Using the appliance

Use this appliance for its intended household use as described in this manual.
1 Wash the fruit and/or vegetables. If necessary, cut them into pieces that fit into the feeding tube.
2 Place a jug or a glass under the spout (Fig. 12).
3 Press the on/off button to switch on the appliance (Fig. 13).
Note: The appliance only functions if the juicing unit and the pulp outlet are assembled correctly and the
locking clamp is locked properly.
4 Put the pieces of fruit or vegetables in the feeding tube and gently press them down towards
the juicing screw with the pusher (Fig. 14).
Never insert your fingers or any other object into the feeding tube or juicing unit.
5 When the juice flow has stopped, switch off the appliance and wait until the juicing screw has
stopped rotating.
6 Press the pre-clean button to remove the last drops of juice from the juicing unit (Fig. 15).
7 Press the drip stop when finished (Fig. 16).
Note: The drip stop will prevent juice from dripping onto the table after you remove the jug or glass.
Tips
- Use fresh fruit and vegetables, as they contain more juice. Pineapples, beetroots, celery stalks,
apples, cucumbers, carrots, spinach, melons, tomatoes, pomegranates and grapes are particularly
suitable for processing in the juicer.
- You do not have to remove thin peels or skins. Only peel skins or rinds you should not eat such
as oranges, pineapples, kiwis, melons, bananas, uncooked beetroots, etc.
- If you want to juice fruits with pits, such as peaches, plums or cherries, remove the pits before juicing.
- When you prepare apple juice, remember that the thickness of the juice depends on the kind 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.
- Apple juice turns brown very quickly. To slow down this process, add a few drops of lemon juice.
- You can also juice starchy fruits such as bananas and mangoes. You can add milk or water directly
through the feeding tube.
- Citrus fruits can also be processed with the juicer. Always remove the white pith from citrus fruits
before juicing to avoid a bitter taste.
