Cleaning the Juicer
warnIng: Do noT immerse the motor base or power cord in any liquids. Do not spill
any liquids on the motor base or power cord. Do noT place the motor base or power
cord in an automatic dishwasher!
Beware of the sharp cutting blades in the filter basket and feed chute. Do not touch the
blades when handling the filter basket. Only grasp the filter basket on the rim.
noTe: If pulp is left to dry on the filter basket, it may clog the fine mesh of the filter basket
and, as a result, decreasing the juicer's performance. To assist cleaning, soak the filter
basket in hot soapy water for about 10 minutes immediately after juicing.
Discoloration of plastic parts may occur when processing strongly coloured fruits and vege-
tables. However, this will not affect the juicer's performance. To prevent any discoloration,
rinse the removable parts of the appliance immediately after use with clear water.
1. Disassemble the appliance according to the upper instructions (see ›Disassembling the
Juicer‹).
CauTIon: Never use abrasive cleaners, cleaning pads or any sharp objects (i.e. metal
scouring pads) for cleaning because this could damage the surfaces. Carefully clean the
appliance with a damped sponge or cloth and warm soapy water.
For convenience, juice collector and filter basket, juicer cover, food pusher and pulp/juice
container may be cleaned in an automatic dishwasher (max. 60 ° C).
Do noT place the motor base or power cord in an automatic dishwasher!
Always handle the appliance and any part of it with care and without violation.
2. Place the filter basket in hot soapy water for about 10 minutes to soak dried pulp.
Wash any removable parts (food pusher, juicer cover, filter basket, juice collector,
juice and pulp container) in warm washing-up liquid. To clean the filter basket we
recommend to use a fine nylon washing brush. Grasp the filter basket on the rim,
place it under running water and brush the filter mesh carefully from the inside of
the basket out. Always treat the filter basket with care, because it can be damaged
easily. Clean the plastic parts of the appliance using a soft cloth or sponge.
3. Rinse all removable parts thoroughly under running water.
4. Wipe the motor base with a damp soft cloth or sponge. Take care not to spill or drip
water or any other liquids on the motor base.
5. Thoroughly dry the motor base and all parts of the appliance after each cleaning
and, for some minutes, leave all parts dry naturally. Always keep the appliance and
all parts of it out of reach of young children.
6. To prevent the parts of the appliance from damage and being lost, reassemble the
appliance for storage (see ›Assembling the Juicer‹).
