first, then disengage the back of the lid from the
pulp spout on the juice bowl (M).
5. Grasp bottom of the pulp container and pull it away
from the base, titling slightly to release it from
behind the pulp spout (N).

filter are extremely sharp! Always hold and carry the
filter by the rim.

PREPARATION
How to prepare fruits and vegetables for juicing.
Purchasing and Storing Ingredients:
• Always use fresh fully ripened fruits and vegetables.
• When purchasing consider selecting fruits and vegetables in season for
best freshness and flavor.
• Choose fruits that are plump, tender and have bright color. Fruits should be
heavy for their size without bruises, cuts or blemishes.
• To ripen fruit, place in a small clean paper bag. Close the bag loosely and
let stand at room temperature. (To speed ripening, add a ripe apple
or banana to the bag.) Once ripened, store in the refrigerator for a day
or 2 until ready to use.
• Store perishable vegetables in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Preparing Fruits and Vegetables:
• Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly just before using in the juice
extractor using a natural bristle brush and a biodegradable cleaner to help
remove pesticide residue.
• If desired, remove the skin. The skin may be left on all produce with the
exception of:
o All citrus fruits, including
• Oranges
• Grapefruit
• Lemons
• Limes
• Tangerines
Note: The oil in the skin of these fruits tastes bitter and is difficult to digest.
When removing skin from citrus fruits, remove the white pith, as well, to keep
finished juices from tasting bitter.
Tip: Although the skin may be left on melons and pineapple, you may choose
to remove them to maximize the fruit flavor in the finished drink.
• All pits and large seeds should be removed from fruits, including:
o Apricots
o Cherries
o Nectarines
o Mangos
o Peaches
o Plums
o Melons
• Remove and discard outer leaves of non-organic produce. Peel away any
wax coatings.
• Trim any bruised or discolored sections of fruits and vegetables
