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, pine-
apples, pears, peeled citrus fruits, watermelon,
cucumbers, tomatoes, etc.
3. Peel fruit and vegetables with a firm skin
before pressing. Think of mango, melon,
pineapple, citrus fruit, etc.
4. Remove large and hard seeds before pressing
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 pressed into the fruit. Remove these if
necessary before pressing.
6. The amount of juice and the consistency
of the pressed 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 oxidation
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.

to clear the press chamber of any blockages.
When the chamber is free, the Start/Stop
button can be pressed again to stop this
function.
8. Juicer as they 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 Smart Slow Juicer. Before you start
pressing, peel and cut these into 3 to 5
centimeter long pieces.
10. Tough vegetables with long stalks like celery
can also be pressed, but cut them into 3 to 5
cm long pieces before pressing.
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 constipation.
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 Smart Slow Juicer becomes clogged,
clear by using the auto reverse button. If this
fails, disassemble and clear the Smart Slow
Juicer of the blockage before continuing to
press.
Cleaning, maintenance and storage
1. Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
2. Clean the appliance and rinse the removable
parts carefully and immediately after each
use to prevent ingredients from drying out
and sticking.
3. The Smart Slow Juicer housing (motor part)
must never be submerged in, or cleaned
with, water or other liquids. Use a slightly
damp cloth or sponge to clean the housing.
4. Always store the device in a clean and dry
place.
5. Disassemble and clean the Smart Slow
Juicer as follows after each use:
5.1 Close the drip stop of the juice spout and
pour a small amount of water into the
machine through the input nozzle. Now run
the machine for a few minutes and, after
switching it off, run the liquid through the
juice spout. In this way, part of the fibres
and residues of the ingredients will be
soaked and flushed, which makes cleaning
the appliance easier.
5.2 We recommend using the reverse button at
the end of pressing and letting the press
screw turn the other way for 2-3 seconds.
This will make disassembly easier. Now stop
the machine and remove the plug from the
socket.
AUTO REVERSE
5.3 Turn the hopper counter-clockwise to unlock
and remove the upper part completely. The
hopper can now be removed from the press
chamber.
5.4 Remove the press
screw with a vertical
movement.If the press
screw is difficult to
remove, remove it
together with the
plastic filter (see next
step).
5.5 Take out the
plastic filter.
