using your juicer

  1. Fit the pulp stopper (A) into the opening on the underside of the juicing bowl and push in until secure (B).
  2. Fit the juicing bowl to the power unit by aligning theon the side of the bowl with the on the power unit (C). To lock the bowl on turn it clockwise until the line up with the on the power unit (D)
  3. Place the filter basket into the wiper holder (E)
  4. Lower the wiper holder assembly into the juicing bowl and align the with theon the top of the power unit (F). Ensure that the filter basket is locked into place.
  5. Place the scroll into the filter basket and push down to secure (G).
    Note: the lid cannot be fitted if the scroll is not fully pushed down.
  6. Fit the lid onto the unit ensuring the lines up with theon top of the power unit (H). Then turn the lid clockwise until it clicks into place and the lines up with the on top of the power unit (I). Place the food pusher into the feed tube.
  7. Place the pulp container under the pulp spout and place the juice jug under the juice spout .Ensure the anti-drip stopper is in the open position (J) before juicing.
    •  There is a clip on sieve provided, this can be used if a smooth juice is preferred and should be emptied when full or after every 1kg of juicing. l
    • Use the recommended usage chart as a guide for juicing different fruits and vegetables.
  8. Switch on and feed the food items down slowly using the pusher. Note: The wiper holder is designed to rotate during operation.
    • To extract the maximum amount of juice, always| push the food down slowly using the pusher. Do not use excessive force as the food should be pulled down by the scroll.
    •  If the food becomes jammed in the feed tube or on the scroll and the juicer stops operating switch to the ‘O’ off position. Then press and hold the ‘R’ reverse button down until the food becomes dislodged. Once the food is released, you can
      start juicing again.
  9. After adding the last piece of food, allow the juicer to run to help clear the juice from the juicing bowl. The time will vary depending on the fruit type and thickness of the juice extracted.
  10.  Switch off and wait until the final flow of juice has reduced to a few slow drips. Then place the antidrip stopper in position (K) before removing the jug

juicer hints and tips

  • Wash all fruit and vegetable thoroughly before juicing.
  • To maximise juice extraction place small quantities at a time in the feed tube and push down slowly.
  •  Hard foods are best juiced at room temperature.
  • 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, melons and uncooked beetroots
  • Use fresh fruit and vegetables as they contain more juice
  • Remove stones and hard seeds from cherries, plums etc
  • Vitamins disappear – the sooner you drink your juice, the more vitamins you will get.
  • If you need to store the juice for a few hours put it in the fridge. It will keep better if you add a few drops of lemon juice.

Health Recommendations

  • Do not drink more than three 230mls (8 fl.oz.) glasses of juice a day unless you are used to it.
  •  Dilute juice for children with an equal amount of water.
  • Juice from dark green (broccoli, spinach etc.) or dark red (beetroot, red cabbage etc.) vegetables is extremely strong, so always dilute it.
  •  Fruit juice is high in Fructose (fruit sugar), so people with diabetes or low blood sugar should avoid drinking too much.

sorbet attachment (if supplied)

  •  Allow frozen food items to thaw for 5 to 10 minutes before processing. (The time required for thawing will depend how long ingredients have been stored in the freezer).
  1.  Assemble the parts as per ‘using your juicer’ section.
  2.  Fit the sorbet attachment  instead of the wiper holder and filter basket .
  3.  Ensure the anti-drip stopper is in the open position (J) before processing.
  4.  After the last piece of food has been added allow the flow from the juicer to stop before switching unit off.
sorbet attachment hints and tips
  • Remove hard skins and seeds from ingredients before freezing.
  • Cut whole fruits such as apples, oranges and kiwi to fit the feed tube before freezing. Freeze pieces in a single layer to prevent them from forming a solid mass.
  •  Ingredients that have formed a solid mass during freezing, break up before processing.
  • Process cubes of frozen yoghurt with your chosen fruit to produce a creamy ‘iced dessert’.
recommended usage chart
Fruit/Vegetable Preparation Hints and Tips
Apples Cut down to fit the feed tube. To maximise juice extraction hard foods are best juiced when at room temperature.
Carrots Cut down to fit the feed tube.
Pineapple Remove the leaves and stalks by slicing off the top and base. Cut into lengthwise pieces. To prevent the filter from clogging clean the filter after every large pineapple.
Seedless Grapes Remove stalks. Process small handfuls at a time to maximise juice extraction.
Tomatoes Cut down to fit the feed tube. A thick pulpy juice will be produced rather than a smooth juice.
Mangoes Remove tough skin and stones. The juice produced will be very thick.
Melons Remove tough skin.

Kiwi fruits Cut down to fit the feed tube.

Soft berries- (Raspberries, Blackberries etc.)  

 

Juice whole.

 

Process small handfuls at a time to maximise juice extraction.

Harder berries- (Cranberries etc.)
Beetroot (Raw) Remove leaves and peel.

Leafy Vegetables- spinach, kale, wheatgrass etc. Wrap leaves into a bunch.

Celery Juice whole.

Cucumber Cut down to fit the feed tube.

Citrus fruits- Oranges Peel and remove white pith.

Fruit with stones or hard seeds (Nectarines, Plums, Cherries etc.) Remove the stones or hard seeds before juicing.

Pomegranates Open the fruit by scoring the outside skin and breaking apart. Submerge in a large bowl of cold water and remove the seeds from the pulp (this helps to separate the seeds as they will sink to the bottom of the bowl and the white pulp will float to the top).

care and cleaning

  • Always switch off, unplug and take the juicer apart before cleaning.
  •  Some discolouration of parts may occur upon using ingredients such as carrot or leafy vegetables. Cleaning all parts immediately after each use will help to reduce stains.
  •  Do not clean the pulp or filter outlet with a sharp pointed object such as the end of a knife as you will damage the bowl. Use the tip of the cleaning brush handle to clean the outlets.

power unit

  •  Wipe with a damp cloth, then dry.
  •  Do not immerse in water.

filter

  • To assist with removal of pulp and fibres, place the anti-drip stopper in the closed position. Switch the juicer on and pour approximately 300mls water down the feed tube. Operate the juicer for approximately 20 seconds, place the juice jug under the juice spout and open the stopper to allow the water to flow out.
  • Always clean the filter basket immediately after juicing.
  •  Use the brush supplied to clean the filter. For best results, rinse under water and brush until clear.

wiper holder

  •  The wipers in the filter holder can be removed for cleaning (L). To assemble, Insert the upper/lower wipers into the gap of the filter holder and secure (M). Ensure that the wipers are replaced and fitted correctly before assembling the juicer.
The dishwasher safe parts can be washed on the top rack of your dishwasher.
