• Never insert the plug into the power supply socket with wet
hands.
• Only connect the appliance to an earthed power supply socket.
• The input voltage of the appliance is 230V and 50/60Hz. Before
using the device make sure that the power source meets the
requirements. Insufficient or wrong power supply may damage
the device.
• When the appliance is not in use, unplug it from the wall outlet.
• To avoid damage to components, breakage and fire, do not
place the unit near heat sources, sources of high magnetic
fields, flammable or highly flammable gas sources, gas stoves
or ovens.
• Do not place the removable parts of the Slow juicer in a dish-
washer and do not use water with a temperature of 60°C or
higher for cleaning to avoid deformation.
• The appliance is not suitable for use by children or people with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or with lack of
experience and knowledge for their own safety, even if they are
supervised or instructed in the use of the appliance.
• Before each use, check the machine for damages to the power
cable, plug, press screw or other parts. If any damage is found,
stop using the machine immediately and contact an official
repair or service centre. Do not attempt to repair any damage
yourself.
• Unplug the machine before removing any detachable parts and
before cleaning the machine. This is to prevent the risk of short
circuit and electrical shock.
• Before connecting the appliance to a power supply, make sure
the appliance is correctly assembled.
• Do not use the machine without ingredients to prevent damage
to the moving parts of the unit.
• The machine should be placed on a horizontal and stable
surface. To prevent damage to the machine, do not place it on a
sloping surface, carpet, textile, plastic, paper, or flammable
materials.
• The unit is equipped with an overload and damage preventive
protection system. This switches the machine off automatically
after 15 minutes of continuous use. Unplug the machine and
wait at least 20 minutes after an automatic switch-off before
resuming pressing to allow the machine to cool down.
• If the squeeze chamber becomes overloaded or obstructed
during working, the machine will stop automatically and resume
working automatically after a few seconds. If the machine stops
again after this, use the reverse function to clear the chamber.
If this does not work, switch off, unplug the machine, clean the
machine and remove the ingredients before continuing with the
squeezing.
• If the machine beeps after starting or during operation and the
control buttons do not work, unplug it and disassemble, clean
the chamber and restart it according to the instructions. If the
problem persists, contact the manufacturer, the nearest service
agent or a qualified person.
• All parts of the machine that come into contact with food during
squeezing are certified to contact with food. Plastic parts which
come into contact with food such as carrots and beets may
become discolored. This phenomenon is normal and not harmful
to your health.
• Clean the removable parts immediately after each use of the
unit. Be careful when cleaning the parts to avoid damage or
injury.
• Do not use abrasive, corrosive, strong, or aggressive detergents
to clean the unit or its parts. Do not heat, wash in a dishwasher
or clean at temperatures or agents higher than 60°C.
• Standby mode: When the device has not been used for more
than 5 minutes, it automatically switches to standby mode to
save energy consumption.
• This device is intended for domestic use and similar applica-
tions. Do not use the device outdoors.
• Store and operate the unit only in dry and ventilated areas and
not in an ambient temperature below 5°C or a relative humidity
above 80%.
• Repairs and maintenance on the appliance should only be
carried out by authorized service agent.
• Pack and protect the unit carefully during transport and storage.
Important guidelines for safe slow juicing
• For efficient and safe operation of the appliance, it is recom-
mended to cut the ingredients into smaller pieces before
processing. It is recommended to cut harder and tough pieces of
fruits and vegetables smaller than 5 × 5 cm and to add and
squeeze them one by one.
• Fruits and vegetables that contain no juice or virtually no juice
such as banana and avocado are not suitable for juicing.
• Peel ginger and cut it into pieces of approximately 4 cm before
processing in order to prevent damage to the appliance.
• Fruits with pips and large hard seeds (plums, peaches, grapes,
kakis, apricots, mangoes, etc.) as well as fruits with firm skin
(citrus fruits, mango, etc.) may cause clogging, overload and
damage the juicer. Carefully remove pits, seeds and peels before
processing to prevent damage to the appliance.
• The machine is not suitable for processing coconut, sugarcane
and other fibrous foods.
• Peel citrus fruits before squeezing them.
IMPORTANT
Clean the fruit carefully and cut it into smaller pieces prior to
processing so that the squeezing screw can feed and squeez-
ing it properly. If pieces remain in the hopper, use only the
provided pusher to push them towards the squeezing screw. If
ingredients are stuck so tightly that they cannot be pushed
through with the pusher, use the reverse function to rotate
in the opposite direction. If the ingredients continue to block
the Slow juicer, unplug and remove the hard pieces.
Practical tips for the best results
1. Wash fruit and (leafy) vegetables carefully before each use.
2. Use fresh fruits and vegetables with a high juice content for best results.
Highly juiced fruits and vegetables include apples, pineapples, pears, peeled
citrus fruits, watermelon, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc.
3. Peel fruit and vegetables with a firm skin before processing. Such as mango,
melon, pineapple, citrus fruit, etc.
4. Remove large and hard seeds before processing to prevent damage to the
appliance. For example, the seeds of mangoes, cherries, plums, apricots, etc.
5. Juice can taste bitter when many small seeds are squeezed into the fruit.
Remove these if necessary before processing.
6. The amount of juice and the consistency of the squeezed juice can vary; this
is a normal phenomenon and depends on the ingredients used and the
season.
7. Freshly squeezed apple juice can turn brown relatively quickly due to oxida-
tion by exposure to oxygen. This can be delayed by adding some lime or
lemon (juice) to the freshly squeezed juice during or immediately after
pressing.
8. Do not process these fruits/vegetables which contain virtually no juice.
Examples are potatoes, bananas, papaya, avocado, figs, etc. These are
however very suitable to be mixed through the juice with a blender or hand
blender.
9. With proper preparation, high-fiber ingredients like ginger can also be juiced
in the Slow juicer. Before you start processing, peel and cut these into 3 to 5
centimeter long pieces.
10. Tough vegetables with long stalks like celery can also be processed, but cut
them into 3 to 5cm long pieces before processing.
11. Squeeze leafy vegetables such as kale in smaller amounts and alternate
with juice-rich foods such as apple to promote the flow of juice and prevent
blockages.
12. For harder fruit or fruit with a lower juice content, also squeeze fruit with a
high juice content in between. This will stimulate the flow of juice. For
example, combine pieces of apple or carrot with pieces of mango or orange.
13. If the Slow juicer becomes clogged, clear it by using the auto reverse
button. If this fails, disassemble and clear the Slow juicer of the blockage
before continuing to press.
