• 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.Makesurethatthelidtstightlyontothebase.
• 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 spout must be in the down position to let the
juice run out
• The apparatus now ready for use.
Preparing fruits and vegetables for juicing
• Always wash fruits and vegetables thorougly 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
piecesthatcantintothefunnel(9).
Use
• Start the appliance by turning the =n/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

o Long vegetables such as carrots should be fed

o Press the fruits and/or vegetables gently with the
funnel. Too much presser 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.
• Place the spout in the up position to stop the juice

• 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 2 minutes at a time. If the appliance has
been running for 2 minutes, allow it to cool down for 20
minutes before you use it again.
TIP
• If you line the fruit pulp holder with a plastibag
before using the appliance, it will be easier to clean
the appliance.
• Use fresh fruits and vegetables – they contain the
most juice.
• Good candidates for juicing include pineapple,
apples, cucumbers, celery, carrots, spinach,
melons, tomatoes and most citrus fruits.
• The various varieties of apple yield juice with
differentavorsandconsistency.Experimentwith

• Leafy green vegetables such as cabbage and
spinach can be juiced. Roll the leaves into cylinders
of an appropriate size before feeding them into the
funnel.
• Fibrous fruits and vegetables as well as those with
veryrmeshsuchasbananas,mangoes,papayas
and avocadoes are not well-suited to juicing, as the
result is often mashed fruit instead of juice.
• All types of juice should be consumed right after
juicing, as fresh juice quickly looses important
nutrients when exposed to the oxygen in the air.
Taste can also be affected.
• Pure apple juice turns brown quickly when exposed
to air. To prevent discoloration, serve apple juice
immediately after juicing or add a little lemon juice.
• Remember that fruit pulp can be used in cakes,
vegetablelasagne,mufns,etc.
Storage
• Ensure the appliance is clean and dry before storing.
• The appliance contains sharp parts - keep out of the
reach of children.
