dislodge them. The REVERSE button only
works while holding down the switch
3. Insert the prepared ingredients into the
feeding tube, one piece at a time. If large
quantity of ingredients are put into the
feeding tube, it can cause the juicer to stop
Remove hard seeds or pits in fruits. When
juicing frozen fruits, completely thaw before
juicing.
HARD VEGETABLES & HIGH FIBRE
FOODS (E.G. CARROTS, BEETS, & SPINACH)
Insert into the feeding tube.
Tough and fibrous ingredients: Cut to 2cm
wide and 5cm long.
Fibrous leafy vegetables (celery, kale, collard
greens, etc.): Cut the stems into 5cm long and
bundle up the leafy part as you insert them into
the juicer.
SOFT FRUITS & VEGETABLES
(E.G. APPLES, ORANGES & TOMATOES)
Insert into the feeding basket.
Soft ingredients: Cut ingredients into 1-4
pieces. Insert the prepared ingredients into the
feeding basket and push down the ingredient
with the basket lid to extract.

11
SMART CAP
Detachable
Use the smart cap to make mixed juice, block
juice from dripping, or rinse between different
juices.
• Juicing with the smart cap closed creates
various mixed juice creations with different
fruits and vegetables, milk, beans and other
ingredients.
• After juicing, close the smart cap to stop juice
from dripping, especially when disassembling
the juicing bowl off of the base.
• When making different juices, quickly rinse
any left over flavors by running a glass of
water in the juicer with the smart cap closed.
• Leave the smart cap open when juicing
ingredients that often creates foam during
extraction. (e.g. apples, celery)
• Pay close attention when operating with the
smart cap closed. Juice may overflow if the
juice collected in the juicing bowl exceeds its
capacity.
IF THE JUICER STOPS DURING
OPERATION:
If the ingredients become jammed in the
screw and the drum lid does not open, press
the OFF button ensuring that the juicer comes
to a complete stop. Then press and hold
the REVERSE button until the ingredients
become dislodged. Repeat REVERSE - OFF -
FORWARD as often as needed to achieve the
desired result. Let the juicer stop completely
before using the REVERSE button to prevent
malfunction.

OFF REV OFF FWD
If the juicer does not work after these steps,
disassemble and clean the parts before
operating the juicer again.
DISASSEMBLY
After juice and pulp have been completely
extracted, switch the unit OFF.
If the remaining ingredients in the juicing bowl
have not been extracted completely, the drum
lid may not open easily. (After each extraction,
run the juicer for additional 30 seconds to let
the juicer extract the remaining pulp.)
When the drum lid is stuck, press the
REVERSE - OFF - FORWARD button in the
order, switching back and forth 2~3 times to
dislodge. Then place your hands on top of
the drum lid and firmly press down as you

Tips
1. Operating the juicer without ingredients
can cause damage to the screw.
2. Do not continuously operate the juicer for
more than 30 minutes. This can damage the
motor from overheating. After continuous
use, let the juicer rest for 30 minutes to cool
down before starting another session.
3. Do not put hand, utensil, tong, or other
objects into the feeding tube other than the
provided pusher.
4. During operation, do not put spoon, spatula
or other objects into the juice spout of the
juicing bowl. If other object is put into the
juice spout during operation, such materials
can get stuck and damage the juicer parts.
5. Do not reinsert the extracted pulp into the
juicer. This can cause the juicer to stop or
cause the drum lid not to open.
6. After juicing ingredients with small seeds
like grapes, thoroughly clean all the crevices
on the bottom of the juicing screw.
Don’ts
DO NOT PUT THE FOLLOWING
INGREDIENTS INTO THE JUICER
 Hard seeds
Peach, nectarines, apricot, plum, mango, etc.
Remove hard seeds from the ingredients
before juicing.
 Hard or inedible skins
Pineapple, melon, mango, orange, etc.
Peel the skins from the ingredients before
juicing.
 Frozen fruits or ice
Frozen strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, etc.
Completely thaw frozen fruits before
juicing. Do not use ice.
 Vegetable/ animal oil
Sesame seed, butter, margarine, etc.
Do not extract ingredients containing
vegetable or animal oil. This can reduce
performance and even damage the juicer.
 Others

content.

13
Care & Cleaning
4. Remove the juicing screw, strainer and
rotation wiper unit from the juicing bowl.
Clean with provided brush.
NOTE
Immediately clean the juicer after each use. If
remaining residue in the juicer dries up, it can
make disassembling and clean-up difficult. The
excess build up can cause poor performance in
future uses.
For easier disassembly, place the top-set in the
sink and run the water through from the top of
the top-set.
We do not recommend to wash any parts of the
juicer in the dishwasher. Washing parts in the
dishwasher can cause damage to them due to
prolonged exposure to harsh detergents, hot
water and pressure.
Extract all the remaining pulp in the juicing
bowl before stopping the juicer.
For easier clean up, operate the juicer for
an additional 30 seconds after the juice is
extracted. Then fill the juicing bowl with water
and run the juicer before opening the drum lid.
When the drum lid is stuck, press the
REVERSE – OFF – FORWARD button in this
order, switching back and forth 2 to 3 times to
dislodge. Then place both hands on the drum
lid and firmly press down while simultaneously
turning the drum lid to open.
CLEANING THE JUICER
1. Switch OFF and unplug the power cord
from the wall outlet.
2. Turn the drum lid counter clockwise to
open.
WARNING
When moving the appliance, do not lift by
grabbing the feeding tube. Always lift the
appliance by grabbing the body or handle.
3. Turn the top-set counter clockwise and lift
off the body.

14
5. Place the juicing bowl under running water
and unplug the compression silicone to
clean the pulp spout.
6. Under running water, clean the outside of
the juicing screw with a dish scrub. Use the
tip of the cleaning brush to push out any
residue in the crevices on the bottom of the
juicing screw.
Thoroughly clean the juicing screw
ensuring that the juicing screw is clean
without any residue. Thoroughly dry the
bottom of the juicing screw.
After juicing ingredients with seeds, make
sure to thoroughly clean the bottom crevice
of the juicing screw. (If this area isn’t
properly cleaned, it can cause the part to be
damaged.).
7. Clean the body with a soft damp towel and
dry.
If the towel is dripping wet, make sure to
squeeze out the excess liquid before using it
on the juicer.

15
QUICK RINSING
It is not necessary to completely clean the
juicer in between making multiple juices
during a single juicing session. You can do a
quick rinse instead.
1. With the smart cap closed, fill the juicing
bowl with water and turn on the juicer.
2. Let it run for a moment. Open the smart
cap and let the water run out of the juicing
bowl.
When finished with juicing, always
disassemble and clean thoroughly
between juicing sessions to prevent
residue buildup.
CLEANING SILICONE PARTS
Clean the rotation wiper under running
water. Thoroughly dry after cleaning. Before
assembling the top-set, ensure that the
compression silicone and silicone ring are
firmly inserted.
If the compression silicone and silicone ring
are not firmly inserted, juice may leak from the
bottom of the juicing bowl.
COMPRESSION SILICONE
Unplug to clean.
After cleaning, firmly insert into the slot below
the pulp spout.
SILICONE RING
Remove the silicone ring from the juicing bowl
to clean.
After cleaning, push in the silicone ring with
the smaller surface facing down.
SMART CAP
Remove from the juice spout to clean.
After cleaning, attach the smart cap to the
smart cap silicone on the juice spout.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION
There is no power to the
juicer • Check if the power cord is properly plugged in.
• Check if the drum lid and the juicing bowl are properly assembled.
• Check if the top-set and the body are properly assembled.
NOTE: Juicer will not operate if parts are not assembled properly.
Low juice yield • Different ingredients hold different amounts of fluid that will yield different
amounts of juice.
• If the ingredients are not fresh, they may contain reduced amount of fluid,
which will yield less juice. Soak ingredients in cold water for about 30 min
prior to juicing for the best result.
• Check if the compression silicone is firmly inserted.
• If the ingredient itself has low water content, it may help to soak it in water
before juicing.
• If juicing ingredients with small seeds, after a few servings, it may reduce
the juice yield. For best result, disassemble and wash the top set in between
juicing.
• If there is seed residue on the bottom of the strainer, this can affect juicer
performance and the overall juice yield.
There is too much pulp
in the juice • To reduce the fine pulp, clean the top-set frequently and extract the pulp.
• Use a mesh strainer and put the juice through it to collect the unwanted pulp.
• If the strainer and the screw are damaged and affecting the juicer’s
performance, it is recommended the parts be replaced.
• The lifetime of each part may vary depending on length and method of use
and ingredients extracted.
The drum lid will not
close • Make sure the juicing screw is pushed all the way in to the strainer in order for
the drum lid to close properly.
• If the juicing screw is not properly in position, the drum lid may not close.

17
PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION
Odd noise from the
juicer • Check if the parts are assembled correctly. Try reassembling the parts and listen for the odd noise.
• Do not start the juicer unless there are ingredients and/or liquid in it.
• Operating the juicer without ingredients can cause damage to the screw.
• If the juicer is operated without ingredients or liquid, the noise level can
increase and also can lead to damage.
• The friction noise from the juicing screw and the strainer will disappear when
ingredients are inserted into the juicer.
• If the noise occurs when ingredients are inserted into the juicer, check the size
of the ingredients. Do not insert anything over 3cm in thickness.
• Depending on the type of ingredients, the dimensions can be smaller.
• The noise can occur if the juicer is operated on an uneven or slanted surface.
Place the juicer on a horizontally flat surface when operating.
The extracted pulp is
very moist • During the very beginning of extraction, the pulp can be more moist.
• Depending on the ingredient’s condition, the extracted pulp can be affected;
especially when the ingredient is not fresh, the juice can be extracted with the
pulp.
During operation, the
juicing bowl shakes • The juicing screw and the strainer are set up to crush and squeeze the
ingredients. It is normal for the juicing screw and the strainer to vibrate.
• If the ingredient contains strong fibre, the vibration from the top-set may be
stronger.
During juicing, the
juicer stopped • Check the power cord and make sure it is plugged in correctly.
• Check that all the parts are correctly assembled.
• If too many ingredients are inserted at one time, this can cause the juicer to
stop.
• When the juicer stops because there are too many ingredients inserted in it,
press the REVERSE - OFF - FORWARD button in this order, switching back
and forth 2 to 3 times. The reverse setting will push the ingredients up and
the forward setting will pull the ingredients down.
• After using more than 30 minutes, if the juicer stops due to the overload
protection, let the juicer cool for 30 minutes to 1 hour before juicing again.
• If there are hard seeds within the ingredients, remove them before juicing.
Hard seeds can damage the juicer
Layers of separation in
the juice • Depending on the density of the ingredients, the extracted juice may show
layers of different juices. It is different from separation due to oxidation
caused by juicing with a high-speed juicer..

18
PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION
The drum lid is stuck • After juicing, let the juicer operate for another 30 seconds to extract the
remaining pulp.
• If there is too much pulp in the top-set, this can cause the drum lid to not
open. In this situation, press the REVERSE-OFF-FORWARD button in the
order, switching back and forth 2 to 3 times. Then place both hands on the
drum lid and firmly press down while simultaneously turning the drum lid
to open.
• Pour water down the feeding tube to rinse out the insides and then try
opening the drum lid.
Juice dripping down the
body • If the compression silicone on the bottom of the juicing bowl is not plugged
in correctly, the juice may seep out on to the juicer body. Before assembling
the parts, check and make sure the compression silicone is plugged in
correctly.
Is it possible to juice
ingredients with
tough fibre?
• Ingredients like celery or ginger contain long fibers that may wrap around
the juicing screw and affect the juicer’s performance. When juicing fibrous
ingredients, do not collect more than 1 lb. of juice. After collecting this
quantity or less, clean the top-set completely before juicing again..
Discoloration of the
plastic parts • After juicing, if the juicer is not cleaned right away, the remaining pulp inside
the top-set can dry up which can make disassembling and cleaning hard. This
can also affect the juicer’s performance and color.
• Ingredients that are rich in carotenoids such as carrots and spinach may dye
plastic parts. When the parts are dyed with carotenoids, rub vegetable oil in to
the dyed areas and use mild detergent to clean.
• Vegetable oil should only be used during clean-up for parts that are
discolored. Do not use vegetable oil on the juicing screw or the strainer. If
vegetable oil or oil from animal fat gets on the juicing screw or the strainer,
this can affect the juicer’s performance and may result in damaged parts.
• The silicone pieces on the top-set can be detached to be thoroughly cleaned.
Using for purposes other
than juicing • This juicer is designed to juice ingredients like fruits and vegetables.
• Do not use the juicer for extracting vegetable oil.
• Do not juice ingredients with high contents of vegetable/ animal oil.
• If vegetable/animal oil gets on the juicing screw or the strainer, this can affect
the performance of the juicer and could result in damaged parts.
