Juice Extractor Safety
When using electrical appliances, basic
safety precautions should be followed,
including the following:
1.
Read all instructions.
2.
To protect against risk of electrical
shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or
motor base in water or other liquid.
3.
Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near children.
4.
Unplug cord from outlet when not in
use, before putting on or taking off
parts, and before cleaning.
5.
Avoid contacting moving parts. Keep
fingers out of food chute.
6.
Always make sure juice extractor cover
is clamped securely in place before
motor is turned on. Do not unfasten
cover latches while juice extractor is in
operation.
7.
Never operate without pulp bowl in place.
8.
Be sure to turn switch to OFF position
after each use of your juice extractor.
Make sure the motor stops completely
before disassembling.
9.
Do not put fingers or other objects into
the juice extractor food chute while it is
in operation. Never feed food by hand –
always use the food pusher. If food
becomes lodged in the opening, use
food pusher or another piece of fruit or
vegetable to push it down. When this
method is not possible, turn the motor
off, unplug the cord from the outlet, and
disassemble juicer to remove the
remaining food.
10.
Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug, or after the
appliance malfunctions or is dropped
or damaged in any manner. Call our
toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair, or
electrical or mechanical adjustment.
11.
The use of attachments not
recommended or sold by Hamilton
Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc. may cause
fire, electric shock, or injury.
12.
Do not use outdoors.
13.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table
or counter, or touch hot surfaces,
including stove.
14.
Do not leave juice extractor unattended
while it is operating.
15.
Blades are sharp; handle carefully.
16.
Keep hair, clothing, and jewelry, as well
as spatulas and other utensils, away
from food chute during operation to
prevent the possibility of severe injury
to persons and/or damage to the
appliance.
17.
The cutter/strainer is a very delicate
screen not covered under the
warranty. Do not wash in an automatic
dishwasher. If bent or damaged, do
not use, as it could break into small
pieces and cause personal injury and/
or damage the appliance. Call our
toll-free customer service number to
order a new cutter/strainer. Replace
cutter when it shows signs of wear.
This appliance is intended for household
use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized
plug. This type of plug has one blade wider
than the other. The plug will fit into an
electrical outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature intended to help reduce the
risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to
insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact a qualified electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety purpose of the polarized plug by
modifying the plug in any way.
