Sunbeam JE4700 manual Operating your Sunbeam Pure Juice, Handy Juicing Hints

Operating your Sunbeam Pure Juice.

Note: The Pure Juice should be completely assembled before use.

1.Ensure the switch on the Pure Juice is in the ‘Off’ position and plug the cord into a 230- 240V power outlet and turn the power on.

2.Clean fruits and vegetables thoroughly and remove any stems, large pits, stones and seeds. All fruits and vegetables should be cut into pieces to fit into Lid/Feed Tube.

3.Ensure that the Pure Juice has been assembled correctly, making sure that the stainless steel grating and filtering basket revolves properly before placing the ingredients in the Pure Juice. Refer to page 4 for assembly instructions.

4.Switch the Pure Juice to the ‘On’ position to start juicing. Place food into the Lid/Feed Tube slowly and steadily, using the Food Pusher.

Note: Do not force the food into the grating and filtering basket as this can cause basket to shift and result in plastic shavings getting into the juice.

5.The Juice from the fruits or vegetables will flow directly into the glass or jug and the pulp will be separated and collected in the Pulp container.

Important: If juicing large amounts of fruits or vegetables, the pulp container will be filled, switch Pure Juice to the ‘Off’ position, unplug cord, and allow grating and filtering basket to stop completely. Empty Pulp container and re- position.

6.When juicing is complete ensure that the Pure Juice is switched ‘Off’ and unplugged from the power outlet.

Handy Juicing Hints.

•Cut fruit and vegetables into suitable sizes to fit the Feed Tube.

•Remove stones and hard seeds from fruits such as peaches, plums and apricots.

•Remove skin from citrus fruits and other thick- skinned fruits eg. watermelon.

•Leafy vegetables should be rolled up tightly into compact balls or rolls.

•Apricots, bananas, peaches, pears, melons and strawberries are soft-textured fruits. The juice extracted from these fruits is very thick and is known as nectar. It is best to alternate processing of these juices with thinner juices, such as carrots, apples, etc. Process soft- textured fruits first, followed by firmer fruits and vegetables, in order to ensure maximum removal of thick juice.

•Allow the motor to run for approximately 1 to 2 seconds after you have finished feeding fruit and vegetables into the Feed Tube. This allows the maximum amount of juice to be extracted.

•Add a few teaspoons of lemon juice to your juice container before juicing to keep juices from discolouring.

•Serve juices immediately for maximum vitamin retention. Store juice in the refrigerator, covered. Do not store for more than 48 hours, unless canning or freezing.

•Some pulp remaining in juice is normal. It increases the juice’s flavour and nutritive value.

•The season, age and ripeness of the fruit will have an effect on the amount of juice extracted.
