CARE AND CLEANING cont'd
•
Discoloration of the plastic may occur
with strongly colored fruit and vegetables.
To help prevent this, wash parts
immediately after use.
•
If discoloration does occur, the plastic
parts can be soaked in 10% lemon juice
and water or they can be cleaned with a
non abrasive cleaner.
To assist with cleaning 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
Juice Fountain.
For your convenience a
nylon cleaning brush has
been included with your
Juice Fountain.

Hint:
To minimize washing up place a freezer bag
(or plastic grocery bag) into the pulp
container to collect the pulp. When juicing is
completed simply place the bag containing
the pulp into a bin. (Refer page 20 for ideas
on using the pulp).
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
Possible Problem
Easy Solution
Machine will not work
The safety locking arm may not be correctly
when switched "ON"
engaged in the vertical operating position with the
locking arm located into the two grooves on either
side of the juice cover (see picture on page 9 step 4).
Motor appears to stall
Wet pulp can build up under the cover if the juicing
when juicing
action is too vigorous. Try slower juicing action by
pushing the food pusher down more slowly (refer
page 12, step 4). Clean the filter bowl surround, the
stainless steel filter and the juicer cover. Select HIGH
speed instead of the LOW speed setting.
Excess pulp building
Stop the juicing process. Remove the juicer cover,
up in the micro mesh
scrape off pulp. Re-assemble and begin juicing
filter basket
again. Try alternating (soft and hard) vegetable
and fruit varieties.
Pulp too wet and
Try a slower juicing action. Remove stainless steel
reduced extracted juice
mesh filter basket and thoroughly clean mesh walls
with a fine 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 unblock the holes or wash in the dishwasher.
This will remove excess fiber build up (from fruit or
vegetables) which could be inhibiting the juice flow.
Juice leaks between
Try a slower juicing action by pushing the food
the rim of the Juicer
pusher down more slowly (refer page 12 step 4).

Fruit and vegetables with a high water content (tomatoes
and watermelon) should be juiced on low speed.
Juice sprays out
Try a slower juicing action by pushing the food
from the bowl
pusher down more slowly (refer page 12 step 4).
