Operating Instructions

Once the citrus juicer is assembled, you can begin extracting juice:

  1. Cut citrus fruits (oranges, lemons, grapefruits, limes) in half.
  2. Plug in your Bosch MUM5 food processor and switch it on to a low to medium speed setting. Refer to your food processor's manual for recommended speed settings for juicing.
  3. Take one half of a citrus fruit and press it firmly onto the rotating pressing cone.
  4. Apply gentle, even pressure. The juice will flow through the sieve into the collection bowl, while pulp and seeds are retained.
  5. Continue until all juice is extracted from the fruit half.
  6. Repeat with remaining fruit halves.
  7. Once juicing is complete, switch off and unplug the food processor.
  8. Carefully remove the citrus juicer attachment from the food processor.

Tip: For best results, use fresh, room-temperature citrus fruits.
