DO NOT JUICE

Some fruits and vegetables cannot be juiced due to their inability to produce 

juice  Although they are unable to be juiced, that does not mean we should 

not enjoy them on a daily basis as part of a healthy diet  Examples are: 

avocado, banana, and coconut 
Never use the green tops of rhubarb  Oxalic acid is toxic in the leaves  There 

are so many other healthy fruits and vegetables available that it’s just easier 

and safer to skip rhubarb as a juice source 

CLEANING YOUR JUICER

We have made juicer clean up as easy as possible  All of the components,  

with exception of the motor base, can be put in your home dishwasher   

We recommend top rack placement as temperatures near the bottom drying 

element may vary with manufacturer  

CAUTION:

 Some commercial and foreign made dishwashers may reach 

internal temperatures that are higher than machines made for home use by 

U S   standards  Do not use these dishwashers with your Fusion Juicer   

The higher temperatures may cause damage to your juicer  Check with  

your dishwasher manufacturer before using 
For easiest clean up, we recommend you rinse/clean your Fusion Juicer 

immediately after juicing  This will help prevent fruit/vegetable fibers from 

hardening on the components, making it more difficult to clean 
• Turn off the power switch and wait until the motor completely stops 
• With dry hands, unplug the AC cord from electrical outlet 
• Disassemble the machine  (See disassembly instructions pages 6–7 )
