Sources of hazards WARNING The rotating blade can cut off body parts. Your ngers, especially the thumbs, are endangered. For this reason, never reach into the space between the stop plate and the holder for the material to be sliced as long as the stop plate is not com- pletely closed, i.e., is placed below "0". Child-proof safety catch You can push the carriage in front of the blade and press in the car- riage lock (child-proof safety catch) to secure the blade (the stop plate must be closed, i.e. be positioned under "0"). The carriage ts snug- ly. Cutting with the quick-ac- tion switch Place the items to be sliced on the carriage. Set the desired slicing thickness. Press the items to be sliced slightly against the stop plate and uniformly guide the car- riage against the blade. Use your thumb to press the quick-action switch - that switches on the motor. Press your thumb against the quick-action switch while slic- ing. As soon as you remove your thumb from the quick-action switch the motor switches off. Cutting with the continu- ous operation switch Use the continuous operation switch to slice large quantities. Place the items to be sliced on the carriage. Set the desired slicing thickness. Press the items to be sliced slightly against the stop plate and uniformly guide the car- riage against the blade. Turn the continuous operation switch clockwise up the limit stop (1/4 turn). Turn the continuous operation switch back to turn off the unit. Let the motor cool off after us- ing continuously for approx. 9.5 minutes. important! ► Soft items to be sliced (e.g., cheese or ham) can be sliced best when cool. ► Soft items can be sliced better when you push them slowly forward. ► When slicing cucumbers or carrots, it is advantageous if they are cut to a uniform length beforehand and then fed in with the food holder.Universal Slicer Master Classic C 6 / Classic C 6

30° tilt The tilt function is especially use- ful when slicing bread, dry sausage and vegetables. The tilt function takes advantage of the natural gravity of the items to be sliced while feeding. To tilt the unit, proceed as below: Press the lock button. The unit is unlatched. Pull the unit up powerfully with the tilting lever until you hear it latch. The unit is only secured if you hear it latch. You can now continue as de- scribed under "Slicing". After completing the slicing process, swivel the unit back. Turn the tilting lever down. The arresting bolt latches in by pressing on the rear part of the prole. GENIO carriage The GENIO carriage uses its spring- loaded carriage support to keep the items to be sliced in the start position. It continuously adapts to the size and weight of the items to be sliced, bringing them from the hard anodized aluminium slic- ing support into the ideal position. That makes additional xation as used in conventional carriages un- necessary while at the same time absolutely precluding the food from slipping or rolling off. Re- gardless of what is to be sliced, the GENIO carriage completely rede- nes slicing thanks to its enormous exibility, great operating comfort and ergonomic handling together with new high standards for safety, simplicity and speed. The unique spring mechanism keeps the GENIO carriage adapted to the particularities of the items to be sliced. They cannot roll off and they can always be ideally and ef- fortlessly guided to the blade. If you happen to want to slice heavy items (such as bread or ham), you can lock the slicing support. Press the arresting bolt and then press down the slicing support. Re- lease the bolt again. To unlatch, press the bolt; the slic- ing support springs up.Universal Slicer Classic C 6 / Classic C 6 © Gebr. Graef & Co. KG

Food holder When the items to be sliced are shorter and 10 cm so it is no long- er possible to correctly hold onto them, the food holder must be used. Place the food rests or the small items for slicing on the carriage. Set the food holder on the rear of the carriage and put the food holder onto the items to be sliced. Proceed as above as described in "Slicing". important! ► The food holder lets you slice small items such as mushrooms and tomatoes. ► The unit must not be used with- out the food holder unless the size and shape of the items to be sliced do not permit its use. Cleaning and Care This chapter provides you with im- portant information on cleaning and caring for the unit. Safety instructions CAUTION Follow the safety instructions below before you start cleaning the unit: ► Make sure the unit is switched off and not connected to the mains supply. ► Check to make sure the limit stop is closed (cutter blade is covered). ► Do not use any aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents and do not use any solvents. ► Do not scratch off stubborn soil- ing with hard objects. ► Do not wash in the unit in water or immerse it into water. Cleaning Clean the exterior of the unit with a soft, moist damp cloth. If heavy soiled, a mild detergent can be used. Blade removal Please occasionally unscrew the blade and clean the interior of the unit. Especially, when "juicy" slic- ing items (tomatoes, fruit, roasts, etc.) were sliced. Handle the blade with great care! WARNING ► CAUTION: sharp blade.Universal Slicer Master Classic C 6 / Classic C 6

To do that, pull out the carriage latch on the right side of the car- riage. Pull the carriage towards the back and remove it. You can now take apart the GENIO carriage for better clean- ing. Remove the slicing support by placing it vertically and pulling it out to the top. You can now also pull off the at spring. Clean all parts with a moist cloth or under running water. important! ► Do not clean the slicing support in a dishwasher!
