TIP

To minimize clean up, place a plastic freezer bag (or plastic grocery bag) into the Pulp Container to collect the pulp.

Place the provided Juice Jug under the spout on the right hand side. Ensure the Juice Jug Lid is used to avoid any splatter.

NOTE

A glass could also be used to collect juice.

OPERATING

your Breville Juice Extractor

OPERATING THE JUICE EXTRACTOR

1. Wash and prepare your selection of fruit

and/or vegetables :

Fruits with hard or inedible skins such as citrus fruit, melons and kiwi fruit should be peeled before juicing. Pineapple can be juiced with or without the rind removed.

Fruits with pits, hard seeds or stones such as nectarines, peaches, mangoes, apricots, plums and cherries must be pitted before juicing.

2. Ensure the Juice Extractor is correctly

assembled with the Safety Locking Arm securely locked into the vertical position and the Juice Jug under the spout.

NOTE

As a safety precaution, the Juice Extractor will not operate if the Safety Locking Arm is not securely locked into the vertical position.

3. Plug the power cord into a 230V/240V

power outlet. Then turn the power on at the outlet. The START | STOP button surround will illuminate.

NOTE

The button surround will illuminate for 2 minutes before entering standby mode. To re-activate the Juice Extractor out of stand-by mode, press or turn the START | STOP button.

OPERATING THE JUICE EXTRACTOR

4. Rotate the speed control dial to

the desired speed. Use the speed selector table on page 14 as a guide for juicing different fruit and vegetables. For your convenience, a juicing speed guide is also printed on the inside of the Pulp Container.

NOTE

The SMOOTHIE, ICE and PULSE settings can only be selected when the appliance is assembled as a blender.

5. Push the START | STOP button. With

the motor running and while the Food Pusher, gently guide food down the Feed Chute. Do not exert excess pressure. To extract the maximum amount of juice, always push the Food Pusher down slowly.

IMPORTANT:

Do not load the Feed Chute with food until the motor is running.

TIPS

• A small amount of lemon juice can be added to the fruit and/or vegetables to inhibit browning.

• When juicing herbs, sprouts or leafy green vegetables, either wrap them together to form a bundle or juice them in the middle of a combination of ingredients on low speed to obtain the best extraction. If only juicing herbs or leafy green vegetables, the juice yield will be low due to the nature of centrifugal juicing. It is advised to juice them with a combination of other fruits and vegetables.

• When juicing different ingredients of varying textures, start with the softer textured ingredients on low speed then change to high speed for harder textured ingredients. This assists in extracting the maximum amount of juice by clearing the Filter Basket between ingredients.

6. As fruits and vegetables are processed,

juice will ﬂow into the Juice Jug and the separated pulp will accumulate in the Pulp Container.

NOTE

The Pulp Container can be emptied during juicing by turning the Juice Extractor off and then carefully removing the Pulp Container. Replace the empty Pulp Container into position before continuing to juice. Do not allow the Pulp Container to over-ﬁll as this may affect the operation of the appliance.

OPERATING THE JUICE EXTRACTOR

7. Immediately after each use, use the

provided nylon brush to thoroughly clean the ﬁne mesh holes of the Filter Basket and rinse the remaining removable parts under running water. For more cleaning information, refer to ‘Cleaning the Juice Extractor’ on page 20.

The Breville Juice & Blend is ﬁtted with protection devices as a safety precaution to prevent both personal injury and damage to the appliance.

OVERLOAD PROTECTION

This protection device safeguards against overloading the motor with excessive loads.

If overloading occurs, the Overload Protection will automatically de-activate the motor. When this occurs, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and press the OVERLOAD RESET button found on the underside of the Motor Base. This will reset the Overload Protection, enabling you to reconnect the power cord to the wall outlet and recommence normal use.

OVERHEAT PROTECTION

This protection device safeguards against overheating of the motor with excessive loads.

If overheating occurs, the START | STOP button surround will ﬂash red and the Overheat Protection will automatically de-activate the motor. When this occurs, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and allow the appliance to cool for at least 15 minutes. Then reconnect the power cord to the wall outlet and recommence normal use.

ELECTRONIC PROTECTION

This protection device will automatically de-activate the motor if the motor is stalled.

If the motor stalls, the START | STOP button surround will ﬂash red and the Electronic Protection will automatically de-activate the motor. When this occurs, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and clear the Feed Chute. Either too much food is being processed at one time or the pieces are not small enough. Try trimming food, cutting food into smaller pieces of even size and/ or processing a smaller amount per batch. Then reconnect the power cord to the wall outlet and recommence normal use.

DISASSEMBLING

your Breville Juice Extractor

CLEANING

your Breville Juice Extractor

PAGE HEADER.....CLEANING THE JUICE EXTRACTOR

Always ensure that the juicer is switched off, the power is switched at the power outlet and the power cord is unplugged from the power outlet before cleaning, disassembling or assembling and storing the appliance.

1. Immediately after each use, use the

provided nylon brush to thoroughly clean the ﬁne mesh holes of the Filter Basket. Brush the inside of the Filter Basket under running water, holding it up towards a light to ensure the ﬁne mesh holes are not blocked. If the holes are blocked, soak the Filter Basket in hot water with 10% lemon juice to loosen the blocked holes. Alternatively, immediately after each use, wash the Filter Basket in the dishwasher then allow to air dry.

TIP

If the Filter Basket cannot be cleaned immediately after use, soak the Filter Basket in hot soapy water immediately after juicing is complete. If pulp is left to dry on the Filter Basket, it may clog the ﬁne mesh holes, thereby lessening the effectiveness of the Juice Extractor.

Do not soak the Filter Basket in bleach.

WARNING

The Filter Basket contains a titanium reinforced cutting disc with ultra sharp blades and teeth. Do not touch blades and teeth when handling the Filter Basket.

2. Wash the Filter Bowl Surround, Juicer

Cover, Food Pusher, Juice Jug, Juice Jug Lid and Pulp Container in warm soapy water with the provided nylon brush or a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Alternatively, place these parts, excluding the Food Pusher, in the dishwasher.

NOTE

Do not wash the Food Pusher in the dishwasher.

TIP

Discoloration of the plastic parts may occur with strongly colored fruit and vegetables. To help prevent this, wash parts immediately after use.

If discoloration does occur, the plastic parts can be soaked in 10% lemon juice and water or they can be cleaned with a non abrasive cleaner.Do not soak the Filter Basket in bleach.

3. Wipe the Motor base with a soft damp

cloth and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive scouring pads or cleaners when cleaning the Motor Base as these may scratch the surface. Wipe any excess food particles from the power cord.
