IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury, including the following:

• Read all instructions before using your juice extractor
• Before using, place this juice extractor on a stable surface and operate it according to the instructions in this manual. Always use the juice extractor on a dry, leveled surface.
• Always make sure the juice extractor is properly and completely assembled before operating. The unit will not turn on unless properly assembled. Before turning the juicer on, install and make sure that the juicing filter, recollecting ring tray and motor unit are completely assembled in their correct position and there is no forced contact between the juicing filter and clear cover. Place the clear cover on, fasten the handle before tuming the juicer on.
• Before juicing, the motor works in a “running-in” state. There might be a slight smell and noise right after you turn on the appliance. It is very normal. Let the motor run without load for about 10 seconds. After the motor works for some period, the slight smell and noise will disappear.
• DO NOT PUT YOUR FINGERS OR OTHER OBJECTS INTO THE JUICER OPENING WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION. 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 FROM OUTLET AND DISASSEMBLE JUICER TO REMOVE THE REMAINING FOOD.
• Be sure to tum switch to off position “0” (OFF) after each use of your juicer. Make sure the motor stops completely before disassembling. Always tum the juice extractor off first before unplugging it from the outlet.
• During use, make sure excess juice or pulp residue do not accumulate excessively in the juicing filter, recollecting ring or pulp collector container. If any of those are too full, please turn the juicer off, clean up the components, and then resume using the juice extractor.
• Always make sure juicer lid/cover is clamped securely in place before motor is turned on. DO NOT unfasten clamps while juicer is in operation. Avoid contact moving parts. DO NOT touch the small cutting blades located at the base of the stainless steel filter. DO NOT push produce into the feed chute with your fingers. Always use the food pusher provided. DO NOT touch the small cutting blades in the base of the stainless steel filter basket.
• DO NOT use the appliance if the rotating sieve/filter is damaged.

WARNING: THE STAINLESS STEEL FILTER CONTAINS SMALL SHARP BLADES TO CUT AND PROCESS FRUITS AND VEGETABLES. DO NOT TOUCH BLADES WHEN HANDLING THE FILTER.

CLEANING

After disassembling all removable parts of the juice extractor, wash them by hand with warm soapy water. If the pulp dries out in the pulp collector container, the stainless steel filter or the recollecting ring tray, let them soak in water for approximately 10 minutes before washing them. The stainless steel filter basket contains sham blades. Do not touch them when handling the filter.
Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth. Never immerse it in water or any other liquid.
It is very important to keep the stainless steel filter very clean, free of residues blocking the holes in order to ensure optimal performance. Use a nylon brush to clean it thoroughly (see picture for suggested brush, not included), if necessary. This way you can clean the stainless-steel filter thoroughly without touching the blades with your hand. Never use a harsh cleaning solution, a hard object or a hard brush to clean the components of the juice extractor. If the holes in the mesh remain blocked, soak the filter in hot water with a water solution with 10% lemon juice.

Some fruits or vegetables may stain plastic components if they are in contact for prolonged periods of time. Wash all removable components promptly after each use.
NOTE: DO NOT IMMERSE THE MOTOR BASE IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
The juice extractor should be used often to keep the motor in best condition. If you are not going to use the juice extractor for a long time, store it in a dry and well ventilated place.
Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

TROUBLESHOOTING
