Use caution when cleaning the filter bowl with the juicer blade assembled. Wipe 
exterior with a damp cloth, and only rinse the interior.  Disassemble and clean 
following the instructions below. 

 

1.  Switch motor base to “0” (OFF) and unplug from the electrical outlet. 

2.  Disassemble the juicer.  Note:  The filter bowl may have liquid remaining in the 

bottom. With the juicer outlet spout in the closed position, carefully remove the 
filter bowl and juicer blade. Empty liquid contents and juicer blade into the sink.  
CAUTION:  There are many small, sharp blades on the juicer blade.  To reduce 
the risk of injury, use extreme care when removing and handling the juicer 
blade. 

3.  Wash all loose parts, except the motor base in warm, soapy water, rinse 

thoroughly and dry.  All parts except the motor base can be washed in the top 
rack of the dishwasher.  The motor base can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.  
CAUTION:  Never put the motor base in water or other liquid as damage will 
occur.   

4.  Pay particular attention to properly cleaning the juicer blade which is constructed 

of a very fine, filter mesh that must be clean and open for proper operation and 
juicing extraction.  If necessary, clean the inside of the juicer blade with a nylon 
brush.  Do not use a metal brush.  Hold the juicer blade up to the light to ensure 
the mesh is clean and open.  CAUTION:  To reduce the risk of injury, do not use 
the appliance if the juicer blade exhibits excessive wear or damage.  Inspect the 
juicer blade after each cleaning. 

Note:  Some fruits and vegetables can stain the plastic parts.  To reduce the chance 
of staining, rinse and clean all parts immediately after juicing.  If staining occurs, 
soak parts in water containing 10% lemon juice.  Never soak the parts in bleach or 
other harsh chemicals. 

 
 

1.  Switch the motor base to “0” (OFF) and unplug from the electrical outlet. 

2.  Wipe the motor base, powers, and cord with a damp cloth or sponge. To remove 

stubborn spots, use a mild, non-abrasive cleanser. 

3.  To clean the blending jar, disassemble all parts.  Carefully wash all parts except 

the motor base in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. All parts 
except the motor base can be washed in the top rack of the dishwasher. 

4.  Store the blending jar with the lid off to prevent odor.
