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 than 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 push products into the feed chute with your fingers or 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.
• 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.
• The blades on the base of the stainless steel micro mesh filter, smoothie disc, and inside the feed chute are very sharp. Pay attention when handling the units. Only touch the stainless steel micro mesh filter and smoothie disc on the edge and handle with care when cleaning with the nylon bristle brush.
• ATTENTION: Ensure that the filter basket is clean before starting to operate the app­liance. Do not leave food leftovers dehumidify on the appliance or units of the appliance. 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.
• Note: The juice jug lid can be used to avoid any splatter. Alternatively you can fit the custom-designed juice nozzle over the juice spout and place a glass underneath. The juice nozzle will prevent splatter, ensuring mess free juicing.
• ATTENTION: Empty the pulp container and juice jug in time to avoid run-over and splat­ter which might cause damages to the appliance.
• ATTENTION: Never clean the motor block in the dishwasher. Always turn the appliance off and pull the plug when the appliance is not in use or when disassembling, moving or cleaning the appliance.

Making Juice with the Filter Basket or the Smoothie Disc
Step 1:
Wash selection of fruit and vegetables to be juiced and remove if necessary the peel (oran­ges, citrus fruit), stems and stones (nectarines, peaches, plums) and all inedible elements.
NOTE: Most fruit and vegetables such as apples, carrots and cucumber will not need to be cut or trimmed to size as these will fit whole into the feed chute. Ensure vegetables such as beetroot, carrots, etc. have all soil removed, are well washed and trimmed of leaves before juicing. When juicing carrots place the tip of the carrot into the feed chute last.
Step 2:
Ensure the Juicer is correctly assembled and that there are no foreign objects in the feed chute before putting the plug into the power point. Ensure the stainless steel filter is tho­roughly cleaned before each use (refer to ´Care and cleaning`). Ensure you place the juice jug with lid fitted (or glass) under spout before commencing juicing.
WARNING: Do not put hard fruit and vegetables (i.e. carrots, apples, fresh beetroot, etc.) or ice through juicer when using the Smoothie Attachment. This could damage parts of the unit.
Ensure the juicer is correctly assembled. Refer to ´Assembling the appliance`. Ensure the juice jug (or a glass) is placed under the spout and the pulp container is in position before commencing juicing.
Step 3:
Plug the power cord into a 230/240V power outlet and turn the power ‘ON’. Push the ‘ON/OFF’ button to ‘ON’. Adjust the variable speed control dial to the desired setting depending on the type of fruit or vegetable being juiced. Use the speed selector table as a guide for juicing different fruit and vegetables.

Step 4:
Press the ‘On/Off’ switch on the control panel to ‘On’. The juicer will start to operate at the selected speed. The speed can be changed at any time during the juicing process by adjusting the variable speed control dial.
WARNING: The feed chute is extra-large! Never put fingers, wooden spoons or other foreign substances (such as hair, clothing, brushes, cloth) into the feed chute. Never use
fingers to push food down the feed chute or to clear the feed chute. Always use the food pusher provided. With the motor running, place food into the feed chute and use the food pusher to gently guide food down. To extract the maximum amount of juice, always push the food pusher down slowly.
Note: The Juicer will automatically stop operating if the motor is stalled for more than 10
seconds. This is a safety feature. Either too much food is being processed at one time or the pieces are not small enough. Try trimming food, cutting food into smaller pieces of even size and/or processing a smaller amount per batch. To continue juicing, reset the Design Multi Juicer Digital by pressing the ‘On/Off’ switch on the control panel to ‘Off’, then turn the appliance back on by pressing the ‘On/Off’ switch to ‘On’.
Step 5:
As fruit and vegetables are processed, juice will flow into the juice jug and the separated pulp will accumulate in the pulp container.
53
ATTENTION: Do not allow the pulp container to overfill as this may affect the operation of the appliance (refer to disassembling instructions). Reassemble the machine to continue juicing. To minimise cleaning, line the pulp container with a plastic freezer bag to collect the pulp. Pulp can then be used in other dishes, or as compost for the garden or discarded.
Step 6:
There will be no pulp extracted into Pulp Container. Some fruit may be left in the juice coll­ector. This is normal. The amount left over will vary depending on ripeness and hardness of fruit.
Empty the pulp container during juicing
The pulp container can be emptied during juicing by turning the appliance ‘Off’ at the control panel and then carefully removing the pulp container. Remove the pulp container by tilting the pulp container slightly to the right and unlatch it from under the juicer cover and the container support extending from under the motor base. Replace the empty pulp container into position before continuing to juice.
Overheat protection
The Juicer will automatically stop operating if the motor is stalled for more than 10 seconds. This is a safety feature. Either too much food is being processed at one time or the pieces are not small enough. Try trimming food, cutting food into smaller pieces of even size and or processing a smaller amount per batch. To continue juicing, reset the appliance by pressing the ‘On/Off’ switch on the control panel to ‘Off’, then turn the appliance back on by pressing the ‘On/Off’ switch to ‘On’.

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, disassembling 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, the Smoothie Disc 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, the Smoothie Disc or feed chute.
ATTENTION: Abrasive and strong cleaner damage the surface of the plastic units and could cause discolouration. Never clean the appliance or units 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 subjects 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 units are protected this way and cannot get lost.
Ensure the Juicer is correctly disassembled. Refer to ´Disassembling your appliance`. 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 filter basket, pulp container, juice box and Smoothie Disc are dishwasher safe (top shelf only, max. 60 °C.). Use a program to be suited for glasses (low temperature). A program with high temperature might cause discolouration and distortion of the plastic units. Plastic units 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 or the Smoothie Disc in hot soapy water
for approximately 10 minutes immediately after juicing is completed. If pulp dehumidifies on the filter basket it may clog the fine pores of the filter basket or the Smoothie Disc thereby lessening the effectiveness of the juicer.
Using the cleaning brush, hold the filter basket (picture A) or Smoothie Disc 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 or Smoothie Disc. 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 or Smoothie Disc in the dishwasher (max. 60 ° C.).
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.

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 action 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 action 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 a high speed.
• Remove very hard and stringily elements such as stalks and stems.
• Try slower juicing action 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.

Excess pulp building up in the filter basket Stop the juicing process. Remove the juicer cover,
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)`.
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 ´Clear blockage`).
scrape off pulp. Reassemble and begin juicing again. Try alternative (soft and hard) vegetable and fruit varieties.
Pulp too wet and reduced extracted juice Try a slower juicing action.
Juice leaks between the rim of the Juicer and the juicer cover
Juice sprays out from spout Use juice jug and lid provided, or if juicing into
When using the Smoothie Attachment, the filter bowl surround becomes full and clogs its spout.
Remove juice disc and thoroughly clean mesh walls with a cleaning brush. Rinse the juice disc under hot water. If the fine mesh holes are blocked, soak the 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 speed and push the food pusher down the feed chute more slowly
a glass use the custom designed juice nozzle. Try using fruits with more water content to help flush through the contents. Additionally, try a slower juicing action by feeding one piece in at a time and 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 well-balanced diet. Fresh fruit and vegetable juices are an easy to make 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 Multi Juicer Digital 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 prohibit browning.
NOTE: Your Design Multi Juicer Digital 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 at a low speed then change to higher speed 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 them together to form a bundle or juice them in the middle of a combination of ingredients to obtain the best extraction.
59
• 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 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 fruit, simply placed in a bowl topped with meringue and baked for a simple dessert. Quite apart from the consumption use, pulp is great used in the garden for compost.
NOTE: When using the pulp, there may be some pieces of fruit or vegetables remaining. These should be removed before using the pulp in any recipes.
