Cleaning and maintaining the Chef'sChoice 615A Electric Meat Slicer is essential for its longevity and optimal performance. Here are the steps to clean and maintain the slicer, as outlined in the user guide:

1. Unplug the slicer cord from the outlet before cleaning.
2. Clean the slicer parts in contact with food, such as the food carriage, with a soft cloth or sponge and a mild soap or spray cleaner. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use steel wool or scouring powder on any part of the slicer.
3. Do not immerse the slicer in water or wash any part of it in the dishwasher.
4. To remove the food carriage, set the thickness control xxxx to 0 and slide the carriage control button to the "Remove" position. Clean the carriage guide and lubricate lightly with a few drops of acid-free light household oil, such as sewing machine oil.
5. To remove the cutting blade, insert a coin in the slot of the blade fastening xxxx and turn the xxxx clockwise until the blade retaining xxxx is fully removed. Carefully lift the blade off. Clean the cutting blade and the motor housing behind it with a clean damp cloth. Lubricate the blade support posts and the drive gear with Vaseline before replacing the blade.
6. The thickness guide plate can be removed for cleaning. To remove it, turn the thickness control xxxx counterclockwise to the "PLATE RELEASE" position. Pull the thickness guide plate off the slicer. After cleaning, lightly lubricate the two steel rods with Vaseline before reattaching the guide plate.
7. Clean the rubber feet with a grease-removing cleaner, such as alcohol.
8. The slice deflector can be removed for cleaning. Always remove the blade and thickness control plate before removing the deflector. Grasp the blade deflector with thumb and forefinger and pull it out. Reinstall before installing the blade or thickness control plate.
9. After cleaning, make sure to dry all parts thoroughly before reassembling the slicer.
10. It is recommended to clean the slicer at least four times each hour to avoid the development of disease-causing microorganisms.

By following these cleaning and maintenance instructions, you can ensure that your Chef'sChoice 615A Electric Meat Slicer remains in optimal condition for years to come.
