2. Setup and Assembly

Before first use, ensure all parts are clean. Refer to the cleaning section for initial cleaning instructions.

Assembly Steps:

1. Place the main motor base on a stable, flat surface.
2. Align the juice bowl with the motor base and gently press down until it locks into place.
3. Insert the filter basket into the juice bowl, ensuring it sits securely.
4. Place the auger (juicing screw) into the center of the filter basket.
5. Attach the feeding chute assembly onto the top of the juice bowl, aligning the arrows or markings, and twist clockwise until it locks securely. You should hear a click or feel it firmly seated.
6. Place the pulp container and juice cup under their respective spouts.
7. Ensure the power cord is connected to a suitable electrical outlet (100-120V or 220-240V depending on your model and plug type).

3. Operating Instructions

Preparation:

• Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly.
• The juicer features a wide 78mm (3.07 inch) feed chute, allowing you to juice whole fruits like apples. For harder or larger items, it is recommended to cut them into smaller pieces to prevent strain on the motor and ensure efficient juicing.
• Remove any hard pits or large seeds from fruits (e.g., peaches, plums, mangoes).

Juicing Process:

1. Ensure the juice cup and pulp container are correctly positioned.
2. Turn the power switch to the 'I' (ON) position. The motor will start.
3. Gradually feed fruits and vegetables into the feed chute. Use the food pusher if necessary, but do not force ingredients. Allow the auger to slowly process the produce.
4. The juicer will separate juice into the juice cup and pulp into the pulp container.
5. Magic Plug Feature: The juice spout is equipped with a magic plug. Close the plug to prevent juice from dripping and to allow different juices to mix inside the bowl before dispensing, which helps in preserving flavor and reducing oxidation. Open the plug to dispense the juice.
6. When finished, turn the power switch to the 'O' (OFF) position.

• 'I' Position: Starts the juicer for normal operation.
• 'O' Position: Turns the juicer off.
• 'R' Position (Reverse Rotation): Use this setting to help dislodge any stuck or jammed ingredients. Hold the switch in the 'R' position for a few seconds, then release. Do not operate in reverse for extended periods.

4. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and longevity of your juicer.

Cleaning Steps:

1. Always unplug the juicer from the power outlet before cleaning.
2. Disassemble the juicer by reversing the assembly steps.
3. Rinse all removable parts (feeding chute, auger, filter basket, juice bowl, pulp container, juice cup) under running water immediately after use to prevent pulp from drying and sticking.
4. Use the included cleaning brush to thoroughly clean the filter basket, as small pulp particles can get lodged in the mesh.
5. Wash all removable parts with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow them to air dry completely before reassembling or storing.
6. Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth. Never immerse the motor base in water or any other liquid.

5. Troubleshooting

• Juicer stops or jams: If ingredients get stuck, turn the juicer off ('O'), then briefly switch to the 'R' (Reverse) position to dislodge the blockage. Repeat if necessary. If the issue persists, disassemble and clear any obstructions.
• Low juice yield: Ensure fruits and vegetables are fresh. For fibrous ingredients, cut them into smaller pieces.
• Motor not starting: Check if the juicer is properly assembled and all parts are securely locked. The juicer has safety features that prevent operation if not correctly assembled. Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet.

7. User Tips

• For best results with hard vegetables like carrots or beets, cut them into smaller, thinner sticks before feeding them into the juicer.
• If juicing leafy greens, it can be helpful to alternate them with harder fruits or vegetables to push them through the auger more effectively.
• Always use the reverse function ('R') if you notice the juicer struggling or if ingredients appear to be jamming. This can prevent motor strain.
