Magimix JUICE EXPERT - Juicer Manual

DESCRIPTION

Extra Press^®*
Exclusive to Magimix, the patented Extra Press®* turns your appliance into a cold press juicer.
Ideal for juicing soft or cooked fruit and vegetables (e.g. raspberries, strawberries, tomatoes, bananas) and for making plantbased milks (e.g. almonds, cashew nuts). Result: a thicker, fibre-rich juice with an exceptional yield: + antioxidants, + vitamins, + juice.
Never insert hard fruit or vegetables (e.g. carrots, coconuts) when using this function, as you risk damaging your appliance.

Juice Filter
Ideal for juicing greens (e.g. spinach, cabbage) and hard-fleshed fruit and vegetables (e.g. apples, carrots and fennel). Result: a clear, pure juice with no pulp or pips

Citrus Press / Pulp System^®
Ideal for juicing oranges, lemons, grapefruit and other citrus fruit.
Result: instant, pip-free juice, with or without pulp

Veg Cutter*
Ideal for making fruit or vegetable carpaccio, salads, tarts, and much more.
Result: sliced, grated or shredded fruit and vegetables

For some fruit (e.g. pineapple, pear), you can either use the Juice Filter or the Extra Press®, depending on how you like your juice:

• Juice Filter: a clear, pure juice with a lower yield.
• Extra Press®: a thicker, fi bre-rich juice with a higher yield.

All the removable parts are dishwasher safe.

MAXIMUM PROCESSING CAPACITIES

The maximum capacities below are for average-sized fruit and vegetables. Results may vary according to the size of the fruit and vegetables you choose, as well as their variety, degree of ripeness, quality and freshness.

TIPS & ADVICE
When processing larger amounts, make sure you empty the bowl regularly.
It is important not to exceed these maximum capacities.

ASSEMBLY/DISASSEMBLY

Before using your appliance for the first time, make sure you wash all the parts thoroughly.

Unwind the length of power cord you need. Thread the power cord through the notches on the underside of the appliance to avoid vibrations.

Assembly

Disassembly

Double failsafe
Your appliance will only work if both the bowl AND the lid (or citrus press) are locked into place.

USING THE CITRUS PRESS

Using the Pulp System ® (pulp-free juice)

• For pulp-free juice, slot the Pulp System onto the spindle in the bowl.
  
• Fit the citrus press on the bowl and turn to lock into place.
  
• Insert the lever arm tab into the corresponding notches. Place the cone on the spindle.
  
• Position the citrus half on the cone. Lower the arm, press 1, then exert gentle pressure on the arm until all the juice has been extracted.
  

TIPS & ADVICE
Make sure you wash the citrus press, cones and Pulp System ® thoroughly to avoid white marks.

USING THE JUICE FILTER

• Never insert your fingers or an object into the feed tube. Always use the pusher supplied for that purpose.
• Wait until the Juice Filter has come to a standstill before unlocking the lid.
• Find out the maximum capacities.

Stop and empty the Juice Filter regularly (or if it starts vibrating). To maximize your appliance's lifespan and ensure optimum yield, exert a gentle pressure on the pusher to keep the fruit or vegetables in contact with the grater. When all the fruit or vegetables have gone through, leave your appliance running for a few more seconds to extract every last drop of juice.

USING THE EXTRA PRESS^®

• Never insert your fingers or an object into the feed tube. Always use the pusher supplied for that purpose.
• Wait until the Juice Filter has come to a standstill before unlocking the lid.
• Never insert hard fruit or vegetables (e.g. carrots).
• Find out the maximum capacities.

USING THE VEG CUTTER

• Always handle the discs with care, as the blades are extremely sharp.
• Never insert an object or your fingers into the feed tube. Always use the pusher supplied for that purpose.

The function is engraved on the disc.
R/G = grater, E/S = slicer, J = julienne.
The number corresponds to the thickness of the cut (e.g. 2 = 2 mm).

Find out the maximum capacities.

Slicing: stand long fruit or vegetables (e.g. leeks, carrots) upright in the feed tube until it is full.

OPTIONAL DISCS:

CLEANING

Make sure you always unplug your appliance before cleaning.
Immediately after use, detach and wash the parts (water + washing-up liquid).

Bowl: push the spout down. Citrus press: pull the tab to release the lever arm.

Motor base: wipe with a soft damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive products.

With your Juice Expert®, you can follow the seasons and harness your desires and imagination to create an endless array of juices, smoothies, coulis and sorbets.
Our tips and advice will ensure that each of your creations is a success. For delicious juices packed with vitamins and nutrients, make sure you choose and use your fruit and vegetables carefully. It is best to buy organic fruit and vegetables. Here are a few simple rules to follow:
Fruit and vegetables with thin, "edible" skins: no need to peel them – just wash them thoroughly before juicing in your Juice Expert®.

Fruit and vegetables with thick, "nonedible" skins: peel before using.

Stone fruit and vegetables: make sure you remove the stone before juicing.

Fibrous fruit and vegetables or dried fruit: soak in cold water for 30 minutes (fibrous greens) or 8 hours (dried fruit).

• Insert the fruit and vegetables into the feed tube one at a time, taking care not overload the machine.
• The amount of juice contained in fruit and vegetables can vary according to their variety, freshness, ripeness and season.
• We recommend using fresh fruit and vegetables, as they are juicier. Out of season, however, you can use frozen fruit. Make sure they are completely thawed before pressing. You can also use canned fruit in syrup (e.g. pears, litchis).
• Some hard or fibrous vegetables may cause your appliance to vibrate. Add a juice-rich fruit or vegetable (e.g. apple or cucumber) to balance the Juice Filter.
• Do not throw away the pulp some of it can be used in cakes and soups, and the rest can go on your compost heap.

Yield

• We recommend alternating between juice-poor (e.g. spinach, cabbage leaves) and juice-rich (e.g. apple, cucumber, carrot) fruit and vegetables.
• More generally, to maximize the amount of juice you obtain, add juice-rich fruit and vegetables such as apples, carrots and cucumber.
• Soak fibrous vegetables for at least 30 minutes and dried fruit for 8 hours in cold water to optimize their yield.
• Depending on whether you use the Juice Filter or Extra Press® attachment, you will not obtain the same amount of juice.
  With the Extra Press®, a patented system that crushes the fruit and vegetables to extract the maximum amount of juice, you will always have more juice than with the Juice Filter.
• After juicing, remember to recover any juice that is still in the bowl, to maximize yield.

Texture

• If you have the Juice Expert® 3 or Juice Expert® 4, you can make two types of juice. When juicing pineapples, for instance, the Juice Filter will yield a clear, pure juice, whereas the Extra Press® attachment will deliver a creamy smoothie that is richer in fibres and other nutrients.
• Some juices such as apple juice can quickly go brown. To slow this process down, add a dash of lemon juice.
• Depending on the type of fruit and vegetables you use, the juice may settle into separate layers. This does not affect either the taste or the health benefits of the juice. Just stir with a spoon.
