SAFETY FIRST

At Breville we are very safety
conscious. We design and
manufacture consumer
products with the safety of you,
our valued customer, foremost
in mind. In addition we ask
that you exercise a degree of
care when using any electrical
appliance and adhere to the
following precautions.

IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS

CAREFULLY READ
ALL INSTRUCTIONS
THOROUGHLY BEFORE
OPERATING AND SAVE
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

When using electrical
appliances, basic safety
precautions should always
be followed, including the
following:

• To protect against fire,
electrical shock and injury to
persons, do not immerse the
appliance, motor base, cord
or plug in water or any other
liquid.

2

• Close supervision is necessary
when the appliance is used by
or near children.

• Unplug from outlet when not in
use, before putting on or taking
off parts, and before cleaning
or attempting to move the
appliance.

• Avoid contact with moving
parts.

• Regularly inspect the supply
cord, plug and actual appliance
for any damage. Do not
operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug or after
the appliance malfunctions,
or is dropped or damaged
in any manner. Contact
Breville consumer support for
assistance.

• The use of attachments not
recommended or sold by
Breville may cause fire, electric
shock or injury.

• This appliance is for household
use only. Do not use this
appliance for anything other
than its intended use. Do not
use in moving vehicles or
boats. Do not use outdoors.
Misuse may cause injury.

• Do not let the power cord hang
over the edge of a table or
counter-top.

• Do not let the power cord touch
hot surfaces, including stove, or
become knotted.

• Always make sure the juicer
cover is clamped securely in
place (with safety locking arm)
before the motor is turned on.
Do not unfasten the clamps
(safety locking arm) while the
juicer is in operation.

• Always ensure the juicer is
turned off after each use.
Make sure the filter basket has
stopped rotating and the motor
has completely stopped before
disassembling.

• Do not push food into the feed
chute with your fingers or other
utensils. Always use the food
pusher provided.Do not place
hand or fingers into the food
chute when it is attached to
the appliance. If food becomes

Nutri Disc™ or puree disc is thoroughly
cleaned before each use. Ensure you place
the Juice Jug (or glass) under spout before
commencing juicing.

juicing different fruit and vegetables. Push
the START | STOP button and the Juicer
will automatically start.

5. With the motor running, place food into the
feed chute using 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.

6. As fruits and vegetables are processed juice
will flow into the juice jug and the separated
pulp will accumulate in the pulp container.
The pulp container can be emptied during
juicing by turning the juicer OFF at the
control panel and then carefully removing
the pulp container. Replace the empty pulp
container into position before continuing
to juice.

with a produce bag to collect the pulp.
Pulp can be used in other dishes, or as a
compost for the garden or discarded.

USING THE PUREE DISC

When using the puree disc, puree will flow into
the juice jug. There will be no pulp extracted
into pulp container.

SELF-RESET OVERHEATING
PROTECTION

The Breville juicer also fitted with a self­resetting safety device which safeguards
against overheating on the motor with
excessive loads. If overheating occurs,
the juicer will automatically activate the
overheating protection device and the motor
will turn itself off. If this occurs, the light
surrounding the START | STOP button will
flash red. When the overheating protection is
activated, unplug the juicer from power outlet
for at least 15 minutes to allow the unit to cool.
Then plug juicer into the power outlet and use
as normal.

12

ELECTRONIC PROTECTION

The Breville juicer will automatically stop
operating if the motor is stalled. This is an
electronic safety feature. 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.
If this occurs, the light surrounding the
START | STOP button will flash red.
To continue juicing, turn the power OFF at the
control panel, clear the feed chute, finally turn
the appliance back on by pressing the START |
STOP button to ON.

PROTECTION button and the unit will turn
itself off.
If this occurs, remove the plug from the outlet
and allow the unit to cool. Then press the
OVERLOAD PROTECTION Button found
on the bottom of the motor base. The safety
device will then be reset and the Breville juicer
is ready for use again.
