Using The Platino - Fagor PLATINO Manuel D'utilisation

Using the Platino

1. Once all parts are securely in place, connect the power cord to an approved power
source.
2. Place one of the collectors under the Pulp Ejector, and either a glass or the other
collector under the Juice Ejector.

4. Before placing food in the Platino, make sure all foods have been thoroughly washed, if
food has to be peeled, there is no need to wash. Also make sure to cut all foods to an
appropriate size so it easily fits into the Food Chute, we recommend cutting food into
slim 3-inch pieces. *Please make sure to remove any hard seeds or pits, such as cherry
or plum pits, as it will not process in the Platino and can damage the Auger.
5. When placing any food in the Platino, the Auger will automatically pull in the food and
begin juicing. DO NOT push, force, or overstuff the unit. The Pusher provided with
the Platino is only to use when food obstructs the inside of the Food Chute.
6. It is best to insert all food at a slow pace, allowing all pulp to be extracted from the fruit
or vegetable completely.
7. Reminder: turn off the Platino when juicing is complete. Do not run the Platino without
any food inside the unit as this could overheat the motor.
8. Remember to close the drip stopper on the Juice Ejector when you have finished juicing
to avoid dripping or spilling juice onto your counter.
9. The Platino has a unique cleaning process when switching between different types of
juices. To clean, simply place one of the collectors under the Juice Ejector, make sure
the drip stopper is open and pour water though the Food Chute while the unit is on. This
will rinse out most of the remaining residue from your last juice. When the water from
the Platino begins to run clear, that is an indication the unit is clean and ready to make
a new juice recipe. When you have finished rinsing, close the drip stopper on the Juice
Ejector to prevent dripping.
NOTE: This process is not an alternative to a complete cleaning of each
disassembled part.
