HOW TO PREPARE FRUIT AND VEGETABLES FOR JUICING
1. Wash fruits and vegetables.
2. Peel fruits that have inedible skins such as citrus fruits, pineapple,
melons, papaya, etc.
3. Pit all fruits with hard seeds or stones such as peaches, nectarines,
cherries, etc.
4. Most fruits and vegetables such as apples, carrots and cucumbers will
not need to be cut. If the pieces are too big for the Feed Tube, slice
the fruit or vegetables before starting to juice.
HOW TO JUICE
1. Assemble the Juicer. The Juice Jug or a glass can be placed below
the pout to collect juice.
2. Plug the power cord into a 120 V power outlet.
3. Choose either ‘Hi’ or ‘Lo’ speed on the Electronic Control depending
on the type of fruit or vegetable that is being juiced. Never put any fruit
or vegetables in the juicer until power is turned on. Soft fruit or
vegetables, such as berries, melons, cucumber, tomatoes, etc. should
be juiced on Lo speed. Harder fruit and vegetables such as apples, celery,
carrots, etc. should be juiced at ‘Hi’ speed.
4. With the motor running, place food into the Feed Tube. Using the Food
Pusher, gently guide food down the Feed Tube. To Extract the maximum
amount of juice, always push the Food Pusher down slowly.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT PLACE HANDS OR FOREIGN OBJECTS DOWN
THE FEED TUBE. ALWAYS USE THE FOOD PUSHER
5. If the Pulp Container is full it can be emptied during juicing. Turn
the Juicer Off and remove the Pulp Container by holding onto the Feed
Tub and tilting the juicer slightly to disengage the Safety Foot on the Pulp
Container. Empty the Pulp Container. Replace by sliding the Pulp
Container into position under the Pulp Chute. Ensure that the Safety Foot
on the Pulp Container is engaged in the slot in the Motor Housing.

6. The froth separator in the Juice Jug will eliminate froth being poured into
the glass. If you prefer to have juice with froth, simply remove the froth
separator attachment from the Juice Jug before juicing
IMPORTANT: When juicing on ‘Hi’ Speed do not run the Juicer
for longer than 5 minutes then allow to rest for 2 minutes
beforeyou resume juicing.
HELPFUL HINTS
• A small amount of lemon juice can be added to apple juice
to prevent browning.
• Do not use bananas or avocados as they do not contain juice and will
clog the juicer.
• Allow the juicer to run for one minute before turning ‘Off’ to allow
any excess juice to be extracted from the pulp.
•Aplastic bag can be put in the pulp container for easy clean-up.
• Disassemble the Juicer and rinse off the pulp immediately after juicing.
The Strainer Basket/Cutting Blades can be soaked in water to loosen
the pulp. Then wash in warm soapy water.
• Wash parts immediately after use to avoid discolouration of the plastic
parts which may occur with some fruits and vegetables.
• If juicing herbs or leafy green vegetables process in combination with
other fruits or vegetables to yield more juice.
