Frequently Asked Questions - 66900 PROCTOR SILEX

How to assemble the Proctor Silex 66900 juice extractor?

Place the bowl on the base over the motor shaft. Insert the strainer into the bowl. Choose the appropriate cone (orange, grapefruit, or lemon/lime) and insert it onto the shaft. Install the splash guard on the bowl. Plug the appliance into a grounded outlet and press (I) to start.

What types of citrus can I press with this appliance?

The appliance is designed to press oranges, grapefruits, lemons, and limes. Use the provided cone for each fruit type.

How to clean the juice extractor after use?

Unplug the appliance. Remove the cover, cone, strainer, and bowl. Remove pulp and seeds. Wash these parts in a commercial dishwasher or by hand with hot soapy water. Rinse and dry. Wipe the base and motor shaft with a damp cloth and dry. Never immerse the base in water.

Why isn't juice flowing through the spout?

Check that the strainer or spout is not blocked by seeds or pulp. Clean these parts thoroughly between each use.

What if the motor does not work?

Unplug the appliance and let the motor cool down for a few minutes. Make sure not to apply excessive pressure on the fruit. Check that the plug is properly inserted and the switch is on (I). If the problem persists, contact technical service.

The juice tastes bitter, how to fix it?

Avoid applying too much pressure on the fruit during extraction. Excessive pressure causes grinding of the peels, which gives a bitter taste.
