshooting

Peeler is not peeling effectively:

• Check Blade Condition: Ensure the blade is clean and free of debris. A dull blade can reduce effectiveness. While the blade is durable, prolonged heavy use may eventually affect its sharpness.
• Adjust Pressure and Angle: Experiment with different angles and pressure. The swivel blade is designed to glide smoothly, but some produce may require a slightly different approach.
• Inspect for Damage: If the blade appears bent or damaged, discontinue use and consider replacement.
