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 finish 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: carrots, gingerroot, beets and pineapple (with rind).

LOW (1)

Best for softer produce: citrus fruits, apples, grapes (with stems), melons, peaches (put removed) and tomatoes. This speed setting is also recommended for ripe produce that has become soft.

OFF (0)

Turns juicer off.

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

lid. To release pulp, lightly tap on

 

side of lid. Always empty pulp

 

basket when it becomes full. This

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

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.
