6. Make sure that the centrifuge bowl
sits properly on its base, so that
the gear on the bottom of the bowl
engages the gear in the base.
7. Make sure that the centrifuge bowl
doesn't sit too loosely on the base
and that it rotates evenly.
8. Place the lid (2) on the appliance
so that it covers both the fruit pulp
holder and the centrifuge bowl
unit. Make sure that the lid fits
tightly onto the base.
9. Turn the lock mechanism (5) to the
vertical position and make sure
that it engages the lid and locks it
fast. The lock mechanism makes
a clicking sound when this is done
correctly.
10. Place the juicer jug (8) under the
spout.
11. Plug in and switch on the power.
Preparing fruits and vegetables
• Always wash fruits and vegetables
thoroughly before juicing.
• It is not necessary to remove
seeds, pits or thin peels before
using the appliance.
• The juice presser can press whole
fruits, e.g. apples and pears, but
it is a good idea to slice them into
smaller pieces to ensure that they
are rotten or have insects etc. in
the core.
• Fruits with thick peels such as
oranges and lemons must be peeled
before juicing. It is particularly
important to remove all the peel
(including the pith), as even small
amounts of peel can impart an
unpleasant taste to the juice.
• It is also necessary to remove large
stones such as plum and apricot
stones before juicing to avoid
damaging the appliance.
• Large fruits and vegetables should
be cut into smaller pieces that fit
into the funnel.
Use
1. Start the appliance by turning the
on/off button to position "I" (low
speed) or position "II" (high speed).
2. The low speed setting is
suitable for juicing soft fruits and
vegetables.
3. The high speed setting is suitable
for juicing harder fruits and
vegetables.
4. Feed the selected fruits and/
or vegetables into the appliance
through the funnel a little at a time,
pushing them down using the
tamper (1).
a. Make sure that you turn the
tamper so that the groove in
the tamper fits into the funnel
properly.
b. Long vegetables such as
carrots should be fed into the
funnel pointy end first.
c. Press the fruits and/or
vegetables gently with the
funnel. Too much pressure
reduces the amount of juice
extracted and can damage the
appliance.
d. Stop the appliance before
removing the tamper to add
more fruit/vegetables in order
to avoid to avoid splashes.
5. Keep an eye on the fruit pulp
holder and stop juicing before the
holder becomes too full.
6. Always turn off the power by
turning the On/Off button to "0"
position before taking off the lid.
7. Please note: Do not leave the
appliance running for more than 2
minutes at a time. If the appliance
has been running for more than
2 minutes, leave it to cool down
before you use it again.
