Introduction The units have a smooth surface with no grooves and rough edges and can be cleaned easily after use. The current Interest in fresh and unprocessed food is the reason for fresh fruit and vegetable juices to become a favorite component of our daily food and wellbalanced diet. The provided pulp container finishes with the juice run-out and therefore eliminates any splatter during operation.
Gastroback recommends safety first • Do not use the appliance if it is damaged or units of the appliance are damaged. Do not use the appliance if it does not function properly or if it was excessively loaded. The appliance is likely damaged if the appliance or units of the appliance show cracks, exorbitant wearing down, alterations or leaks. It is also likely damaged if the drive wheel of the motor block moves slowly.
Important Safeguards for all Electrical Appliances Movable and sharp-edged units – risk of injury • The blades on the base of the stainless steel micro mesh filter and inside the feed chute are very sharp. Pay attention when handling the units. Only touch the stainless steel micro mesh filter on the edge and handle with care when cleaning with the nylon bristle brush. Only store the appliance completely assembled. This way the blades will be out of reach.
Assembling your Design Juicer Step 1: Place the filter bowl surround on the motor block (picture 1). Step 2: WARNING: Handle the units with care and do not use any force. Pay attention to the sharp blades on the stainless steel micro mesh filter and the feed chute to avoid injury. Always completely assemble your juicer before you plug the plug into the power point. 1 ATTENTION: Ensure the stainless steel filter basket is clean before assembling.
Assembling your Design Juicer Step 4: Raise the safety locking arm straight up and lock into the two grooves on either side of the juicer cover. The safety locking arm should now be in a vertical position and locked into place on top of the juicer cover (picture 4). IMPORTANT: If the safety locking arm is not in the right position the motor will not start moving. 4 Secure the safety arm by lifting it into the two grooves of the cover (picture 4a).
Assembling your Design Juicer Slide the food pusher all the way down the feed chute (picture 5a). 5a Step 6: Place the pulp container into position by tilting the motor base slightly to the right. Insert the container under the juicer cover on the left-hand side ensuring it is supported by the container support extending from under the motor base (picture 6). NOTE: To minimise cleaning, line the pulp container with a plastic freezer bag to collect the pulp.
Operating your Design Juicer Step1: Wash your selection of fruit and vegetables before juicing. Step 5: Juice will flow into the jug and the separated pulp will accumulate in the integrated pulp container. NOTE: Most fruit and vegetables such as small apples, carrots and cucumber will not need to be cut to size as these will fit into the feed chute whole. When juicing carrots place the tip of the carrot into the feed chute last.
Disassembling your Design Juicer WARNING: Always turn the appliance ‘OFF’ and pull the plug when the appliance is not in use or when disassembling, moving or cleaning the appliance. Never let water or other liquids run into the motor block. Never clean the line cord or the motor block in the dishwasher, poor liquids over the appliance or douse or dip it in water or other liquids. Step 1: Push the ‘ON/OFF’ button on the juicer to ‘OFF’ and then switch ‘OFF’ at the power outlet and unplug.
Disassembling your Design Juicer Step 5: Remove the filter bowl surround with the stainless steel filter basket still in place. To remove the filter bowl turn the spout to the left side. The filter bowl surround will automatically get loose (picture 5). 5 Step 6: WARNING: The stainless steel filter basket contains small sharp blades to cut and process fruit and vegetables. Do not touch blades when handling the filter basket. Only touch the filter basket on the sides.
Care and Cleaning minutes immediately after juicing is completed. If pulp dehumidifies on the micro mesh filter it may clog the fine pores of the micro mesh filter thereby lessening the effectiveness of the juicer. Using the cleaning brush, hold the filter basket under running water and brush from the inside of the basket to the outer rim. Avoid touching the small sharp blades in the centre of the filter basket.
Trouble Shooting Guide Possible problem Easy solution Machine will not work when switched ´ON´ The safety locking arm may not be correctly engaged in the vertical operating position with the locking arm located into the two grooves on either side of the juicer cover (regard ´Assembling the appliance)`. Motor appears to stall when juicing Wet pulp can build up under the cover if the juicing action is too vigorous. Try slower juicing action by pushing the food pusher down more slowly.
Tips on juicing The inside information on juicing Although juice drinks are usually developed with flavour, texture and aroma at the forefront, the health benefits certainly add to the pleasurable taste experience. 95% of the nutrient content of fruit and vegetables is found in the juice. Liquids extracted from fresh fruit and vegetables form an important part of a wellbalanced diet. Fresh fruit and vegetable juices are an easy to make source of vitamins and minerals.
The right technique and vegetables. All fruit and vegetables produce different amounts of liquids. This varies within the same group i.e. one batch of tomatoes can produce more juice than another batch. Since juice recipes are not exact, the precise quantities of any juice are not crucial to the success of a particular mixture. When juicing a variety of ingredients with varying textures start with the softer textured ingredients then change to for harder texture ingredients.
