PREPARATION
To start operating the juice extractor, proceed as follows:
Remove the appliance from its packaging and place it on a surface that is as horizontal as
possible.
Check that the electricity voltage is within the limits indicated on the machine characte-
ristics label which can be found on the cover of this manual and on the machine itself.
Place the feeder ramp on the machine as shown in Fig. 1
Plug the cable supplied with the machine into a standard socket with a ground connec-
tion, Fig. 2
Before using the machine, install the tap tting as shown in gures 3 and 4. Remove the
jug, open the top cover and remove the juice container. The tap tting and push button
are inside the jug. Take out both parts and install the tap. Keep the button for future use.
Replace the container, close the cover and replace the jug in the machine, in that order.
Check that the cover, juice container and peel container are properly inserted in place, as
otherwise the machine safety sensors will not allow it to be started.
OPERATION
Once the appliance is plugged into the mains at the correct voltage, activate the switch at
the rear of the machine (Fig. 2), and it will be ready to operate.
The machine operates as follows: the oranges on the ramp are automatically introduced
into the extractor system, where they are cut in half and then the juice is extracted by the
drums. Then the juice is deposited in the container or juice jug and the peel in the peel
container.

Remember: Use fruit with a diameter of no more than 80 mm
(Preferably between 65 and 78 mm).

Place the oranges for squeezing on the ramp.
Press the ON/OFF button at the front of the machine (Fig. 5), and the unit will
automatically start up the extraction process. This process may be interrupted at any
time by pressing that button again. The machine will also stop automatically a few
seconds after it detects there are no oranges.
The dispenser and anti-drip tap allow you to work with the jug inserted in the
machine or with a glass. If working with the jug (Fig. 6A), on extracting the juice, it will
fall into the jug. If you want to serve the juice directly into a glass, remove the jug
and the juice will fall into the juice container. Place the glass under the tap and press
it down (Fig. 6B) to activate the tap. The juice will stop falling as soon as you remove
your nger from the tap. If you wish, you can work with the push button instead of
the jug. Connect the button as indicated in Figure 7. To remove the juice that has
fallen inside the container, push the platform with glass inward, or press the button
ap while you hold the glass (Fig. 6C).
OPERATING MODES AND INFORMATION DISPLAY
The machine may be in the following three operating modes. Depending on the mode
in question, the display will show the following information:
Normal operating mode: The machine is operating or ready to operate. The following
appears on the display:
Safety stop mode: The machine has automatically stopped or does not start because
one of the 3 elements affecting safe operation is missing (cover, juice container or peel
container) or because they are not correctly positioned.

NOTE: The values of the rst 2 digits give additional information that may be
useful for the machine After-sales service.
The last 2 digits of the 4 on the bottom line give information about the status of each
of those elements. These digits may have the value “0” or “1”; value “0” indicates that
the element in question is correctly position, and “1” indicates that it is missing or not
correctly positioned.

Cover and peel container (not correctly positioned)
To prevent accidents, do not tamper with the machine to try and make it work
without the safety elements. There are three elements that act on the safety
sensors: the cover, the juice container and the peel container. The safety sensors
must be tested regularly to ensure they operate correctly. To do this, start
the machine and while it is operating, remove one of these elements to see
whether the machine stops. Put it back in place and repeat the test with the
other elements. If during any of the tests, the machine does not stop, notify the
Technical Service.
Alarms mode: The machine has automatically stopped or does not work for some
reason. When this occurs, the display will show the origin through the following alarm
codes:
1Voltage alarm 5Current alarm (thermal)
2Mean current alarm 6Short circuit current alarm
3Tipping device lock alarm 7Miscellaneous alarms
4IA lock alarm

To restart the machine after a safety stop or following an alarm, eliminate the cause
(remove jammed oranges,...) and restore the safety elements (cover, juice container or
peel container). After doing this, press the ON/OFF button and the machine will start
the extraction cycle.
If the blade assembly has been dismantled to eliminate a blockage and you nd it
difcult to reassemble, this is because the machine must be in the start position
to perform the mounting operation. To put it at that position, keep the ON/OFF
button pressed (with the containers and cover correctly positioned) until the
machine stops, and then you can assemble the blade unit with no problem and
continue operating.
If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cable or unit
supplied by the manufacturer or ofcial dealer.

CLEANING
Zumex recommends cleaning the machine at least once or twice a day, depending on
how much it is used in order to maintain optimal food hygiene conditions.
The following are the steps for correctly cleaning the juice extractor:
With the machine stopped, unplug it from the mains by pulling out the pin (not
the cable).
Dismantle the front cover (Fig. 8).
Dismantle the unit composed by twirler blade and support (Fig. 9) turning
the selector clockwise to position and pull gently towards you.
For more thorough cleaning, separate the parts as follows:
• After removing the unit from the machine, turn the selector to position to
remove the blade block.
• To remove the twirler blade, move the blade to a vertical position until the ▼
mark on the blade and support coincide. In this position it should come away
easily.

Warning! Handle this part with
care to avoid cuts. The support,
twirler blade and blade block unit
must always be assembled and
dismantled as one piece.

Dismantling the
tipping blade

Remove the peel ejector from its holder, unscrew the wheels and dismantle the
extraction drums (Fig. 10).
Dismantle the peel container and jug (Fig. 11).
Dismantle the juice container and its lter, and then dismantle the drip tray
(Fig. 12).
Dismantle the dispenser with the anti-drip tap as shown in gure A. After
dismantling the tap, it can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher. It is not
advisable to put the tap and container unit into the dishwasher without
separating them, as the water will not reach the inside of the tap and clean it
properly.
From time to time, dismantle the tap as shown in B to ensure more exhaustive
cleaning. If the mobile part is stuck due to accumulated dry juice, proceed as
indicated in gures C and D.
• All the parts can be put in the dishwasher EXCEPT THE CONTAINER.
• To clean the extraction zone and the container, use a soft cloth dampened in water
and a detergent that is suitable for use washing dishes.
• Then rinse with running water to remove all traces of soap.
• After clearing the machine, reassemble all the elements in the reverse order
followed for dismantling them. Check that all the parts are properly assembled and
secured.
REMEMBER
Do not put the container in the dishwasher. To clean it use a soft cloth dampened
with water and a detergent that is suitable for washing dishes. Never use abrasive
products or lime-scale removers.
When replacing the peel ejector (Fig. 10), make sure it ts into its holder or pivots
correctly and that the ejector blade enters the male extractor drum groove as far as it
can go.

• To replace the blade holder unit, rst insert the interior part of it, ensuring that it
enters as far as it can go and then insert the clip on the external part (See gure 9). If
you nd it difcult to replace, the machine might have stopped halfway through a
cycle. Keep the ON/OFF pressed (with the containers and cover correctly positioned)
until the machine stops and you will then be able to assemble the blade unit with no
difculty and carry on operating.
• Do not forget to clean the fruit feeding area regularly (Fig. 1), as otherwise a waxy
layer could form that is very difcult to remove. To do this proceed as follows:
Unplug the machine from the mains.
Dismantle the ramp by pulling it upwards, it is only inserted (Fig. 1).
Dismantle the feeder tube by pulling it in the indicated direction (Fig. 13).
If it is very dirty, dismantle the counterweight and dispenser (Fig. 13).
Wipe the whole cavity with a cloth dampened with water and detergent that
is suitable for washing dishes. Clean the dismantled parts and then rinse with
running water to remove all traces of soap.
Assemble the parts in reverse order of assembly.
