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.

ELECTRICAL CORD

a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided

to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and

may be used if care is exercised in their use.

c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,

1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,

2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and

3) 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.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualiﬁed personnel or in Latin America by an authorized service center.

Note: The maximum wattage is obtained with the centrifugal juicer attachment. Other recommended attachments draw signiﬁcantly less power.

How to Use

This product is for household use only.

GETTING STARTED

• Remove all packing material and, if applicable, any stickers from the product. Remove and save literature.

• Please go to www.prodprotect.com/applica to register your warranty. For additional information and recipes for your product go to www.juiceman.com.

• Take the appliance apart following instructions in DISASSEMBLING THE CITRUS JUICER and wash all removable parts as instructed in CARE AND CLEANING. This will remove any traces of dust or residue left from manufacturing and shipping.

Important: Do not rinse or immerse base in water or any other liquid.

• Once assembled place the appliance on a level dry space, allowing air space on all sides to provide proper ventilation for the motor.

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 ﬂavor.

• 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 all citrus fruits, including oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes, tangerines.

Note: The oil in the skin of these fruits tastes bitter and is difﬁcult to digest. Hint: Although the skin may be left on melons and pineapple, you may choose to

remove them to maximize the fruit ﬂavor in the ﬁnished drink.

• All pits and large seeds should be removed from fruits, including apricots, cherries,

nectarines, mangoes, peaches, plums, 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.

2. Place the large food pusher into the feed chute, matching the indentations on the food pusher to the projections on the feed chute.

Note: Use the smaller opening for small fruits and vegetables. Use the small food pusher to help guide the fruits and vegetables through the opening in the large food pusher.

3. When using larger pieces of fruits and vegetables, replace the small food pusher into the large food pusher and use the assembled piece to help guide the larger fruits and vegetables through the feed chute. Match the notches to the opening. The clear center will drop into the slot; turn the top clockwise until the small pusher is locked in place.

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 overﬁll while using the machine. Turn the appliance off (0), wait for the motor to stop running and any juice to stop ﬂowing. 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 beneﬁts, 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 ﬁber and ﬂavor to mufﬁns and quick breads. Use it to thicken soups, casseroles and sauces. Use fruit pulp to add nutrition and ﬂavor 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 qualiﬁed 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, mufﬁns, 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.

NOTE: If needed the Open/Close latch can be removed for cleaning. Remove the Open/Close latch while in the open ( ) position. Turn the pulp container upside-down. Locate the back of the latch where it connects with the pulp container. Then press in the tab at the back of the latch (see arrow) while pulling up. (see E)

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 ﬁlter, use cleaning brush provided to make sure tiny holes in mesh

ﬁlter are not clogged. This can be accomplished by holding ﬁlter under a running faucet while brushing the mesh ﬁlter screen from both the inside and outside of the ﬁlter 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

• 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 juicer parts.

Important: Never use ammonia or abrasive cleansers!

2. After soaking overnight, lightly scrub with soft bristle brush and liquid detergent.
