Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for optimal performance and safety when using your Magimix Juice Expert 3.

General Operation

1. Ensure the appliance is correctly assembled and plugged into a 120V AC power outlet.
2. Prepare your fruits and vegetables by washing them thoroughly. For the Juice Extractor, larger items like apples (Figure 7) or carrots (Figure 8) may need to be cut to fit the feed chute. Remove pits from fruits.
3. Turn on the appliance using the control button.
4. Gradually feed ingredients into the chute. Use the pusher (Figure 5) to gently guide them down. Do not force ingredients, as this can damage the motor.
5. Once juicing is complete, turn off the appliance and unplug it before disassembling or cleaning.

Specific Use Cases

• Juice Extractor (Hard Fruits & Vegetables): Use for items like apples, carrots, celery, and ginger. The centrifugal action efficiently separates pulp from juice.
