Using the appliance
Tips
Use fresh fruit and vegetables, as they contain
more juice. Pineapples, beetroots, celery stalks,
apples, cucumbers, carrots, spinach, melons,
tomatoes, pomegranates, oranges and grapes are
particularly suitable for processing in the juicer.
You do not have to remove thin peels or skins.
Only remove thick peels, e.g. those of oranges,
pineapples and uncooked beetroots. Also remove
the white pith of citrus fruits because it has a bitter
taste.
When you prepare apple juice, remember that the
thickness of the apple 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.
Fruits that contain starch, such as bananas,
papayas, avocados, figs and mangoes are not
suitable for processing in the juicer. Use a food
processor, blender or bar blender to process these
fruits.
Leaves and leaf stalks of e.g. lettuce can also be
processed in the juicer.
Drink the juice immediately after you have
extracted it. If it is exposed to air for some time,
the juice loses its taste and nutritional value.
Cleaning
Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning
agents or aggressive liquids such as alcohol,
petrol or acetone to clean the appliance.
The appliance is easier to clean if you do so
immediately after use.
