14 If this happens, turn the transparent part of the jug upside down and lift the blade
unit and seal off with your fingernails.
15 Wash the cap, lid, stirrer, tap parts, jug, jug base, blade unit, and seal in warm soapy
water, and leave them to drain dry.
16 Don’t use a cloth for drying. You may leave lint on the inside surfaces, and you’ll
probably cut yourself on the blades.
17 There’s a Y-shaped guard in the hole the tap screws into. Clean this gently with a
small bottle-brush.
18 Your bottle-brush may also come in handy when cleaning the inside of the tap.
19 If you’ve left it too long before cleaning, and bits have glued themselves to the
inside of the jug, use a nylon brush. If that doesn’t work, crush some ice cubes in it,
that’ll shift most things.
20 Don’t put any of the parts into a dishwasher. The extreme environment inside the
dishwasher can affect surface finishes, and warp plastic parts.
21 Wipe the outside of the motor unit with a clean damp cloth.
22 Don’t put the motor unit in water or any other liquid.
23 Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
reassembly
24 Wait till everything’s dry.
25 Seat the seal on the flat rim round the blade unit.
25 Centre the blade unit and seal inside the jug base.
26 Align the
q
on the transparent part of the jug with the open padlock
U
on the top
of the jug base.
27 Insert the bottom of the jug into the jug base, and turn the jug to bring the
q
over
the closed padlock
L
on the top of the jug base.
28 Check that the Y-shaped guard is aligned with the hole in the jug base.
29 Screw the tap lever back into the tap – about 2
2
turns of the retaining ring. Don’t
overtighten it. If you do, our spares department will be delighted to sell you a new
tap. They love people who break things.
30 To replace the tap, hold it upright, put it into the hole in the jug base, then turn it 2
complete turns clockwise – no more.
31 Sit the jug base on the motor unit, with the tap over the
u
mark on the motor unit.
32 Turn the jug and base clockwise till the tap is facing the front, and the
d
mark on
the jug base is over the
u
mark on the motor unit.
staining
33 Carotenoids, which are found in many other vegetables as well as carrots, can
cause severe staining. This staining may be impossible to remove. If you want to try,
then you could try soaking the stained parts overnight in one of the following:
a) quarter of a cup of household bleach in a sink full of warm water.
b) a mixture of 1 part white vinegar to two parts warm water
c) half a small packet of baking soda in enough warm water to cover the parts
caution
Don’t try to mix these methods. You may make a mess, you may cause nasty
eye-watering, breath-catching fumes, and you may harm the parts you’re
trying to clean.
