i purchased this mandolin for my 89 year old "sharp" mom. she loves it. the mandolin does come with directions.

Yes, there were directions, but they were difficult to follow because the unit was so flimsy and poorly designed.

Instructions come with the unit. However, if you are asking about slicing with it, videos seem to make things easier. Three websites you may find helpful are chef Tina Jo's demo of the safety features on the Kitchenaid mandoline --[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FxY828-iwk] and two other websites which demonstrate a mandoline in use -- [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EegNFhQJnuQ] and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gebfG75Iqxs]. Some mandolines come with more attachments and features but all basically function in the same manner. All mandolines are super sharp and require careful use. Happy cooking!

Mine also arrived without directions, never figured how it works. Meant to return it but still use it as a paperweight. I would love to hear how/if it works.

I gave up trying to use this thing. I'm sorry I bought it. The directions don't help.

No there were no directions with mine or the one I ordered for my son. It is trial and error. Just best thing to do is look at the pictures and try to figure it out the best way you can. That is what I had to do. Just try to maintain patience while doing so. This product will easily frustrate you but if you play with it for awhile you can figure it out. Sorry! that's the best answer I have for you.

There are no directions. It's pretty self explanatory...well at least the one I have is. It should work right out of the box or you may have a pull tab where the battery is to activate your batteries. After that there's just a button on the bottom that turns it on. If you keep pressing the button, it will change colors. It will keep cycling through the colors if you keep pressing the button. I haven't found a way to keep it on one color the whole time.

Sorry I sent it as a gift. I think you could probably google instructions. Good luck :)

I really can't say honestly, I don't use it that way, and I don't know where my manual is. (Already) Sorry I can't be of help, but the online manual 'should be' on their site somewhere if you want to check that out.

You cannot as far as I know. It comes with a small set of instructions and that's it.

Honestly I don't really know how to use the entire thing because the one I'm selling is unused. You should try to youtube it.

I dont really know right now. I haven't tried doing it yet. The website might explain - or the booklet that came with it, which was very helpful for other things.nancyb
