Preparing your juicer Before using your juicer Check the juicer after unpacking for any visual damage or missing parts such as: • • •
Misaligned or damaged casing. Damage to the plug or cable. If any parts are missing or there is any damage, please refer to page 17 for Customer Services.
Clean your juicer Before using the juicer you should clean the removable parts in warm soapy water with a soft cloth or sponge. Be careful when cleaning the juicing blade, dip in soapy water and clean using the cleaning brush provided. At no point should you touch the blade as this could be harmful. Do not immerse the base unit in any liquid. If the unit is unplugged, you can clean the body with a damp soft cloth and mild detergent. Allow all parts to thoroughly dry before using. Choose a suitable place for use Place the juicer on a flat, stable surface with a plug socket close by. Do not place in close proximity to any source of heat. If you apply a small amount of downwards pressure, the feet on the base should secure to the surface. This helps to prevent the unit from moving around during use. Once you have cleaned your juicer and prepared a suitable place for use, you are now ready to begin preparing your food.

Using your juicer Food preparation Always wash your fruit and vegetables thoroughly before juicing. It is necessary to remove large seeds, pips or peels before using the appliance. It is also necessary to remove large pits (such as plums and apricot stones) to avoid damaging the appliance. Fruits with thick peels, such as oranges and lemons must be peeled before juicing, as even small amounts of peel can affect the taste of the juice. Large fruits and vegetables should be cut into pieces so that they can fit into the funnel. Note: Before using the appliance for the first time or after prolonged storage without use, wash any parts that come into contact with food.
Assembly/Disassembly – Always unplug the juicer before attaching/removing parts Juicer lid To unlock, securely grip the sides of the locking arm and, supporting the unit with one hand, push the arm clockwise to the unlock position. This is indicated by the unlock symbol. The arm should unclip from the lid. Repeat this action with the locking arm on the back of the juicer. The lid can now be lifted for removal. To lock the juicer for use, place the lid back onto the unit and slide the locking arm anticlockwise clipping back onto the clips of the juicer lid to the lock symbol. When it ‘clicks’ the unit should be secure. Repeat to secure both locking arms.

Using your juicer Pulp container When the lid is unlocked/removed, you can remove the pulp container from the side of the base. Grip the handle on the side of the container and pull away from the unit to remove. To replace the container onto the unit, use an upwards scooping action to secure it under the black clip at the top of the base. Juicing blade When the lid is removed, you can remove the juicing blade from the top of the unit. Note: At no point should you touch the blade as this could be harmful. Carefully grip the rim at the top using the fingertips of both hands and pull upwards to detach. To replace the juicing blade, place it back into the top of the unit, aligning the grooves of the blade base with the ribs in the driving cog at the top of the unit. Push down on the rims at the top until it ‘clicks’ into place and secures. Plastic jug The plastic jug does not clip into place. Put the lid onto the jug and make sure the square shaped space in the lid is under the juice outlet on the side of the juicer, so that the juice will pour into the jug. Food pusher Remove the food pusher from the chute by lifting it upwards. To replace, align the groove in the side of the pusher with the plastic rib on the side of the chute and lower.

Using your juicer Now that you understand how to put together your juicer and your fruit/vegetables are prepared, you are ready for use. Remove the food pusher from the feeding chute if it is placed in there. Plug the juicer into a suitable outlet and make sure it switched on. Ensure that both locking arms are in the lock position or the unit will not work. Turn the power control dial to the required speed setting. Speed ‘2’ will allow the unit to operate faster than speed ‘1’, and the pulse, ‘P’ setting, can be used for momentary power to the juicer. Speed ‘1’ is especially useful for soft fruit and vegetables, such as watermelons, grapes, raspberries, cucumbers and tomatoes. Speed ‘2’ is suitable for all kinds of fruit and vegetables. Note: The maximum time of one operating period is 2 minutes on full power. If you operate for longer than this in one sitting, this could damage the unit and create a potential hazard. Turn off and allow the unit to cool for at least 2 minutes before continuing use.

Using your juicer Place the pre-cut food into the feeding chute and gently guide it to the juicing blade using the food pusher. Never insert your fingers or other objects into the feeding chute.
The juicer will filter the pulp into the container and pump out the extracted juice from the juicer outlet into the plastic jug. Do not exceed 600ml juice/1,300ml pulp. When finished, turn the speed control dial to the ‘OFF’ position and unplug. Unlock the arms and remove the container as per previous instructions. Empty contents carefully into a bin. Remove the plastic jug with juice in, gently tipping left and pulling outwards. Pour into a drinking glass and consume as soon as possible. You can now refit these for continued use if necessary.

Tips • • • • • • • • •
•
Try and use fresh fruit/vegetables as they contain the most juice. Here are some ideal ingredients to juice: pineapple, apples, grapes, cucumbers, celery, carrots, spinach, melons, tomatoes and other varieties of citrus fruit. Different varieties of apples produce different tastes and flavours when juicing them. Experiment with different combinations to find your favourite juice. Leafy green vegetables such as cabbage and spinach can be juiced. Simply roll the leaves into cylinders of an appropriate size before feeding them into the funnel. Harder more fibrous fruit such as bananas, mangoes, papayas and avocados are not well-suited to juicing as the result is often of a pureelike consistency rather than juice. All types of juice should be consumed right after juicing, as fresh juice quickly loses important nutrients when exposed to the air. The taste can also be affected. Pure apple juice turns brown quickly when exposed to the air, to prevent discolouring serve the apple juice immediately after juicing or add a little lemon juice. Remember that fruit pulp can be used alternatively in cakes, vegetable lasagne, muffins etc. You will need to empty the jug into a glass and reinsert if you wish to yield more than 600ml juice. You may also need to turn off the juicer and clear the pulp from the lid into the bin as it can get stuck and limit the effectiveness of your juicer. Plenty more recipes can be found on the internet.

Do not attempt to wash any appliance parts in the dishwasher as this could damage them. Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh scrubbing brushes and chemical cleaner as they may cause damage to the unit. Be careful when cleaning the juicing blade, dip in soapy water and clean using the cleaning brush provided. At no point should you touch the blade as this could be harmful.
