Assembly
BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using your Juice Fountain™ for the first time, remove and safely discard any packaging materials and promotional stickers and labels.
Ensure the appliance is switched OFF at the power outlet and the power cord is unplugged. Wash the filter bowl surround, filter basket, juicer cover, food pusher, pulp container and juice jug and lid in warm, soapy water with a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly. The motor base can be wiped with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
- Place motor base on a flat, dry surface such as a bench top. Ensure that the motor base is switched OFF at the control panel, then switch the appliance off at the power outlet and unplug the power cord.
- Place filter bowl surround on top of the motor base.
- Align the arrows at the base of the stainless steel filter basket with the arrows on the motor drive coupling and push down until it clicks into place. Ensure the stainless steel filter basket is fitted securely inside the filter bowl surround and onto the motor base.
- Place the juicer cover over the filter bowl surround, positioning the feed chute over the stainless steel filter basket and lower into position.
- Raise the safety locking arm up and locate into the two grooves on either side of the juice cover. The safety locking arm should now be in a vertical position and locked into place on top of the juice cover.
- Slide the food pusher down the food chute by aligning the groove in the food pusher with the small protrusion on the inside of the top of the feed tube.
- Place the pulp container into position by tilting the motor base slightly to the right. Insert the pulp container under the juicer cover on the left hand side ensuring it is supported by the juicer cover and motor base.
- Place the juicer jug under the juice spout on the right hand side of the Juice Fountain™. The juice jug lid can be used to avoid any splatter.
NOTE: To minimise cleaning, line the pulp container with a plastic freezer bag to collect the pulp. Pulp can be used in other dishes, or as a compost for the garden or discarded.
Functions
- Wash your selection of fruit and vegetables to be juiced.
NOTE: Most fruit and vegetables such as apples, carrots and cucumbers will not need to be cut or trimmed to size as these will fit whole into the feed chute. Ensure vegetables such as beetroots, carrots etc. have all soil removed, are well washed and trimmed of leaves before using.
- Ensure the Juice Fountain™ is correctly assembled. Refer to Assembling your Breville product. Ensure the juicer jug is placed under the juice spout and pulp container is in position before commencing juicing.
- Plug the power cord into a 230/240V power outlet. Turn the power ON at the power outlet. Adjust the speed to the desired setting. Push the two speed switch either up for low speed or down for high speed depending on the type of fruit or vegetable being juiced. Use the speed selector as a guide for juicing different fruits and vegetables.
- With the motor running, place food into the feed chute and use the food pusher to gently guide food down. To extract the maximum amount of juice, always push the food pusher down slowly.
NOTE: To include the froth with your juice, simply remove the lid of the juice jug when pouring juice into the glass.
- As fruit and vegetables are processed, juice will flow into the juice jug and the separated pulp will accumulate in the pulp container.
NOTES: The pulp container can be emptied during juicing by turning the Juice Fountain™ OFF at the control panel and then carefully removing the pulp container. Replace empty pulp container before continuing to juice. Do not allow the pulp container to overfill as this may affect the operation of the appliance.
NOTE: The juicer is fitted with a safety device which safeguards against overheating with excessive loads. If overheating occurs, the juicer will automatically activate the overload protection device and the unit will switch itself off. When the overload protection is activated, unplug the Juicer from the power outlet for at least 15 minutes to allow the unit to cool. Then plug juicer into the power outlet and use as normal.
WARNING: Never use fingers to push food down the feed chute or to clear the feed chute. Always use the food pusher provided.
NOTE: To minimise cleaning, line the pulp container with a plastic freezer bag to collect the pulp. Pulp can then be used for other dishes, or as compost for gardens or discard.

Care & Cleaning
Ensure the Juice Fountain™ is turned off by switching the ON/OFF button on the control panel to OFF. Then switch the appliance off at the power outlet and unplug the power cord. Ensure the Juice Fountain™ is correctly disassembled. Refer to disassembling your Breville product.
FOR EASY CLEANING:
- Clean as you go and avoid dried on juice or pulp residue.
- Immediately after each use, rinse removable parts in hot water to remove wet pulp. Allow parts to air dry.
NOTE: To minimise cleaning, line the pulp container with a plastic freezer bag to collect the pulp. Pulp can then be used for other dishes, or as compost for the garden or discarded.
CLEANING THE MOTOR BASE
- Wipe the motor base with a soft, damp cloth then dry thoroughly.
- Wipe any excess food particles from the power cord.
NOTE: Do not use abrasive scouring pads or cleaners when cleaning the parts or motor base as they may scratch the surface.
CLEANING THE FILTER BOWL SURROUND, JUICER COVER, FOOD PUSHER, PULP CONTAINER
- Wash all parts in warm soapy water with a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
NOTES: The filter bowl surround, juicing jug and lid and pulp container, are dishwasher safe (top shelf only). The juice cover and food pusher are not dishwasher safe.
CLEANING THE FILTER BASKET
- For consistent juicing results always ensure that the stainless steel filter basket is thoroughly cleaned using the supplied cleaning brush.
- Soak the stainless steel filter basket in hot soapy water for approximately 10 minutes immediately after juicing is completed. If pulp is left to dry on the filter it may clog the fine pores of the filter mesh thereby lessening the effectiveness of the juicer.
- Using the cleaning brush, hold the filter basket under running water and brush from the inside of the basket to the outer rim. Avoid touching the small sharp blades in the centre of the filter basket. After cleaning the filter basket, hold it up towards a light to ensure the fine mesh holes are not blocked. If the holes are blocked, soak the filter basket in hot water with 10% lemon juice to loosen the blocked holes. Alternatively, wash the filter basket in the dishwasher.
Do not soak the stainless steel filter basket in bleach or other abrasive cleansers. Always treat the filter basket with care as it can be easily damaged.
NOTE: The stainless steel filter basket is dishwasher safe (top shelf only).
CLEANING THE JUICE JUG
- Rinse the juice jug and lid with froth attachment under running water.
- Wash both parts in warm soapy water with a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
NOTE: The juice jug and lid are dishwasher safe (top shelf only).
REMOVING STUBBORN OR STRONG FOOD STAINS AND ODOURS
Discolouration of the plastic may occur with strongly coloured fruit and vegetables. To help prevent this, wash parts immediately after use. If discolouration does occur, the plastic parts can be soaked in water with 10% lemon juice or they can be cleaned with a non abrasive cleaner.

Troubleshooting
POSSIBLE PROBLEM | EASY SOLUTION |
---|---|
Machine will not work when switched ON | The safety locking arm may not be correctly engaged in the vertical operating position with the locking arm located into the two grooves on either side of the juicer cover. |
Motor appears to stall when juicing | Wet pulp can build up under the juicer cover if the juicing action is too vigorous. Try slower juicing action by pushing the food pusher down more slowly. Follow Disassembling and Cleaning instructions and clean the filter bowl surround, the stainless steel filter basket and the juicer cover. The juicer will automatically stop operating if the motor is stalled for more than 10 seconds. To reset the juicer, switch it off on the speed selection switch and then switch back on to the selected speed setting in order to continue juicing. The reasons for the motor to stall could be due to either too much food is being processed at one time, the pieces are not small enough or too much pressure is applied to the food pusher. Try trimming the food or cutting into smaller pieces of even size and processing a smaller amount per batch. Only apply gentle pressure onto the food pusher when juicing. Hard fruit and vegetables will put excess strain onto the motor if a low speed is selected. Please refer to the juicing guide to determine the correct speed for the fruit and vegetables selected for juicing. |
Excess pulp building up in the stainless steel filter basket | Stop the juicing process and follow Disassembling instructions. Remove the juicer cover, scrape off pulp, reassemble and begin juicing again. Try alternating (soft and hard) vegetables and fruit varieties. |
Pulp too wet and reduced extracted juice | Try a slower juicing action. Remove the stainless steel filter basket and thoroughly clean mesh walls with a cleaning brush. Rinse the filter basket under hot water. If the fine mesh holes are blocked, soak the basket in a solution of hot water with 10% lemon juice to unlock the holes or wash in the dishwasher. This will remove excess fibre build up (from fruit and vegetables) which could be inhibiting the flow. |
Juice leaks between the rim of the juicer and the juicer cover | Try a slower juicing speed and push the food pusher down the feed chute more slowly. |
Juice sprays out from spout | The juice is being extracted too fast. Try a slower juicing speed and push the food pusher down the feed chute more slowly. |
Overheating with excessive loads. | The juicer is fitted with a safety device which safeguards against overheating with excessive loads. If overheating occurs, the juicer will automatically activate the overload protection device and the unit will switch itself off. When the overload protection is activated, unplug the Juicer from the power outlet for at least 15 minutes to allow the unit to cool. Then plug the juicer into the power outlet and use as normal. |
Tips
THE INSIDE INFORMATION ON JUICING
Although the juice drinks contained in this booklet were developed with flavour, texture and aroma at the forefront, the health benefits certainly add to the pleasurable taste experience.
Up to 70% of the nutrient content of fruit and vegetables is found in the juice. Liquids extracted from fresh fruit and vegetables form an important part of a well-balanced healthy diet. Fresh fruit and vegetables juices are an easy source of vitamins and minerals. Juices are rapidly absorbed into the blood stream therefore being the quickest way in which the body can digest nutrients.
When you make your own fruit and vegetable juices, you have complete control over what is included. Select the ingredients and decide if you need to add sugar, salt or other flavouring agents after juicing. Freshly extracted juices should be consumed immediately after they have been processed to avoid a loss of vitamin content.
PURCHASING AND STORAGE OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES
- Always wash fruit and vegetables before juicing.
- Always use fresh fruit and vegetables for juicing.
- To save money and obtain fresher produce, purchase fruit or vegetables that are in season. Refer to the Fruit and Vegetable Facts chart.
- Keep your fruit and vegetables ready for juicing by washing and drying them before storing.
- Most fruits and hardier type vegetables can be stored at room temperature. The more delicate and perishable items such as tomatoes, berries, leafy greens, celery, cucumbers and herbs should be stored in the refrigerator until required.
PREPARATION OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES
- If using fruits with hard or inedible skins such as mangoes, citrus, melons or pineapple, always peel before juicing.
- Some vegetables, such as cucumbers can be processed unpeeled depending on the softness of the skin and the juicing requirements.
- All fruits with large piths, hard seeds or stones such as nectarines, peaches, mangoes, apricots, plums and cherries must be pitted before juicing.
- Ensure vegetables such as beetroot, carrots, etc. have all soil removed, are well washed and trimmed of leaves before juicing.
- Ensure fruits such as strawberries are hulled before juicing and pears have their stalks removed.
- Citrus fruit can be juiced in the Juice Fountain™ but remove the skin and excess pith before juicing.
- A small amount of lemon juice can be added to apple juice to reduce discolouration.
NOTE: Your Juice Fountain™ makes invigorating, frothy orange juice. Simply peel the oranges and remove any excess pith before juicing. It is best to refrigerate oranges before juicing.
THE RIGHT TECHNIQUE
When juicing a variety of ingredients with varying textures, start with the softer texture ingredients on LOW speed and then gradually change to HIGH speed for the harder textured ingredients.
If you are juicing herbs, sprouts or other leafy green vegetables, either wrap them together to form a bundle or juice them in the middle of a combination of ingredients on LOW speed to obtain the best extraction.
NOTE: If juicing herbs or leafy green vegetables on their own, the juice yield will be low due to the nature of centrifugal juicing. It is advised to juice them with a combination of other fruit and vegetables.
All fruit and vegetables produce different amounts of liquids. This varies within the same group i.e. one batch of tomatoes can produce more juice than another batch. Since juice recipes are not exact, the precise quantities of any juice are not crucial to the success of a particular mixture.
To extract the maximum amount of juice always push the food pusher down slowly.
GETTING THE RIGHT BLEND
It is easy to create great tasting juice. If you have been making your own vegetable or fruit juices, then you know how simple it is to invent new combinations. Taste, colour, texture and ingredient preferences are a personal choice. Think of some flavours and foods – would they work well together or would they clash. Some strong flavours could over power the more subtle flavours of others. It is however, a good rule to combine starchy, pulpy fruit and vegetables with those high in moisture.
USING THE PULP
The remaining pulp left after juicing fruit and vegetables is mostly fibre and cellulose which, like the nutrients in juice, are necessary for the daily diet and can be used in many ways. However, like the juice, pulp should be used that day to avoid loss of vitamins.
There are a number of recipes contained in this book for the use of pulp. Apart from these, pulp can be used to add bulk to rissole mixtures, thicken casseroles or soups.
Apart from consumption use, pulp is great to create compost for the garden.
NOTE: When using the pulp, there may be some pieces of fruit or vegetables remaining. These should be removed before using the pulp in any recipes.
