5. Operating Instructions
To operate your AMZCHEF Slow Juicer:
- Prepare your fruits and vegetables. For most items, pre-cutting is not necessary due to the 120MM wide feed chute. Remove large seeds or hard pits from fruits like peaches or avocados.
- Plug the juicer into a suitable power outlet.
- Turn the control switch to the "ON" position to start the motor.
- Slowly feed ingredients into the wide feed chute. The automatic cutting mechanism will process them.
- The juicer will extract juice into the juice cup and expel pulp into the pulp container.
- If ingredients get stuck, switch to the "REV" (Reverse) position for a few seconds to clear the blockage, then return to "ON".
- Once juicing is complete, turn the control switch to "OFF" and unplug the appliance.
