appliance
• Select a safe and secure positioning for the
juice extractor. For optimal handling we recom-
mend that the appliance is positioned with the
power cable running from the rear of the app-
liance to the wall socket. All operating elements
can now be directly and easily handled:
- at the front, the On/Off switch o,
- to the left, the container for fruit pulp and
vegetable mash s
- to the right, the outlet pipe for the juice y.
Warning:
Ensure that the appliance is switched off and the plug
removed from the wall socket before assembling the
appliance. If you do not, there is a great risk that
you could injure yourself.

Preparing the fruits/vegetables
•Important: Use only well ripened fruit, as other-
wise the filter dcould become quickly blocked.
This would require repeated cleaning of the filter
d.
• Wash or peel the fruits/vegetables that you wish
to process.
• Large seeds or stones should always be removed
before filling the appliance.
• Stone fruit (such as apples, pears) can be pro-
cessed with the skin and seed centres. Remove
all other stones (peaches, plums etc.), all large
seeds (melons etc.) and stalks to avoid possible
damage to the appliance.
• Fruits and vegetables with thick peels (e.g. citrus
fruits, melons, kiwis, beets) must always be peeled
first.
• The main stalk is to be removed from grapes.
• Cut the fruit or vegetables into pieces that are
sized to fit into the loading shaft w.
Note:
Raisins are not suitable for juicing as they contain
too little juice. Rhubarb or other fibrous vegetables/
fruits are not suitable for juicing as the fibres block
the juice extractor.
Juicing
Warning:
DO NOT operate the juice extractor for longer than
30 minutes (CO-Time) without a break. After 30 mi-
nutes of continuous use allow the juice extractor to
cool down. Otherwise the appliance could be
damaged.
Warning:
NEVER insert your hands or other objects into the
loading shaft wwhen working with the appliance.
This could lead to grave personal injuries and/or
serious damage to the appliance.
1. Switch the appliance on at the On/Off
switch o.
For fruit varieties that contain a lot of juice use
speed setting I.
For drier fruits select speed level II.
2. Hold the stodger qin one hand and feed the
fruit and vegetable pieces with the other hand
into the loading shaft w. ALWAYS use the stodger
qto carefully press the fruit/vegetable pieces
into the loading shaft w. Whilst the loaded fruit/
vegetables are being processed, insert further
pieces into the loading shaft. Do not switch the
appliance off.
Note:
To avoid fruit or vegetables becoming blocked in
the loading shaft w, only fill it when the appliance
is switched on. Should fruit or vegetable pieces be-
come stuck in the loading shaft wand they cannot
be promptly freed with the stodger q, proceed as
follows to avoid damage to the appliance:
• Immediately switch the appliance off and remove
the power plug ifrom the wall socket.
• Loosen the clasps rand remove the housing
lid e.

Warning:
To avoid blockage of the juice outlet yand/or dama-
ge to the appliance, regularly clean the juice outlet
yand juice container t, and always after every
usage.
Emptying the pulp container
and the filter
You can extract juices continuously until the container
for fruit pulp and vegetable mash s is completely
full.
Warning:
Remove the plug from the power source when
emptying the filter d. This prevents an unintended
starting of the motor.
When the extracted juices suddenly become thicker,
or when you hear that the motor is running slower,
the filter dmust be emptied. When you have removed
the fruit pulp/vegetable mash, reassemble the
appliance.
Disassembly of the juice extractor
