Frequently Asked Questions - FGP204 KENWOOD

Why won't my spiralizer turn on?

Check that the appliance is plugged in and that the lid is locked correctly. The spiralizer will not operate if the lid is not properly aligned and locked.

How do I attach the cutting cone?

Insert the cone holder into the power unit. Fit the desired cutting cone onto the holder, ensuring it sits flush. Then fit the lid and turn clockwise until the ▼ aligns with the symbol.

What types of food can I spiralize?

Use firm fruits and vegetables without stones, seeds, or hollow centres. Examples include carrots, courgettes, beetroot, apples, pears, sweet potatoes, and broccoli stems. Avoid soft, juicy, or overripe foods.

Why am I getting half-moon shapes instead of spirals?

This usually happens if the food is too narrow (less than 5 cm diameter) or if the food rotates in the feed tube. Ensure the food is larger than the end of the pusher and hold it steady.

How do I clean the spiralizer?

Always switch off and unplug before cleaning. Handle the blades carefully as they are sharp. Wash removable parts by hand or in the dishwasher. Wipe the power unit with a damp cloth; do not immerse in water.

Can I wash the parts in the dishwasher?

Yes, the removable parts (cone holder, cones, lid, pusher, container) are dishwasher safe. However, hand washing is recommended to prolong the life of the plastic.

What should I do if the lid will not fit?

Ensure the cone holder and cutting cone are correctly positioned. The lid will not fit if these are not aligned. Also check that the food is not too large for the feed tube.

Why are my spiralized foods turning brown quickly?

Some foods like apples, pears, and potatoes oxidize quickly. Use immediately after spiralizing or store in water. Adding lemon juice to fruits helps prevent browning.

Can I use the spiralizer for soft fruits like bananas?

No, soft, juicy, or overripe foods will not spiralize properly and will fall apart. Stick to firm, dense vegetables and fruits.

How do I store the cutting cones?

After cleaning and drying, store the cones inside the container for safe keeping. This also helps protect the sharp blades.

hints & tips

• Use spiralized vegetables to replace pasta and noodles.
• Use firm fruits and vegetables without stones, seeds or hollow centres.
• Do not use soft, juicy or overripe foods as they will fall apart when spiralized.

• Many important vitamins and nutrients are found in the skin of fruit and vegetables, so only remove if inedible.

• Select vegetables that are as straight as possible.

• Cut the end of the food to create a flat surface to ensure it can be attached to the end of the pusher. Uneven ends will make it difficult to secure to the end of the pusher causing poor results.
• Ensure that the diameter of the food is more than 5 cm so that it can be attached securely to the end of the pusher.
• You will be left with a cone shaped end pieces at the end of spiralizing. These pieces can be sliced and used.
• Lightly steam, blanch, boil or stir fry the spiralized food.
