3. Motor
4. Base
5. Lid/Chute
6. Centrifugal bowl
7. Spout

OVERVIEW

BEFORE FIRST USE
Wash all components except the motor and power cord with soapy water.

ASSEMBLY

1. Secure the motor on a flat surface, ensuring the suction cups on the bottom of the motor are stuck on the surface.
   Note: If placing on a kitchen counter, place it towards the centre or back of the counter to avoid the juicer from falling off.

2. Place the spout onto the base, ensuring it fits into the slot on the side of the base.

3. Carefully align and secure the gear on the bottom of the centrifuge bowl into the gear on the spout, locking the centrifuge bowl in place.

4. Place the lid/chute on the juicer so that it covers both the pulp collector and the centrifuge bowl. Ensure the lid/chute fits tightly onto the base.

5. Lift the locking mechanism to engage with the lid/chute. The locking mechanism will make a clicking sound when this is done correctly.

6. Align the groove on the pusher with the lid/chute, then slide the pusher down the chute.

7. Place the pulp collector under the lid so that it locks tightly onto the foot of the motor.

8. Place a glass, bowl, or any other suitable container under the spout to collect the juice. The juicer will then be ready for use.

PREPARATION

• Always wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly before juicing.
• It is optional to remove seeds, small pits, or thin peels before using the juicer.
• Fruits with thick peels (for example, oranges. lemons) must be peeled before juicing. Remove all the peel (including the pith), as even small amounts of peel can impart an unpleasant taste to the juice.
• Remove large pits (for example from plums, apricots) to avoid damaging the juicer.
• Large fruits and vegetables should be cut into pieces so they can fit into the chute.

OPERATION

1. Plug the power cord into the socket and switch on the socket.

2. The power dial should be in the ‘0’ position. Turn the power dial to the desired setting (‘1’ for low speed, ‘2’ for high speed’).

3. Feed your fruits and vegetables through the chute, pushing them down gently using the pusher. Juice will flow out of the spout, and any pulp will go into the pulp collector.
   Keep an eye on the pulp collector and stop juicing before it becomes full.
   Notes:

4. When using the pusher, ensure the grooves on the pusher are aligned with the chute.

5. Exerting too much pressure on the pusher may reduce the amount of juice extracted and cause damage to the juicer.

6. Long vegetables (for example, carrots) should be fed pointy end first.

7. When finished, turn the power dial back to the ‘0’ position to turn off the juicer. Switch the socket off, unplug the power cord, and take off the lid.

Note:
Do not leave the juicer running for longer than 3 minutes at a time. If it has been running for longer than 3 minutes, turn it off and allow it to cool for 20 minutes before resuming use.

Power dial settings

• The low-speed setting ‘1’ is suitable for juicing softer fruits and vegetables (for example, melons, tomatoes, peaches, kale, cucumber, mint).
• The high-speed setting ‘2’ is suitable for juicing harder fruits and vegetables (for example, pears, apples, carrots, celery).

Tips

• For easier cleaning, line the pulp collector with a plastic bag before using the juicer.
• To avoid splashes from pushing through juicier fruits, you may turn the dial to the ‘0’ position before removing the pusher and adding more fruits and vegetables.
• Use fresh fruits and vegetables where possible as they contain the most juice.
• The various varieties of apples yield juices with different flavours and consistencies. Experiment with different varieties to find your favourite combinations.
• Leafy green vegetables (for example, cabbage and spinach) should have their leaves rolled into cylinders of an appropriate size before feeding them into the chute.
• Fibrous fruits and vegetables as well as those with very firm flesh (for example, bananas, mangoes, papayas, avocados) are not well-suited to juicing as these will often result in mashed fruit instead of juice.
• Juice should be consumed right after juicing as it quickly loses important nutrients when exposed to air. Taste can also be affected over time.
• Pure apple juice turns brown quickly when exposed to air. To prevent discoloration, serve apple juice immediately after juicing or add a little lemon juice.
• The pulp collected can be used in other dishes (for example, cakes, vegetable lasagne, muffins).

CLEANING & CARE

Ensure the power cord is unplugged and the juicer has been allowed to cool before cleaning. If the juicer has not been used for a long time, the components must be cleaned.

• Clean the motor with a slightly dampened cloth, and if necessary, with a little detergent.
• Wash the centrifuge bowl, pulp collector, base, and all other detachable components by hand with soapy water or in a dishwasher.
• Do not use any kind of strong or abrasive cleaning agents/materials on the juicer and its components as it may cause damage.
• Allow all components to dry completely before reassembling it.
• Regularly check that the power cord and plug are not damaged. If damaged, stop use immediately and contact help.Kogan.com for assistance
