ZWILLING 11.5-inch Magnetic Knife Bar Instruction Manual

1. Introducció

This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the safe and effective use of your ZWILLING 11.5-inch Magnetic Knife Bar. Designed for secure and accessible knife storage, this aluminum bar helps organize your kitchen tools efficiently while keeping blades sharp and protected.

2. Informació de seguretat

• Keep the magnetic knife bar and all attached knives out of reach of children.
• Always exercise caution when handling sharp objects.

• When removing knives, grasp the handle firmly and twist the handle away from the bar so the blade edge turns away from the magnetic surface, then pull the knife away. This minimizes friction and protects the blade from dulling.
• Ensure the magnetic bar is securely mounted to a stable surface before placing any items on it.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

Using your magnetic knife bar is simple and efficient:

• Attaching Knives: Hold the knife by the handle. Gently bring the spine (the dull back edge) of the blade into contact with the magnetic bar. Once the spine is secure, roll the blade flat against the bar. This method prevents the blade edge from hitting the bar directly, which can cause dulling.
• Removing Knives: Grasp the knife handle firmly. Twist the handle so the blade edge turns away from the bar, then pull the knife away. This minimizes friction and protects the blade.
• Utensil Storage: The magnetic bar is also suitable for storing other metallic kitchen utensils such as kitchen shears, microplane zesters, or other magnetic tools.

• Eviteu els netejadors durs: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the surface of the magnetic bar.
• Cura de la fulla: Always ensure your knives are clean and completely dry before placing them on the magnetic bar to prevent rust, corrosion, or transfer of food particles.

7. Solució De Problemes

• Knives Not Holding Firmly:
  • Ensure the knife blade is made of a ferromagnetic material. Some stainless steel alloys may have weaker magnetic attraction.
  • Verify that the magnetic bar is securely mounted to the wall and not loose. A loose bar can affect magnetic stability.
  • Clean the magnetic surface of the bar and the knife blades to remove any grease, oil, or debris that might reduce magnetic contact.
• Bar Appears Loose on Wall:
  • Check all mounting screws and tighten them if necessary.
  • If wall anchors were used, ensure they are properly installed and not stripped. If they are, consider relocating the bar or using new anchors in a different spot.
