•Empty the juice and pulp containers when full.
•The appliance must be supervised during operation, in order to intervene should you experience
any actions that compromise safety.
•Once you have finished using the appliance, turn it off by pressing the button in pos. 0 (i.e. in the

When juicing dryer foods, you can add a bit of water through the conduit of the lid in order to extract
the juice properly from the pulp.
You can remove most of the residues inside the jug, by slowly inserting water through the conduit:
Make sure the juice and pulp jugs are emptied in order to collect the liquid that comes out. Once you

For long periods of inactivity, unplug the appliance from the power point.
Practical advice
The slow juicer is suitable for celery, spinach, carrots, apples, bananas, oranges, lemons, melons,
tomatoes, cucumbers and all kinds of fruits and vegetables that contain juice, while it is not suitable
for fruits and vegetables that contain a lot of starch (such as papaya, avocado, fig and mango, etc ..).
•Always wash fruit and vegetables well.
•Thick or non edible skin, such as pineapple, pomegranate, watermelon, cantaloupe, mango, kiwi,
etc, and woody and / or hard parts (seeds or stones: oranges, lemons, apricots, peaches, cherries,
etc.) must all be removed.
•Always cut fruit and vegetables into small pieces for optimal results; if the pieces of fruit or
vegetables are very large, cut them into a more appropriate size for them to fit into the hole in the
lid. For particularly fibrous foods (celery, etc ...), cut into pieces of 2/3 cm.
•Use fresh and ripened fruit and vegetables as they are more flavoursome and juicy compared to less
ripened ingredients. The juice should be consumed straight away as this is when the vitamin and
mineral content is greatest. If you wish to use frozen fruit, it must be fully thawed beforehand.
•To enhance the taste of the juice obtained from citrus fruits (lemons, oranges, etc.), also remove the
pith.
•Add a small amount of lemon juice to apple juice to prevent blackening.
•When using fruits that aren’t very juicy, such as bananas, you may experience a few difficulties;
add and alternate with juicier fruits or vegetables to facilitate extraction.
•It is advisable to mix green leafy vegetables and/or wheatgrass with fruit (barley or wheat) or with
other vegetables with firm flesh to obtain optimal results.
•We recommend that you try mixing various juices, such as apples, pears, oranges and pineapple, or
vegetables such as celery, tomatoes and carrots, to get tasty and nutritious juices.
•Insert food at regular intervals so that the process of juice extraction from the pulp occurs fully and
effectively.
•When preparing large amounts of juice, it can be stored in the refrigerator in a closed container, but
should be consumed within 24 hours since it does not have any preservatives.
•Do not use the appliance to chop other types of food stuffs, such as chocolate, ice cubes, nuts, sugar
cane, etc.
•Never use the slow juicer when empty.
•When juicing vegetables in particular, the addition of 10% apple juice is recommended to make the
juice much more pleasant.
•The addition of a few drops of lemon or a few pieces of fresh ginger with fruit extracts completes
the flavour.

•To clean the jug, lid, presser, pressing screw and containers, use a soft sponge with warm water and
household washing up liquid. Then rinse with plenty of water, and dry thoroughly. For the jug, it is
advised to open the slot that closes the outlet spout and to separate it from the silicone seal to wash
it; the, reseal the slot, and check the good condition of the seals and toothed wheel. Do not use steel
wool or abrasive products. All parts in contact with food (lid, presser, etc ...) can be washed in the
dishwasher.
•The motor housing must only be cleaned with a soft cloth that has been slightly dampened either
