Frequently Asked Questions - SFE 450 A1 SILVERCREST

Why does the juicer not start?

Ensure the power plug is connected, the On/Off switch is set to a speed level, and the clasps on the lid are securely closed. The appliance will not operate if the clamps are open.

The motor runs slowly or stops during use. What should I do?

This usually indicates the filter is blocked. Immediately switch off and unplug the appliance. Disassemble and clean the filter and pulp container before resuming.

How do I clean the filter properly?

Use the supplied nylon brush under running water. Hold the filter upside down and scrub gently. The filter is not dishwasher safe.

Can I put parts in the dishwasher?

Yes, the stodger, juice container, housing lid, separate juice collector, and pulp container are dishwasher safe. The filter must be hand washed.

Why is the juice leaking from the sides?

This can happen if you work too fast, the filter or juice outlet is blocked, or the speed setting is too high. Reduce speed to level I and clean the filter if needed.

How long can I use the juicer continuously?

The continuous operation time is 30 minutes. After that, let the motor cool down completely before using again to prevent damage.

What fruits and vegetables can I juice?

Use well-ripened fruits and vegetables. Peel thick skins (citrus, melons, beets). Remove large seeds and stones. Avoid rhubarb, raisins, and fibrous produce as they can clog the filter.

The juice is not clear and has pulp. Is this normal?

Some pulp is normal. The integrated foam separator helps reduce foam. For clearer juice, reduce processing speed or use a finer filter (not included).

How do I store the juicer after use?

Wind the power cord around the cable rewind on the underside. Store all parts clean and dry. Keep out of reach of children.

What should I do if the juicer makes unusual noises?

Unusual noises may indicate blockage or a loose filter. Switch off immediately, unplug, and check the filter and pulp container. Reassemble securely before restarting.

- Should the appliance not operate correctly, or become damaged, arrange for it to be examined and repaired by Customer Services as soon as possible.

- Do not expose the appliance to rain and never use it in a humid or wet environment. Take steps to ensure the power cable never becomes wet or moist during use.

NEVER immerse the appliance base in water or any other liquid!

To avoid the risks of fire or injuries:

- Never leave the appliance unattended whilst in use.

- Caution! Keep children away from the power cable and the appliance. Children frequently underestimate the danger from electrical appliances.

- Ensure that the appliance stands with a safe and secure positioning.

- Ensure that the power cable is at all times easily accessible and that no one can trip over it.

- To avoid injuries, ensure that all the component parts are correctly connected and installed.

- Before switching the appliance on, ensure that the lid has been correctly and firmly closed with the clamps. If not, the appliance will not start. Should the clamps become loose during operation, the appliance stops automatically.

When working with the appliance, NEVER insert your hands or other objects into the loading shaft. This could lead to grave personal injuries or serious damage to the appliance. If pieces of fruit or vegetable cannot be removed with the stodger, switch the appliance off, remove the plug from the power socket and open the appliance.

- Risk of Injury! The cutter is very sharp. Handle it very carefully.

- DO NOT use the appliance if the rotating sieve is damaged.

- Do not touch any rotating parts.

- Turn the appliance off after use and remove the power plug from the wall socket. Only when the motor has come to a complete stop may the appliance be disassembled.

NEVER use the appliance:

- if the filter/sieve, power cable or power plug are damaged,

- in the case of malfunctions, or if it has otherwise been damaged or dropped. Send the appliance to Customer Services for checking and/or repair.

- The use of attachments and accessories not recommended or sold by the manufacturer can cause fire, electric shocks and/or personal injuries.

Tips for safety:

• In cases of danger, immediately remove the power plug from the wall socket.
• Use the appliance exclusively for the purposes described in these operating instructions.
• Always be alert! Always pay attention to what you are doing and act with common sense. Never use the appliance when you are distracted or don't feel well.
• Ensure that the appliance is correctly and completely assembled before taking it into use. The appliance can first be taken into use when the clamps have been closed.
• After every use of the juice extractor ensure that the On/Off switch is moved to the position "Off" ("0"). The motor must come to a complete stop before you begin to disassemble the appliance.
• Remove the power plug from the wall socket when the appliance is taken out of use, when removing components and before cleaning it.
• Do not use the appliance outdoors.

Assembling and operating the appliance

- Select a safe and secure positioning for the juice extractor. For optimal handling we recommend that the appliance is positioned with the power cable running from the rear of the appliance to the wall socket. All operating elements can now be directly and easily handled:

• at the front, the On/Off switch ⑨,
• to the left, the container for fruit pulp and vegetable mash 11
• to the right, the outlet pipe for the juice ⑥.

Warning:

Ensure that the appliance is switched off and the plug removed from the wall socket before assembling the appliance. If you do not, there is a great risk that you could injure yourself.

1. Place the juice catchment bowl ⑤ on the appliance base ⑦, so that the three tenons and the juice outlet ⑥ are securely caught in the recesses.
2. Place the filter 12 on the drive shaft 13 and press it down so that it perceptibly engages. Ensure that it is firmly seated before continuing with the assembly.
3. Place the housing lid ③ on the juice catchment bowl ⑤, so that the loading shaft ② is sitting above the cutters of the filter ⑫.
4. Ensure that the housing lid ③ is sitting firmly in the recesses of the juice catchment bowl ⑤. Lift the clasps ④ and hook them into the notches on the housing lid ③.
5. Press the lower part of the claps ④ against the appliance until they engage.
6. Slide the container for fruit pulp and vegetable mash ⑪ from below under the ejection shaft.
7. Push the foam separator plate in the separate juice collector 15 and then put the lid on. Place the separate juice collector 15 next to the appliance so that the juice outlet 6 projects into the juice collector 15.
8. Insert the power plug ⑧ into the wall socket.

Preparing the fruits/vegetables

• Important: Use only well ripened fruit, as otherwise the filter 12 could become quickly blocked. This would require repeated cleaning of the filter 12.
• Wash or peel the fruits/vegetables that you wish to process.
• Large seeds or stones should always be removed before filling the appliance.
• Stone fruit (such as apples, pears) can be processed with the skin and seed centres. Remove all other stones (peaches, plums etc.), all large seeds (melons etc.) and stalks to avoid possible damage to the appliance.
• Fruits and vegetables with thick peels (e.g. citrus fruits, melons, kiwis, beets) must always be peeled first.

• The main stalk is to be removed from grapes.
- Cut the fruit or vegetables into pieces that are sized to fit into the loading shaft ②.
- Before juicing, place the carrots in water for about 24 hours. Afterwards, guide them one after the other into the filling shaft ②: thereby, the thicker end of the carrot, where the leaves were, must be facing down and the thinner root tip must be upmost.

(i) Note:

Raisins are not suitable for juicing as they contain too little juice. Rhubarb or other fibrous vegetables/fruits are not suitable for juicing as the fibres block the juice extractor.

Juicing

Warning:

DO NOT operate the juice extractor for longer than 30 minutes (CO-Time) without a break. After 30 minutes of continuous use allow the juice extractor to cool down. Otherwise the appliance could be damaged.

Warning:

NEVER insert your hands or other objects into the loading shaft ② when working with the appliance. This could lead to grave personal injuries and/or serious damage to the appliance.

1. Switch the appliance on at the On/Off switch ⑨.

For fruit varieties that contain a lot of juice use speed setting 1.

For drier fruits select speed level II.

1. Hold the stodger ① in one hand and feed the fruit and vegetable pieces with the other hand into the loading shaft ②. ALWAYS use the stodger ① to carefully press the fruit/vegetable pieces into the loading shaft ②. Whilst the loaded fruit/vegetables are being processed, insert further pieces into the loading shaft. Do not switch the appliance off.

(i) Note:

To avoid fruit or vegetables becoming blocked in the loading shaft ②, only fill it when the appliance is switched on. Should fruit or vegetable pieces become stuck in the loading shaft ② and they cannot be promptly freed with the stodger ①, proceed as follows to avoid damage to the appliance:

• Immediately switch the appliance off and remove the power plug ⑧ from the wall socket.
• Loosen the clasps ④ and remove the housing lid ③.
• Remove the fruit or vegetable pieces causing the blockage.

• Reassemble the appliance and continue with juice extraction.

• Always switch the appliance off immediately after all of the fruit/vegetables have been processed.

Warning:

To avoid blockage of the juice outlet ⑥ and/or damage to the appliance, regularly clean the juice outlet ⑥ and juice container ⑤, and always after every usage.

Emptying the pulp container and the filter

You can extract juices continuously until the container for fruit pulp and vegetable mash ⑪ is completely full.

Warning:

Remove the plug from the power source when emptying the filter 12. This prevents an unintended starting of the motor.

When the extracted juices suddenly become thicker, or when you hear that the motor is running slower, the filter 12 must be emptied. When you have removed the fruit pulp/vegetable mash, reassemble the appliance.

Disassembly of the juice extractor

If you wish to disassemble the juice extractor, e.g. to clean it, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the power plug from the wall socket ⑧.
2. Open the clasps 4.
3. Remove the housing lid ③ with the stodger ①.
4. Carefully lift up the juice container ⑤. With this, the filter ⑫ releases itself from the drive shaft ⑬.
   You can now take the filter ⑫ out of the juice container ⑤.

Cleaning and Care

Warning:

ALWAYS remove the power plug from the wall socket before removing or installing accessories and before cleaning the appliance. To avoid blockage of the juice outlet and/or damage to the appliance, all appliance and ancillary parts must be regularly, and after every use, cleaned free of fruit pulp and vegetable mash.

(i) Note:

DO NOT use any aggressive cleaning agents to clean the juice extractor. The appliance and its ancillaries may not be cleaned in boiling water.

Warning:

To avoid receiving an electrical shock, NEVER submerse the motor/appliance base ⑦ in water or other fluids.

• Switch the appliance off at the On/Off switch ⑨.
• Soiling or overflowing fruit juices should be cleared away immediately, as fruit stains are difficult to remove later.
• For cleaning the appliance housing and the power cable, use a cloth that is only lightly moistened.
• Clean the stodger ①, the separate juice collector ⑮, the housing lid ③ and the container for fruit pulp and vegetable mash ⑪ in warm soapy water and then carefully rinse them off.

The stodger ①, the juice container ⑤, the housing lid ③, the separate juice collector ⑮ and the container for fruit pulp and vegetable mash ⑪ are suitable for cleaning in a dishwasher and can be cleaned there. To clean the filter ⑫, use the supplied nylon brush ⑭:

- Turn the lid of the stodger ① until the arrow points to the opened lock on the stodger shaft. You can now remove it. The nylon brush ⑭ is inside the stodger ①. To re-close the lid, place it on the stodger so that the arrow points to the opened lock. Then turn it until the arrow points at the closed lock ⑩ The lid now sits firmly.

- Hold the filter 12 (with the underside upwards) under running water and clean it with the nylon brush 14.

Colouring:

- Some fruits or vegetables could permanently discolour parts of the juice extractor. This is not damaging and does not impair the appliance in its functions.

Storage

If you do not intend to use the juice extractor for an extended period, wrap the cable around the cable rewind 10 on the underside of the appliance.
