Possible problem | Easy solution | |

|
|
Machine will not work when | • | The safety locking arm may not be correctly engaged |
switched ‘ON’ |
| in the vertical operating position with the locking arm |
|
| located into the two grooves on either side of the juicer |
|
| cover (page 11 step 4). |
|
|
|
Motor appears to stall when | • | Wet pulp can build up under the juicer cover if the |
juicing |
| juicing action is too vigorous. Try slower juicing action |
|
| by pushing the food pusher down more slowly (page 16 |
|
| step 4). Follow Disassembling and Cleaning instructions |
|
| and clean the filter bowl surround, the stainless steel |
|
| filter basket and the juicer cover. |
|
|
|
| • | Hard fruit and vegetables will put excess strain onto |
|
| the motor if a low speed is selected. Please refer to the |
|
| juicing guide on Page 16 to determine the correct speed |
|
| for the fruit and vegetables selected for juicing. |
|
|
|
| • | The Juice Fountain will automatically stop operating if |
|
| the motor is stalled. This is an electronic safety feature. |
|
| Either too much food is being processed at one time |
|
| or the pieces are not small enough. Try trimming food, |
|
| cutting food into smaller pieces or even size and/or |
|
| processing a smaller amount per batch. |
| • | If this occurs, the Overload Protection LED will flash red. |
| • | To continue juicing, turn the juicer OFF, unplug from the |
|
| power outlet and clear the feed chute. Once the feed |
|
| chute has been cleared, plug the power cord into the |
|
| power outlet and resume juicing. |
|
|
|
Excess pulp building up in the | • | Stop the juicing process and follow Disassembling |
stainless steel filter basket |
| 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 | • | Try a slower juicing action. Remove the stainless steel |
extracted juice |
| 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 |
|
| fiber build up (from fruit and vegetables) which could be |
|
| inhibiting the flow. |
|
|
|
Juice leaks between the rim of | • | Try a slower juicing speed and push the food pusher |
the Juicer and the juicer cover |
| down the feed chute more slowly (page 16 step 4). |
|
|
|
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 (page 16 step 4). |
