BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using your juicer for the first time, remove and safely discard any packaging materials and promotional stickers and labels.
Ensure the appliance is switched off at the power outlet and the power cord is unplugged.
Wash the filter bowl surround, filter basket, juicer cover, food pusher, pulp container and juice jug and lid in warm, soapy water with a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
- Place motor base on a flat, dry surface such as a bench top. Ensure that the juicer is switched to OFF at the dial, and the power cord is unplugged.
- Place filter bowl surround on top of the motor base.
- Align the arrows at the base of the stainless steel filter basket with the arrows on the motor drive coupling and push down until it clicks into place to create a secure fit with the motor base.
- Place the juicer cover over the filter bowl surround, positioning the lower part of the feed chute over the stainless steel filter basket.
- Raise the safety locking arm up and locate into the two grooves on either side of the juice cover.
- The safety locking arm should now be in a vertical position and locked into place on top of the juice cover.
- Slide the food pusher down the food chute by aligning the groove in the food pusher, with the small protrusion on the inside of the top of the feed tube.
- Place the pulp container into position by tilting the motor base slightly to the right. Insert the pulp container under the juicer cover on the left hand side ensuring it is supported by the juicer cover and motor base.
- Place the juicer jug under the juice spout on the right hand side of the juicer, and place the lid to avoid splatter.
JUICE JUG
Juice can be preserved in the juice jug for up to 3 days by following these steps.
- Lift the lid off the jug and rotate 180°.
- Press down firmly to replace the lid.
- Store juice in the fridge.
NOTE
Storage time depends on the ingredients being juiced and the freshness of the fruit prior to juicing. Juice must be stored in the refrigerator between 2°C to 4°C.
- Plug the power cord into a 220240V power outlet. Turn the power ON at the power outlet. Adjust the speed to the desired setting. Turn the dial to either the LOW or HIGH setting depending on the type of fruit or vegetable being juiced. Use the speed selector as a guide for juicing different fruits and vegetables.
- With the motor running, place food into the feed chute and use the food pusher to gently guide food down. To extract the maximum amount of juice, always push the food pusher down slowly.

WARNING
Never use fingers, hands or utensils to push food down the feed chute or to clear the feed chute. Always use the food pusher provided.
The stainless steel filter basket contains small sharp blades to cut and process fruit and vegetables. Avoid touching the blades when handling the filter basket.
Ensure the juicer is turned off by turning the juicer dial to the OFF position. Then switch the appliance off at the power outlet and unplug the power cord.
CLEANING
Rinse all parts after use (except the motor base) under running water to clear away the majority of juice and pulp. Wash in warm soapy water with a soft cloth. To avoid food drying on to the blades, mesh or transparent parts, rinse and wash as soon as possible after use.
PULP CONTAINER
To minimise cleaning, you can line the pulp container with a biodegradable bag to collect the pulp.
MOTOR BASE
Do not immerse the motor base in liquids. To clean the motor base, wipe with a soft, damp cloth then dry thoroughly. Wipe any excess food particles from the power cord.
CLEANING AGENTS
Do not use abrasive scouring pads or cleaners on either the motor base or the jug,as they may scratch the surface. Use only warm soapy water with a soft cloth.
DISHWASHER
Wash all parts (except the motor base) in warm soapy water with a soft cloth. The filter bowl surround, stainless steel filter basket, pulp container and juice jug are dishwasher safe. Wash on a standard cycle, on the top shelf only. The juice cover and food pusher are not dishwasher safe.
FILTER BASKET
To ensure consistent juicing results, always clean the filter basket thoroughly immediately after use.
If pulp is left to dry, it may clog the fine pores of the filter mesh, which can effect juicing performance. The filter basket can be soaked in hot soapy water for 10 minutes, if necessary.
Hold the filter basket under running water and use brush (supplied with the juicer) in a circular motion to clear away pulp from the inside of the basket, including the blades. Turn over to brush away pulp from the outside of the basket, and repeat if necessary.
After cleaning, hold up towards a light source to check that the fine mesh pores are not blocked. If blocked, soak the filter basket in hot water with 10% lemon juice to loosen, and brush under running water again. Do not soak the filter basket in bleach, harsh chemicals or abrasive cleansers.
Always treat the filter basket with care, as it can be easily damaged. Do not use if there is any damage or deformation to the filter mesh.
Filter basket can be washed in the dishwasher (top shelf).
The centre of the filter basket has an array of small, sharp blades. Do not touch these blades when handling the filter basket.
STUBBORN FOOD STAINS
Discolouration of the plastic may occur with strongly coloured fruit and vegetables. To help prevent this, wash parts immediately after use.
If discolouration does occur, the plastic parts can be soaked in water with 10% lemon juice or they can be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaner.
Juicer will not work when switched ON | • The safety locking arm may not be correctly engaged in the vertical operating position. Check the top cover is properly aligned and the locking arm is located firmly into the two grooves on either side of the juicer cover. • Motor overload protection may have operated (see below). |
Overheating with excessive loads | • The juicer is equipped with an internal self-resetting overload to prevent the motor from damage under heavy or continuous loads. If the motor suddenly stops working, turn the ON / OFF dial to OFF, and unplug the unit from the power outlet. Allow the juicer to cool for up to 30 minutes before operating again. NOTE: The unit MUST be unplugged from the power outlet in order for it to cool properly and be reset. • Despite this overload protector, we suggest juicing in smaller batches using a more gentle pressure to push produce down the chute in order to protect the motor. |
Excess pulp building up in the stainless steel filter basket | • Stop juicing, disassemble to scoop excess pulp off the juicer cover. Reassemble and continue juicing. Alternating soft and hard ingredients may help avoid this. |
Pulp too wet and reduced extracted juice | • The cleaner the filter, the better the juice yield, and dryer the pulp. Be sure to thoroughly clean the juicer as soon as possible after each use. Remove the stainless steel filter basket and thoroughly clean mesh walls with a cleaning brush. Rinse the filter basket under hot water. If the fine mesh holes are blocked, soak the basket in a solution of hot water with 10% lemon juice to unlock the holes or wash in the dishwasher. This will remove excess fibre build up (from fruit and vegetables) which could be inhibiting the flow. |
Juice leaks between the rim of the Juicer and the juicer cover | • Try a slower juicing speed and push the food pusher down the feed chute more slowly. |
Juice sprays out from spout | • The juice is being extracted too fast: try a slower juicing speed (if possible) and push the food pusher down the feed chute more slowly. |
Motor appears to stall when juicing | • Wet pulp can build up under the juicer cover and stall the juicer if the juicer is used excessively without cleaning. If this occurs, disassemble and follow the cleaning instructions to clean the filter bowl surround, the stainless steel filter basket and the juicer cover. • The juicer will automatically stop operating if either too much food is being processed at one time or the pieces are not small enough. Try trimming the food or cutting into smaller pieces of even size and processing a smaller amount per batch. To continue juicing, reset the juicer by turning the juicer OFF and back ON. • Allow the motor to reach full speed before putting ingredients in the chute. Pressing ingredients down before the juicer reaches full speed can cause the motor to stall or overload. Use gentle to moderate pressure on the pusher. Lower pressure produces a better juice yield. • Hard fruit and vegetables will put excess strain onto the motor if a low speed is selected. Refer to the juicing guide to determine the correct speed for the fruit and vegetables selected for juicing. |
Unit stops & overload protection LED flashes | • This indicates the motor speed is slowed down to an inefficient level. This may be caused by too heavy pushing force on the pusher or too much pulp sticking onto the lid or in the pulp bin. Using moderate pushing force on the food pusher or regularly cleaning the lid and pulp bin can prevent this situation from happening. |
Overload Protection LED is on | • This indicates motor overload protection is activated. To reset the unit, unplug the unit from power and let the motor cool down for 10 to 15 minutes, and plug the power on again. |
