HOW TO PREPARE

FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

• Fresh, crisp thoroughly washed produce is best for juicing. The Omega® Cold Press 365® Wide Mouth Juicer can extract juice from un-peeled fruits and vegetables, but your taste may prefer peeled produce.

• Soft produce will process easier if refrigerated.

• Cut fruits and vegetables into tall, thin pieces to fit in the chute.

• Turn [ON] machine and let it run without interruption until all juice has been extracted.

• Alternate soft and firm items. It is best to start with the softer items and finish with firmer items.

• If the pulp starts to clog the drum, turn [OFF] machine and empty/wash the drum set.
  Reassemble and resume normal operation.

• After placing the last piece of fruit or vegetable into the chute, keep the machine running for a few seconds to ensure all juice is extracted.

• After every use thoroughly clean all parts that come into contact with food or juice with warm water and dishwashing liquid using a cleaning brush.

• Use caution when juicing the following ingredients:

  • Fruits with hard seeds such as plums, peaches, apricots or similar should be pitted before extraction.
  • Stalk vegetables with strong fiber should be cut into tall thin pieces to fit into the hopper.
  • When juicing celery keep the juice flap open and do not use more than l lb. of fresh celery stalks at one time.
  • Because celery contains a lot of minerals and fiber, the pulp may become lodged in the auger and filter basket after a lot of celery is juiced.
  • Only use fresh fruits and vegetables.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Please troubleshoot using the details below before contacting Omega Customer Service for repair or service. When contacting Omega for after-sales service, please have the manufacturer’s serial number or bar code available.

The Appliance Does Not Work

• Make sure the power cord is plugged in correctly.

• Make sure the drum is assembled correctly. If the drum is not locked into place, the appliance will not operate.

• Make sure the appliance is assembled according to the instructions in this manual.
  Refer to the instructions.

• If the appliance still does not work, please contact Omega Customer Service for additional support.
  The drum Does Not Open

• If there is a lot of pulp inside the drum, press [On] to release the excess pulp.

• Check the appliance for any foreign substance or solid objects including seeds.

• Press [Rev] button to push up stuck ingredients.

• Do not attempt to open by force. If the drum still does not open, please contact Omega Customer Service for additional support.

The Appliance Stops During Normal Operation

• Check for large pieces of food stuck in the appliance.

• Refer to the section “If the Auger Stops Working” and follow the guideline for the [Rev] button.

• If the appliance still does not work, please contact Omega Customer Service for additional support.
  Fine Lines or Scratch Marks around the Auger

• This is normal. Do not be concerned. These are molding marks resulting from the normal manufacturing process.

Juice Leaks Over the Base

• Check for an excessive amount of ingredients in the hopper and/or chute.
• If you try to juice a large amount of food compared to the pulp chute, the packing will be slightly pushed away. Juice may leak out of the gap.
• Do not force too much food into the juicer. Push food gradually for extraction.
• Check to make sure the juice flap is closed.

Juicer Shakes when In-Use

• This is normal as the auger rotates. It is not a malfunction. Hard ingredients such as carrots, potato, radish, beets, etc. may cause shaking more so than soft ingredients.
• Depending on the firmness of the ingredient, there may be a more pronounced shaking of the motor.
• Slight shaking may be caused by the motor.
