Operation

Before First Use
Remove all promotional materials and packing as well as any foreign objects, but do not
remove the model label.
Before first use and after a long period of storage, clean the citrus juicer with a damp soft
cloth and warm soapy water (see Care and Cleaning).
Assembling the Juicer
CAUTION: Before you plug in the juicer, always ensure that the appliance is assembled
correctly and, that there are no foreign objects in the filter basket or juice container.
1. Lift off the dust cover.
2. Unwrap the power cord from the cord storage under the bottom of the motor base. Place
the appliance on a sufficient surface (see Safeguards for Daily Operation).
3. Place the juice container on the motor base. The spout settles in the cut out of the motor
base.
4. Insert the filter basket in the juice container. The upper edge of the filter basket may not

protrude the brim of the juice container and the rotor shaft sticks out of the centre of the fil-
ter basket.
5. Place the juice cone on the rotor shaft.
Important: If food dried on the rotor shaft or in the interior of the juice cone, you may find
it difficult to mount the juice cone. Do not use any violence, but clean the surfaces of the
rotor shaft and juice cone first, before assembling the appliance (see Care and Cleaning).
CAUTION: Do not use any hard or sharp utensils or abrasive cleaners for cleaning. Handle
with care to avoid damage.
With the juice cone installed, the appliance is ready for use.

Operating Your Juicer

Important: During operation, pulp builds up in the filter basket. Do not allow the filter basket
or juice container to overfill. Otherwise, the juice will not be sufficiently separated from the
pulp. If you process a large amount of fruit, regularly interrupt juicing and unplug the appli-
ance to let the motor cool down and to empty the filter basket. Ensure, that the spout will
not block during operation. Do not leave any food dry on the appliance or any parts of
the appliance.
WARNING: Before connecting to the power supply, always ensure, that the appliance is
assembled properly and that there are no utensils in the filter basket.
Do not insert your hands, cooking utensils or any other objects (i.e. hair, clothes, brushes,
tissue) in the filter basket, when the appliance is connected to the power supply. Do not
place the appliance on wet or damp surfaces.
Always keep the table or counter dry and clean. Do not drip or spill any liquids on the
motor base or power cord. Do not place any tissue or similar materials under the motor
base to avoid fire and electric shock.
When liquids are spilled over or under the motor base than immediately unplug the appli-
ance and dry the motor base and the table or counter.
1. Place a jug or a suitable large cup or drinking glass under the spout.
2. Cut the fruit in half, using a sharp knife. It is good advice to cut the fruit at right angles
to the filets.
WARNING: Do not touch the juice cone with your hands or grasp in the filter basket while
the appliance is connected to the power supply.
3. Plug the power connector into a 220/240V AC wall power outlet.
4. With the cut facing down place a half of your fruit on the juice cone and gently press
down.
The juice cone starts rotating and begins the juicing process. For best results, adjust the
hold on the fruit to ensure, that all parts of the fruit flesh are squeezed and push the juice
