The current interest in fresh and unprocessed food is the reason for fresh fruit and vegetable
juices to become a favourite component of our daily food and well balanced diet.
The Design Juicer Pro has a special designed large feed chute, a 3 litre pulp container,
a big juice jug and a stainless steel titanium reinforced micro mesh filter. It operates with
a high performance 950 watt motor which makes the juice production easy and efficient.
The parts have a smooth surface with no grooves and rough edges and can be cleaned easily after use. The provided juice jug finishes with the juice run-out and therefore eliminates
any splatter during operation. It has a volumetric capacity of 1,000 ml and a nice grip for
easy and comfortable handling.
Please read all the advice and instructions with care and keep the manual. Only use the
appliance to process fresh food.

Important Instructions
• Never leave the appliance unattended when in operational mode.
• Always make sure the appliance is properly and completely assembled before connecting
to power outlet and operating. The unit will not turn ›on‹ unless properly assembled.
• Do not let the motor run permanently for longer then 7 minutes to avoid overheating.
• Do not operate the appliance continuously on heavy loads for more than 10 seconds.
If this is the case the motor slows down because the appliance is overloaded or the fruit
chunks are too big. Cut the fruit in smaller pieces and try smaller amounts at one time. To
continue juicing turn the appliance off and then on again. (None of the recipes in this book
are considered a heavy load.)
• ATTENTION: Extra wide feed chute. Never put fingers, wooden spoons or other foreign
substance (such as hair, clothing, brushes, cloths) into the feed chute when the appliance is
plugged into the power point. Do not
other foreign substances. Always use the food pusher provided. Always turn the appliance
off, wait for the motor to stop moving and then pull the plug before taking off the lid of the
juicer.
• Do not push products into the feed chute with your fingers or foreign objects. Always
use the food pusher provided.
• Never hold your face or other body parts over the feed chute when the motor is running
because little pieces of food could be thrown out of the feed chute.

CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING: Always ensure that the juicer is switched off at the power outlet. Then remove
the plug from the power outlet before cleaning, dissembling and storing the appliance. Do
not immerse the motor base in water or any other liquid. Do not use water jet to clean the
motor base. Do not clean the motor base in the dishwasher.
The centre of the filter basket and feed chute contain small sharp blades to process fruit
and vegetables during the juicing function. Do not touch blades when handling the filter
basket or feed chute.
ATTENTION: Abrasive and strong cleaner damage the surface of the plastic parts and
could cause discolouration. Never clean the appliance or parts with abrasive and strong
cleaner. For easier cleaning and to avoid discolouration: Clean as you go and avoid dried
on juice or pulp residue. Immediately after each use, rinse removable parts in hot water to
remove wet pulp. Otherwise discolouration of the plastic may occur with strongly coloured
fruit and vegetables. Allow parts to air dry.
Never use hard or sharp-edged objects when using or cleaning the juicer or the stainless
steel micro mesh filter. Do not use force when using the appliance to avoid damages.
Always assemble the appliance completely before storing. The parts are protected this way
and can not get lost.
Ensure the juicer is correctly disassembled. Refer to ›Disassembling your Design Juicer Pro‹.
Follow these instructions to clean all surfaces of parts that come into contact with food during normal use.
Filter bowl surround, juicer cover, stainless steel micro mesh filter, juice jug and pulp
container are dishwasher safe (top shelf only). Use a program to be suited for glass (low
temperature). A program with high temperature might cause discolouration and distortion
of the plastic parts. Plastic parts might tarnish being frequently cleaned in the dishwasher.
IMPORTANT: Do not clean the food pusher in the dishwasher.
IMPORTANT: Soak the stainless steel filter basket in hot soapy water for approximately
10 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. After cleaning the filter basket,
hold it up towards a light to ensure the fine mesh holes are
not blocked. If the holes are blocked, soak the filter basket
in hot water with 10% lemon juice to loosen the blocked
holes. Alternatively, wash the filter basket in the dishwasher.
NOTE: Alternatively you can soak the filter basket in hot
water with dental prosthesis detergent. Rinse thoroughly
with clear water and the provided nylon brush.
IMPORTANT: Do not soak the stainless steel filter basket in
bleach. Always treat the filter basket with care as it can be easily damaged.
Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth. Ensure of no water intrusion into the inside of the motor block.
48
Allow parts to air dry or thoroughly dry them with a clean cloth. Always assemble the appliance completely before storing (regard ›Assembling the appliance‹). The parts are protected
this way and can not get lost. Keep all parts out of reach of children.
ATTENTION: Occasionally clean the drive coupling (see picture) with a damp cloth. Ensure
the stainless steel balls of the basket adjustment are clean and free from dried on juice or
pulp residue. After every fifth usage put some vaseline onto the balls of the adjustment.
WARNING: Please store the juicer in a frost-free, clean
and dry location where it is out of reach of children
and is protected against excessive loads (such as downfall, voltage, heat, humidity). Never lay heavy or hard
objects on top of the appliance.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
Possible problem Easy solution
Machine will not work when
switched ›ON‹
Motor appears to stall when
juicing
Excess pulp building up in
the micro mesh filter basket
Pulp too wet and reduced
extracted juice
Juice leaks between the rim
of the juicer and the cover
of the filter
Bowl surround juice sprays
out from spout
Juicer makes loud noise
when turned on
No juice coming out while
juicing
The safety locking arm may not be correctly engaged in the vertical operating position with the locking arm located into the two grooves on both
side of the juicer cover (regard ›Assembling the appliance‹).
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. Clean the integrated pulp container, the stainless steel filter basket
and the juicer cover (regard ›To clear the block‹).
Stop the juicing process. Remove the juicer cover, scrape off pulp.
Assemble and begin juicing again. Try alternating (soft and hard) vegetable and fruit varieties.
Try a slower juicing by pushing the food pusher down more slowly.
Remove stainless steel filter basket and thoroughly clean mesh walls with
the nylon brush. Rinse the stainless steel filter basket under hot water. If
the fine mesh holes are blocked, soak the stainless steel filter basket in a
solution of hot water with 10% lemon juice to unblock the holes or wash
in the dishwasher. This will remove excess fibre build up (from fruit or
vegetables) which could be inhibiting the juice flow.
Try a slower juicing by pushing the food pusher down more slowly. Fruit
and vegetables with a high water content (tomatoes and watermelon)
should be juiced on low speed.
Try a slower juicing by pushing the food pusher down more slowly.
Filer basket is not properly snapped into position. Turn the ›ON/OFF‹
button to ›OFF‹. Turn the power off. Disassemble the Design Juicer Pro
(refer to ›disassembling‹). Assemble (refer to ›Assembling‹).
Check that the spout is not blocked with pulp. Refer to ›Care and
Cleaning‹.
49
TO CLEAR BLOCKAGE
When juicing hard or stringily fruit or vegetables, or if you push down the food pusher too
fast or with too much pressure or the juicing is too vigorous, wet pulp can build up under
the juicer cover or the motor appears to stall when juicing. Wet pulp would block the fine
mashes of the filter basket. Try slower juicing by pushing the food pusher down more slowly.
Follow Disassembling and Cleaning instructions and clean the filter bowl surround, the stainless steel filter basket and the juicer cover.
1. Turn the appliance off, wait for the motor to stop moving and pull the plug.
2. Disassemble the appliance according to the instructions.
WARNING: Do not touch blades when handling the filter basket.
3. Remove residue of food on the filter basket with a small wooden or plastic spoon.
4. Assemble the appliance according to the instructions and continue juicing.
5. If another blockage occurs clean the appliance according to the instruction ›Care and
Cleaning‹.
To avoid further blockage:
• When juicing hard or stringily fruit or vegetables choose high speed.
• Remove very hard and stringily elements such as stalks and stems.
• Try slower juicing by pushing the food pusher down more slowly.
• Avoid overloading pulp in the pulp container. The pulp has to be able to fall easily and
unhindered into the pulp container.
• Try other fruit and vegetables.

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 well balanced diet. Fresh fruit
and vegetable juices are an easy source of vitamins and minerals.
Juices are rapidly absorbed into the blood stream therefore being the quickest way in which
the body can digest nutrients. When you make your own juices, you have complete control
over what you include in them. You select the ingredients and decide if you need to use
sugar, salt or other flavouring agents. Freshly extracted juices should be consumed just after
they have been made to avoid a loss of vitamin content.
PURCHASING AND STORAGE OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES
• Always wash fruit and vegetables before juicing.
• Always use fresh fruit and vegetables for juicing.
• To save money and obtain fresher produce, purchase fruit or vegetables that are in season.
• Keep your fruit and vegetables ready for juicing by washing them before storing.
• Most fruit and hardier type vegetables can be stored at room temperature. The more
delicate and perishable items such as tomatoes, berries, leafy greens, celery, cucumber and
herbs should be stored in the refrigerator until required.
PREPARATION OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES
• If using fruit with hard or inedible skins such as mangoes, guava, melons or pineapple,
always peel before juicing.
• Citrus fruit can be juiced in the Design Juicer Pro if peeled first.
• All fruit with pits, hard seeds or stones such as nectarine, peaches, mangoes, apricots,
plums and cherries must be pitted before juicing.
• A small amount of lemon juice can be added to apple juice to prevent browning.
NOTE: Your Design Juicer Pro makes invigorating, frothy orange juice. Simply peel the
oranges and juice. (It is best to refrigerate oranges before juicing).
THE RIGHT TECHNIQUE
• When juicing a variety of ingredients with varying textures start with the softer textured
ingredients then change to for harder texture ingredients. Choose the correct speed according to the speed selection table.
• If you are juicing herbs, sprouts or leafy green vegetables either wrap then together to
form a bundle or juice them in the middle of a combination of ingredients to obtain the best
extraction.
51
• If juicing herbs or leafy green vegetables on their own, the juice yield will be low due to
the nature of centrifugal juicing, it is advised to juice them as with a combination of other
fruit 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.
NOTE: To extract the maximum amount of juice always push the food pusher down slowly.
GETTING THE RIGHT BLEND
It is easy to create great tasting juice. If you have been making your own vegetable and fruit
juices, then you know how simple it is to invent new combinations. Taste, colour, texture and
ingredient preferences are a personal thing. Just think of some of your favourite flavours and
foods – would they work well together or would they clash. Some strong flavours could over
power the more subtle flavours of others. It is however, a good rule of thumb to combine
starchy, pulpy ingredients with those high in moisture.
USING THE PULP
The remaining pulp left after juicing fruit or vegetables is mostly fibre and cellulose which,
like the juice, contains vital nutrients necessary for the daily diet and can be used in many
ways. However, like the juice, pulp should be used that day to avoid loss of vitamins.
Some of the uses of pulp are to bulk out rissoles, thicken casseroles or soups or in the case of
