Before using for the first time

The juice extractor comes almost completely assembled in the box.

1.Your extractor may be shipped with a protective cardboard insert between the clear cover and the blade basket. Remove this and any other protective packaging before using your juice extractor.

2.Following the disassembly instructions, remove the food pusher from the feed tube, then the cover, juice bowl with stainless steel blade basket.

3.Wash all removable parts (food pusher, clear cover, juice bowl, pulp basket, and juice pitcher with lid) in warm water with a biodegradable, non-abrasive liquid detergent. Rinse well and air-dry. This will eliminate any traces of dust or residue from manufacturing

or shipping.

Caution: Use care when handling the blade basket. Hold the basket’s rim only.

Do not touch the cutter blades on the bottom of the basket. The cutter blades are very sharp! Caution: Never rinse or immerse the motor base in water or any other liquid.

Assembly instructions

Warning: Always make sure the juice extractor is unplugged before starting assembly.

Important: The juice extractor is equipped with a safety system that prevents the extractor from being turned on unless the unit is completely and properly assembled.

1.Rotate the locking clamp so that it sits at the front of the base (see figure 2).

2.Place the juice bowl on top of the motor base so that the juice spout fits into the cut out at the front of the base (see figure 3).

Caution: Use care when handling the stainless steel blade basket.

Hold the basket’s rim only. Do not touch the cutter blades on the bottom of the basket. The cutter blades are very sharp!

3.Set the stainless steel blade basket onto the motor hub in the center of the juice bowl (see figure 3). Press down on the blade basket’s outer rim until it drops into place and is securely seated. Gently rotate the blade basket to ensure that it turns freely. If initially it fails to seat, this should slip it into place. Double check by pressing down on the rim and spinning it again.

4.Align the cover so that the pulp cover fits over the back of the base. Fit the tab of the cover into the slot on the top of the juice bowl (see figure 4).

5.Turn the food pusher so that the groove in the side lines up with the tab in the feed tube. Insert the food pusher into the feed tube (see figure 5). Store the food pusher in the feed tube of the lid until the produce is ready to juice.

6.Push the locking clamp up and over the lid. Hold clamp firmly and push until the two black clamp locks rest in the 2 locking slots on the top of the lid. Make sure the lid is clamped securely into place (see figure 6).

7.Add the pulp basket (see figure 7). Tilt the pulp basket slightly so that the lip of the juice bowl fits snugly over the inside of the pulp basket. Push the bottom of the pulp basket so that it rests securely on its platform. Important: to avoid spillage, make sure the pulp basket sits flush up against the base.

Note: to save cleaning time, line the pulp basket with a plastic grocery store produce bag.

8.Make sure the anti-drip spout is properly open (see figure 8).

9.Add the juice pitcher lid to the juice pitcher so that the lid’s cut out fits over the pitcher’s pouring spout. Tilt the juice pitcher slightly so that the extractor’s juice spout fits into the top of the pitcher lid (see figure 7). This will prevent juice spillage.

Preparing­ fruits and vegetables for your juice extractor

•Clean all produce thoroughly, using a natural bristle brush. If you are not using organic produce, we recommend using a biodegradable cleaner to help remove pesticide residue.

•Remove and discard the outer leaves of non-organic produce and peel any waxed fruit or vegetable.

•Trim away any discolored or bruised sections.

•The skin may be left on all produce (including pineapple and melons) except oranges, grapefruit, and tangerines. The oil found in these skins tastes bitter and is difficult to digest.

•Remove melon seeds when possible, as they may escape through the top of the feed tube while juicing. The pits of fruits such as cherries, pears, and peaches should also be removed.

•Cut produce into pieces small enough to fit into the feed tube. Use the food pusher to gently direct produce through the tube. NEVER PUSH PRODUCE INTO THE FEED TUBE WITH YOUR FINGERS.

•It may be necessary to cut hard produce (carrots, beets, pineapple, etc.) into smaller pieces to facilitate juicing.

•Leafy greens, parsley, wheat grass, and sprouts should be bunched up into a small, tight ball and pushed through with either a carrot or the food pusher.

•Bananas are not suitable for juicing; a clear juice cannot be obtained from them and residue left in the machine can clog the micro-mesh screen.

•For best results when juicing apricots, plums, pears, peaches, and tomatoes, produce should be firm.

•When juicing apples, add a small amount of fresh lemon or lime to help slow down the browning process.

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

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

Operating instructions

Dual Speed Control

Your juice extractor offers 2 speed options that ensure optimal rpm to provide maximum juicing efficiency. Note: Efficiency describes the amount of juice extracted from your produce.

HIGH: Turn the HIGH/OFF/LOW dial to HIGH.

Use for harder produce, such as carrots, beets, and pineapple (with rind). Also recommended for leafy or stringy produce such as celery and greens.

OFF: Turn the HIGH/OFF/LOW dial to OFF to stop operation. LOW: Turn the HIGH/OFF/LOW dial to LOW.

Use for softer produce such as citrus, apples, grapes (with stems), melons, peaches (remove pit), and tomatoes. LOW is recommended for ripe produce that has become soft.

Important: The juice extractor is equipped with a safety system that prevents the Extractor from being turned on unless the unit is completely and properly assembled.

1.Assemble the juice extractor following the assembly instructions described in this manual.

2.Have all fruits and vegetables prepared for juicing.

3.Plug the unit into a 120v ac electrical outlet.

4.Remove the food pusher from the feed tube.

5.Place produce into the feed tube. Use the food pusher to gently direct through the feed tube and blade basket with the food pusher.

6.Turn the HIGH/OFF/LOW dial to HIGH to juice harder produce.

7.Turn the HIGH/OFF/LOW dial to LOW to juice softer produce.

Note: When juicing a combination of hard and soft produce, such as beets, carrots and apples, you will want to use HIGH for beets and carrots and LOW for the apples. You do not have to turn the machine OFF to change speeds. Simply turn the dial to change to the appropriate speed for each type of produce being juiced.

Tip: To ensure maximum efficiency, alternate types of produce.

SO-311752_13454_BELLA-700W Juicer White_Macy's IM.indd 5

2014-06-11 5:34 PM

8.Do not operate juice extractor for longer than 40 seconds at a time when juicing heavy loads; if necessary, allow the juice extractor to cool down for 2 minutes afterwards.

9.When juicing is completed, turn the HIGH/OFF/LOW dial to OFF.

10.Slide the pitcher out from the juice spout. Serve juice immediately for the freshest flavor and highest nutritional value.

11.Remove the pulp basket and save or discard pulp.

Note: The pulp from your juice extractor can be used in many different applications such as breads, muffins, cakes, soup stocks, compressed facial packs and garden compost material.

12.Unplug the juice extractor from the outlet after use.

13.Follow disassembly instructions described in this manual; all removable parts should be rinsed and cleaned after each use. Clean the juice extractor following the procedures described in the care & cleaning instructions.

Disassembly instructions

Warning: always make sure juice extractor is unplugged before starting disassembly.

1.Remove the pulp basket and juice pitcher.

2.Lift the locking clamp up and off the 2 clamp locking slots on the cover. Rest the locking clamp at the front of the unit.

3.Lift juice extractor cover up and off the juice extractor.

4.Grasping the pulp spout in one hand and the back of the juice bowl in the other, loosen and lift the juice bowl and blade basket off as one piece. These 2 parts will then easily separate for easy cleaning.

Caution: Use care when handling the blade basket. Hold the basket’s rim only. Do not touch the cutter blades on the bottom of the basket. The cutter blades are very sharp!

5.Please follow the procedures outlined in the care & cleaning instructions for specific cleaning instructions.

User maintenance instructions

This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Any servicing that requires disassembly other than cleaning must be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.

Care & cleaning instructions

1.Unplug from outlet. Please follow the procedures outlined in the disassembly instructions to remove parts before cleaning.

2.Clean unit and parts after each use.

3.Do not immerse the motor base in water or spray it with water. Clean only by wiping with a damp sponge, cloth, or paper towel. Use any liquid dishwashing detergent but do not use products containing ammonia or scouring powders. These products will dull, scratch or mar the surface.

4.If any juice has spilled under the juice extractor, clean legs and area with a lightly soaped sponge, then dry. Use a damp toothbrush or cloth to clean juice from inside the motor hub on top of the motor base.

5.All parts (except the blade basket and motor base) are washable in warm, soapy water or in the dishwasher.

6.When cleaning the blade basket, make sure the tiny holes in the basket are not clogged. This can be accomplished by holding the blade basket under running water faucet. Rub a plastic scrub pad in a circular motion to clean the basket holes from both inside and outside of the blade basket.

Caution: Use care when handling the blade basket. Hold the basket’s rim only. Do not touch the cutter blades on the bottom of the basket. The cutter blades are very sharp!

Note: If necessary, allow the blade basket to soak in hot water with 10% lemon juice added.

7.The juice extractor clear cover, juice bowl, pulp basket, juice pitcher and juice pitcher lid may be washed in the top rack of a dishwasher. However, washing with warm (not hot) tap water on a daily basis should be sufficient.

8.Due to the powerful staining properties of the carotenoids that are found in many vegetables, especially carrots, we suggest soaking stained parts overnight in any of these 4 cleaning solutions:

•Biodegradable soap in enough warm water to cover juice extractor parts

•1 part warm water to 1 part cider vinegar

•1/2 small box baking soda in enough warm water to cover parts.

•Warm water with 10% lemon juice solution.

Caution: Never use ammonia or abrasives.

• Lightly clean with a sponge or kitchen rag and liquid detergent after soaking. Warning: Never submerge the motor base in water or other liquid!
