Using the appliance
JuicingYou can use the juicer to produce fruit, vegetable, and green juice.Tips
- Do not operate the juicer for more than 60 seconds at a time when you juice heavy loads and let it cool down sufficiently afterward.
- Before you start juicing make sure that the spout is incorrect juice position, the opening of the spout should point downwards.
- To avoid splashing of juice, place the juice jug with a properly assembled juice jug lid below the spout.FiberBoost FunctionTurn the control knob to setting 1 for the low fiber juice or to setting 2 for high fiber juice.
- Low fiber juice setting produces a more clear juice.
- High fiber juice setting produces a fiber-rich juice with many fine fibers or smooth texture.
- Use the pre-clean function with setting 2.Note
- Always switch on the device and be sure it is running at full speed before you insert fruits or vegetables into the feeding tube.
- Do not exert too much pressure on the pusher, as this could affect the quality of the end result. It could even cause the sieve to come to a halt.
- Never insert your fingers or an object into the feeding tube.
- If the pulp container becomes full during use, switch off the appliance and detach the lid and the juice collector. Then carefully remove the pulp container and empty it.
- For optimal performance clean the unit (lid, sieve, pulp container) after each jug of juice.Drip Stop
- After you have processed all ingredients and the juice flow has stopped, turn the spout clockwise by about 120° to activate the drip stop function.Empty the pulp containerNote: When the pulp container has reached its maximum capacity, pulp ends up in the juice collector, lid, and in the juice.If the pulp container becomes overfilled, the appliance may become blocked. When this occurs, switch off the appliance and remove the pulp from the pulp container. Let the appliance cool down for 15 minutes.The transparent pulp container helps you to see when the pulp container is full. Also, check the level indicated on the juice jug. When the pulp reaches the level of the juice collector, the pulp container needs to be emptied.
TipsPreparations
- Use fresh fruit and vegetables, as they contain more juice. Pineapples, beetroots, celery stalks, apples, cucumbers, carrots, spinach, melons, tomatoes, oranges, and grapes are particularly suitable for processing in the juicer.
- The juicer is not suitable for processing very hard and/or fibrous or starchy fruits or vegetables such as sugar cane.
- Leaves and leaf stalks of e.g. lettuce can also be processed in the juicer. To get the most out of your leafy greens, roll them up before juicing and juice the greens in-between hard fruits like apples or carrots.
- Remove stones from cherries, plums, peaches, etc. You do not have to remove cores or seeds from fruits like melons, apples, and grapes.
- When you use the juicer, you do not have to remove thin peels or skins. Only remove thick peels that you would not eat, e.g. those of oranges, pineapples, kiwis, melons, pomegranates, and uncooked beetroots.
- When you prepare apple juice, take into consideration 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.
- If you want to process citrus fruits with the juicer, remove the peel as well as the white pith. The white pith gives the juice a bitter taste.
- 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 hand blender to process these fruits.
- To extract the maximum amount of juice, always press down the pusher slowly.Serving
- Drink the juice immediately after you have extracted it.
- If you want clear juice without a foam layer, put the lid with an integrated foam separator on the juice jug. If you want cloudy juice with a foam layer, remove the lid with an integrated foam separator from the juice jug and stir the juice before you pour it in a glass.
- Apple juice turns brown very quickly. To slow down this process, add a few drops of lemon juice.
- When you serve cold drinks, add a few ice cubes.
