WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one
wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only
one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally
tripped over.
The electrical rating of this appliance is listed on the bottom panel
of the unit.
The strainer basket is a delicate screen. If bent or damaged, do not
use, as it could break into small pieces and cause personal injury
and/or damage the appliance. Call our toll-free customer service
number to order a new basket. Replace basket when it shows signs
of wear.

Care and Cleaning
1
STRAINER BASKET
2DISHWASHER-SAFE
w CAUTION
Laceration Hazard.
The center of the strainer basket contains small, sharp blades to
process fruits and vegetables during the juicing function. Do not
touch blades when handling the strainer basket.
The cleaning brush included with the unit is the most effective way
to clean the strainer basket. Using the brush, hold the strainer basket
under running water and brush inside and outside of the basket.
Always treat the strainer basket with care; it can be damaged easily.
Discoloration of the plastic may occur with some fruit and vegetables.
To help prevent this, wash all parts immediately after use.
To assist with cleaning, soak the strainer basket in hot, soapy water
for approximately 10 minutes immediately after juicing is completed.
If pulp is left to dry on the basket it may clog the fine pores of the filter
mesh, thereby lessening the effectiveness of the juice extractor.
w WARNING
Shock Hazard.
Do not immerse motor base in water or any
other liquid.
DO NOT use the “SANI” setting
when washing in the dishwasher.
“SANI” cycle temperatures could
damage your product. Do not
place the motor base in the
dishwasher. Some part distortion
may occur if your household
dishwasher’s temperature is
higher than normal or if the
parts are placed too close to
the heating element.
• Always wash fruits and vegetables before juicing.
• Always use fresh fruits and vegetables for juicing.
• To save money and obtain fresher produce, purchase fruits or
vegetables that are in season.
• Keep your fruits and vegetables ready for juicing by washing
them before storing.
• Most fruits and hardier-type vegetables can be stored at cool
room temperature. More delicate and perishable items such as
tomatoes, berries, leafy greens, celery, cucumbers, and herbs
should be stored in the refrigerator until required.
PREPARING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES:
• It is recommended that fruits or vegetables such as oranges,
melons, or mangoes are peeled before placing in juice extractor
to minimize impact on juice flavor.
• All fruits with pits and large seeds such as nectarines, peaches,
apricots, plums, and cherries MUST be pitted before juicing.
Your juice extractor makes invigorating, frothy orange juice.
HINT:
Simply peel the oranges and juice. For best results, refrigerate oranges
before juicing.
The following drink recipes yield a single serving of 6 to 10 ounces (175–300 ml). If sugar or honey is listed, add to juice after juicing.
2 apples
1/4 cup (60 ml) blueberries
1 orange, peeled
Orchard Blend
2 apples
2 pears
USING THE PULP:
• The remaining pulp left after juicing fruits or vegetables is mostly
fiber and cellulose which, like the juice, contain vital nutrients
necessary for the daily diet and can be used in many ways.
However, like the juice, pulp should be used that day to avoid
loss of vitamins.
• There are a number of recipes that use pulp. You can also use pulp
to thicken casseroles or soups.
• Pulp is great used in the garden for compost.
SOY MILK, ALMOND MILK, AND RICE MILK:
Your juice extractor may be used to make soy milk, almond milk, and
rice milk. One cup of soybeans, almonds, or rice must be soaked in
four cups of water for 24 to 48 hours in the refrigerator. Slowly pour
one cup of the soaked mixture at a time into the food chute.
The liquid extracted from the soaked mixture is the “milk.”
NOTES:
• Almonds must be soaked 24 to 48 hours before juicing.
• Soy milk should be boiled to improve the flavor.
• Vanilla, honey, and sugar may be added to enhance the flavor of
each milk type.

PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
• The locking latches may not be correctly engaged. Check to see if the locking latches are properly
positioned in the two grooves on either side of the juice cover. Refer to page 5, Steps 3 and 4.
This machine is equipped with motor overload protection. If the motor stops during operation due
•
to overheating, unplug and allow it to cool down for 15 minutes. Plug machine back in after 15
minutes to resume normal operation.
• The juicing action may be too vigorous. Try slower juicing action by pushing the food pusher down
more slowly. Refer to page 6, Step 3.
• Wet pulp can build up under the juicer cover or pulp container. Turn unit OFF and unplug. Empty the
pulp bin; then clean juice cover and strainer basket.
• Turn OFF and unplug. Remove strainer basket and clean mesh walls with a fine brush. This will remove
excess fiber buildup which could be inhibiting the juice flow. Refer to pages 7 and 8.
• Try a slower juicing action.
• Turn OFF and unplug. Remove strainer basket and clean mesh walls with a fine brush. This will remove
excess fiber buildup which could be inhibiting the juice flow. Refer to pages 7 and 8.
• Try a slower juicing action by pushing the food pusher down more slowly. Refer to page 6, Step 3.
• With motor ON, raise and lower food pusher in feed chute several times. The action forces remaining
pulp and juice out of strainer bowl.
