switch off the appliance and wait until the filter has stopped rotating.
6 Push the spout upwards to prevent juice from dripping out of the

tips
- Use fresh fruit and vegetables, as they contain more juice. Pineapples,
beetroots, celery stalks, apples, cucumbers, carrots, spinach, melons,
tomatoes, pomegranates and grapes are particularly suitable for
processing in the juicer.
- You do not have to remove thin peels or skins. Only remove peels
which you would not eat, e.g. those of oranges, pineapples, kiwis,
melons and uncooked beetroots.
- When you prepare apple juice, remember that the thickness of the
apple juice depends on the kind of apple you use. The juicier the apple,
the thinner the juice. Choose a kind of apple that produces the type of
juice you prefer.
- Apple juice turns brown very quickly. To slow down this process, add a
few drops of lemon juice.
- Fruits that contain starch, such as bananas, papayas, avocados, figs and
mangoes are not suitable for processing in the juicer. Use a food
processor, blender or bar blender to process these fruits.
- Leaves and leaf stalks of e.g. lettuce can also be processed in the juicer.
- Drink the juice immediately after you have extracted it. If it is exposed
to air for some time, the juice loses its taste and nutritional value.
- To extract the maximum amount of juice, always press the pusher down
slowly.
- The juicer is not suitable for processing very hard and/or fibrous/starchy
fruits or vegetables such as sugar cane.
- Citrus fruits can also be processed with the juicer, remove the white
pith of citrus fruits because it has a bitter taste.
