To set up your Chef's Choice 702 Sharpener, place it on a stable, flat surface. Plug in the device to a suitable power outlet. Ensure that the sharpening slots are clean and ready for use before inserting any knives.
Insert the knife into the left slot of the sharpening stage, making sure the blade is fully inserted. Pull the knife towards you with a steady, even pressure. Repeat the process in the right slot, alternating sides for even sharpening.
Unplug the sharpener and remove any metal shavings from the sharpening slots using a dry, soft brush. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth if necessary. Do not immerse the sharpener in water or use abrasive cleaners.
Check to ensure the power cord is securely plugged into the outlet and that the outlet is functioning. Verify that there is no blockage in the sharpening slots. If the problem persists, consult the user manual or contact customer service.
The Chef's Choice 702 is designed primarily for straight-edged knives. For serrated knives, it is recommended to use a sharpener specifically designed for serrated edges to avoid damage.
The frequency of sharpening depends on usage. For regular home use, sharpening every few months should suffice. For professional use, more frequent sharpening may be necessary. Always monitor the knife's performance and sharpen as needed.
The Chef's Choice 702 is specifically designed for kitchen knives and is not suitable for sharpening scissors. Using it on scissors may damage both the sharpener and the scissors.
Ensure that you are applying consistent pressure while pulling the knife through the slots. Make sure to alternate sides evenly. If uneven sharpening persists, check the alignment of the sharpening slots or consult the manual for adjustments.
The Chef's Choice 702 is designed to automatically set the correct angle for sharpening. Simply insert the knife as directed and follow the instructions for optimal results.
The warranty period for the Chef's Choice 702 Sharpener varies by region. Generally, it includes a limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Consult your product manual or retailer for specific warranty details.
