Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your juicer, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Juicer does not turn on:
  Ensure the power plug is securely inserted into a working electrical outlet. Check if there is a power outage or if the circuit breaker has tripped.
• Poor juice extraction or excessive pulp:
  Ensure you are applying gentle, consistent pressure on the fruit. Make sure the fruit is cut in half properly. The juicer is designed to rotate both ways for maximum extraction.
• Juicer is leaking:
  Verify that all parts (juice jug, pulp filter, juicing cone) are correctly assembled and securely seated on the motor base.
