Operation

STEP 1

After preparing the ingredients, plug the power cord into a wall outlet.

Notes:

• Do not touch the power cord with wet hands. It may cause electrical shock, short-circuit, or fire.
• Check the safety of the wall outlet.

STEP 2

Press the FORWARD button to operate.

Notes:

• Forward: Pulls down and slowly masticates the ingredients.
• Reverse: Pushes the ingredients back up to dislodge them.

If the ingredients become jammed in the screw and the drum lid does not open, press the OFF button. Then press and hold the REVERSE button until the ingredients become dislodged. Repeat REVERSE - OFF - FORWARD as often as needed to achieve the desired result.

If the juicer stops during operation:

Switch the button to OFF position, then press and hold the REVERSE button until the ingredients become dislodged. Repeat REVERSE - OFF - FORWARD as needed.

Diagram showing FWD, REV, OFF buttons.

Notes:

• Reverse: Pushes the ingredients back up to dislodge them. The REVERSE button only works while holding down the switch.
• Switch OFF ensuring that the juicer comes to a complete stop. Then press REVERSE. Hold the REVERSE button for 2-3 seconds and release. Repeat as needed. Let the juicer stop completely before using the REVERSE button to prevent malfunction.
• If the juicer does not work after these steps, disassemble and clean the parts before operating the juicer again.

STEP 3

Insert the prepared ingredients one piece at a time.

Notes:

• Fibrous leafy vegetables (celery, kale, etc.): Separate each stem. Cut the outer stems that are thick and tough to 10 cm long or less. Bundle up the leafy vegetables when inserting into the juicer. Alternate between leafy parts and stems.
• Before extracting, remove hard seeds or pits in ingredients.
• When juicing frozen fruits with small seeds, ensure that even the seeds are completely thawed.
• Insert the ingredients one piece at a time.

TIP:

• Align the dots and slide the pusher in.
• After inserting ingredients, use the pusher when it is necessary. Too much use of the pusher may affect the juice quality.
• Intermittently use the pusher for soft ingredients like tomatoes and apples. Constant use of the pusher for soft ingredients may affect the juice quality.

STEP 4

Use the smart cap to make mixed juices, stop juice from dripping, or rinse between different juices.

TIP:

• Juicing with the smart cap closed creates various mixed juice creations when different fruits and vegetables, milk, banana, beans, etc., are selected.
• After juicing, close the smart cap to stop the juice from dripping, especially when disassembling the juicing bowl off the base.
• When making different juices, quickly rinse away any leftover flavors by running a glass of water in the juicer with the smart cap closed.

Note:

• Leave the smart cap open when juicing ingredients that create excessive foam during extraction (e.g., apples, celery).
• Pay close attention when operating with the smart cap closed. Juice may overflow if the juice collected in the juicing bowl exceeds its capacity marked on the bowl.

STEP 5

After juice and pulp are completely extracted, switch the unit OFF.

Notes:

• If the remaining ingredients in the juicing bowl have not been extracted completely, the drum lid may not open easily. After each extraction, run the juicer for an additional 30 seconds to let the juicer extract the remaining pulp.
• When the drum lid is stuck, press the REVERSE - OFF - FORWARD button in this order; switching back and forth 2 or 3 times to dislodge the ingredients. Then place hands on top of the drum lid and firmly press down while simultaneously turning the drum lid counter clockwise to open.
• Depending on the ingredients, pour water down the feeding tube to rinse out the interior of the juicing bowl and then attempt to remove the drum lid.

Tips on Operation

1. Operating the juicer without ingredients can cause damage to the screw.
2. Do not continuously operate the juicer for more than 30 minutes. This can damage the motor from overheating. After continuous use, let the juicer rest for 30 minutes to cool down before starting another session.
3. Do not put hand, utensil, tong, or other objects into the feeding tube other than the provided pusher.
4. During operation, do not put spoon, spatula, or other objects into the juice spout of the juicing bowl. If other objects are put into the juice spout during operation, such materials can get stuck and damage the juicer parts.
5. Do not put dried whole grains, fruits with hard seeds, or ice. These may damage the juicer parts (e.g., juicing bowl, juicing screw, and strainer).
   • Beans or grains can be used if soaked overnight or boiled. (Do not use more than 500g per each session.)
   • Fruits with pits and hard seeds (e.g., nectarines, peaches, mangoes, and cherries) must be pitted before juicing.
   • When using frozen fruits with small seeds such as grapes, completely thaw before inserting them into the juicer.
   • Use of ice in the juicer will decrease the product durability over time.
6. Do not use ingredients containing excessive amounts of vegetable oil or animal fat. Do not use the juicer to extract vegetable oil from ingredients. If vegetable/animal oil gets on the juicing screw, it may reduce performance and even damage the part.
7. Do not reinsert the extracted pulp into the juicer. This can cause the juicer to stop or cause the drum lid not to open.
8. After juicing ingredients with seeds like grapes, thoroughly clean all the crevices on the bottom of the juicing screw.

Tips on Ingredients

Juicer damage due to owner negligence or from not following the instructions in the owner's manual will void the warranty service.

DO NOT put the following ingredients into the juicer:

• Hard seeds: Peach, nectarines, apricot, plum, mango, etc. Remove hard seeds from the ingredients before juicing.
• Hard or inedible skins: Pineapple, melon, mango, orange, etc. Peel the skins from the ingredients before juicing.
• Frozen fruits or ice: Frozen strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, etc. Completely thaw frozen fruits before juicing. Do not use ice.
• Vegetable/animal oil: Sesame seed, butter, margarine, etc. Do not extract ingredients containing vegetable or animal oil. This can reduce performance and even damage the juicer.
• Others: Coconut, sugarcane, whole grains, etc. Do not extract ingredients with no water content.

Experience the best quality juice by understanding each ingredient's characteristics and knowing the optimal way of handling the ingredients.

The Slow Juicer is an innovative product that uses a patented slow-speed masticating technology to efficiently extract the juice from ingredients. The juicer is designed to obtain the best result from ingredients with firm composition and with high water content. For best result, each ingredient should be prepared and extracted depending on its characteristics and properties.

Ingredients Preparation

Before Operating:

• If the juicer is jammed or if the drum lid does not open, press the REVERSE button and hold until it becomes dislodged. Repeat REVERSE-OFF-FORWARD as needed.
• Continue operating the juicer until all the ingredients in the juicing bowl are extracted. The drum lid may not open easily if there is a lot of pulp remaining in the juicer.
• Every ingredient yields different amounts of juice.

Juice Yield:

• For the optimal extraction and maximum juice yield, cut the ingredients following the guidelines given in this section.
• Insert ingredients slowly, monitoring how the ingredients are extracted. The juice yield may vary depending on the juicing speed.

Soft fruits and vegetables (e.g., oranges, tomatoes):

Diagrams showing preparation of fruits like apples and oranges.

PREPARATION TIPS:

• Peel the skin off oranges, and for tomatoes and apples, take out the stem.
• If the ingredients are larger than the feeding tube, cut the ingredients into pieces that will fit into the feeding tube.
• Fruits with seeds must be pitted before extraction. Cut to 1-4 wedges then slowly insert the ingredients down the feeding tube.

EXTRACTION TIPS:

• Slowly insert the ingredients one piece at a time.
• Use the pusher to push the ingredients down the feeding tube. (The pusher also helps prevent juice from spraying out of the feeding tube when extracting ingredients with high water content)
• Leave the smart cap open when juicing ingredients that create excessive foam during extraction. (Foam can accumulate if operated with the smart cap closed.)
• It is recommended that the extracted juice be consumed within 48 hours after extracting. Depending on the density of the ingredients, the extracted juice can gradually show layers over time.
• If there is an excessive amount of foam, use a mesh strainer to separate it from the juice.
• When an ingredient is being masticated by the juicing screw, the squeezed ingredient may splash juice through the feeding tube. Use the pusher to block out the juice splash when juicing.

How to Use the Smart Cap:

• Juicing with the smart cap closed allows mixed juice creations with different fruits, vegetables, and liquids.
• After juicing, close the smart cap to block excess juice from dripping, especially when disassembling the juicing bowl off the base.
• When making different juices, quickly rinse away any leftover flavors by running a glass of water in the juicer with the smart cap closed.
• Leave the smart cap open when juicing ingredients that create excessive foam during extraction (e.g., apples, celery).
• Pay close attention when operating the juicer with the smart cap closed. Juice may overflow if the juice collected in the juicing bowl exceeds its capacity marked on the juicing bowl.

Adjusting the amount of pulp in the juice:

• Depending on the ingredient, you may get extra pulp in the juice when juicing continuously.
• To reduce the amount of pulp, disassemble the top-set and wash frequently.

Hard fruits and vegetables (e.g., carrots, potato, beets & spinach):

Diagrams showing preparation of carrots and potatoes.

PREPARATION TIPS:

• Slice the ingredients 2.5 cm thick or cut 2.5 cm wide and 5-15 cm long.
• Soak hard ingredients like carrots and ginger in cold water prior to juicing.

EXTRACTION TIPS:

• Slowly insert the ingredients one at a time.
• Pace the juicing speed ensuring each ingredient is thoroughly extracted.
• To maximize the juice yield, juice with ingredients with high water content.

Ingredients Preparation

Ingredients with small seeds (e.g. raspberry, pomegranate, grape):

Slowly insert ingredients with small seeds to prevent the seeds from clogging the strainer.

Diagrams showing preparation of grapes, apple, and a character representing berries.

PREPARATION TIPS:

• When juicing frozen ingredients (e.g., raspberry, strawberry), make sure they are completely thawed.
• Thoroughly rinse ingredients like grapes. Take the grapes off and discard the stem.
• For pomegranate, discard the skin and juice only the inner part.

EXTRACTION TIPS:

• Depending on the size of the grape, insert 3-5 grapes at a time while monitoring the extraction result.
• Thaw frozen ingredients like pomegranate and raspberry, then insert about 1 tablespoon (5g) at a time.
• Frozen ingredients usually lose significant amount of fluid from thawing. When juicing, mix milk or yogurt to balance the fluid lost.

Caution: If the lid does not open due to an excessive amount of small seeds left in the juicing bowl, continuously run the juicer for 30 seconds to extract any leftover seeds. If the lid is still stuck, repeat REVERSE - OFF - FORWARD until the ingredients become dislodged. Then twist the lid to open while pushing downwards on the lid with palms (depending on the ingredient, pour some water down the feeding tube for quick rinsing to help dislodging).

Fibrous and/or tough leafy ingredients (e.g. celery, kale, pineapple):

Fibrous ingredients like celery and kale should be cut into small lengths before juicing.

Diagrams showing preparation of celery, kale, and pineapple.

PREPARATION TIPS:

• Soak fibrous ingredients in cold water for about 30 minutes before cutting them.
• Separate each stem. Cut the outer stems that are thick and tough to 5 cm long or less.

EXTRACTION TIPS:

• One at a time, slowly insert the prepared ingredients.
• Insert more ingredients after the previously inserted ingredients have been completely extracted.
• Roll leaves in spiral when inserting into the juicer.
• Insert the leafy part of the ingredients first, then alternate between leafy parts and stems.
• For ingredients like wheatgrass, grab a handful and insert in a bundle.

Caution:

• The fibers from tough ingredients like celery can wrap around the juicing screw and affect the juicer's performance. Cut the stems that are thick and tough to 5 cm long or less.
• Foam can build up from juicing fibrous ingredients. Use a strainer to remove the foam before serving.
• For ingredients like pineapple, slice off the rind of the pineapple and cut around the fibrous core. Cut the flesh of the pineapple to smaller pieces.
• Recommended amount of juicing per session is 500g. When juicing more than 500g, wash the top-set before continuing juicing.

How to Disassemble and Clean

1. Switch OFF and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
   Notes: Extract all the remaining pulp in the juicing bowl before stopping the juicer. For easier clean up, operate the juicer for an additional 30 seconds after the juice is extracted. When the drum lid is stuck, press the REVERSE - OFF - FORWARD button in this order, switching back and forth 2 to 3 times to dislodge. Then place both hands on the drum lid and firmly press down while simultaneously turning the drum lid to open. *Fill the juicing bowl with water and run the juicer before opening the drum lid. It may help to open the drum lid when stuck.

CAUTION

• When using frozen ingredients, make sure to thaw your frozen ingredients for about 5 to 20 minutes before use. (The required period to thaw the ingredients will depend on how long the ingredients were in the freezer and the temperature it was kept in.)
• When making smoothie, add milk or other types of liquid between ingredients. Check the consistency of the smoothie by looking through the juicing bowl, and add more liquid as needed.
• Please do not insert ingredients like ice, meat, oil, or fat-based ingredients. These ingredients may damage the components.
• Please remove hard or thick seeds, pits, or peel before use.

How to Clean the Silicone Wipers

The silicone wipers are removable for cleaning. After cleaning, place the silicone wipers back onto the frame as shown in the picture.

TIP: Insert into the slot with the tail pointing down.

Troubleshooting Q&A

If the juicer is not powered:

• Check if the power cord is plugged in correctly.
• Check if the drum lid and the juicing bowl are assembled correctly.
• Check if the top-set and the body are assembled correctly.
• The juicer will not operate if parts are not assembled properly.

Low juice yield:

• Different ingredients hold different amounts of fluid that will yield different amounts of juice.
• If the ingredients are not fresh, they may contain reduced amount of fluid, which will yield less juice. Soak ingredients in cold water for about 30 min prior to juicing for the best result.
• Check if the compression silicone is firmly inserted.
• If the ingredient itself has low water content, it may help to soak it in water before juicing.
• If juicing ingredients with small seeds, after a few servings, it may reduce the juice yield. For best result, disassemble and wash the top-set in between juicing.
• If there is seed residue on the bottom of the strainer, this can affect juicer performance and the overall juice yield.

There is too much pulp in the juice:

• To reduce the fine pulp, clean the top-set frequently and extract the pulp.
• Use a mesh strainer and put the juice through it to collect the unwanted pulp.
• If the strainer and the screw are damaged and affecting the juicer's performance, it is recommended the parts be replaced.
• The lifetime of each part may vary depending on length and method of use and ingredients extracted.

The drum lid will not close:

• Make sure the juicing screw is pushed all the way into the strainer in order for the drum lid to close properly.
• If the juicing screw is not properly in position, the drum lid may not close.

Odd noise from the juicer:

• Check if the parts are assembled correctly. Try reassembling the parts and listen for the odd noise.
• Do not start the juicer unless there are ingredients and/or liquid in it. Operating the juicer without ingredients can cause damage to the screw. If the juicer is operated without ingredients or liquid, the noise level can increase and also can lead to damage.
• The friction noise from the juicing screw and the strainer will disappear when ingredients are inserted into the juicer.
• If the noise occurs when ingredients are inserted into the juicer, check the size of the ingredients. Do not insert anything over 1 inch in thickness. Depending on the type of ingredients, the dimensions can be smaller.
• The noise can occur if the juicer is operated on an uneven or slanted surface. Place the juicer on a horizontally flat surface when operating.

The extracted pulp is very moist:

• During the very beginning of extraction, the pulp can be more moist.
• Depending on the ingredient's condition, the extracted pulp can be affected; especially when the ingredient is not fresh, the juice can be extracted with the pulp.

During operation, the juicing bowl shakes:

The juicing screw and the strainer are set up to crush and squeeze the ingredients. It is normal for the juicing screw and the strainer to vibrate. If the ingredient contains strong fiber, the vibration from the top-set may be stronger.

During juicing, the juicer stopped:

• Check the power cord and make sure it is plugged in correctly.
• Check that all the parts are correctly assembled.
• If too many ingredients are inserted at one time, this can cause the juicer to stop.
• When the juicer stops because there are too many ingredients inserted in it, press the REVERSE - OFF - FORWARD button in this order, switching back and forth 2 to 3 times. The reverse setting will push the ingredients up, and the forward setting will pull the ingredients down.
• After using more than 30 minutes, if the juicer stops due to the overload protection, let the juicer cool for 30 minutes to 1 hour before juicing again.
• If there are hard seeds within the ingredients, remove them before juicing. Hard seeds can damage the juicer.

Layers of separation in the juice:

Depending on the density of the ingredients, the extracted juice may show layers of different juices. It is different from separation due to oxidation caused by juicing with a high-speed juicer.

The drum lid is stuck:

• After juicing, let the juicer operate for another 30 seconds to extract the remaining pulp.
• If there is too much pulp in the top-set, this can cause the drum lid to not open. In this situation, press the REVERSE-OFF-FORWARD button in the order, switching back and forth 2 to 3 times. Then place both hands on the drum lid and firmly press down while simultaneously turning the drum lid to open.
• Pour water down the feeding tube to rinse out the insides and then try opening the drum lid.

Juice dripping down the body:

If the compression silicone on the bottom of the juicing bowl is not plugged in correctly, the juice may seep out onto the juicer body. Before assembling the parts, check and make sure the compression silicone is plugged in correctly.

Is it possible to juice ingredients with tough fiber?

Ingredients like celery or ginger contain long fibers that may wrap around the juicing screw and affect the juicer's performance. When juicing fibrous ingredients, do not collect more than 1 lb. of juice. After collecting this quantity or less, clean the top-set completely before juicing again.

Discoloration of the plastic parts:

After juicing, if the juicer is not cleaned right away, the remaining pulp inside the top-set can dry up, which can make disassembling and cleaning hard. This can also affect the juicer's performance and color.

Ingredients that are rich in carotenoids such as carrots and spinach may dye plastic parts. When the parts are dyed with carotenoids, rub vegetable oil into the dyed areas and use mild detergent to clean.

Vegetable oil should only be used during clean-up for parts that are discolored. Do not use vegetable oil on the juicing screw or the strainer. If vegetable oil or oil from animal fat gets on the juicing screw or the strainer, this can affect the juicer's performance and may result in damaged parts.

The silicone pieces on the top-set can be detached to be thoroughly cleaned.

Using for purposes other than juicing:

• This juicer is designed to juice ingredients like fruits and vegetables.
• Do not use the juicer for extracting vegetable oil.
• Do not juice ingredients with high contents of vegetable/animal oil.
• If vegetable/animal oil gets on the juicing screw or the strainer, this can affect the performance of the juicer and could result in damaged parts.
