4. Operating Instructions

Learn how to effectively use your Braun Multiquick 5 J500 Juicer.

  1. Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly. For most fruits and vegetables, peeling is not necessary. Remove large seeds or pits (e.g., from peaches, plums, cherries).
  2. Cut larger items into pieces that fit into the feed chute.
  3. Plug the appliance into a power outlet.
  4. Turn the control knob to the desired speed setting:
    • Speed 1: For soft fruits and vegetables (e.g., berries, tomatoes, grapes).
    • Speed 2: For hard fruits and vegetables (e.g., apples, carrots, celery).
  5. Gradually feed the prepared fruits and vegetables into the feed chute using the pusher. Apply gentle, even pressure. Do not force the produce.
  6. The fresh juice will flow into the juice jug, and the pulp will collect in the pulp container.
  7. When finished, turn the control knob to '0' (off) and unplug the appliance.

Tips for Best Results:

  • For maximum juice yield, process produce slowly and steadily.
  • Juice firm fruits and vegetables immediately after washing to prevent oxidation.
  • Use fresh, ripe produce for the best flavor and nutritional value.
  • The anti-drip system can be activated by pushing the spout upwards after juicing to prevent drips.

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your juicer.

  1. Disassembly: Unplug the appliance. Remove the pusher, then the lid. Lift out the filter basket, then the juice collector, and finally the pulp container.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse all removable parts (lid, pusher, filter basket, juice collector, pulp container, juice jug) under running water immediately after use to prevent pulp from drying.
