Frequently Asked Questions - AS 8 TEAM

How to assemble the carriage of the AS 8 TEAM slicer?

The carriage is delivered as a kit (3 parts). To assemble, insert the tab under edge A of the carriage into the slot of edge B of the tray, then slide the tab under the carriage into the slot at the end of the tray. Ensure the arrows align.

How to use the slicer safely?

Never use the appliance unattended. To start, press the start/stop button and the child safety button simultaneously. Always use the carriage to guide food and do not touch the blade while operating.

What slice thickness can I get?

The thickness is adjustable from 0 to 15 mm using the rotating knob. Do not exceed the 15 mm mark to ensure protection of the circular knife.

Can you cut frozen foods with this slicer?

No, it is essential not to cut frozen foods. The slicer is designed for foods at room temperature such as boneless meat, cheese, bread, and cold cuts.

How to clean the AS 8 slicer?

Unplug the appliance. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For the blade, unscrew the locking screw counterclockwise, carefully remove it (it is very sharp), clean with soapy water, rinse, and reassemble by tightening clockwise. Never put the appliance in the dishwasher.

What to do if the power cord is damaged?

If the cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified competent service (manufacturer or importer after-sales service). Do not use the appliance until the cable is repaired.

Can I use the slicer without the carriage?

No, the carriage is a mandatory safety device. Never cut food with hands alone, always use the carriage and the support plate, except for very large pieces that do not fit, but with great care.

What is the maximum continuous use time?

The appliance should not run continuously for more than 10 minutes (check the rating plate). After this time, take a break of at least 10 minutes to avoid damaging the motor.

How to adjust slice thickness?

Turn the rotating knob (7) to set the desired thickness. The graduations go from 0 to 15 mm. Do not force beyond 15 mm to avoid removing the knife protection plate.

UK STYLE PLUG WIRING INSTRUCTIONS (IN THE UK ONLY)

This product must only be used from a 13 amp power socket. If a BS1363 approved 13 amp plug is used, it should be fitted with a 13 amp fuse. The wires on the power cord are colour coded:

blue = neutral, brown = live, green or green & yellow = earth.

The blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked N or coloured in black.

The brown wire must be connected to the terminal marked L or coloured in red.

The green (& yellow) wire must be connected to the terminal marked E or coloured in green (& yellow).

USING THE SLICER

• Clean all parts of the appliance before the first use.
• Make sure the appliance is steady and open the table (6).
• Put the platform (5) on top of the table: the platform triangle should be facing the triangle on the table. The platform should be secured in the table groove. Now add the pusher (4) and the protection of the thumb as described on the picture.
• Select the slicing thickness by turning the adjusting knob (7).
• Plug in the appliance. The slicer is now ready for use.
• Lay the food to be sliced between the blade (1) and the pusher.
• Push simultaneously the on/off button (2) and the safety lock (8) with your hand. The blade will start rotating. For safety reasons, the appliance only works if both buttons are pushed.
• Push the platform with the other hand to bring the food to the blade. As a safety measure, the platform cannot be moved easily. This means that the pressure has to be sufficiently strong in order to obtain regular slices.
• To avoid food sticking to the appliance, you can moisten the blade with cooking oil beforehand. This also allows you to slice more easily.
  Always use the pusher when slicing small parts and leftovers.
• Do not slice meat with bones, food with large seeds, rolled roast without removing the string, wrappers (i.e. aluminium foil), frozen food or any hard, inedible food parts.

CLEANING

• Before cleaning, always unplug the appliance.
• Wipe the inside and outside of the appliance with a paper towel or a soft and damp cloth. It should not be washed in a dishwasher.
• Do not clean the inside or outside with any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool as this will damage the finish.
• Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
  The blade can be taken off by turning the blade-locking knob (3). Caution: the blade is very sharp. Clean the blade with soapy water and give it a rinse. Then turn the knob clockwise to fasten it.
• Dry all parts well before storage.
