4. Release the TriggerGuard™ Lock by sliding
it toward the blade (D). Press the “On”
Switch and guide the Knife Blades down
through the food. Use a carving fork
to hold the food, if necessary.
CAUTION: NEVER place your hand over
the Blade to support it while operating
this knife. The Blades are designed to
slide back and forth for cutting.
5. For models with the shorter Utility Blade, you
may insert and remove the Blade in the same
manner as the long Blade. The Utility Blade works well on pineapple,
pepperoni, small bread loaves, potatoes,
and other small fruits and vegetables.
REMOVING BLADES
1. To remove the Blades, the
TriggerGuard™ Lock must be
covering the “On” Switch and the
cord must be unplugged. Press
the Blade Release Buttons on both
sides of the Handle. Grasp the
Blades by the Finger Grips with the
cutting edge facing AWAY from your
hand and pull out away from the
Handle. (See C) Instructions also appear
on the underside of the Handle.
Care & Cleaning

1. Before cleaning any part of the Electric Knife, engage the TriggerGuard™
Lock, unplug the cord, and remove the Blades.
2. Knife Blades may be washed in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher.
Dry all parts thoroughly before next use.

any abrasive cleanser or material to clean any part of the Knife as it may
harm the finish. Do not put the Knife Handle in water.
