Safety instructions

To avoid potentially fatal electric shocks:

• Protect the appliance against moisture. Use it only in dry rooms, do not use it outdoors or in damp areas.
• Ensure that the power cable cannot be damaged when the appliance is in use, particularly not by sharpened knife or scissor blades.
• In order to avoid potentially fatal risks, should the power cable and/or the plug become damaged, arrange for it/them to be replaced by Customer Services before continuing to use the appliance.
• NEVER open any housing components, other than those specified herein.
• After use or during extended absences, ALWAYS remove the plug from the power socket. For as long as the plug is inserted in the wall socket the appliance itself is under electrical power.
• Ensure that the power plug is at all times easily accessible, so that it can be quickly and easily removed in the event of potential danger or risk.

To avoid the risks of accidents and personal injuries:

• Always check to ensure that the appliance is in a serviceable condition before taking it into use. If there is recognisable damage to the appliance it may not be used. Arrange for it to be safety-checked by Customers Services before using it again.
• Take steps to ensure that hair, loose clothing and parts of the body do not come into contact with the revolving grindstone ⑤.
• Wear protective gloves so as to avoid injury from sharp blades, or, if you are operating the knife sharpener with the function cap 6 removed.
• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with restricted physical, physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiencies in experience and/or knowledge unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or receive from this person instruction in how the appliance is to be used. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Unpacking

• Check that all items listed are available and that they show no signs of visible damage.
• Remove all parts from the packaging and all packaging remnants from the items.
• Retain the packaging, either for storing the appliance or for reuse in the event of posting it to Customer Services for repair.

• Before the first usage thoroughly clean all component parts as described in the section "Cleaning and care".

• Place the appliance on a stable and slip-free surface.

• Then insert the plug into the power socket.

Adjustment

• To select the required sharpening function ① ② ③, turn the function cap ⑥ until the cap perceptibly engages.
• In the position ② "Knife with serrated edge" the relevant symbol points to the grinder opening - however, the cap engages at that point.
• Hold the switch ⑧ pressed down. The grindstone ⑤ revolves continuously until the switch ⑧ is released.

Sharpening

• First present the blade when the grindstone 5 is revolving.
• Always draw the knife or scissors back, from the blade stop, in an even movement, not in a repetitive back and forth movement - otherwise the result will be an uneven sharpening.
• Do not apply any great pressure and always sharpen only clean blades, so as to avoid a premature wearing-out of the grindstone.
• Always sharpen knives and scissors so that the blade is at an acute angle to the grindstone (as alluded to in the shape of the opening). Sharpening at the false angle can destroy any blade.
• After sharpening, remove any possible grinding remnants that may be on the blade with a moist cloth.

If you have selected the setting "Knife with smooth edge" 1:

• Always sharpen knives with a smooth edge on both sides - for this, left and right side sharpening guides 1 are available.
• In the left guide hold the knife inclined to the left, and in the right guide inclined to the right, whilst drawing the blade through.

If you have selected the setting "Knife with serrated edge" 2:

• Sharpen these only on the side with the serration - the draw through direction for the knife is dependant on which side of the blade this is on.
• In general, serrated blades can only be sharpened up to a point. Knifes with a fine sawtoothing (e.g. table knives) do not require sharpening.

If you have selected the setting "Scissor sharpening" 3:

• Sharpen both scissor blades one after the other. For this, open the scissors out and draw both blades, one after the other, through the guide (see fold-out page).

Should you wish to grind a slot-screwdriver 4 flat:

• This is possible in every position of the function cap ⑥. Appropriate to its width, insert the screwdriver through one of the two grinding openings ④ on the front of the function cap (see fold-out side). The end face of the screwdriver will now be ground level and flat.

Certain edges can possibly be more easily sharpened directly on the grindstone , without the function cap: For these cases, the function cap is removable:

• Turn the function cap ⑥ until the arrow is at the top. You can now take off the function cap.
• To replace the function cap ⑥, hold it so that the arrow is once again at the top. You can now push the cap on and secure it by turning it to the left or right.

To avoid risks of personal injury and damage:

• Before carrying out any maintenance work, first remove the plug from the wall socket.
• NEVER submerse the appliance in water or other liquids! These could damage the appliance. Additionally, there is a potentially fatal risk of electric shock should moisture come into contact with electrical components.

Cleaning the appliance:

• Turn the function cap ⑥, until the arrow is at the top. You can now remove the function cap and clean the area around the grindstone ⑤ with a dry brush.
• Dismantle the abrade collector ⑦ and clean it with a brush and, if necessary, a lightly moistened cloth.
• Clean the remaining parts of the appliance also with a lightly moistened cloth, not with abrasive or aggressive detergents. They can damage the surfaces.
• To replace the function cap 6, hold it so that the arrow is once again at the top. You can now push the cap on and secure it by turning it to the left or right. To conclude, reassemble the abrade collector 7 into the appliance.

Maintenance

• The appliance is maintenance-free. No form of maintenance, either on or in the appliance, is intended for execution by the user. In the event of malfunction or apparent damage, make contact with Customer Services.
• For storage, wrap the power cable around the appliance housing.

Do not dispose of the appliance in your normal domestic waste.

Dispose of the appliance through an approved disposal centre or at your community waste facility. This device is subject to the European Guidelines 2002/96/EC. Observe the currently applicable regulations. In case of doubt, please contact your waste disposal centre.

Dispose of all packaging materials in an environmentally friendly manner.
