Operating Instructions
Prepare your fruits and vegetables by washing them thoroughly. For larger items, cut them into pieces that fit comfortably into the food chute. Remove any hard pits or large seeds.
- Ensure the juicer is fully assembled and the juice collector is in place.
- Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet.
- Turn the juicer ON using the power switch located on the motor base.
- Gradually feed prepared fruits and vegetables into the food chute. Use the food pusher to gently guide them down. Avoid excessive force.
- Allow the juicer to process the produce. Fresh juice will flow into the juice collector, and pulp will accumulate in the pulp container.
- Once juicing is complete, turn the juicer OFF and unplug it from the outlet.
