General Spiralizing

1. Prepare Produce: Wash the fruit or vegetable. For best results, trim both ends to create flat surfaces. For longer vegetables, cut them into manageable segments.
2. Secure Produce: Center the prepared produce onto the spikes of the turning handle. Ensure it is firmly seated.
3. Engage Blade: Position the produce against the selected blade. Apply gentle downward pressure on the turning handle.
4. Begin Spiralizing: Turn the handle clockwise while maintaining steady downward pressure. The spiralized food will fall into the collection container below.
5. Clear Container: If processing large quantities, periodically remove the container and empty its contents to prevent overflow.

Using Different Blades

The Spiral-Ultra includes four interchangeable blades for various cutting styles:

• Slicer Blade: For wide, flat cuts suitable for chips or garnishes.
• Fine Julienne Blade: Produces thin, spaghetti-like strands for vegetable noodles.
• Coarse Julienne Blade: Creates thicker strands, ideal for heartier vegetable pasta.
• Grater/Shredder Blade: For grating cheese, vegetables, or creating fine shreds.

Mandoline Slicing

To use the mandoline function, insert the desired slicing blade. Use the protective mandoline vegetable holder to safely guide produce across the blade, ensuring even slices and protecting your hands.

Údržba a čištění

Proper cleaning ensures the longevity and hygiene of your spiralizer:

• Vhodné do myčky: All components are dishwasher safe. Place them on the top rack for cleaning.
• Mytí rukou: For hand washing, rinse components under running water immediately after use. Use a brush to safely clean blade areas and remove any food residue.
• Sušení: Před uskladněním nechte všechny díly zcela vyschnout na vzduchu.
• Skladování: The unit is designed for compact storage, with all attachments fitting within the main unit and 4-cup container.

Odstraňování problémů

• Vegetables not spiralizing evenly: Ensure both ends of the vegetable are trimmed flat. For long or irregularly shaped vegetables, cut them into shorter, more uniform segments. Apply consistent downward pressure while turning the handle.
• Unit not stable on countertop: Verify that the suction cup feet and the countertop surface are clean and dry. Press down firmly on the unit to engage the suction cups.
• Staining on plastic components: Certain highly pigmented vegetables (e.g., carrots, sweet potatoes) may cause minor staining on white plastic parts. This is normal and does not affect performance. Prompt cleaning after use can help minimize staining.
• Difficulty with hard vegetables: For very hard vegetables like sweet potatoes, ensure they are properly centered and apply firm, steady pressure. If still difficult, consider pre-softening slightly (e.g., by blanching) or selecting a different blade.
