INSTRUCTIONS

Please read the following operational information before using the spiralizer.

Important Safeguards

Read and follow operating instructions and warnings to familiarize

yourself with the spiralizer before using. Review instructions and

warnings periodically to maintain awareness.

Before Using

Wash all parts of the spiralizer with hot, soapy water, rinse, and wipe

dry. Use caution when handling the cutting table where the blades are

located – the blades are sharp!

Assembly

1. Place the protective cover onto the stainless steel shaft. Screw the

handle clockwise onto the stainless steel shaft to tighten.

2. Insert the shaft into the hole of the protective cover.

3. Screw the food holder to the bottom of the stainless steel shaft so that the

teeth are pointed downward.

4. Set the cutting surface on the collection bowl (as shown in diagram) and

turn clockwise to lock into collection bowl.

Using The Food Spiralizer

1. Begin by cutting your fresh, raw food (vegetable/fruit) at least 1”

(2.5cm) in diameter and 1” to 3.5” (2.5-8.9cm) in length. Make sure

the top and bottom ends of your food pieces are cut straight and

flat so that they can be held firmly in place by the teeth on the

holder and the center pin on the cutting surface.

2. Move the Julienne blade dial from “Safe” position to the desired

thick or thin julienne (refer to Cutting Options on page 5). Turn the

Ribbon blade dial marked “Cut” out of safe mode, into the cut

mode, where the blade will be visible.

3. Position one of the flat ends of the food on the center pin of the

cutting surface. Apply enough pressure to stabilize the food item

on the center pin.

4. The center pin keeps your food in place while you adjust the shaft

and position the Cuisinart Food Spiralizer’s food holder so it is

centered over the food item. As you turn the protective cover

clockwise, the teeth of the holder will grip the food, holding it

securely. Turn clockwise until protective cover locks into place.

5. Your food is now securely held in place between the teeth of the

holder and the center pin on the cutting surface.

6. To start your Cuisinart Food Spiralizer, rotate the handle clockwise

while applying downward pressure with the palm of your hand.

WARNING

Please remember to set all blades to the SAFE position (no blades or

teeth will be visible on the cutting surface) before unlocking the

collection bowl to retrieve food or before cleaning the unit.

The Cuisinart Food Spiralizer is not recommended for harder foods,

e.g., butternut squash. Keep food spiralizer blades away from

children.

Cutting Options

Ribbon Slice (Figure 1) – Only the flat blade is being used. Adjust the Ribbon

blade dial to Cut. Turn the Julienne blade dial to the Safe position, so that no

julienne blade will be visible.

Thin Julienne (Figure 2) – Turn to the Ribbon blade to the cut position. Turn

the Julienne blade dial so that the thinly spaced blades (teeth) are visible.

Thick Julienne (Figure 3) – Turn the Ribbon blade to the cut position. Turn the

Julienne blade dial so that the widely spaced blades (teeth) are visible.
