TIP
• If you line the fruit pulp holder
with a plastic bag before using the
appliance, it will be easier to clean
the appliance.
• Use fresh fruits and vegetables
– they contain more juice than
frozen.
• Good candidates for juicing include
pineapple, apples, cucumbers,
celery, carrots, spinach, melons,
tomatoes and most citrus fruits.
• The various varieties of apple
yield juice with different flavours
and consistency. Experiment with
different combinations to find your
own favourite.
• Leafy green vegetables such as
cabbage and spinach can also
be juiced. Roll the leaves into
cylinders of an appropriate size
before feeding them into the
funnel.
• Fibrous fruits with very firm flesh
such as bananas, mangoes,
papayas and avocadoes are not
suitable for juicing, as the result is
often mashed fruit instead of juice.
• All types of juice should be
consumed right after juicing, as
fresh juice quickly looses important
nutrients as well as taste when
exposed to the oxygen in the air.
• Pure apple juice turns brown
quickly when exposed to air. To
prevent discoloration, serve apple
juice immediately after juicing or
add a little lemon juice.
• Remember that fruit pulp need
not be thrown away. It can often
be used as filling in carrot cakes,
vegetable lasagne, muffins etc.
After use
• Always turn off the appliance using
the on/off button, and unplug it,
when you are finished with it.
• Dissemble the appliance and
clean all parts before storing. See
"Cleaning".
STORAGE

dry before storage.

of the appliance.

wound around the appliance.
CLEANING
When cleaning the appliance, you
should pay attention to the following:
• Remove the plug from the mains
socket, and allow the appliance
to cool down completely before
cleaning it.
• The best way to clean the motor
section is with a slightly dampened
cloth and, if necessary, a little
detergent.
• Do NOT immerse the motor
section in any form of liquid!
• The centrifuge bowl, fruit pulp
holder, base and all other
detachable parts can be washed
up by hand or in a dishwasher.
• Be careful not to touch the
sharp parts in the bottom of the
centrifuge bowl.
• Do not use scouring pads, steel
wool or any form of strong solvents
or abrasive cleaning agents to
clean the appliance, as they can
damage the external surfaces of
the appliance.
• IMPORTANT! Allow to dry
completely after cleaning. Do not
use the appliance if it is damp.
• Always clean the appliance before
putting it away if it is not to be
used for a prolonged period.
