Operating Instructions
Learn how to effectively use your Kuvings B6000 Whole Slow Juicer for optimal juice extraction.
- Prepare Ingredients: Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly. For whole fruits like apples, ensure they fit into the wide feeding chute. For leafy greens or long, fibrous vegetables, cut them into manageable pieces (approx. 2-3 inches). Remove all hard pits from fruits (e.g., peaches, avocados, cherries).
- Start Juicing: Press the "ON" button to start the motor.
- Feed Ingredients: Slowly feed ingredients into the feeding chute. Allow the auger to pull the ingredients down naturally. Use the pusher only if absolutely necessary to gently guide ingredients, never force them.
- Juicing Process: The juicer will extract juice, which flows into the juice jug, and separate pulp into the pulp container.
- Reverse Function: If ingredients become jammed or the juicer stops, press and hold the "REVERSE" button for a few seconds to clear the blockage. Release the button, then press "ON" again.
- Finish Juicing: Once all ingredients are processed, allow the juicer to run for a few more seconds to ensure all remaining juice is extracted.
- Turn Off: Press the "OFF" button and unplug the appliance from the power outlet.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular and proper cleaning is crucial for maintaining the performance and longevity of your juicer.
- Disassembly: Always unplug the juicer before disassembling. Remove all removable parts in the reverse order of assembly.
- Rinsing: Rinse all removable parts under running water immediately after use. This prevents pulp from drying and sticking, making cleaning easier.
- Washing: Hand washing is recommended for all removable parts. Use the provided cleaning brush to thoroughly clean the strainer, ensuring all pulp residue is removed from the fine mesh. A mild dish soap can be used for all parts.
- Motor Base: Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning products or harsh chemicals. Never immerse the motor base in water or any other liquid.
- Drying and Storage: Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling or storing. Store the juicer in a clean, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat.
