Step 1
Wash your selection of fruit and vegetables ready
for juicing.
Most fruit and vegetables such as small apples,
carrots and cucumbers will not need to be cut to
size as these will fit into the feed chute whole.
When juicing carrots place the tip of the carrot
into the feed chute last.
Note
Step 2
Ensure the Juice Fountain is correctly assembled.
Ensure the stainless steel filter is thoroughly
cleaned before each use (refer to care and cleaning)
(See page 13). Ensure you place the juice jug with
lid fitted (or glass) under spout before
commencing juicing.
Step 3
Plug the power cord into a 230/240V power outlet
and turn the power ‘ON’. Push the ‘ON/OFF’ button
to ‘ON’.
Step 4
With the motor running, place food into the feed
chute. Using the food pusher, gently guide food down
the feed chute. To extract the maximum amount of
juice, always push the food pusher down slowly.
Step 5
Juice will flow into the juice jug and the separated
pulp will accumulate in the integrated pulp container.
When the integrated pulp container is full of pulp,
it must be emptied before continuing to juice.
(Refer to disassembling instructions on Page 11).
Reassemble machine to continue juicing.
Note
NEVER USE FINGERS TO PUSH FOOD DOWN THE FEED CHUTE OR TO CLEAR THE FEED CHUTE.
ALWAYS USE THE FOOD PUSHER PROVIDED.

Care and cleaning
13
•Always ensure that the Juice Fountain is switched
off at the power outlet. Then remove the plug from
the power outlet before cleaning, dissembling and
storing the appliance.
•Follow these instructions to clean all surfaces of
parts that come into contact with food during
normal use.
•For easy cleaning – immediately after each use
always switch off at power outlet and then unplug.
Then rinse removable parts under running water
(to remove wet pulp). Allow parts to air dry.
•After disassembling the unit all removable parts
may be washing in hot soapy water or dishwasher
safe parts may be placed in the dishwasher.
•The Juice Fountain cover, integrated pulp container,
stainless steel filter basket and 800ml juice jug are
dishwasher safe, (top shelf only).
•Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth.
•For consistent juicing results always ensure that the
stainless steel filter basket is thoroughly cleaned
using the supplied nylon bristle brush. Using the
nylon washing brush, hold the stainless steel filter
basket under running water and brush from the
inside of the basket, hold it up towards a light to
ensure the fine mesh holes are not blocked. If the
holes are blocked soak the stainless steel filter
basket in hot water with 10% lemon juice to loosen
the blocked holes. Alternatively wash the stainless
steel filter basket in the dishwasher.
•Do not soak the stainless steel filter basket in bleach.
•Always treat the stainless steel filter basket with
care as it can be easily damaged.
•Discolouration of the plastic may occur with
strongly coloured fruit and vegetables. To help
prevent this, wash parts immediately after use.
•If discolouration does occur, the plastic parts can be
soaked in 10% lemon juice and water or they can
be cleaned with a non- abrasive cleaner.
To assist with cleaning soak the stainless steel
filter basket in hot soapy water for approximately
10 minutes immediately after juicing is
completed. If pulp is left to dry on the filter it
may clog the fine pores of the filter mesh
thereby lessening the effectiveness of the Juicer.
For your convenience a nylon cleaning brush has
been included with your Juice Fountain.
Note
DO NOT IMMERSE THE MOTOR BASE IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID. DO NOT USE WATER
JET TO CLEAN THE MOTOR BASE.
THE CENTRE OF THE FILTER BAS ET AND FEED CHUTE CONTAIN SMALL SHARP BLADES TO
PROCESS FRUIT AND VEGETABLES DURING THE JUICING FUNCTION. DO NOT TOUCH BLADES
WHEN HANDLING THE FILTER BAS ET OR FEED CHUTE.

Tips on juicing
15
The inside information on juicing
Although juice drinks are usually 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 diet. Fresh fruit and vegetable juices are
an easy to make 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 juices, you have complete
control over what you include in them. You select the
ingredients and decide if you need to use sugar, salt
or other flavouring agents.
Freshly extracted juices should be consumed just
after they have been made to avoid a loss of
vitamin content.
urchasing 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.
•eep your fruit and vegetables ready for juicing by
washing 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.
reparation of fruit and vegetables
•If using fruits with hard or inedible skins such as
mangoes, guava, melons or pineapple, always peel
before juicing.
•Citrus fruit can be juiced in the Juice Fountain if
peeled first.
•All fruits with pits, hard seeds or stones such as
nectarines, peaches, mangoes, apricots, plums and
cherries must be pitted before juicing.
•A small amount of lemon juice can be added to
apple juice to prohibit browning.
Your Juice Fountain makes invigorating, frothy
orange juice. Simply peel the oranges and juice.
(It is best to refrigerate oranges before juicing).
That’s the idea™

The right technique
When juicing a variety of ingredients with varying
textures start with the softer textured ingredients
then change to for harder texture ingredients.
If you are juicing herbs, sprouts or leafy green
vegetables either wrap then together to form a
bundle or juice them in the middle of a combination
of ingredients 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 as 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.
Note
Getting the right blend
It is easy to create great tasting juice. If you have
been making your own vegetable and fruit juices,
then you know how simple it is to invent new
combinations. Taste, colour, texture and ingredient
preferences are a personal thing. Just think of some
of your favourite 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 of thumb to
combine starchy, pulpy ingredients with those high
in moisture.
Using the pulp
The remaining pulp left after juicing fruit or
vegetables is mostly fibre and cellulose which, like
the juice, contains vital nutrients 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.
Some of the uses of pulp are to bulk out rissoles,
thicken casseroles or soups or in the case of fruit,
simply placed in a bowl topped with meringue and
baked for a simple dessert.
Quite apart from the consumption use, pulp is great
used in the garden for compost.
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.
