Fruit and vegetable facts

Depending on the ingredients used, you can prepare up to 1.5 litres of juice without emptying the integrated pulp container. When you juice hard ingredients such as carrots or beetroots, the maximum amount of juice that can be extracted depends on the quality of the ingredients you use.

Note: When the integrated pulp container has reached its maximum capacity, pulp ends up in the juice collector and on the inside of the lid.

If the integrated pulp container is overfilled, the appliance slows down. When this occurs, switch off the appliance and remove the pulp from the integrated pulp

How to use

Troubleshooting

This chapter summarises the most common problems you could encounter with the appliance. If you are unable to solve the problem with the information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list of frequently asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country.

Before processing

• The appliance only functions if all parts are assembled correctly and the safety clamps are in locked position.
• Wash the fruit and/or vegetables and cut them, if necessary, into pieces that fit into the feeding tube.
• Make sure the juice jug is placed directly under the spout.
• Turn the control knob to switch on the appliance.
• Do not exert too much pressure on the pusher, as this could affect the quality ofthe end result. It could even cause the filter to come to a halt.
• Align the groove of the pusher with the small protrusions on the inside of the feeding tube and slide the pusher into the feeding tube.
• When you have processed all ingredients or when the integrated pulp container is full, switch off the appliance and unplug it. Wait until the filter stops rotating.
• To empty the integrated pulp container, remove the lid, the filter and the juicecollector.
• For maximum flavour and freshness, serve the juice immediately after preparation.
• 
  Never insert your fingers or an object into the feeding tube.

Preparation

• To extract the maximum amount of juice, always press the pusher down slowly.
• Use fresh fruit and vegetables, as they contain more juice. Pineapples, beetroots, celery stalks, apples, carrots, spinach, melons, tomatoes, pomegranates, oranges and grapes are particularly suitable for processing in the juicer.
• The juicer is not suitable for processing very hard and /or fibrous or starchy fruits or vegetables such as sugar cane.
• Leaves and leaf stalks of e.g. lettuce can also be processed in the juicer.
• Remove stones from cherries, plums, peaches etc. You do not have to remove cores or seeds from fruits like melons, apples and grapes.
• You do not have to remove thin peels or skins. Only remove thick peels that you would not eat, e.g. those of oranges, pineapples, kiwis, melons and uncooked beetroots.
• When you prepare apple juice, take into consideration that the thickness of the apple juice depends on the type of apple you use. The juicier the apple, the thinner the juice. Choose a kind of apple that produces the type of juice you prefer.
• If you want to process citrus fruits with the juicer, remove the peel as well as the white pith. The white pith gives the juice a bitter taste.
• Fruits that contain starch, such as bananas, papayas, avocados, figs and mangoes are not suitable for processing in the juicer. Use a food processor, blender or bar blender to process these fruits.

Serving

• Drink the juice immediately after you have extracted it. If it is exposed to air forsome time, the juice loses its taste and nutritional value.
• Apple juice turns brown very quickly. To slow down this process, add a few drops of lemon juice.
• When serving cold drinks, add a few ice cubes.
