Safety feature

This appliance is fitted with a safety feature which safeguards
against overheating due to excessive loads. In case of overheating,
the juicer automatically activates the overload protection and
switches itself off. If this occurs, set the control knob to 0, unplug
the appliance and let it cool down for 15 minutes. Remove the juice
jug and detach the lid, the juice collector and the pulp container
and then press the overload protection button on the bottom of the
motor unit.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all applicable standards and
regulations regarding exposure to electromagnetic fields.

Before first use

Thoroughly clean the parts that come into contact with food before
you use the appliance for the first time (see chapter ‘Cleaning’).

Note

-

Always check the sieve before use. If you detect any cracks or
damage, do not use the appliance.

-

Make sure the locking arm is locked into position.

Using the appliance

Juicing

You can use the juicer to produce fruit, vegetable and green juice.

Tips

-

Do not operate the juicer for more than 60 seconds at a time
when you juice heavy loads and let it cool down sufficiently
afterwards.

-

Before you start juicing make sure that the spout is in correct
juice position, the opening of the spout should point downwards.

-

To avoid splashing of juice, place the juice jug with properly
assembled juice jug lid below the spout.

-

Turn the control knob to setting 1 (low speed) or 2 (normal speed).

-

Speed 1 is especially suitable for soft fruits and vegetables such
as watermelons, grapes, tomatoes and cucumbers.

-

Speed 2 is suitable for all other kinds of fruit and vegetables such
as apples, carrots and beetroots.

Note

-

Always switch on the device and be sure it is running at full
speed before you insert fruits or vegetables into the feeding tube.

-

Do not exert too much pressure on the pusher, as this could
affect the quality of the end result. It could even cause the sieve
to come to a halt.

-

Never insert your fingers or an object into the feeding tube.

-

If the pulp container becomes full during use, switch off the
appliance and detach the lid and the juice collector. Then
carefully remove the pulp container and empty it.

-

For optimal performance clean the unit (lid, sieve, pulp container)
after each jug of juice.

Drip Stop

-

After you have processed all ingredients and the juice flow has
stopped, turn the spout clockwise by about 120° to activate the
drip stop function.

Empty the pulp container

Note: When the pulp container has reached its maximum capacity,

pulp ends up in the juice collector, lid and in the juice.

If the pulp container becomes overfilled, the appliance may become
blocked. When this occurs, switch off the appliance and remove the
pulp from the pulp container. Let the appliance cool down for 15
minutes and press the overload protection button on the bottom of
the motor unit to reset.
The transparent pulp container helps you to see when the pulp
container is full. Also check the level indication on the juice jug.
When the pulp reaches the level of the juice collector, the pulp
container needs to be emptied.

Tips

Preparations

-

Use fresh fruit and vegetables, as they contain more juice.
Pineapples, beetroots, celery stalks, apples, cucumbers, carrots,
spinach, melons, tomatoes, oranges and grapes are particularly
suitable for processing in the juicer.

-

The juicer is not suitable for processing very hard and/or fibrous
or starchy fruits or vegetables such as sugar cane.

-

Leaves and leaf stalks of e.g. lettuce can also be processed in the
juicer. To get most out of your leafy greens, roll them up before
juicing and juice the greens in-between hard fruits like apples or
carrots.

-

Remove stones from cherries, plums, peaches, etc. You do not
have to remove cores or seeds from fruits like melons, apples and
grapes.

-

When you use the juicer, 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, kiwis, melons, pomegranates and
uncooked beetroots.

-

When you prepare apple juice, take into consideration that the
thickness of the apple juice depends on the kind of apple you
use. The juicier the apple, the thinner the juice. Choose a kind of
apple that produces the type of juice you prefer.

-

If you want to process citrus fruits with the juicer, remove the peel
as well as the white pith. The white pith gives juice a bitter taste.

-

Fruits that contain starch, such as bananas, papayas, avocados,
figs and mangoes are not suitable for processing in the juicer. Use
a food processor, blender or hand blender to process these fruits.

-

To extract the maximum amount of juice, always press down the
pusher slowly.

Serving

-

Drink the juice immediately after you have extracted it.

-

If you want clear juice without a foam layer, put the lid with
integrated foam separator on the juice jug. If you want cloudy
juice with a foam layer, remove the lid with integrated foam
separator from the juice jug and stir the juice before you pour it in
a glass.

-

Apple juice turns brown very quickly. To slow down this process,
add a few drops of lemon juice.

-

When you serve cold drinks, add a few ice cubes.

Cleaning

Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive

liquids such as alcohol, petrol or acetone to clean the appliance.

The appliance is easier to clean if you do so immediately after use.
To keep your kitchen clean, all detachable parts (pulp container, juice
collector, sieve and lid) can be carried to the sink in one go.

Tip: Use a sponge to clean the sieve.

Pre-clean function

When you use the pre-clean function, the lid and the sieve are
rinsed with water.
Use speed 2 for the pre-clean function to achieve the best results.
Use the pre-clean function:

-

To make the juicer easier to clean.

-

To rinse the juicer when you switch to a different fruit or
vegetable and want to avoid mixing flavours.

-

To dilute the juice with water and catch even the last drop of
juice.

Storage

To store the cord, wind it round the cord storage facility in the base
of the appliance.

Caution: Do not hold the appliance by the locking arm or spout

when you carry it.
