Safety Features
POLARIZED PLUG (120V models only)
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.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning: This appliance is equipped
with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.
This product is for household use only.
Always make sure juicer cover is clamped securely in place before motor is turned on. Do not unfasten clamps while juicer is in operation.
Be sure to turn dial to OFF position after each use of your juicer. Make sure the motor stops completely before disassembling.
Do not put your fingers or other objects into juicer opening while it is in operation. If food becomes lodged in opening, use food pusher or other piece of fruit or vegetable to push it down. When this method is not possible, turn the motor off and disassemble juicer to remove the remaining food.
Do not use this appliance if the rotating sieve is damaged.
Do not operate the juice extractor without pulp container in place.
Keep the appliance clean; refer to care and cleaning section of this manual.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
ELECTRICAL CORD
1)
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,
a) The marked electrical rating of the
extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
b) If the appliance is of the grounded type,
the extension cord should be a grounding­type 3-wire cord, and
c) The longer cord should be arranged so
that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Note: If the power cord is damaged, please contact the warranty department listed in these instructions.

ASSEMBLING YOUR COMPACT JUICER
Important: Always make sure juicer is unplugged before
starting to assemble.
Step 1: Place the pulp separator on the base.
Step 2: Place the filter basket into the pulp
separator, pressing down to secure it in place.
caution: Handle carefully; the filter basket is sharp!
Step 3: Slide pulp container into the motor base
until it snaps into place.
Step 4: Place the lid on top of the pulp separator
over the filter basket and insert the food pushers into the feed chute.
There are two food pushers to accommodate
a variety of foods. Place the small bean­shaped pusher inside the large pusher when using the large pusher.
Step 5: Lock the locking latches:
a. Press down on the lid b. Fit the top of each latch into the groove on
each side of the lid

USING YOUR COMPACT JUICER
1. Assemble your juicer as instructed in “Assembling Your Compact Juicer”
2. Turn the anti-drip spout clockwise to open the spout.
3. Plug the juicer in and select your speed using the dial a. High Speed – best for harder fruits and vegetables b. Low Speed – best for softer fruits and vegetables
4. Place food in the feed chute and use one of the two pushers to guide food towards the strainer, using gentle pressure.
a. The small bean-shaped pusher is best for small fruits and vegetables.
Its unique shape guides produce towards the center of the strainer, where it is spinning the fastest, therefore aiding in maximum extraction. b. The large pusher is round to help accommodate most fruits and vegetables. The large pusher also acts as the feed chute when you are using the small pusher.
Tip: Alternate fruits and vegetables to get the most juice and blend the flavors! Important: Never place fingers or hands into the feed chute.
5. When the pulp container is almost full, turn off and unplug the unit. Empty the pulp container and clean the filter basket before you start juicing again.
Caution: The filter is very sharp; handle carefully.
6. When you are done juicing, turn the dial to OFF and unplug the juicer.
7. Twist the anti-drip spout counterclockwise to close the spout and prevent dripping.
8. Enjoy your juice!

caution: The filter basket is very sharp. Handle carefully.
4. Wipe the base with a damp cloth or sponge; never immerse the juicer base in water or other liquid.
Note: Carotenoids that are found in many vegetables, particularly carrots,
may cause staining. We recommend soaking any stained parts overnight in one of the following solutions:
Biodegradable soap in enough warm water to cover juice extractor parts
1 cup bleach added to a sink full of warm water
1 part warm water to 1 part cider vinegar
Small box of baking soda in enough warm water to cover juicing parts.
After soaking overnight, lightly scrub with a soft bristle brush and liquid detergent.
STORAGE:
Store your juicer in a clean dry place. Do not wrap the cord tightly around the juicer or put stress on the cord where it connects to the juicer.
TROUBLESHOOTING

minutes and plug back in for normal operation.
problem Possible cause Solution
Juice extractor is turned on but will not run
Juicer makes loud noises and begins to vibrate.
Motor seems to stall.
Pulp is too wet and not enough juice is being extracted.
Juice leaks between the pitcher and the lid
Safety lock may not be closed securely
Soft foods may have clogged the filter
Juicing may be too vigorous and/or pulp has built up under the cover.
May be pushing foods too quickly through the chute.
Juice pitcher may not be properly placed. Juicing action may be too fast.
Turn the juicer off and unplug. Make sure everything is properly attached and parts are clean and free of food remnants.
Turn the juicer off and unplug. Remove the filter and clean it with a brush to remove all food particles
Turn the juicer off and unplug. Remove the filter and clean with a brush to remove food particles. Clean the lid and continue to juice.
Use the pusher as a guide; do not use pressure. Turn the juicer off and unplug. Clean the filter and soak in a solution of hot water and lemon juice to remove any excess fiber from the strainer. You may also wash in the dishwasher top rack only.

JUICING TIPS & TRICKS:
When juicing carrots, do not overfill the feed chute.
Place carrots one at a time and use gentle pressure to guide them through the feed chute.
It is not recommended to juice avocados or
bananas as these foods naturally do not contain juice. They will produce a paste rather than a juice. However, we recommend adding your fresh juice to a blender with avocados or bananas and ice for a delicious smoothie!
For best results, refrigerate fruits and vegetables
before juicing.
For the most nutritional benefit, enjoy your juice
immediately after juicing. If you are taking it to go or storing it for later, we suggest using a vacuum sealed container and storing it in the refrigerator.
Do not store juice for more than 24 hours.
Tip your juice extractor forward to help any
remaining juice drain from the bowl. Simply unplug and carefully tip the juicer forward into your glass.
Bunch leafy vegetables into tight rolls before juicing.
Juice leafy greens first and follow with additional fruits and vegetables to help push the greens towards the filter.
Add lemon juice to freshly extracted juice to help
preserve the coloring and bring out the natural flavors of the fruits and vegetables.
Add a small spoonful of the pulp to your juice for an
addition of fiber.
Pour fresh juice into ice cube trays, freeze and use
to flavor your water.
Freeze the leftover pulp for use in soups and stocks.

Let the juicer run for at least ten seconds before
placing any food into the chute.
For easy clean up, line the pulp container with a
plastic bag.
