CLEANING

Clean the removable parts using water and washing-up liquid immediately after use. Once it has dried, the pulp is harder to remove. Certain foods, such as carrots, tend to stain the plastic. Use a piece of kitchen paper with a little vegetable oil to remove some of the staining.

Motor base : unplug the power cord, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products (e.g. Brillo pads

Bowl : push the spout into the cleaning position. Citrus press basket : unclip the lever arm by pulling the tab free.

Juice extractor basket : insert the thin end of the spatula into the basket and scrape away the bulk of the pulp.

Models without cleaning brush : hold the basket vertically under a running tap. Clean the metal filter inside and out using the spatula provided.

Models with cleaning brush : place the juice extractor basket onto the motor shaft.

Fit the cleaning brush and the lid. Switch the machine on and slowly pour water into the feed tube. Stop when the water comes out clean.

It is vital to follow certain rules in order to avoid seriously damaging the removable parts :

• Dishwasher : select the minimum temperature and avoid if possible the dr ying cycle (generally 60°C).

• Handwashing : avoid leaving parts to soak in detergent for too long.

• Detergents : read through the manufacturer’s instructions to check that they are suitable for cleaning plastic items.

Ensure that the voltage of your mains supply corresponds to that shown on the identification plate on the underside of your appliance.

For models with a chrome finish, the appliance must always be plugged into an earthed socket. Your appliance is fitted with a thermal protection system which automatically stops the motor if it has been running for too long or is overloaded. If this happens, switch the appliance off and wait until it has cooled down completely before switching it on again.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

For chrome plated models only : To reduce the risk of electric shock, this

equipment has a grounding type plug, that has a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding outlet. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. For all other models : To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only in one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. Do not change the plug in any way. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. The electrical rating listed on the unit is based on the attachment that draws the greatest load. Other attachments might draw significantly less power or current.

CAUTION

When using your Le Duo XL juicer extractor, feed the fruit or vegetables down the feed tube using the pusher provided.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES REACH INTO THE FEED TUBE WITH YOUR HANDS OR PUT ANY OTHER OBJECT INTO THE FEEDTUBE WHILE THE MACHINE IS RUNNING. In the unlikely event of the fruit becoming stuck, switch off the machine and unplug it at the wall. Remove the lid and clean the feed tube and filter until the machine is unblocked.

ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS

FRUIT AND VEGETABLES

A TO Z

Introduction

The juice extractor and citrus press functions allow you to extract juice from a wide range of fruit and vegetables. And if you also have the coulis maker function, you can turn up to 99%* of the produce on sale at your local greengrocer’s into delicious juices, nectars or coulis. As each individual fruit and vegetable is very different, it is impor tant to choose the most suitable attachment. Prepare the ingredients following the instructions below. For every fruit or vegetable, we explain:

• How to choose it

• How to prepare it

• Why it is good for you

• Which attachment to use. You may have a choice of attachment for certain types of fruit, but you will not necessarily obtain the same results with each. For example, a pear processed in the juice extractor will yield a clear juice, whereas if you use the coulis maker function, you will obtain a thicker, nectar-type juice. As a rule, if you choose the juicer rather than the coulis maker, soft (or pre-cooked) fruits and vegetables will yield slightly less juice, the basket will fill up more quickly and the liquid will flow more slowly.

* For example, avocados are extremely rich and do not yield any juice, which means

they have to be blended

A TO Z

Apple

Choose firm fruit, preferably organically grown to avoid having to remove the peel, which is rich in pectin and vitamin A. There are hundreds of varieties of apple. Granny Smiths will produce a very refreshing, slightly acid juice, while Golden Delicious apples will yield a milder juice. Wash them, cut into pieces and process directly in the juicer without coring them.

Benefits : apples are very good for

health, as underlined by the saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”: They help to stabilize cholesterol levels, improve digestion and promote the elimination of toxins. They are also an appetite suppressant.

Apricot, Peach, Nectarine

Choose fruit that is dark in colour, slightly soft and feels heavy in the hand. Wash thoroughly, remove the stones and cut into pieces. The flesh of these fruits extracts a fairly thick nectar . When using the juice extractor,

you may therefore need to

combine them with other, juicier fruit or vegetables,

in order to increase the flow and dilute the pulp.

Benefits : Apricot : ideal for fighting

infections. Peach/nectarine : stimulates intestinal transit.

Asparagus

Choose young, firm shoots. Wash them, remove the tough part of the stalk and cut into sections before processing in the juice extractor.

Benefits : as it is extremely alkaline,

asparagus juice helps to reduce the acidity of your blood.

Banana

Choose fruit with uniformly yellow

skin. As banana flesh is extre-

mely thick, it will produce a

purée rather than a juice when

pressed, which is why it is a good

idea to combine it with other fruit. Make sure you always process the banana first (peeled and cut into pieces), followed by other, juicier fruit to dilute the pulp.

Benefits : a high-energy food, bananas

are also excellent for the digestion.

A TO Z

Beetroot

Choose firm ones that are not too big. Scrape the skin off and cut into pieces before processing in the juice extractor. As it is often difficult to find raw beetroots in the shops, you can used cooked ones, bearing in mind that they will have a slightly lower nutritional value.

Benefits : a good source of energy

and a powerful cleanser, beetroot juice promotes blood regeneration. WARNING : because it has such a strong effect, beetroot juice should always be combined with other juices.

Blueberry

Choose plump berries with a bloom on their skin. You can also use frozen berries when fresh ones are not in season. Rinse and drain them before processing them using the coulis attachment.

Benefits : blueberry skin has

bactericidal properties which are good for the digestive system.

Broccoli

Choose broccoli with tight, green florets. You can process both the stalks and the florets in the juice extractor. As the juice is rather bitter,

it is a good idea to combine it

with other juices. Wash the broccoli thoroughly and cut into

pieces before placing in

the juice extractor.

Benefits : as in the case of other

members of the cabbage family, it is said to have anti-cancer properties, while it also improves blood oxygenation.

Carrot

Choose good hard carrots with uniform, unblemished skins. There is no need to peel them, providing you scrub them well before cutting them into pieces. Make sure you always have a store of fresh carrots, as they form the basis of a great many cocktails.

Benefits : as carrot juice is extremely

rich in betacarotene, it is good for both your skin and your eyesight.

A TO Z

Celery

Choice firm, fresh, green sticks. Wash and cut into sections before processing in the juice extractor. Its slightly salty juice goes well with other fruit and vegetable juices (apple, tomato, etc.)

Benefits : rich in sodium, it neutralizes

the body’s natural acidity. Celery also helps to eliminate excess carbon dioxide. Lastly, an apple and celery juice combats stress and insomnia.

Cherry

Choose dark red, fat and flawless cherries, preferably still with their stalks. Their juice is extremely fragrant, but the preparation takes rather a long time, as it is vital to remove their stones (after washing them and removing their stalks) before processing them in the juice extractor or the coulis maker.

Benefits : extremely rich in vitamin A,

and therefore good for the eyesight, cherries are also recommended for people suffering from rheumatism.

Citrus fruit

(Lemon, Orange, Grapefruit)

Always select citrus fruit that feels heavy in the hand, with a thin, shiny skin. The easiest way to extract the juice is to cut the fruit in half and use the citrus press. However, to make life easier when preparing certain cocktails, you can also process them in the juice extractor or the coulis maker after removing the peel and separating the segments.

Benefits : all citrus fruits are rich in

vitamin C, which makes them a good source of energy. They also help to cleanse your body. Pinky-orange citrus fruits, such as blood oranges,

are a good source

of vitamin A

(betacarotene). As for lemon juice, it is a

powerful

anti-oxidant, and

when sprinkled onto other fruits and vegetables, it prevents any discoloration and acts as a natural preservative.

or or

A TO Z

Coconut

Choose a full coconut: when you shake it, you should hear the coconut water moving. Start by piercing one of

its “eyes” (small, dark

spots at one end of

the coconut) with a

small knife and collect

the water in a glass. Smash the shell with a hammer, then remove the flesh and break into small pieces. You do not need to cut off the dark rind. Process the pieces in the juice extractor to obtain a pulp, then pour the coconut water and/or ordinary water through the feed tube to rinse the pulp and thereby obtain coconut milk. Do not discard the pulp, as it can be used in cakes.

Benefits : a thirst-quenching juice

rich in mineral salts.

Cucumber

Choose firm, dark green cucumbers. Peel them roughly and cut into pieces. Watery and extremely thirst-quenching, the resulting juice tempers the strong taste of some other juices (radish, pepper, etc.).

Benefits : Rich in mineral salts, it

improves skin tone.

Fennel

Choose firm, white bulbs with a few small green sprigs. Wash and cut into pieces. Its aniseed taste goes well with other juices (apple, orange, etc.).

Benefits : as fennel juice is rich in

vitamin A, it is good for the eyesight. It also relieves headaches.

Ginger

Discard any roots that are soft or withered. Cut off a small piece to process in the juice extractor along with other fruits or vegetables to produce a spicy cocktail.

Benefits : used since ancient times

in Oriental medicine, ginger is extremely good for you. Boasting fortifying and antiseptic properties, it helps combat head colds, coughs and nausea. It is also extremely good for the circulation (increases blood flow to the peripheral organs).

A TO Z

Grape

Choose bunches of firm, uniformlysized grapes firmly attached to their

stalks. Wash the bunches

thoroughly and strip off

the grapes. Naturally

mild and sweet, their

juice is a firm favourite with children.

Benefits : rich in vitamins and minerals,

grapes stimulate the metabolism and pure grape juice can be drunk when dieting.

Guava

Choose guavas with pale yellow skin – a sign of ripeness. Remove the skin and cut the flesh into pieces before processing in the juice extractor (for a juice) or using the coulis attachment (purée). As its flesh is extremely dense, it is a good idea to process the fruit one at a time and to empty the juice extractor basket before processing other fruit.

Benefits : large quantities of vitamin

C and low in calories.

Kiwi

Choose ripe fruit which yield slightly to the touch. Peel and cut into pieces.

Benefits : extremely rich in vitamin C,

it is an excellent all-round tonic.

Lettuce

Choose fresh, green lettuce. Detach a few leaves, roll them together and feed them through the tube. Repeat this process as many times as necessary. As the resulting juice is rather bitter, it is a good idea to mix it with other juices.

Benefits : like parsley, lettuce is rich

in chlorophyll. Its juice helps to purify the blood and improves skin appearance.

A TO Z

Lychees

Choose lychees with pink or red skin. Tinned lychees are freely available, but their taste is far inferior to that of fresh ones. Peel away their tough skin and remove the stones before processing them in the juice extractor or using the coulis attachment.

Benefits : a good source of vitamin C.

Mango, Papaya

Choose ripe fruit which yield slightly to the touch. Peel them, remove the stones or seeds and cut into pieces. If you choose the juice extractor function, you may need to process juicier fruits after the mango or papaya in order to dilute the pulp. Less flavoursome than mangoes, papayas in particular need to be combined with other ingredients.

Benefits : Mango : extremely rich in

vitamin A, it is good for the skin. Papaya : this contains papaine, which promotes the digestion of proteins.

Melon, watermelon

Choose a heavy melon with unblemished skin. Its stalk should come away slightly. The skin of a watermelon should be hard and smooth. Remove the seeds (except for the watermelon), remove the rind, then cut into pieces.

Benefits :

Melon : taken pure, its juice is good for the digestive

system.

Its extremely fragrant juice goes well with that of more acidic fruits, although people subject to gastric disorders should drink it on its own, as once it has reached the stomach it rapidly starts to ferment. Watermelon : extremely low in calories, watermelon juice is an effective depurative and a natural appetite stimulant.

A TO Z

Parsley

Choose bright green leaves. When drunk pure, its taste is quite strong, so it is best combined with other juices. Process the parsley leaves in the juice extractor first, after washing and draining them, followed by the other vegetables.

Benefits : extremely rich in chlorophyll,

parsley helps to purify the blood and cleanse the liver. It refreshes the breath and improves digestion. It is also a first-rate source of vitamin C.

Passion (fruit)

Choose fruit which feels heavy in the hand, with slightly wrinkled skin (if it is too wrinkled, the fruit will be dry). Cut in half, remove the pulp with a teaspoon and process it in the juice extractor or using the coulis attachment. This extremely flavoursome fruit enhances the taste of many fruit cocktails.

Benefits : good for relieving stress.

Pear

Choose firm ones with an unblemished

skin (preferably organically

grown, to avoid having to peel

them). Wash them,

cut them in half without peeling or coring them,

then process them directly in the juice extractor (for a clear juice) or using the coulis attachment (for a nectar). Add a few drops of lemon juice to prevent the pear juice from oxidizing.

Benefits : this is a juice rich in

potassium, mineral salts and vitamins : energy-giving and depurative properties.

Persimmon

Originally from Japan, persimmons resemble large orange tomatoes. Make sure you only use ones which are fully ripe. Unlike other fruit, they are at their best when they are soft and not too smooth and shiny. Their flesh is soft, with a slight aroma of honey. Wash them, remove their stalks, cut the flesh into pieces and process using the coulis attachment.

Benefits : a fruit rich in vitamins A

and C.

A TO Z

Pineapple

Choose one that is heavy and fragrant. A pineapple is ripe if you can easily pull off a leaf from the base

of the tuft. Remove the leaves

and the thick skin, then cut into

pieces.

Benefits : contains bromeline,

an enzyme known to aid

digestion.

Plum

Choose plump, well-coloured fruit. Its flesh should yield slightly to the touch. Wash, cut into half and remove the

stone.

Benefits : an effective stimulant and

detoxifier.

Radish

Choose hard, red radishes with fresh green leaves. Cut off the leafy tops and wash the radishes before processing them in the juice extractor. The resulting peppery juice can be used to “pep up” cocktails.

Benefits : a depurative and a good

source of minerals, it is a well-known liver drainer. WARNING : as it has such a powerful effect, radish juice should only be consumed in small quantities and never on its own.

Raspberry

Make sure the fruit is ripe and unblemished. If you pick the raspberries yourself, they should come away easily from the stalk. Avoid washing them, as this will reduce their flavour.

Benefits : an excellent all-round

tonic.

Red and blackcurrants

Choose firm berries with shiny skins. In order to enjoy them all year round, you can freeze them: strip them off their stalks, wash and dry them, then place them in a suitable freezer container. If you are using fresh berries, strip them off their stalks before processing them using the coulis maker attachment. As red and blackcurrants are the fruits with virtually the lowest sugar content, you can make their juice less acidic by adding a little cane syrup.

A TO Z

Benefits : both these currants are rich

in vitamin C. Blackcurrants also have

antiseptic properties.

Redcurrants are

recommended for

people suffering

from rheumatism.

Soya (bean sprouts)

Choose white, crunchy-looking, leafless bean sprouts – organically grown, if possible. As soya juice has a rather earthy taste, it is a good idea to combine it with other juices. Wash the bean sprouts and process them directly in the juice extractor. To maximize yield, make sure you regularly empty the juice extractor basket (approx. every 200 g).

Benefits : an excellent source of

proteins, it is a good meat substitute, which is why it is such a feature of vegetarian diets.

Strawberry

Choose fragrant, unblemished strawberries. Wipe them gently with damp kitchen paper (if you wash them they will become watery), hull them and cut the larger ones in half.

Benefits : an effective depurative

which reinforces natural immunity.

Sweet pepper

Choose firm, smooth-skinned peppers. They come in several colours, the red one being the one which will extract the sweetest juice. If using the juice extractor, wash the raw peppers, remove the stalks and seeds, then cut into pieces. You will obtain a clear and brightly-coloured juice. If using

the coulis attachment,

char the peppers under the grill on all sides,

then remove the stalks,

cut into pieces without removing the seeds and process using the coulis attachment to obtain a pepper coulis.

Benefits : rich in silicon, sweet

pepper juice is good for the skin, hair and nails.

Tomato

Choice dark red, ripe tomatoes. Wash them, remove their stalks and cut into pieces. Although you can process the tomato pieces in the juice extractor, both extraction and capacity will be higher if you use the coulis maker attachment. Fresh, natural tomato juice or coulis is fairly pale, only taking on an attractive crimson hue when cooked.

Benefits : it stimulates the circulation

and is recommended in cases of anaemia.

RECOMMENDATIONS

HOW TO READ THE RECIPES

It is a good idea to vary your consumption of fruit and vegetables, as they do not all contain the same substances and are therefore good for you in different ways.

The fresher the fruit and vegetables, the more vitamins they will contain and the greater the amount of juice they will extract. If possible, choose organically-grown produce, especially in the case of fruit and vegetables you do not need to peel, as the skin is generally rich in nutrients. To dilute your juice, use mineral water. The same applies to making ice cubes for your cocktails.

Drink or use the juice immediately, if possible, as certain vitamins are destroyed by exposure to light or oxygen. If you have to store it for a while, add a few drops of lemon juice so that it keeps longer and place it in the refrigerator.

Always dilute dark red or green vegetable juices, as they are extremely powerful depuratives.

Fruit is rich in fructose (natural sugar), so if you cannot tolerate sugar, do not drink too much.

Children’s digestive systems are more sensitive than those of adults, so dilute the juices you make to accustom them to this type of concentrated nutrition and choose fresh, light-tasting fruit juices.

Difficulty of the recipe

Use the citrus press

Use the juice extractor

Use the coulis maker

Whenever you are given the choice between two different attachments for the same recipe, we always mention the most suitable one first. Processing takes between 1 and 5 minutes, depending on the recipe.
