For as long as the plug is inserted in the wall socket the appliance itself is under electrical power. [. . . ] · 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. -7- If you have selected the setting "Knife with smooth edge" q: · Always sharpen knives with a smooth edge on both sides ­ for this, left and right side sharpening guides 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.
