Trouble shooting guide
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 (page 8 step 5).
Motor appears to stall when juicing
1.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 (page 10 step 4). Follow Disassembling and Cleaning instructions and clean the filter bowl surround, the juice disc and the juicer cover.
2.The ikon™ Froojie™ Juice Fountain® will automatically stop operating if the motor is stalled for more than 10 seconds. Either too much food is being processed at one time or the pieces are not small enough. Try trimming the food or cutting into smaller pieces of even size and processing
a smaller amount per batch. To continue juicing, reset the ikon™ Froojie™ Juice Fountain® by pressing the ‘On/Off’ switch on the control panel to ‘Off’ then turn the appliance back on by pressing ‘On/Off’ switch to ‘On’.
3.Hard fruits and vegetables will put excess strain onto the motor if a low speed is selected. Please refer to the juicing guide on Page 9 to determine the correct speed for the fruits 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) vegetable and fruit varieties.
Pulp too wet and reduced extracted juice
Try a slower juicing action.
Remove juice disc and thoroughly clean mesh walls with a cleaning brush. Rinse the juice disc 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 fibre build up (from fruit or vegetables) which could be inhibiting the juice 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 (page 10, step 6).
Juice sprays out from spout
Use juice jug and lid provided, or if juicing into a glass use the custom designed juice nozzle.
Try using fruits with more water content to help flush through the contents. Additionally, try a slower juicing action by feeding one piece in at a time and by pushing the food pusher down more slowly.
When using the Froojie™ Extractor, the filter bowl surround becomes full and clogs its spout.
