We design and manufacture consumer products with the safety
of you, our valued customer, foremost in mind. In addition we
ask that you exercise a degree of care when using any electrical
appliance and adhere to the following precautions.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USE AND SAVE
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

• Before using for the first

time please ensure that
your electricity supply is the
same as shown on the rating

appliance
includes a BS 13 amp
moulded mains plug on the
supply cord.

• Should you need to change

this plug, please complete
the rewiring as follows
(after safe disposal of the
moulded plug).

• Please note that a cut off plug

inserted into a socket is a
serious danger risk.

• As the colours of the wire

may not correspond with the
coloured markings which
identify the terminals in
your plug, please refer to
the following:

−The Blue wire must be

connected to the terminal
which is marked ‘N’.

−The Brown wire must be

connected to the terminal

PAge heAder.....WE RECOMMEND SAFETY FIRST

• Carefully read all instructions

before operation and save for
future reference.

• Remove any packaging

material and promotional
stickers and labels before
using the juicer for the
first time.

• Do not place the juicer near

the edge of a bench or table
during operation.
Ensure that the surface is
level, clean and free of water,
flour, etc. Vibration during
operation may cause the
appliance to move.

• Any significant spillage onto

the surface under or around
the appliance, or onto the
appliance itself, should be
cleaned and dried before
continuing to use
the appliance.

• Do not place the juicer on

or near a hot gas or electric
burner, or where it could
touch a heated oven.

• Always ensure the juicer is

properly assembled before
use. The appliance will not
operate unless properly
assembled. Refer to assembly.

• Do not leave the juicer

unattended when in use.

• Always ensure the juicer

is turned OFF by pressing
the OFF/ON switch on the
control panel to OFF. Then
switch the appliance OFF at
the power outlet and unplug
the cord. Make sure the
stainless steel filter basket
has stopped rotating and
the motor has completely
stopped before releasing
the safety locking arm and/
or attempting to move the
appliance, when the juicer
is not in use, and before
disassembling, cleaning
and storing.

• Do not operate the Juice

Extractor continuously
with heavy loads for more
than 10 seconds. Allow the
motor to rest for 1 minute
between each use. Recipes
in this instruction book are
not considered a heavy load.
However, hard fruits and
vegetables will put excess
strain onto the motor if a low
speed is selected. Please refer
to the juicing guide on page
12 to determine the correct
speed for the fruits and
vegetables selected
for juicing.

ASSEMBLING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE

BEFORE FIRST USE

Before using your juicer for the first time,
remove any packaging material and
promotional stickers and labels. Ensure the
appliance is switched off at the power outlet
and the power cord is unplugged.

Wash the filter bowl surround, Nutri Disc™,
juicer cover, Froojie™ Disc, Nutri Juicer™
Plus insert, food pusher, pulp container and
juice jug and lid in warm, soapy water with
a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly. The
motor base can be wiped with a damp cloth.
Dry thoroughly.

FOR USE WITH JUICE EXTRACTOR

1. Place the motor base on a flat, dry

surface such as a bench top. Ensure
that the motor base is switched OFF
at the control panel, then switch the
appliance off at the power outlet and
unplug the cord.

2. Place the filter bowl surround on top

of the motor base.

3. Align the arrows at the base of the

Nutri Disc™ with the arrows on the
motor drive coupling and push down
until it clicks into place. Ensure the
Nutri Disc™ is fitted securely inside
the filter bowl surround and onto the
motor base.

bowl surround, positioning the feed
chute over the juice disc and lower
into position.

5. Raise the safety locking arm up and

locate it into the two grooves on
either side of the juicer cover. The
safety locking arm should now be in
a vertical position and locked into
place on top of the juicer cover.

6. Slide the food pusher down the

feed chute by aligning the groove
of the food pusher, with the small
protrusion on the inside top of the
feed chute. Continue to slide the
food pusher down into the
feed chute.

NOTE

container with a plastic freezer bag to
collect the pulp. Pulp can then be used
in other dishes, or as compost for the
garden or discarded.

8. Place the juice jug provided under

the spout on the right-hand side of
the juicer. The juice jug lid can be
used to avoid any splatter.

Alternatively you can fit the
custom-designed juice nozzle over
the juice spout and place a glass
underneath. The juice nozzle will
prevent splatter, ensuring mess
free juicing.

7. Place the pulp container into

position by tilting the base of the
pulp container away from the motor
base and slide the top of the pulp
container over the bottom of the
juice cover. Tilt the base of the pulp
container back into the motor base
ensuring it is supported by the
container support extending from
under the motor base.
