BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Remove all packaging materials from the appliance and its accessories.
2. Thoroughly wash all removable parts (pusher
A1
, lid
A3
, titanium strainer
A4
,
juice collector
A5
, the juice jug
A11
and pulp container
A13
) that come into
contact with food in warm water using kitchen detergent. Then rinse all these
parts under clean running water and thoroughly wipe dry with a fine wiping
cloth.
3. The pusher
A1
, titanium strainer
A4
and the pulp container
A13
may be washed
in a dishwasher. We recommend washing the titanium strainer
A4
in the top rack
of the dishwasher.
Attention:
The blade at the bottom of the titanium strainer
A4
is very sharp and so
it is necessary to be especially careful when handling it. Careless handling
may lead to injury.
ASSEMBLING THE JUICER
1. Place the juicer on an even, dry surface, e.g. on a work table. Prior to assembly,
always check that the juicer is turned off (switch 0/I
A8
is in position 0 – turned
off) and the power cord is disconnected from the power source.
2. Insert the juice collector
A5
into the juicer – base unit
A7
as shown in the picture.
Make sure that the juice collector spout
A12
is located in the groove in the base
unit. Place the DripStop
A12a
on to the spout
A12
.
3. Insert the titanium strainer
A4
into the juice collector
A5
. Make sure that the
strainer is properly seated on the drive shaft.
4. Tilt the pulp container
A13
with its upper edge towards the base unit
A7
and
slide it from underneath on to the rim of the juice collector. Then push the
bottom of the pulp container towards the base unit. When correctly seated,
there should be a space of no more than 1 mm between the pulp container
A13
and the base unit.
5. Cover everything with the lid
A3
and push it down into the correct position.
6. Use one hand to push the lid
A3
downwards and at the same time tilt the locking
arm
A6
on to it so that the lid is secured in the correct position. An audible click
will be heard. The juicer is equipped with a safety mechanism that prevents it
from being started unless the lid is correctly seated and secured in place with
the locking arm.
7. Place the juice jug
A11
underneath the spout
A12
.
8. Insert the pusher
A1
into the feed tube
A2
hole. Notice, that to make movement
easier, the pusher
A1
has grooves that slide over the tabs in the top part of the
feed tube
A2
.
9. The juicer is now assembled and ready for use.
USING THE JUICER
1. Make sure that the juicer is correctly assembled and then connect it to the el.
power socket. The juicer is equipped with a safety mechanism that prevents it
from being started unless it is correctly assembled.
2. Place the juice jug
A11
, a glass or another suitable container below the juice
spout
A12
. Check that the pulp container
A6
is installed in its place. Check
the DripStop
A12a
, it should be turned to the right to enable the juice to flow
through from underneath.
3. Prepare ingredients suitable for juicing (fruit and vegetables). Thoroughly
wash them and cut them up into pieces that will pass through the feed tube
A2
. Remove hard stones that are contained in, for example, apricots, peaches,
mangoes, etc. and inedible peels, e.g. from oranges, pineapples, melons,
mandarins, etc.
4. Prior to starting the juicer, make sure that the lid
A3
is properly secured in the
correct position. Using the control button
A10
, set the required level depending
on the hardness of the ingredients. The juicer can be set from the lowest level 1
(which is intended for soft ingredients, e.g. bilberries, water melon, tomatoes) to
the highest level 5 (which is intended for hard ingredients, e.g. celery, beetroot,
etc.).
5. Turn on the juicer (set the 0/I switch
A8
to position I – on). The level 1–5 can be
set during the juicing process depending on the hardness of the ingredients.
Take the pusher
A1
out of the feed tube
A2
. Gradually add the prepared
ingredients into the feed tube
A2
and push them down using the pusher. You
will achieve optimal results if you fill the feed tube
A2
gradually and push the
ingredients down gently.
Attention:
Do not use fingers or other utensils to push ingredients through the feed
tube
A2
. Always use the pusher
A1
designed for this purpose.
The maximum time of non-stop operation of this appliance is 15 minutes.
Then allow it to cool down for 10 minutes.
When juicing larger batches of ingredients, do not run the appliance non-
stop for longer than 10 seconds.
6. If the juice jug
A11
or pulp container
A13
fill up during the juicing process,
turn the juicer off by setting the 0/I switch
A8
to position 0 – off, empty out the
respective container and then put it back in its place. Then you can put the juicer
back into operation and continue juicing.
7. To turn off the juicer, set the 0/I switch
A8
to position 0 – off. Then disconnect the
juicer from the power socket. Allow the juice to flow out, then turn the DripStop
A12a
to the left to prevent dripping.
8. When you have finished using the juicer, disassemble it according to the
instructions contained in chapter Disassembling the juicer and clean it out
according to the instructions contained in chapter Cleaning and maintenance.
Before disassembling the juicer, make sure that the juicer is turned off (0/I switch
A8
is in position 0 – off), disconnected from the power socket and that the
rotating parts have stopped.
USEFUL ADVICE AND TIPS
■
Before you start juicing, thoroughly wash all the ingredients and cut them up
into smaller pieces that will pass through the feed tube
A2
. Remove hard stones
that are contained in, for example, apricots, peaches, mangoes, etc. and inedible
peels, e.g. from oranges, pineapples, melons, mandarins, etc.
■
To achieve optimal results, always process only fresh ripened fruits and
vegetables. Overripe or unripe fruits and vegetables will negatively affect the
resulting taste of the juice.
■
If you juice fruits and vegetables of varying consistency, we recommend that
you start with the softer fruits and vegetables, e.g. citruses, berries, etc. and then
proceed on with harder fruits, e.g. apples. Always select a speed appropriate for
the type of ingredients that are being juiced.
■
Do not use the juicer for processing frozen or excessively hard ingredients, e.g.
sugar cane.
■
Place the ingredients into the feed tube
A2
gradually and push through gently
with mild pressure. Do not overfill the feed tube
A2
and do not push the
ingredients in too quickly and with excessive pressure. The process separating
the juice from the pulp occurs gradually and will not be sped up by pushing
ingredients in quickly.
■
To prevent freshly pressed apple juice from turning brown, you can add a little
lemon juice.
■
To prevent losing valuable minerals, we recommended consuming the juice
immediately after it is pressed.
DISASSEMBLING THE JUICER
1. Check that you have turned off the juicer by setting the 0/I switch
A8
to
position 0 – off and disconnected the power cord from the power source. Wait
until rotating parts come to a complete stop before disassembly. Wait until the
juice flows out and turn the DripStop
A12a
to the left to prevent the juice from
dripping.
2. Release the locking arm
A6
from the lid and tilt it downwards.
3. Remove the lid
A3
and take out the pulp container
A13
by tilting the bottom
away from the base unit. Then slide the pulp container from underneath the rim
of the juice collector
A5
.
4. Take out the juice collector
A5
with the titanium strainer
A4
still inside it by
pulling it upwards away from the base unit
A7
.
5. Take the titanium strainer
A4
out of the juice collector
A5
. We recommend that
the strainer
A4
is removed over a kitchen sink.
Attention:
There is a blade in the middle part of the strainer
A4
. Be especially careful
to avoid injury when handling the strainer
A4
. Do not touch the blade.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
■
Make sure that the juicer is turned off (the 0/I switch is in position 0 – off), the
power cord is disconnected from the power source and that rotating parts have
stopped.
