Other Consumer Safety Information

This product is intended for household use only.

WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This product is provided with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

The strainer is a delicate screen. If bent or damaged, do not use, as it could break into small pieces and cause personal injury and/or damage the appliance. Call our toll-free customer service number to order a new strainer. Replace strainer when it shows signs of wear.

Parts and Features

How to Assemble

BEFORE FIRST USE: After unpacking the juice extractor, remove cardboard from strainer and wash everything except the base in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry immediately. Never immerse the base in water or other liquids; wipe it with a damp sponge.

Make sure that this unit is unplugged before assembling. While pressing the RELEASE button, place the juicer chute onto the base by twisting counterclockwise. Twist the auger clockwise into position inside the juicer chute.

Slide the strainer over the auger.

Place the juicer cap over the strainer by twisting counterclockwise.

Place the funnel on top of the juicer chute.

Slide froth separator into corner of juice container. This prevents any foam from pouring into the juice.

Place the juice container onto the base ledge.

Place the pulp container on the counter next to the juice container.

How to Use

WARNING Pinch Hazard.

Never use fingers to push food down the feed chute or to clear the feed chute. Always use the food pusher provided.

Wash fruits and vegetables.

NOTE: Most fruits and

vegetables will need to be cut. It is recommended that fruits or vegetables such as oranges, melons, or mangoes are peeled before placing in unit to minimize impact on juice flavor.

This juicer will automatically shut off after 30 minutes of continuous operation or if overloaded. To reset, push the ON button.

NOTE: A rubbing noise may be noticeable when product is first turned on. This is normal and does not indicate a problem with the product. Noise will be reduced once juicing begins.

Ensure that unit is correctly assembled (see page 5). Place the juice container under the juice spout and the pulp container next to the juice container.

Plug in juice extractor. Press ON button.

With the motor running, place

food down the juicer chute. Using food pusher, gently guide food down juicer chute. To extract the maximum amount of juice, always push food pusher down slowly.

Juice will flow into juice container and separated pulp will accumulate in pulp container.

NOTE: Pulp container can be emptied during juicing by pressing the ON button and then removing the pulp container. (Replace empty pulp container before continuing to juice.)

Juicing Tips, Techniques, and Recipes

PURCHASING AND STORING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES:

Always wash fruits and vegetables before juicing.
Always use fresh fruits and vegetables for juicing.
- To save money and obtain fresher produce, purchase fruits or vegetables that are in season.
- Keep your fruits and vegetables ready for juicing by washing them before storing.
- Most fruits and hardier-type vegetables can be stored at cool room temperature. More delicate and perishable items such as tomatoes, berries, leafy greens, celery, cucumbers, and herbs should be stored in the refrigerator until required.

PREPARING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES:

• It is recommended that fruits or vegetables such as oranges, melons, or mangoes are peeled before placing in juice extractor to minimize impact on juice flavor.
• All fruits with pits and large seeds such as nectarines, peaches, apricots, plums, and cherries MUST be pitted before juicing.

USING THE PULP:

• The remaining pulp left after juicing fruits or vegetables is mostly fiber and cellulose which, like the juice, contain vital nutrients necessary for the daily diet and can be used in many ways.
  However, pulp should be used that day or else frozen for later use.
• There are a number of recipes that use pulp. You can also use pulp to thicken casseroles or soups.
• Pulp is great used in the garden for compost.

SOY MILK, ALMOND MILK, AND RICE MILK:

Your juice extractor may be used to make soy milk, almond milk, and rice milk. One cup of soybeans, almonds, or rice must be soaked in four cups (946 ml) of water for 24 to 48 hours in the refrigerator. Slowly pour one cup of the soaked mixture at a time into the food chute. The liquid extracted from the soaked mixture is the "milk."

NOTES:

• Almonds must be soaked 24 to 48 hours before juicing.
• Soy milk should be boiled to improve the flavor.
• Vanilla, honey, and sugar may be added to enhance the flavor of each milk type.

Test Kitchen Tip: Use just the seeds of a pomegranate for juicing as the membranes will make the juice bitter. To deterd the pomegranate, start by making a thin slice from the bottom to make it stable for cutting. Cut out the core at the top. Make shallow cuts to section into 6 wedges. Gently break the pomegranate apart and pry the seeds out with your fingers. Pomegranate juice can stain, so we suggest wearing gloves and something like an old T-shirt. Work over a bowl to catch the seeds and drips before placing in the juice extractor.

Troubleshooting

PROBLEM PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

Motor appears to stall when juicing.	The juicing action may be too vigorous. Try slower juicing action by pushing the food pusher down more slowly. Refer to page 6, Step 3 or press REVERSE button to dislodge food.
Excess pulp building up in the micro-mesh strainer.	Juicer never taken apart and cleaned. Too much food juiced before cleaning with brush. Unplug. Remove strainer and clean mesh walls with a fine brush. This will remove excess fiber buildup which could be inhibiting the juice flow.
Pulp is too wet and insufficient juice is produced.	Try a slower juicing action. Unplug. Remove strainer and clean mesh walls with a fine brush. This will remove excess fiber buildup which could be inhibiting the juice flow.
Juice sprays out of spout.	Try a slower juicing action by pushing the food pusher down more slowly. Refer to page 6, Step 3.
Juice drips out of spout immediately after juicing.	With motor ON, raise and lower food pusher in feed chute several times. The action forces remaining pulp and juice out of the strainer.
Food won't move in food chute.	Food is stuck in the juicer chute. Press REVERSE button to allow food to move in juicer chute.
Juicer will not work. • Juicer has been operating for 30 minutes or more. Press ON button to reset and begin juicing.
