Frequently Asked Questions - JC900E GORENJE

How do I clean the JC900E juicer?

All removable parts (jug, lid, filter, pulp container) are dishwasher safe. For thorough cleaning, rinse immediately after use. The stainless steel filter can be cleaned with a brush.

Can I juice soft fruits like berries?

Yes, the JC900E handles soft fruits well. Use lower speed setting for berries to maximize yield. However, for very soft fruits, a masticating juicer may be more efficient.

What is the warranty period?

Gorenje offers a 2-year warranty for the JC900E against manufacturing defects. Register your product online to activate.

Can I juice wheatgrass?

The JC900E is a centrifugal juicer, which is not ideal for wheatgrass due to low yield. For wheatgrass, a masticating juicer is recommended.

Is the juicer BPA-free?

Yes, all plastic parts that come into contact with food are BPA-free.

How do I assemble the JC900E?

Place the motor base on a flat surface. Attach the pulp container, then fit the filter basket. Lock the lid, insert the feeding tube, and place the jug under the spout. Refer to manual for diagrams.

What is the max operating time?

Do not operate continuously for more than 2 minutes. Allow the motor to cool for 1 minute between uses.

Can I put whole apples in?

Yes, the feeding tube is 7 cm wide, so whole apples (up to 7 cm diameter) can be inserted without pre-cutting. For larger apples, cut them first.

How do I replace the filter?

The filter is a standard spare part. To replace, remove the lid, lift out the old filter, and insert the new one. Ensure it clicks into place. Contact Gorenje service for genuine parts.

Why is the juicer stopping during use?

The juicer has overload protection. If it stops, unplug and let it cool for 5 minutes. Also check for large pieces blocking the filter.

This guideline is the frame of a European-wide validity of return and recycling on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment.

Preparing for use

Wash all detachable parts (see chapter 'Cleaning').

Place the juice collector in the appliance. To place the pulp container, tilt it forwards

slightly. Insert the top end of the pulp container first and then push home the bottom end.

To empty the pulp container while you are juicing, switch off the appliance and carefully remove the pulp container.

Note: Reassemble the empty pulp container before you continue juicing.

Put the filter in the juice collector. Hold the lid over the filter and lower it into position.

Make sure the filter is fitted securely onto the driving shaft ('click').

Always check the filter before use. If you detect any cracks or damage, do not use the appliance.

Contact the nearest Gorenje service centre or take the appliance to your dealer.

Snap the two clamps onto the lid to lock it into place ('click'). Align the groove in the pusher with the small protrusion on the inside of the feeding tube and slide the pusher into the feeding tube.

Make sure the clamps are locked. Place the juice jug under the spout.

Using the appliance

The appliance only functions if all parts are assembled properly and the lid is properly locked in place with the clamps.

Wash the fruit and/or vegetables and cut them into pieces that fit into the feeding tube.

Make sure the juice jug is placed under the spout and the spout is in downward position.

Turn the control knob to setting 1 (low speed) or 2 (normal speed) to switch on the appliance.

Speed 1 is especially suitable for soft fruits and vegetables such as watermelons, grapes, tomatoes, cucumbers and raspberries.

Speed 2 is suitable for all kinds of fruits and vegetables.

Put the pre-cut pieces in the feeding tube and gently press them down towards the rotating filter with the pusher.

Do not exert too much pressure on the pusher, as this could affect the quality of the end result. It could even cause the filter to come to a halt.

Never insert your fingers or an object into the feeding tube.

After you have processed all ingredients and the juice flow has stopped, switch off the appliance and wait until the filter has stopped rotating.

Tips

Use fresh fruit and vegetables, as they contain more juice. Pineapples, beetroots, celery stalks, apples, cucumbers, carrots, spinach, melons, tomatoes, pomegranates, oranges and grapes are particularly suitable for processing in the juicer.

You do not have to remove thin peels or skins.

Only remove thick peels, e.g. those of oranges, pineapples and uncooked beetroots. Also remove the white pith of citrus fruits because it has a bitter taste.

When you prepare apple juice, remember that the thickness of the apple juice depends on the kind of apple you use. The juicier the apple, the thinner the juice. Choose a kind of apple that produces the type of juice you prefer.

Apple juice turns brown very quickly. To slow down this process, add a few drops of lemon juice.

Fruits that contain starch, such as bananas, papayas, avocados, figs and mangoes are not suitable for processing in the juicer. Use a food processor, blender or bar blender to process these fruits.

Leaves and leaf stalks of e.g. lettuce can also be processed in the juicer.

Drink the juice immediately after you have extracted it. If it is exposed to air for some time, the juice loses its taste and nutritional value.

To extract the maximum amount of juice, always press the pusher down slowly.

The juicer is not suitable for processing very hard and/or fibrous/starchy fruits or vegetables such as sugar cane.

Cleaning

Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive liquids such as alcohol, petrol or acetone to clean the appliance.

The appliance is easier to clean if you do so immediately after use.

Switch off the appliance. Remove the plug from the wall socket and wait until the filter has stopped rotating.

Remove the dirty parts from the motor unit.

Disassemble the appliance in the following order:

Remove the pulp container;

• Remove the pusher;
• Open safety lock and the clamps;
• Remove the lid.
• Remove the juice collector together with the filter.
• Clean all parts except the motor unit with the cleaning brush in warm water with some washing-up liquid and rinse them under the tap.

Note: All detachable parts are dishwasher-safe.

Place the detachable plastic parts on the top tray of the dishwasher. Make sure they are placed well away from the heating element.

Clean the motor unit with a damp cloth.

Never immerse the motor unit in water nor rinse it under the tap.

Environment

Do not throw away the appliance with the normal household waste at the end of its life, but hand it in at an official collection point for recycling. By doing this, you help to preserve the environment.
