Preparing the fruits/vegetables
• Important: Use only well ripened fruit, as other-
wise the filter
d could become quickly blocked.
This would require repeated cleaning of the filter
d .
• Wash or peel the fruits/vegetables that you wish
to process.
• Large seeds or stones should always be removed
before filling the appliance.
• Stone fruit (such as apples, pears) can be pro-
cessed with the skin and seed centres. Remove
all other stones (peaches, plums etc.), all large
seeds (melons etc.) and stalks to avoid possible
damage to the appliance.
• Fruits and vegetables with thick peels (e.g. citrus
fruits, melons, kiwis, beets) must always be peeled
first.
• The main stalk is to be removed from grapes.
• Cut the fruit or vegetables into pieces that are
sized to fit into the loading shaft w .
Note:
Raisins are not suitable for juicing as they contain
too little juice. Rhubarb or other fibrous vegetables/
fruits are not suitable for juicing as the fibres block
the juice extractor.
Juicing
Warning:
DO NOT operate the juice extractor for longer than
30 minutes (CO-Time) without a break. After 30 mi-
nutes of continuous use allow the juice extractor to
cool down. Otherwise the appliance could be
damaged.
Warning:
NEVER insert your hands or other objects into the
loading shaft
w when working with the appliance.
This could lead to grave personal injuries and/or
serious damage to the appliance.
1. Switch the appliance on at the On/Off
switch o .
For fruit varieties that contain a lot of juice use
speed setting I.
For drier fruits select
speed level II.
2. Hold the stodger q in one hand and feed the
fruit and vegetable pieces with the other hand
into the loading shaft
w . ALWAYS use the stodger
q to carefully press the fruit/vegetable pieces
into the loading shaft w . Whilst the loaded fruit/
vegetables are being processed, insert further
pieces into the loading shaft. Do not switch the
appliance off.
Note:
To avoid fruit or vegetables becoming blocked in
the loading shaft
w , only fill it when the appliance
is switched on. Should fruit or vegetable pieces be-
come stuck in the loading shaft
w and they cannot
be promptly freed with the stodger q , proceed as
follows to avoid damage to the appliance:
• Immediately switch the appliance off and remove
the power plug i from the wall socket.
• Loosen the clasps r and remove the housing
lid e .
• Remove the fruit or vegetable pieces causing the
blockage.
• Reassemble the appliance and continue with
juice extraction.
3. Always switch the appliance off immediately
