Prior to First Use
Before using for the first time, or after prolonged storage without use, wash any parts that will come
into contact with food.
Using the Apparatus
Assembly before use:
• Place the motor section (3) on a flat surafce, eg: a kitchen counter, and make sure it is standing firmly
on the four suckers underneath
• Place the base (6) on the motor section so that the spout (5) fits in the slot on the side of the motor
section.
• Push the fruit pulp holder (2) up under the drain edge on the base so that it locks on the foot of the
motor unit tightly
• Carefully lock the centrifuge bowl (7) onto the base
• Be careful not to touch the sharp parts in the bottom of the centrfuge bowl
• Make sure that the centrifuge bowl sits properly on its base and that it rotates evenly
• Place the lid (10) on the appliance so that it covers both the fruit pulp holder and the centrifuge bowl
uni. Make sure that the lid fits tightly onto the base
• Turn the lock mechanism (4) to the vertical position and make sure that it engages the lid and locks
it fast. The lock mechanism makes a clicking sound when it is done correctly
• Place a glass, bowl or other suitable container under the spout
• The apparatus is now ready for use
Preparing Fruits & Vegetables for Juicing
• Always wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly before juicing
• It is not necessary to remove seeds, pips or thin peels before using the appliance
• Fruits with thick peels such as oranges and lemons must be peeled before juicing. It is particularly
important to remove all the peel (including the pips), as even a small amount can cause an unpleasant
taste to the juice
• It is also necessary to remove large pips/stones (such as plum and apricot pips/stones) to avoid
damaging the appliance
• Large fruits and vegetables should be cut into pieces that can fit into the funnel (9)

Use
• Start the appliance by turning the On/Off button to position ‘’1” (low speed) or position “2” (high
speed)
• The low speed setting is suitable for juicing soft fruits and vegetables
• The high speed setting is suitable for juicing harder fruits and vegetables
• Feed the selected fruits and/or vegetables into the appliance through the funnel a little at a time,
pushing them down using the tamper (1)
• Make sure that you turn the tamper so that the groove in the tamper fits into the funnel properly
• Long vegetables such as carrots should be fed into the funnel point end first
• Press the fruit and/or vegetables gently with the funnel. Too much presser reduces the amount of
juice extracted and can damage the appliance
• Stop the appliance before removing the tamper to add more fruit/vegetables in order to avoid any
splashes
• Keep an eye on the fruit pulp holder and stop juicing before the holder becomes too full
• Always turn off the power by turning the “On/Off” button to “0” position before taking off the lid
Please note: Do not leave the appliance running for more than 3 minutes at a time. If the appliance
has been running for 3 minutes, allow it to cool down for 20 minutes before you use it again.
Tip
• If you line the fruit pulp holder with a plastic bag before using the appliance, it will be easier to clean
• Use fresh fruits and vegetables - they contain the most juice
• Good candidates for juicing include: pineapple, apples, cucumbers, celery, carrots, spinach,
melons, tomatoes and most citrus fruits
• The various vareties of apple yield juice with different flavours and consistency. Experiment with
different combinations
• Leafy green vegetables such as cabbage and spinach can be juiced. Roll the leaves into cylinders
of an appropriate size before feeding them into the funnel
• Fibrous fruits and vegetables as well as those with very firm flesh such as bananas, mango’s
papayas and avocados are not well-suited to juicing, as the result is often mashed fruit instead of juice
• All types of juice should be consumed right after juicing, as fresh juice quickly loses important
nutrients when exposed to the oxygen in the air. The taste can also be affected.
• Pure apple juice turns brown quickly when exposed to air. To prevent it discolouring, serve the apple
juice immediately after juicing or add a little lemon juice
• Remember that fruit pulp can be used in cakes, vegetable lasagne, muffins etc
Storage
• Ensure the appliance is clean and dry before storing
• The appliance contains sharp parts - keep out of reach from children
Cleaning
• Remove the plug from the wall socket and allow the apparatus to cool down before cleaning
• The best way to clean the motor section is with a damp cloth and, if necessary, a little detergent. Do
NOT immerse the motor section in any form of liquid
• The centrifuge bowl, fruit pulp holder, base and all other detachable parts can be washed by hand
or in a dishwasher 4

• Be careful not to touch the sharp parts in the bottom of the centrifuge bowl
• Do not use any kind of strong or abrasive cleaning agent on the appliance or its accessories. Never
use a scouring sponge or similar to clean it, as the surface may become damaged
• Allow all parts of the appliance to dry completely before reassembling it after cleaning
