Preparing fruits and vegetables
CAUTION!
Before extracting the juice, wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly to remove
any pollutants and plant protection products.
For the top performance and best taste use only fresh fruit and vegetables.
The best foods for the juice extractor are apples, pineapples, oranges, grapes,
melons, carrots, celery, beetroots and tomatoes.
Thanks to the particularly big feed chute the juice can be extracted from the whole
fruits or vegetables, whereas certain types require additional processing in the form
of e.g. peeling, removing seeds, cutting. While preparing fruits and vegetables take
into account the instructions and data included in the table below.
Thin-skinned fruit and vegetables do not require peeling. You can clean them
gently with a clean sponge to remove any dirt or wax coating.
Thick skins from e.g. lemons, oranges or pineapples must be removed.
Fruits with large seeds and stones, such as mango and papaya and other stone
fruits, should have them removed to avoid damage to sieve knives.
Seeds from some fruits can have a bitter taste. Remove the seeds before
extraction of juice from such fruits.
Cut large fruits and vegetables into smaller pieces. Cone-shaped vegetables and
fruits, such as carrots, should be inserted with the thin end first.
Some food cannot be processed in the juice extractor due to hardness (eg. coconuts).
