  5. To remove, put the cutter top in the vertical position and pull upwards while holding down the cutter base with the other hand.

Using the blade inserts

  • Preparing food
    • Wash the food remove stems, cores, or pits, and peel if necessary.
    • The food must be cut into small enough pieces to fit the cutting area so that there is sufficient space between the food and the blade insert frame on all four sides.
    • Place the food on the cut side on the desired cutting surface.

CAUTION! Risk of cutting injuries.

  • The blades are extremely sharp. Always hold parts by the plastic and do not touch the blades with your hands or other body parts under any circumstances.
  • Only cut food by pressing down on the cutter top. Do not use your fingers to push food through the blade inserts under any circumstances.

ATTENTION!

  • If the cutter top does NOT descend fully in one stroke, then DO NOT apply any further force – this may damage the product.
  • If the food has lodged in the blades, remove it by turning over the blade insert (to the blunt side) and carefully pushing out the cuttings.
  • Do the same to remove food remnants from the blades and then use washing detergent and a brush.
  • The blade inserts may not be used to cut very hard food such as carrots, unpeeled squashes, or similar.
  • Cores and pits must be removed before processing and the food may need to be peeled.
  • Before using, read the ‘Assembly’ section. Only use the product if it has been assembled correctly.Genius-Nicer-Juliet-fig-1 \(3\)
  • Insert the desired blade insert. The insert must audibly lock into place. Please ensure that you do not touch the blades during use.
  • Always fit the blade insert so that the required cutting surface is in Position 1.

NOTE: For large pieces or those to be cut in an upright position, hold the food in place with your hand and press lightly on the cutter top to keep the food from slipping. If it is not easy to apply pressure to an ingredient, then it is NOT suitable for this method of cutting.

  • Place the food to be cut on the appropriate cutting surface. Push the cutter top down firmly using both hands in a single stroke. The food is pushed through the blades and automatically collected in the collecting container.
  • To empty the collecting container, simply lift the entire cutter lid (cutter top and base) on the closed side and remove it. Hold the collecting container with the other hand as you do so.
  • To remove the blade insert, open the cutter top and remove the blade insert carefully, using the grip recesses.

Using the XXL blade inserts

Genius-Nicer-Juliet-fig-1 \(6\)

  • Insert the larger (rectangular) detachable pin block into the cutter top. Between the two pin blocks there is no divider, but rather a single surface area like that of your XXL blade insert. Make sure that the pin block is not inserted backwards. Place the larger (rectangular) cleaning sieve onto the detachable pin block.
  • Insert the desired blade insert. The insert must audibly lock into place. Please ensure that you do not touch the blades during use. The rest of the process is exactly like cutting with the 2-in-1 blade inserts (see previous section).

Using the grating insert

Genius-Nicer-Juliet-fig-1 \(8\)

  • Place the required grating insert in the cutter base. The grating insert must click into place.
  • Carefully remove the protective cover and pass the food over the grater using rapid movements.

Tips and tricks

NOTE: The collecting container is not suitable for storing citrus fruits. This may result in alterations to the container’s surface. However, this will not affect its ability to function.

  • For storage, you can seal the collecting container with the practical fresh-keeping lid. The collecting container can therefore also be used to keep food fresh.
  • To dice food, lay the food flat on the cutting surface. For potato soup, for example, first cut the potatoes into slices. To dice, place several slices on top of one another on the blade. You can use the same method for cucumbers, courgettes, etc.
  • To cut into batons, for example, when making chips, place the potatoes upright on the blade one after another. Press down using the cutter top to keep them from moving around. You can cut delicious batons of cucumbers, apples, etc. for dips in this way. If it is not easy to apply pressure to an ingredient, then it is NOT suitable for this method of cutting.
  • Place the food on the cut side on the desired cutting surface.
  • Cutting made easy with the right technique: Place your stronger hand (left hand if you are left-handed, right hand if you are right-handed) on the outside of the cutter top. Place your weaker hand in the center of the cutter top. Then press down firmly in a single stroke.
  • Before starting, dip the blade inserts in water. Wet blades cut more easily and require less force. During cutting, the blades are kept moist by the moisture in the food that is being cut.

Assembly/Using

  • Feed the vegetables into the spiral insert and rotate clockwise, applying slight pressure.

Care and cleaning

CAUTION!

  • Risk of cutting injuries due to sharp blades!
  • Do not touch the blades with your hands. Always hold the inserts by the plastic.

ATTENTION! Clean the product immediately after use to avoid the build-up of germs or mold.

  • Dismantle the product before cleaning.
  • Do not use sharp or abrasive cleaning agents or cleaning pads.
  • Allow all parts to dry thoroughly before putting them away.
  • All parts without blades can be cleaned in the top basket of the dishwasher. Select an economy or standard program. Avoid high-temperature programs (such as sanitizing or pot/ pan cycles).
  • We recommend hand-washing any parts that contain blades (e.g. blade inserts, slicer inserts) to preserve quality and sharpness over the long term.
    • Note: Some types of fruit and vegetables can stain the plastic parts (e.g. beets). Frequent cleaning of the collecting container in a dishwasher can affect the material’s transparency. This is normal and not a cause for concern; it does not limit the functionality.

Cleaning the blade inserts

  • When you’re cleaning the product, never touch the side with the sharp blades.
  • If food residue gets stuck between the blades, turn the sharp side down and carefully remove them with a dishwashing brush.

Self-cleaning function

  • To clean the built-in pin block, press the ‘Push’ button on the top of the cutter top.
  • The built-in cleaning sieve is automatically pushed downwards and removes even small pieces of food residue from the pin block.
  • The lid should remain open during this process. If the self-cleaning process is launched when the cutter top is closed, there must not be any blade inserts in the frame.
