containers, since metal containers might
affect the taste.
∙ After cleaning, cut up the fruit or
vegetable so that it fi ts down the feeder
tube.
∙ Before extracting juice from fruit or
vegetables with stones, please remove
any stones to prevent damage to the
appliance; in addition, removing the
cores optimises the juice extraction.
∙ The following fruits and vegetables
are not suitable for juice extraction:
fi gs, grapes, avocados, aubergines,
raspberries, blackberries, currants,
elderberries, rhubarb, blueberries,
cranberries etc.
∙ Tomatoes should be lightly carved in with
a knife before juice extraction.
∙ Bananas should be added for aromatic
purposes only, as very little juice can be
extracted.

Operation
∙ Place the fi lter base onto the drive unit.
Ensure that the three locating points on
the fi lter base are properly aligned with
the three corresponding holes on the
drive unit.
∙ Fit the fi lter and grating plate insert in
the fi lter base and push the insert down
until it is heard locking into place. It is
essential that the fi lter is properly locked;
otherwise, if it is not correctly connected
to the drive shaft, damage may occur
during operation. Check that the insert is
properly and securely fi tted by manually
turning the fi lter and grating plate insert
slightly in a clockwise direction; if it can
be easily turned, it is correctly fi tted.
∙ Place the transparent lid onto the fi lter
base and use the two locking clamps to
lock the lid to the base; this will activate
the safety switch.
∙ Place the juice container directly
underneath the juice outlet.
∙ Place the pulp container underneath the
pulp outlet.
∙ Insert the plug into the wall outlet and set
the switch to the required setting.
∙ Feed the cleaned and pre-cut fruit
or vegetable pieces down the feeder
tube while the unit is running. Use the
pestle and lightly push the pieces down.
Excessive pressure may result in damage
to the motor or grating plate!
∙ When processing large quantities of fruit
or vegetables, the pulp container and
juice container must be emptied from time
to time as necessary.
