PREPARATION
How to prepare fruits and vegetables for juicing.
Purchasing and Storing Ingredients:
• Always use fresh fully ripened fruits and vegetables.
• When purchasing consider selecting fruits and vegetables in season for best
freshness and avor.
• Choose fruits that are plump, tender and have bright color. Fruits should be
heavy for their size without bruises, cuts or blemishes.
• To ripen fruit, place in a small clean paper bag. Close the bag loosely and
let stand at room temperature. (To speed ripening, add a ripe apple or
banana to the bag.) Once ripened, store in the refrigerator for a day or 2 until
ready to use.
• Store perishable vegetables in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Preparing Fruits and Vegetables for the Juice Extractor:
• Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly just before using in the juice extractor
using a natural bristle brush and a biodegradable cleaner to help remove
pesticide residue.
• If desired, remove the skin. The skin may be left on all produce with the
exception of:
o All citrus fruits, including
• Oranges
• Grapefruit
• Lemons
• Limes
• Tangerines
Note: The oil in the skin of these fruits tastes bitter and is difcult to digest.
Hint: Although the skin may be left on melons and pineapple, you may choose to
remove them to maximize the fruit avor in the nished drink.
• All pits and large seeds should be removed from fruits, including:
o Apricots
o Cherries
o Nectarines
o Mangoes
o Peaches
o Plums
o Melons
• Remove and discard outer leaves of non-organic produce. Peel away any
wax coatings.
• Trim any bruised or discolored sections of fruits and vegetables.
• The design of the feed chute accommodates larger produce. It will easily
accommodate most whole fruits and vegetables, such as, apples, beets,
carrots and celery. If necessary, cut into large pieces before inserting into
feed chute.
• Be sure all parts of the juice extractor and clean and dry. See the CARE AND
CLEANING instructions section of the manual on page 12.

JUICE EXTRACTOR TIPS
• Do not put food into the extractor before turning the appliance on.
• Let the appliance run for at least 10 seconds before placing any food into the
feed chute.
• Do not let the juice or pulp container overll while using the machine. Turn
the appliance off (0), wait for the motor to stop running and any juice to stop
owing. Empty the juice and/or pulp container. Be sure they are properly
replaced before resuming operation of the extractor.
• Do not process bananas, avocados or coconut. They have no juice and will clog
the appliance.
• Be sure to remove all pits and large seeds from fruits.
• For maximum nutritional benets, drink your processed juice right a way.
FOR OPTIMUM JUICING
• Avoid excessive build up of pulp on the underside of the lid.
• Remove rind of melons; because they are so thick, they water down drinks.
• Refrigerate washed ripe fruits and vegetables until ready to use.
USES FOR THE PULP
The pulp from the fruits and vegetables is high in nutritional value. Use it to add
ber and avor to mufns and quick breads. Use it to thicken soups, casseroles
and sauces. Use fruit pulp to add nutrition and avor to desserts, such as,
puddings and cakes. Be sure to use it the same day you extract the juice.
Pulp is also food for your garden. You can use it as compost.

Care and Cleaning
This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualied service
personnel.
Important: Always unplug your juice extractor from the outlet before cleaning.
CLEANING
1. Disassemble the appliance following the instructions for disassembly.
Tip: Pulp from integrated pulp container can be used in many different ways:
making breads, mufns, cakes, soup stocks, compressed facial packs and garden
compost material. See USES FOR THE PULP.
2. Using a sponge or damp cloth, clean the base, feet and underside of the
appliance. If necessary, you may use a damp toothbrush or cloth to clean juice
from the inside the motor shaft (on top of motor base).
Important: Do not immerse the base in water or spray with water. Clean only by
wiping with a damp sponge, cloth or paper towel.
3. All parts – except the base – are dishwasher-safe (top-rack only) or you may
wash in warm, soapy water, using any mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Do
not use any products containing ammonia or scouring powders, as these can
dull, scratch or mar the surface. Use the cleaning brush provided to remove
pulp left on any of the removable parts. Do not use metal brushes or pads.
4. To clean the food pusher properly, twist to unlock and remove the small food
pusher from the large food pusher. Clean with other removable parts; once
parts are dry, put back together.
5. To clean the lter, use cleaning brush provided to make sure tiny holes in
mesh lter are not clogged. This can be accomplished by holding lter under a
running faucet while brushing the mesh lter screen from both the inside and
outside of the lter mesh with the cleaning brush.
REMOVING TOUGH STAINS
1. Due to powerful staining properties of carotenoids found in many vegetables,
particularly carrots, we suggest soaking any stained parts overnight in one of
the following solutions:
• Biodegradable soap in enough warm water to cover juice extractor parts
• ¼ cup bleach added to a sink full of warm water
• 1 part warm water to 1 part cider vinegar
• ½ small box of baking soda in enough warm water to cover juicer parts.
Important: Never use ammonia or abrasive cleansers!
2. After soaking overnight, lightly scrub with soft bristle brush and liquid
detergent.
STORAGE
Store your appliance in a clean, dry place. Never wrap cord tightly around the
appliance. Do not put any stress on cord where it enters juicer, as this could
cause cord to fray and break.
