Before assembling the appliance, make sure that the power cord is disconnected from the wall outlet.

How to use a slow-speed juicer

• Expand the power cord, place the body of the appliance on a stable, dry and flat surface.
• The order of assembly of individual components is shown on Fig. 2a.
• Make sure that the rubber protective buffer is fixed on the pulp outlet hole at the bottom of the separator container (Fig. 2b).
• Make sure that the separator container gasket (Fig. 2i) and the juice outlet plug gasket (Fig. 2j) have been installed correctly.
• Place the separator container on the appliance body (Fig. 2a, item 1) in such a manner that the two ridges in the body fit into the grooves in the bottom of the separator container (Fig. 2c, item 2). Make sure that the components are properly connected.
• Connect the stainless steel filter with a juice scraper (Fig. 2d).
• Put the two-element unit (filter and scraper) inside the separator container (Fig. 2f), bearing in mind that there is a socket inside the container (partially covered by the protective buffer), which should fit the edging in the filter (Fig. 2e, item 1). Make sure that the components are properly connected (Fig. 2f).
• Insert the worm shaft in the separator container unit along with other fitted components (Fig. 2f). Make sure that the worm shaft is properly secured on the drive shaft. Otherwise, the container will not close.

To turn off the motor, press the “Stop” button (Fig. 3, item 4).
Hold down the “Long press to reverse” button for 2-5 seconds (Fig. 3, item 3) to change the direction of rotation. This mode is used only when the products used are jammed in the shaft. To return to normal operating mode, press “Juicing”.
The „Mixing” button (Fig. 3, item 2) activates the mixing function.
Juicing function

Put the prepared products in the hopper and start the appliance by pressing the “Juicing” button on the control panel (Fig. 3, item 1).

While operating in the juicing function, juice outlet plug must open at all times. Failure to do so will result in juice staying in the appliance, which may lead to overflow, and consequently to the appliance failure.

• When the appliance is in operation, put in products of suitable size through the inlet hole (cut larger fruits or vegetables into smaller pieces), and press products with the pusher. Within seconds the juice will start to flow, and the pulp will be pushed into the pulp container through the outlet. Do not press the product too hard with the pusher, this may result in stopping the drive shaft.
• If the appliance jams during operation and stops working, turn it off with the “Stop” button (Fig. 3, item 4), and then press and hold the “Long press to reverse” (Fig. 3, item 3) for 3-5 seconds. After a complete stop of the shaft try to restart the appliance. If necessary, repeat this process 2-3 times. If the appliance still operates improperly, turn it off, disconnect from the mains, dismantle and remove the products from inside the appliance.
• When the juice vessel or pulp container is full, switch off the appliance and empty the containers.

Mixing function-extraction and mixing different kinds of juice

• Close the juice outlet plug.
• Start juicing as described in section Juicing function -put in products in random order.
• Ensure that the level of juice in the separator container did not exceed the marked level of 450 ml.

While using mixing function, the juice outlet plug must be closed.
The extracted and mixed juice level in the separator container must not exceed the maximum marked level. Exceeding the maximum level could lead to overflowing, and consequently to the appliance failure.

• Press the “Mixing” button (Fig. 3, item 2) to mix all kinds of juices.
• Open the juice outlet plug to empty the separator container.
• When the juice vessel or pulp container is full, switch off the appliance and empty the containers.

Never use hands or items not suitable for the appliance to push the products in hopper (for example, a tablespoon). Only use the pusher supplied with the appliance. After processing all products, switch off the appliance with the “Stop” button and pull out the plug from the wall outlet.
The maximum time of continuous operation is 20 minutes. After this time, turn off the appliance and wait until the motor temperature reaches room temperature. Longer continuous use of the appliance may lead to motor damage. Intervals between operating cycles should be a minimum of 30 minutes.

  Attaching the separator container gasket (Fig. 2j)

• Hold the gasket in such a way that its ring was directed upwards.

• Insert the gasket in the groove of the gasket in the separator container.

• If the separator container gasket is not properly fitted, fit it correctly using for example the brush supplied.

OPERATION, CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Practical everyday tips

• Use fresh products as they have the most juice. Food products such as pineapple, beetroot, celery stalks, apples, cucumbers, carrots, spinach, melon, tomato, pomegranate, citrus and seedless grapes are particularly suitable for processing in the appliance.
• You do not have to remove thin peel from products, peel off thick peel from products such as oranges, pineapple, uncooked beetroot. Also remove white flesh found directly under the peel of citrus, it has a bitter taste.
• When preparing apple juice, remember that the type of apples affects density of the juice. Apple juice goes brown fast, to reduce this effect, add a few drops of lemon juice to the juice. This will slow down juice browning.
• Products such as bananas, papayas, avocados, figs or mangoes are not suitable for processing in the appliance. It is recommended to use a hand blender or a food processor for processing this type of fruit.
• Stalks and leaves (for example, lettuce or cabbage) may also be processed in the appliance.
• The produced juice should be consumed as soon as possible. The juice loses its original taste and nutritional value in prolonged contact with air.
• To obtain as much juice out of the products as possible, slowly press the products with a pusher.
• The appliance is not suitable for processing hard, fibrous and/or starchy products, such as sugar cane.
• It is not recommended to reprocess the extracted pulp. This causes dense pulp clot in the juice outlet.
• Density of the juice is affected by the type of processed food

Cleaning

• Before cleaning the appliance, make sure that it is in complete stop and disconnect it from the mains. Furthermore, it must cool down completely.
• Wipe the appliance body with a damp cloth and then dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the body in water or any other liquid.
• Wash other attachments in warm water with mild detergent, preferably immediately after finishing work. This will facilitate removing the food residues.
• Certain parts of the appliance can be washed in the dishwasher (maximum washing temperature is 45OC).
• To clean the filter, use the supplied brush (Fig. 1, item 8).
• Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaning agents.
• In order to thoroughly wash the pulp outlet, pull out the rubber protective buffer from the pulp outlet in the separator container, and then clean the outlet with a brush (Fig 2i, 2j).
• Before cleaning the juice scraper, remover silicone brushes (Fig. 2k). Secure them back in place after cleaning (Fig. 2l).
• Dry all parts and assemble the appliance.
• Store the appliance in a dry place. Juice container can be stored in the pulp container

Be careful when cleaning the filter as it may cause cuts.
Types of strainers and their applications (Fig. 4)
Fine strainer (Fig. 4, item A) — use it for hard and/or fibrous food products. The juice squeezed using this strainer is clearer.
Coarse strainer (Fig. 4, item B) — use it for soft fruits such as strawberries, kiwi or tomatoes. Do not use this strainer for juicing fruits with small seeds. The juice squeezed using this strainer is thick.
