Breville recommends safety first Breville recommends safety first continued
We at Breville are very safety conscious. 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:
Carefully read all instructions before operation and save for future reference.
- Remove and safely discard any packaging material or promotional labels before using the Juice Fountain™ Plus for the first time.
- To eliminate a choking hazard for young children, remove and safely discard the protective cover fitted to the power plug of this appliance.
- Do not place the Juice Fountain™ Plus 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 Juice Fountain™ Plus on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or where it could touch a heated oven.
- Always ensure the Juice Fountain™ Plus is properly assembled before use. The appliance will not operate unless properly assembled. Refer to assembly and operation (Page 7 to 9).
- Do not use the Juice Fountain™ Plus on a sink drain board.
- Do not leave the Juice Fountain™ Plus unattended when in use.
- Always ensure the Juice Fountain™ Plus 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 Juice Fountain™ Plus is not in use, and before disassembling, cleaning and storing.
- Do not operate the appliance 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 10 to determine the correct speed for the fruits and vegetables selected for juicing.
- Keep hands, fingers, hair, clothing as well as spatulas and other utensils away from the appliance during operation.
- Do not push food into the feed chute with your fingers or other utensils. Always use the food pusher provided. Do not place hand or fingers into the food chute when it is attached to the appliance.
- Be careful when handling the stainless steel filter basket as the small cutting blades at the base of the filter basket are very sharp. Mishandling may cause injury.
- Do not use the Juice Fountain™ Plus for anything other than food and/or beverage preparation.
- Keep the appliance clean. Refer to care and cleaning (Page 14) Important safeguards for all electrical appliances

Trouble shooting guide
| Possible problem | Easy solution |
| Machine will not work when switched 'ON' | The safety locking arm may not be correctly engaged in the vertical operating position with the locking arm located into the two grooves on either side of the juice cover (page 8 step 5). |
| Motor appears to stall when juicing | Wet pulp can build up under the juicer cover if the juicing action is too vigorous. Try slower juicing action by pushing the food pusher down more slowly (page 11 step 4) Follow Disassembling and Cleaning instructions and clean the filter bowl surround, the stainless steel filter basket and the juicer cover. |
| The Juice FountainTM Plus will automatically stop operating if the motor is stalled for more than 10 seconds. Either too much food is being processed at one time or the pieces are not small enough. Try trimming the food or cutting into smaller pieces of even size and processing a smaller amount per batch. To continue juicing, reset the Juice FountainTM Plus by pressing the 'On/Off' switch on the control panel back to 'Off' then turn the appliance back on by pressing 'On/Off' switch to 'On'. | |
| Hard fruit and vegetables will put excess strain onto the motor if a low speed is selected. Please refer to the juicing guide on Page 10 to determine the correct speed for the fruit and vegetables selected for juicing. | |
| Excess pulp building up in the stainless steel filter basket | Stop the juicing process and follow Disassembling instructions. Remove the juicer cover, scrape off pulp, reassemble and begin juicing again. Try alternating (soft and hard) vegetables and fruit varieties. |
| Pulp too wet and reduced extracted juice | Try a slower juicing action. Remove the stainless steel filter basket and thoroughly clean mesh walls with a cleaning brush. Rinse the filter basket under hot water. If the fine mesh holes are blocked, soak the basket in a solution of hot water with 109 lemon juice to unlock the holes or wash in the dishwasher. This will remove excess fibre build up (from fruit and vegetables) which could be inhibiting the flow. |
| Juice leaks between the rim of the Juicer and the juicer cover | Try a slower juicing speed and push the food pusher down the feed chute more slowly (page 10). |
| Juice sprays out from spout | The juice is being extracted too fast – try a slower juicing speed and push the food pusher down the feed chute more slowly (page 10). |
| Overheating with excessive loads. | The juicer is fitted with a safety device which safeguards against overheating with excessive loads. If overheating occurs, the juicer will automatically activate the overload protection device and the unit will switch itself off. When the overload protection is activated, unplug the Juicer from the power outlet for at least 15 minutes to allow the unit to cool. Then plug the juicer into the power outlet and use as normal. |
Tips on Juicing
The inside information on juicing
Although the juice drinks contained in this booklet were developed with flavour, texture and aroma at the forefront, the health benefits certainly add to the pleasurable taste experience.
95% of the nutrient content of fruit and vegetables is found in the juice. Liquids extracted from fresh fruit and vegetables form an important part of a well-balanced healthy diet. Fresh fruit and vegetables juices are an easy source of vitamins and minerals. Juices are rapidly absorbed into the blood stream therefore being the quickest way in which the body can digest nutrients.
When you make your own fruit and vegetable juices, you have complete control over what is included. Select the ingredients and decide if you need to add sugar, salt or other flavouring agents after juicing. Freshly extracted juices should be consumed immediately after they have been processed to avoid a loss of vitamin content.
Purchasing and storage of fruit and vegetables
• Always wash fruit and vegetables before juicing.
• Always use fresh fruit and vegetables for juicing.
- To save money and obtain fresher produce, purchase fruit or vegetables that are in season. Refer to the Fruit and Vegetable Facts chart (page 19-20).
- Keep your fruit and vegetables ready for juicing by washing and drying them before storing.
- Most fruits and hardier type vegetables can be stored at room temperature. The more delicate and perishable items such as tomatoes, berries, leafy greens, celery, cucumbers and herbs should be stored in the refrigerator until required.
Preparation of fruit and vegetables
- If using fruits with hard or inedible skins such as mangoes, guava, melons or pineapple, always peel before juicing.
- Some vegetables, such as cucumbers can be processed unpeeled depending on the softness of the skin and the juicing requirements.
- All fruits with large piths, hard seeds or stones such as nectarines, peaches, mangoes, apricots, plums and cherries must be pitted before juicing.
- Ensure vegetables such as beetroot, carrots, etc. have all soil removed, are well washed and trimmed of leaves before juicing.
- Ensure fruits such as strawberries are hulled before juicing and pears have their stalks removed.
- Citrus fruit can be juiced in the Juice Fountain™ Plus but remove the skin and excess pith before juicing.
- A small amount of lemon juice can be added to apple juice to reduce discolouration.
Your Juice Fountain™ Plus makes invigorating, frothy orange juice. Simply peel the oranges and remove any excess pith before juicing. It is best to refrigerate oranges before juicing.

Tips on Juicing continued
Fruit and vegetable facts
The right technique
When juicing a variety of ingredients with varying textures, start with the softer texture ingredients on low speed and then gradually change to high speed for the harder textured ingredients.
If you are juicing herbs, sprouts or other leafy green vegetables, either wrap them together to form a bundle or juice them in the middle of a combination of ingredients on low speed to obtain the best extraction.
If juicing herbs or leafy green vegetables on their own, the juice yield will be low due to the nature of centrifugal juicing. It is advised to juice them with a combination of other fruit and vegetables.
Note
All fruit and vegetables produce different amounts of liquids. This varies within the same group i.e. one batch of tomatoes can produce more juice than another batch. Since juice recipes are not exact, the precise quantities of any juice are not crucial to the success of a particular mixture.
To extract the maximum amount of juice always push the food pusher down slowly.
Getting the right blend
It is easy to create great tasting juice. If you have been making your own vegetable or fruit juices, then you know how simple it is to invent new combinations. Taste, colour, texture and ingredient preferences are a personal choice. Think of some flavours and foods – would they work well together or would they clash. Some strong flavours could over power the more subtle flavours of others. It is however, a good rule to combine starchy, pulpy fruit and vegetables with those high in moisture.
Using the pulp
The remaining pulp left after juicing fruit and vegetables is mostly fibre and cellulose which, like the nutrients in juice, are necessary for the daily diet and can be used in many ways. However, like the juice, pulp should be used that day to avoid loss of vitamins.
There are a number of recipes contained in this book for the use of pulp (page R12). Apart from these, pulp can be used to add bulk to rissole mixtures, thicken casseroles or soups, or with fruit pulp, simply place in a heat-proof bowl, top with meringue and bake in the oven for a simple dessert.
Apart from consumption use, pulp is great to create compost for the garden.
When using the pulp, there may be some pieces of fruit or vegetables remaining. These should be removed before using the pulp in any recipes.
