PRIOR TO FIRST USE
Before using for the first time, or after prolonged storage without use, wash any parts that will come into
contact with food.
USING THE APPARATUS
Assembly before use:
•
Place the motor section (3) on a flat surface, e.g. a kitchen counter, and make sure it is standing firmly on
the four suckers underneath.
•
Place the base(6) on the motor section so that the spout (5) fits in the slot on the side of the motor section.
•
Push the fruit pulp holder (2) up under the drain edge on the base so that it locks on the foot of the motor
unit tightly.
•
Carefully lock the centrifuge bowl (7) onto the base.
o Be careful not to touch the sharp parts in the bottom of the centrifuge bowl.
o 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.
o Make sure that the centrifuge bowl doesn't sit too loosely on the base and that it rotates evenly.
•
Place the lid (10) 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.
•
Turn the lock mechanism (4) 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.
•
Place a glass, bowl or other suitable container under the spout.
•
The apparatus now ready for use.
Preparing fruits and vegetables for juicing
•
Always wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly before juicing.
•
It is not necessary to remove seeds, pits or thin peels before using the appliance.
•
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 pits (such as plum and apricot pits) to avoid damaging the appliance.
•
Large fruits and vegetables should be cut into pieces that can fit into the funnel (9).
Use
•
Start the appliance by turning the On/Off button to position "1" (low speed) or position "2" (high speed).
o The low speed setting is suitable for juicing soft fruits and vegetables.
o The high speed setting is suitable for juicing harder fruits and vegetables.
•
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).
o Make sure that you turn the tamper so that the groove in the tamper fits into the funnel properly.
o Long vegetables such as carrots should be fed into the funnel pointy end first.
o Press the fruits and/or vegetables gently with the funnel. Too much pressure reduces the amount of juice
extracted and can damage the appliance.
o Stop the appliance before removing the tamper to add more fruit/vegetables in order to avoid to avoid
splashes.
•
Keep an eye on the fruit pulp holder and stop juicing before the holder becomes too full.
•
Always turn off the power by turning the "On/Off" button to "0" position before taking off the lid.
Please note: Do not leave the appliance running for more than 3 minutes at a time. If the appliance has been
running for 3 minutes, allow it to cool down for 20 minutes before you use it again.
