USER MANUAL 221044 Hendi

Dear Customer, Thank you for purchasing this Hendi appliance. Please read this manual carefully before connecting the appliance in order to prevent damage due to incorrect use. Read the safety regulations in particular very carefully.

1. THE SLOW JUICING DIFFERENCE

Slow Juicing allows you to consume more fruits and vegetables in one glass than you could eat at one time. There is no oxidation or separation in slow juicing, so it preserves more of the organic nutrients from the food and keeps it closer to its natural state. Fresh juice from a slow juicer is ab- sorbed directly into the body, allowing the intake of important vitamins and nutrients from your food - your body receives everything it needs for optimum health. In addition, you can create a wide variety of juice recipes to enjoy from fruits and vegetables you may not normally enjoy eat- ing whole. The Slow Juicer uses a 2-step process in which the juice is extracted from the fruit or vegetable twice before it enters your glass. The auger, the main component of the unit, precisely squeezes the food without shredding or grinding it, helping you to get more juice in your glass. The Slow Juicer produces fresh and healthy juice that’s packed with more vitamins and nutrients needed for everyday living. In addition, the Slow Juicer uses less energy, saving you money and helping to lower your carbon footprint. One glass and you’ll experience first-hand the difference between store-bought juice and fresh, healthy goodness.

4. SLOW JUICER COMPONENTS

The Slow Juicer is virtually assembled straight out of the box. We suggest taking it apart and washing the removable parts in warm water with non-abrasive liquid detergent before the first use. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and allow to air dry. This will eliminate any traces of dust or residue from manufacturing or shipping. Never submerge the Slow Juicer motor base in water or any other liquid.

1. Assemble the bowl to the base. (Figure 1)

a. Make sure the bowl fits all the way into the shell of the base. b. Align the arrow on the bowl with the arrow on the base, twist clockwise slightly to lock. (Note: If the bowl is not completely locked onto the base, the machine will not start.) Fig. 1

2. Assemble the Strainer and Rotating Basket to the bowl. (Figure 2)

a. Make sure the deep pit on the strainer basket lines up with the red dot on the bowl. Fig. 28

3. Place the Auger in the center of the bowl. (Figure 3)

Twist the Auger clockwise until it drops into place. Fig. 3

4. Place the Food Chute onto the bowl.

a. Make sure the tilt-out triangle of the Food Chute is aligned with the unlocked sign on the bowl. (Figure 4) b. Turn the Food Chute clockwise until the lid clicks into the locked position. (The arrow on the Food Chute will line up with word CLOSED on the motor base. (Figure 5) Fig. 4 Fig. 59

1. Once all parts are securely in place, connect the

power cord to an approved power source.

2. Place one of the collectors under the pulp ejec-

tor, and either a glass or the other collector un- der the juice spout.

3. The Slow Juicer has 3 settings (Figure 6)

a. ON - this starts the motor for juicing. b. O - this stops operation. c. R - this moves the Auger in the opposite direction. Fig. 6

4. Before placing food in the Slow Juicer, make sure

all foods have been thoroughly washed, if food has to be peeled, there is no need to wash. Also make sure to cut all foods to an appropriate size so it easily fits into the Food Chute, we recom- mend no more than 3-inch pieces. *Please make sure to remove any hard seeds or pits, such as cherry or plum pits, as it will not process in the juicer and can damage the Auger.

5. When placing any food in the Slow Juicer, the

Auger will automatically pull in the food, and be- gin juicing immediately. DO NOT push, force, or overstuff the unit. The Pusher provided with the Slow Juicer is only to use when food obstructs the inside of the Food Chute.

6. It is best to insert all food at a slow pace, al-

lowing all pulp to be extracted from the fruit or vegetable completely.

7. Reminder: turn off the Slow Juicer when juicing

is complete. Do not run the Slow Juicer without any food inside the unit as this could overheat the motor.

8. The Slow Juicer has a unique cleaning process

when switching between different types of juic- es. To clean, simply place one of the collectors under the juice spout and pour water though the Food Chute while the unit is on. This will rinse out most of the remaining residue from your last juicing. When the water from the slow juicer be- gins to run clear, that is an indication the unit is clean and ready to make a new juice recipe. NOTE: This process is not an alternative to a complete cleaning of each disassembled part.10

Please read the instruction manual carefully and follow the below juicing suggestion for best results, as a slow juicer has different operating instructions than that of a traditional juicer.

• Carefully drop food into the Food Chute. The Slow Juicer Pusher provided is only for use if any food obstructs the inside of the Food Chute. Do not overstuff, shove or force the food down.

• Cut food into pieces that are no larger than 3-inches for best juicing results.

• For best results, insert foods slowly to allow pulp to be extracted, do not over stuff or rush the juic- ing process.

• Do not put any frozen fruit, vegetables or ice into the unit.

• Combine leafy greens with a variety of fruit for the best results. NOTE At the bottom of the bowl, there is a silicone pad (Figure 7) that prevents juice from exiting through the pulp ejector. When using the Slow Juicer, make sure the silicone pad is closed in place. When cleaning the bowl, make sure to slide the pad out and run water through the pulp ejector to remove excess food debris. Fig. 7

1. Switch the machine off, and disconnect from

2. Turn the Food Chute counterclockwise to unlock.

3. Twist the bowl counterclockwise to the unlock

position and lift out the entire section.

Disassemble the upper unit in the following order

5. Using the included Slow Juicer Cleaning Brush,

thoroughly clean each of the disassembled parts using warm soapy water. Remember to move the silicone pad under the bowl to clean the remain- ing debris in the pulp ejector. Please Note: a. Don’t use an abrasive cloth or abrasive liquids. b. Do not rinse the Slow Juicer base or submerge the base in water. c. Dry all Slow Juicer attachments before reusing.

6. Hand washing is recommended for all compo-

nents of the upper unit. Please do not place any of the Slow Juicer parts in the dishwasher.11

Because there are many powerful staining proper- ties of the carotenoids that are found in many veg- etables, especially carrots, we suggest using ONE of the following cleaning procedures:

1. Soak in mild soapy water.

2. Equal parts warm water to cider vinegar.

3. Soak in baking soda, ½ box, and warm water.

4. ½ cup bleach in a sink full of warm water.

8.2 OTHER CLEANING TIPS

• Never use strong household cleaners, ammonia or abrasives while cleaning the Slow Juicer.

• Cleaning the Slow Juicer immediately after each use will also help to reduce stains on the bowl or upper parts.

PROBLEM SOLUTION Machine does not operate • Check power cord and power source.

• Check that all parts have been assembled correctly. Machine jams/ clogs or stops operating

• Check food chute is clear and is not blocked.

• Check that hard seeds have been removed before juicing and are not stuck in the machine.

• Turn machine off, and switch to reverse for 3 seconds.

• Disassemble upper section and clear remaining pulp. Squeaking noise when juicing

• Squeaking sound is perfectly normal. Please note to not run the juicer without any food. Leaking from underneath the bowl

• Be sure the silicone pad is tightly in place after cleaning. Strainer Damage

• Refer to operation instruction for proper usage and juicing tips. Remember not to over stuff food or force food in the slow juicer. Too much pulp coming out

• Cut food into smaller pieces, especially fibrous foods to avoid fibers scrapping around the Auger. Insert food at a slower pace and allow all food pulp to eject the unit before adding more. Bowl is stuck and will not detach from the base

• This is commonly caused by excess food in the bowl. Press reverse button 3-5 seconds. Repeat process 2-3 times. Then, push bowl upward while turning. Food Chute/Lid is stuck

• Press reverse button 3-5 seconds. Repeat process 2-3 times, you can then press down on top of lid while turning.12
