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 plug does not fit fully into outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify plug in any way.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Do not use an extension
cord with this product.
PLASTICIZER WARNING
Caution: To prevent plasticizers from migrating from the finish of the
countertop or tabletop or other furniture, place NON-PLASTIC coasters or
place mats between appliance and the finish of countertop or tabletop.
Failure to do so may cause the nish to darken. Permanent blemishes may
occur or stains can appear.
ELECTRIC POWER
If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may
not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from
other appliances.

Speed selection
This juicer has two speed options: LOW (1) and HIGH (2). These two
speeds ensure optimal RPM level, for maximum juicing efficiency
(efficiency describes amount of juice extracted from produce). Speeds are
selected simply by sliding the control switch to the desired setting.
HIGH (2)
Best for harder produce:
(with rind).
LOW (1)
Best for softer produce:
melons, peaches (put removed) and tomatoes. This speed setting is also
recommended for ripe produce that has become soft.
OFF (0)
Turns juicer off.
carrots, gingerroot, beets and pineapple
citrus fruits, apples, grapes (with stems),
Before First Use
Your juicer comes partly assembled in the box. We suggest taking it apart
and washing any removable parts in warm water with a biodegradable,
nonabrasive liquid detergent before first use. This will eliminate any
traces of dust or residue left from manufacturing and shipping.
Note: Be sure to remove all protective packaging before using your
juicer.
Caution: Never rinse or immerse motor base in water or any other
liquid.
Refer to ASSEMBLY and DISASSEMLBY INSTRUCTIONS. Make sure
juicer is properly and completed assembled before use. Juicer will not
turn on unless properly assembled.
Preparation
Preparing fruits and vegetables for juicing
• Clean all produce thoroughly, using a natural bristle brush. If you
are not using organic produce, we recommend using a biodegradable
cleaner to help remove pesticide residue.
• Remove and discard outer leaves of non-organic produce and peel
away waxing.
• Trim away any discolored or bruised sections.
• The skin may be left on all produce (including pineapples and melons)
except for oranges, grapefruit and tangerines. Oil found in these skins
tastes bitter and is difficult to digest.
• Remove melon seeds, when possible, as they may escape through top
of feed tube when juicing. Pits of fruits such as cherries, pears and
peaches should also be removed.
• Your juicer is designed to make juicing easier with an oversized feed
tube to accommodate larger produce, so you may feed most whole
apples and oranges, tangerines, ginger, beets, pineapple or melons.
Make sure produce can be fed comfortably into feed tube. Use food
pusher to gently direct produce through feed tube.
Caution: Never push produce into feed tube with your fingers.
• Leafy greens, parsley, wheat grass and sprouts should be bunched up
into a small, tight ball and pushed through with food pusher.
• Bananas are not suitable for juicing; clear juice cannot be obtained, and
residue left in the machine can clog micromesh filter screen.
• Produce such as apricots, plums, pears, peaches and tomatoes should
be firm, for best results when juicing.
How to Use
1. Make sure juicer is completely and properly assembled (see
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS). Filter basket should be securely seated
and pulp basket should be in place at the rear of juicer, ready to catch
pulp.
Tip: To reduce cleaning time, line pulp basket with a plastic produce bag
(the kind you put your produce in at the grocery store).
2. Place juice pitcher underneath juice spout.
3. Plug juicer into a standard electrical outlet.
4. Slide the control switch to the desired speed setting (LOW (1)
or HIGH (2)) and begin juicing.
Important: Juicer will not operate if lid locking lever is not properly
engaged.
Note: You may alternate between speeds while juicing, depending on the
appropriate settings for the various products being juiced (see SPEED
SELECTION).
5. Remove food pusher from feed tube.
6. With motor running, place produce into feed tube.
7. Reinsert food pusher into feed tube by aligning the groove on the food
pusher with the ridge inside the feed tube.
8. Use food pusher to gently direct food down feed tube.
Note: To extract the maximum amount of juice, press down gently on
food pusher. Do not force down.

Tip: Try alternating types of produce being juiced to ensure maximum
efficiency.
9. Once you have finished juicing, turn control switch to OFF (0). Be sure
to unplug juicer from the outlet, when not in use.
Tips for optimum juicing
To avoid excessive pulp Try juicing slower, as wet produce
buildup on the inside of the lid… is more likely to build up on the
lid. To release pulp, lightly tap on
side of lid. Always empty pulp
basket when it becomes full. This
will also help prevent pulp from
leaking into juice.
If excessive noise or vibrations Pulpmayhavebuiltuponlter

alternating different types of
produce while juicing.
Note: Due to its powerful motor,
a small amount of noise and/or
vibration is normal when juicer is
turned on, and as it comes to a
complete stop. All juicers will
sound slightly different.
To manage the amount of spray as Juice produce as slowly as
juice pours out the juice spout… possible to avoid excess pulp
buildup inside the lid and juice
bowl. Keep pulp basket emptied

Assembly Instructions
(For your reference, please refer to the assembly illustration on page 4.)
Important: Always make sure juicer is unplugged before starting
to assemble.
Step 1: Place juice bowl
Position the juice bowl over the motor base with the juice spout to
the right. Lower juice bowl onto motor base so that juice spout slides
through the oval ring on the motor base.
Step 2: Place filter basket
With both hands, grasp rim of filter basket and center it over motor base
hub inside the juice bowl. Carefully lower filter basket onto hub, rotating
slightly until it drops into place; press firmly down on rim of filter basket
to secure (be sure to apply equal pressure to both sides of filter basket,
to ensure proper seating). When seated properly, filter basket will spin
freely and will not lift out of the juice bowl.
Step 3: Place lid
Place lid on juice bowl so that the pulp ejection opening is positioned
over the pulp spout.
Step 4: Attach feed tube
Center feed tube over lid opening so that the safety lock hook on the feed
tube is slightly right of the arrow on the lid. Insert the three tabs located
around bottom of the feed tube into three corresponding slots in the lid
opening. Rotate feed tube counterclockwise until safety lock tab on feed
tube aligns with the arrow on lid.
Step 5: Secure lid locking lever
While pressing down on safety lock button, swing lid locking lever
upward until safety lock hook on the feed tube is engaged. Once the lid
locking lever is fastened in place, release the safety lock button.
Important: Juicer will not operate if the lid locking lever is not
properly attached.
Step 6: Position pulp basket
Slightly tilt pulp basket and place it directly beneath the pulp ejection
opening. Push the bottom of pulp basket inward so top edge slides up,
behind the pulp spout. Continue to press firmly on the bottom of the
pulp basket until it fits snugly against the motor base. When correctly
positioned, pulp basket will be completely covered by the lid.
Important: Juicer will not operate if the pulp basket is not properly
placed against the motor base.
