SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

(For 120 & 127 Volts Only)

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug fits a polarized outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. 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 defeat this safety feature.

If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be the same as that of your juicer. The extension 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.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare your fruits and vegetables by washing them thoroughly and peeling off those that need the skin removed.

2. Prepare the fruits and vegetables by cutting them into smaller pieces to ensure they will fit in the chute.

3. Make sure your juice extractor is properly assembled. Please follow the instructions from the section “Before Using Your Juice Extractor.”

4. Ensure the juice extractor and its accessories are clean by following the cleaning and maintenance section of this manual.

5. Place the jar or any other container/glass you may wish to use to collect the juice under the spout and make sure the pulp collector is in place prior to begin juicing. Do not allow the pulp collector container to overfill as this may cause the unit to stall.

6. Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet and turn the unit on “I.”

7. Once the juicer is on, place the fruits and vegetables on the food chute and use the food pusher slowly to drive them down. In order to extract the maximum amount of juice, it is important to push the food pusher slowly.

8. The juice extractor will separate the juice and the pulp in the jar and pulp collector while you are juicing.

NOTE: Both the pulp container as well as the jar can be emptied during juicing by turning the juice extractor off “O.” Make sure to place both containers back in place before you resume juicing.

NEVER USE HAND OR FINGERS TO PUSH FOOD DOWN THE FOOD CHUTE OR TO CLEAR THE FOOD CHUTE. ALWAYS USE THE FOOD PUSHER PROVIDED.

AFTER USING YOUR JUICE EXTRACTOR

Before cleaning and storing your juice extractor, follow the instructions below to disassemble the unit:

Figure 1

• Turn juice extractor off “O” and unplug it from the electrical outlet (Figure 1)

Figure 2

• Remove the jar and the pulp collector container by tilting it slightly (Figure 2)

WARNING:

TO CUT AND PROCESS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES. DO NOT TOUCH BLADES WHEN HANDLING THE FILTER BASKET.

THE STAINLESS STEEL FILTER BASKET CONTAINS SMALL SHARP BLADES

CLEANING

• After disassembling all removable parts of the juice extractor, wash them by hand with warm soapy water or in the dishwasher (top shelf only). If the pulp dries out in the pulp collector container, the filter or the filter basket, let it soak in water for approximately 10 minutes before washing it

• Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth

• It is very important to keep the filter very clean, free of residues blocking the holes in order to ensure optimal performance. Use a nylon brush to clean it thoroughly, if necessary. If the holes in the mesh remain blocked, soak the filter in hot water with a water solution with 10% lemon juice

NOTE: DO NOT IMMERSE THE MOTOR BASE IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.

MAINTENANCE

• Some plastic parts might stain when in contact with some fruits and vegetables for too long. In order to avoid this from happening, all parts should be washed immediately after each use

PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS

PROBLEM SOLUTION

Juice Extractor will not work after switching on “I”

Motor makes loud noise and unit starts vibrating

Motor appears to stall when juicing

Too much pulp build up on stainless steel filter

Pulp too wet and reduced juice extraction

Juice leaks between the rim of the Juicer and Cover the Filter.

• Safety locking arms may not be locked properly in its position

• Turn off and unplug unit and ensure all parts are assembled properly

• Turn off and unplug unit and check if there are any residues blocking the unit

• Turn off and unplug unit and ensure all parts are assembled properly

• Juicing overripe fruits may produce too much pulp and clog the filter. Turn off and unplug unit and clean the filter thoroughly

• If pulp starts building up under the lid, slow down the juicing process. Turn off and unplug unit and clean the filter basket, the stainless steel filter and the lid

• Follow the instructions to disassemble the unit included in the “After Using Your Juice Extractor” section. Clean up pulp from the filter

• Try a slower juicing action. Remove stainless steel mesh filter and thoroughly clean mesh with a nylon brush. Rinse the filter basket with hot water. If the fine mesh holes are blocked, soak the basket in a solution of hot water with 10% lemon juice to unblock the holes or wash in the dishwasher. This will remove excess fiber build up (from fruit or vegetables), which could be reducing the flow of juice

• Try a slower juicing action by pushing the Food Pusher down slower

TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS

• Do not place any fruits or vegetables until you turn the unit on. Allow unit to run for at least 10 seconds before you start juicing

• Do not allow the pulp container to overfill as this may prevent correct operation or damage the unit

• Ensure to remove large pits from fruits such as peach, mango, etc as they can damage the unit

• You can use a plastic bag inside the pulp collector container to avoid having to clean it

• Do not use bananas or avocados as they do not contain juice and will clog the unit. You can use a blender to add them to the juice

• You can use the pulp of the juices you prepare in a variety of ways. The pulp from fruits and vegetables contains high amounts of fiber and cellulose, which are essential for a healthy and well balanced diet. You can use the pulp to thicken soups, bulk up rissoles and thicken casseroles or to enhance your desserts. Make sure to use the pulp the same day you juice to avoid loss vitamins
