SAFEGUARDS
When using any electrical appliance, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including
the following:
1. Read instructions thoroughly.
2. Always unplug unit from outlet when not
in use, before putting on or removing parts
and before cleaning.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not
immerse the juice extractor motor housing
in water or other liquids.
4. When any appliance is used by or near
children, supervise closely.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. If the juice extractor has a damaged cord
or plug or malfunctions, DO NOT OPERATE.
Contact our Customer Service Center to return
for examination, repair or adjustment.
7. Using accessory attachments not sold or
recommended by the manufacturer can cause
fire, electric shock or injury.
8. Do not allow the power cord to come into
contact with any hot surfaces, including stove,
or to hang over table edge or counter.
9. Before turning the motor on, always make sure
juice extractor cover is properly positioned and
securely in place. Do not open cover while the
juice extractor is in operation.
10. Switch to OFF position after each use and be
sure the motor stops completely before
disassembling.
11. Do not put fingers or other objects into the
juice extractor opening while it is in operation.
If food becomes stuck in the opening, use
food pusher or another piece of fruit or
vegetable to push it down, or turn the motor
off and disassemble the unit to remove the
remaining food.
12. If the mesh filter-basket/blade is damaged, do
not use.
13. Always make sure the juice extractor cover
is properly positioned and secured before
motor is turned on. If it is not, the safety
interlock will not operate. Do not loosen
cover while the juice extractor is in use.
14. Not designed for outdoor use.
15. Appliance should be plugged into a 120V
household outlet only.
16. The appliance is wired for domestic use only.
17. Do not use the appliance for anything other
than the intended purpose, as outlined in the
instruction booklet.
18. Never juice with the spout in the closed
position.
19. Do not operate without the pulp container in
place.
20. This unit comes with a resettable thermal
device to prevent damage to the motor in
the case of extreme overload. Simply
unplug the unit, rest it for 30 minutes and
continue.
21. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance
garage or under a wall cabinet. When storing
in an appliance garage always unplug the
unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so
could create a risk of fire, especially if the
appliance touches the walls of the garage or
the door touches the unit as it closes.
SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
No user-serviceable parts are inside. Do not
attempt to service this product.
Maximum rating is 400 watts.
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce
the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a long cord. AN EXTENSION CORD
MAY BE USED WITH CARE: HOWEVER, THE
MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT
LEAST AS GREAT AS THE ELECTRICAL RATING
OF THE JUICE EXTRACTOR.
The extension cord should not be allowed to drape
over the countertop or tabletop, where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully
into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt
to modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm,
do not use that outlet.

containing ammonia or scouring powders, as these
products will dull, scratch or mar the finish.
For easycleanup, use cleaning brush to
removeexcess pulp from the filter/sieve and the
lidafter each use.Vegetables and fruits will harden
if left to dry on the unit parts, making it harder to
clean.

following Disassembly Instructions on this page.
WARNING: Be careful when handling the mesh
filter basket/blade, as blades are very sharp.
2. Rinse all removable parts with cold water.

basket/blade must always be thoroughly
cleaned after each use.
4. Towel dry all parts.
5. Any other servicing should be performed by an
authorized service representative.
TIPS AND HINTS
• Extracted juice captures about 95% of the nutrients
from fresh fruits and vegetables. Drinking extracted
juice is a fast and efficient way for your body to
digest and absorb all of those nutrients. Digesting
whole fruits can take about an hour; extracted
juices take only 15 minutes.
• Freshly extracted juices are an excellent aid in
weight management and in cleanses, which rid
the body of toxins.
• Always use fresh, organic and seasonal produce.
Organic produce is grown without synthetic fertilizers and chemicals, which is very important when
juicing whole foods. Buying foods in season is
considerably less expensive than purchasing offseason, and flavors are much better.
• Wash all fruits and vegetables immediately after
purchasing and store them in the refrigerator.
This way they are ready to juice at any time.
• Always juice fresh fruits and vegetables as soon
as possible after purchasing. The longer produce
is held, the more nutrients it loses.
• Fresh juices should be consumed immediately.
They lose nutrients as they sit.
• Certain fruits should be peeled before juicing.
Examples are pineapples, melons, mangoes,
papayas, citrus – any fruit with skin that you cannot eat. Also remove all pits and hard seeds from
peaches, cherries, mangoes, etc.
• Citrus fruit juice is delicious and creamy, and
richer in nutrients.
• If cucumbers are waxy, peel them before juicing.
• Juice the softer ingredients before the harder
ones.
• When juicing herbs or leafy greens, juice them
in the middle of a combination of ingredients in
order to extract the greatest amount of juice.
• Use your taste to guide you on fruit and vegetable
combinations for juices. The recipes provided
are a guideline, but the possibilities are endless.
TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM SOLUTION
Experiment to discover your favorite combinations.
• Carrots make a great and tasty base for vegetable
juices, and apples do the same for fruit juices.
• Beets and carrots both have a naturally high sugar
content, so when added to vegetable juices they
can balance out any bitter flavors juiced vegetables may have.
• Use your Compact Juice Extractor in tandem with
your blender. Blend fresh juices with ingredients
like bananas, yogurt, and protein powders for
delicious power smoothies.
• It is also possible to make a healthier, fresher
version of your favorite cocktail with fresh juices.
• Blend fruit juices with sparkling water or seltzer to
make a natural soda.
• The pulp that is separated from the juice has its
own health benefits. It is high in fiber and can
be used in a variety of ways. See our recipes as
guides on how you can incorporate the fibrous
pulp into your diet.

• The safety bar is not engaged. (See Assembly Instructions, page 4.)
• Press On/Off button to start juicing.
• Make sure the spout is opened all the way.
• Excess pulp in mesh filter basket can slow juice rate. Stop the juice
extractor and clean filter basket.
• Place them between other ingredients.
• Make sure the spout is closed all the way.
• Make sure the mesh filter basket/blade is in place.
