DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Disassembling the Compact Juice Extractor 1. Unplug the Compact Juice Extractor. Do not immerse the motor housing in water or spray it with water. Clean only by wiping with a damp sponge, cloth or paper towel.

• Always juice fresh fruits and vegetables as soon as possible after purchasing. The longer produce is held, the more nutrients it loses. Experiment to discover your favourite combinations. • Carrots make a great and tasty base for vegetable juices, and apples do the same for fruit juices. • Fresh juices should be consumed immediately. They lose nutrients as they sit.
