pressure.

the citrus rind, remove it from reamer and
begin juicing the next piece of fruit.
6. After approximately 1 lb. of fruit has been
juiced, the juicing basket will appear to
be full.
7. Place drip spout in the closed position and
remove the juice pitcher.

CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Do not immerse the motor housing in water or
spray it with water. Clean only by wiping with
a damp sponge, cloth or paper towel. Use any
liquid dishwashing detergent, but do not use
any products containing ammonia or scouring
powders, as these products will dull, scratch or
mar the finish.
For easy cleanup, use the cleaning brush to
remove excess pulp from the micro-mesh juice
filter basket and citrus juicing basket after each
use. Vegetable and fruit residue will harden if left
to dry on the unit parts, making them more dif-
ficult to clean. One side of the provided cleaning
brush is designed to scrape the pulp out of the
filter basket and the other side is used to brush
the basket clean.
1. Unplug juicer and carefully take it apart, fol-
lowing Disassembly Instructions on page 5.
WARNING: Be careful when handling the
mesh filter basket/blade, as blades are
very sharp.
2. Rinse all removable parts with cold water.
3. Wash the juice extractor cover, food pusher,
juice pitcher, micro-mesh juice filter basket
assembly, filter housing/juice container, and
citrus juicing basket and reamer in hot, sudsy
water on top rack of dishwasher.
NOTE:
For best juicing results, the mesh
filter basket must always be thoroughly
cleaned after each use.
4. Towel dry all parts.
5. Any other servicing should be performed by
an authorized service representative.
TIPS AND HINTS
J
uice Extractor
• Extracted juice captures about 95% of the
nutrients from fresh fruits and vegetables.
Drinking extracted juice is a fast and efficient way
for your body to digest and absorb all of those
nutrients. Digesting whole fruits can take about
an hour; extracted juices take only 15 minutes.
• Freshly extracted juices are an excellent aid
in weight management and in cleanses, which
rid the body of toxins.
• Always use fresh, organic and seasonal pro-
duce. Organic produce is grown without syn-
thetic fertilizers and chemicals, which is very
important when juicing whole foods. Buying
foods in season is considerably less expen-
sive than purchasing off-season, and flavors
are much better.
• Wash all fruits and vegetables immediately
after purchasing and store them in the refrig-
erator.
This way they are ready to juice at any time.
• Always juice fresh fruits and vegetables as
soon as possible after purchasing. The longer
produce is held, the more nutrients it loses.
• Fresh juices should be consumed immediately.
They lose nutrients as they sit.
• Certain fruits should be peeled before juice
extracting. Examples are pineapples, melons,
mangoes, papayas, citrus – any fruit with skin
that you cannot eat. Also remove all pits and
hard seeds from peaches, cherries, mangoes,
etc.
• If cucumbers are waxy, peel them before juicing.
• Juice the softer ingredients before the
harder ones.
• When juicing herbs or leafy greens, juice them
in the middle of a combination of ingredients in
order to extract the greatest amount of juice.
