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 suck -
ers 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.
• Be careful not to touch the sharp parts in the bottom of the
centrifuge bowl.
• 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.
• 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 cor -
rectly.
• 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 ju-
icing.
• It is not necessary to remove seeds, pits or thin peels before
using the appliance.
