5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Ingredient Preparation
- Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly.
- For ingredients with hard seeds or pits (e.g., peaches, plums, avocados), remove them before juicing.
- While the wide chute reduces pre-cutting, very fibrous ingredients (e.g., celery, ginger) may benefit from being cut into smaller pieces to prevent clogging.
- For leafy greens, roll them into a tight ball before inserting.
5.2 Juicing Process
- Ensure the juicer is assembled correctly and the juice and pulp cups are in place.
- Turn the power switch to the "ON" position.
- Slowly feed ingredients into the wide feeding chute. Allow the auger to process the ingredients at its own pace. Do not force ingredients down.
- Use the provided pusher only if necessary to guide ingredients, never to force them.
- The Smart Cap on the juice outlet allows you to mix different juices inside the bowl before dispensing, or to temporarily hold juice. Close the cap during juicing if you wish to mix.
- Once juicing is complete, turn the power switch to "OFF" and unplug the appliance.

6. Cleaning and Maintenance
Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your juicer.
- Disassembly: Unplug the juicer. Disassemble the parts in reverse order of assembly: remove the feeding chute tube, then the pressing screw, juice strainer, rotation wiper, and finally the extraction bowl.
- Rinse: Rinse all removable parts under running water immediately after use to prevent pulp from drying and sticking.
- Clean with Brushes: Use the provided cleaning brush and circular brush to thoroughly clean the juice strainer and other components. Pay special attention to the mesh of the strainer.
- Wash: Wash all removable parts with warm, soapy water. All removable parts are BPA-free and can be hand-washed. Note: The motor base should never be immersed in water. Wipe it with a damp cloth.
- Dry and Store: Dry all parts completely before reassembling or storing. Store the juicer in a clean, dry place.
The design of the Kuvings B9700 has been optimized for simplified cleaning with a reduced number of parts.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your juicer, refer to the following common problems and solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Juicer does not turn on. | Not plugged in; parts not assembled correctly; safety lock not engaged. | Ensure the power cord is securely plugged in. Check that all parts are correctly assembled and locked into place. |
