CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Do not immerse the motor housing 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 any products containing ammonia or scouring powders, as these products will dull, scratch or mar the finish.
For easy cleanup, use the cleaning brush to remove excess pulp from the micro-mesh juice filter basket and citrus juicing basket after each use. Vegetable and fruit residue will harden if left to dry on the unit parts, making them more dif­ficult to clean. One side of the provided cleaning brush is designed to scrape the pulp out of the filter basket and the other side is used to brush the basket clean.

NOTE: For best juicing results, the mesh
filter basket 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
Juice Extractor
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 pro-
duce. 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 off-season, 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 juice extracting. 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.
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.
