Note: The reamer may turn both clockwise and counter-
clockwise during the juicing and stirring process. This is normal.
8. When it appears all the juice has been extracted, press the ON/OFF switch to stop the lemonade maker. Allow
unit to sit for a couple of minutes so the juice in the juice collector can drip down into the pitcher.
9. Unplug unit and lift the motor housing, juice collector, and reamer off the pitcher.
10. Place the serving cover on the pitcher tightly so the strainer area, see Fig. A, is aligned with the pitcher spout.
The juice is ready to serve. Hold the pitcher handle as you pour.
The cover is intended to fit snugly. For easy removal, hold the pitcher handle and using your thumb gently push
up on the cover to lift it off.
Helpful Hints
• For best juice extraction, use fruits that are room temperature rather than right from the refrigerator.
• If juicing several pieces of fruit, it is recommended that you periodically clean the reamer to remove excess pulp
and seeds. This allows the juice to flow through the juice collector more efficiently.
• Because this juice maker is sensitive to heat, do not add hot or boiling water to the pitcher. Also do not wash in
dishwasher.
• For larger pieces of fruit, such as grapefruit and oranges, you will need to move the fruit around the reamer while
pressing down, so all of the fruit can make contact with the reamer.
• For best results, choose juice oranges, such as Valencia oranges, for orange juice. They will yield more juice
than navel oranges.

Care and Cleaning

2. Remove fruit pulp and seeds from reamer. Then, wash all parts except the motor housing in warm, sudsy wa
ter.
Do not wash parts in a dishwasher. Wipe the motor housing with a damp cloth to clean.
Never immerse the motor housing in water or any other
liquid.
