Care and Cleaning ! WARNING: Always ensure that the juicer is switched off at the power outlet. Then remove the plug from the power outlet before cleaning, dissembling and storing the appliance. Do not immerse the motor base in water or any other liquid. Do not use water jet to clean the motor base. Do not clean the motor base in the dishwasher. The centre of the filter basket and feed chute contain small sharp blades to process fruit and vegetables during the juicing function. Do not touch blades when handling the filter basket or feed chute. ATTENTION: Abrasive and strong cleaner damage the surface of the plastic units and could cause discolouration. Never clean the appliance or units with abrasive and strong cleaner. For easier cleaning and to avoid discolouration: Clean as you go and avoid dried on juice or pulp residue. Immediately after each use, rinse removable parts in hot water to remove wet pulp. Otherwise discolouration of the plastic may occur with strongly coloured fruit and vegetables. Allow parts to air dry. Never use hard or sharp-edged subjects when using or cleaning the juicer or the stainless steel micro mesh filter. Do not use force when using the appliance to avoid damages. Always assemble the appliance completely before storing. The units are protected this way and can not get lost. Ensure the juicer is correctly disassembled. Refer to ´Disassembling your Design Juicer Basic`. Follow these instructions to clean all surfaces of parts that come into contact with food during normal use. Filter bowl surround, juicer cover, stainless steel micro mesh filter and pulp container are dishwasher safe (top shelf only). Use a program to be suited for glasses (low temperature). A program with high temperature might cause discolouration and distortion of the plastic units. Plastic units might tarnish being frequently cleaned in the dishwasher. IMPORTANT: Do not clean the food pusher in the dishwasher. IMPORTANT: Soak the stainless steel filter basket in hot soapy water for approximately 10 minutes immediately after juicing is completed. If pulp dehumidifies on the micro mesh filter it may clog the fine pores of the micro mesh filter thereby lessening the effectiveness of the juicer. Using the cleaning brush, hold the filter basket under running water and brush from the inside of the basket to the outer rim. Avoid touching the small sharp blades in the centre of the filter basket. After cleaning the filter basket, hold it up towards a light to ensure the fine mesh holes are not blocked. If the holes are blocked, soak the filter basket in hot water with 10% lemon juice to loosen the blocked holes. Alternatively, wash the filter basket in the dishwasher. NOTE: Alternatively you can soak the filter basket in hot water with dental prosthesis detergent. Rinse thoroughly with clear water and he provided nylon brush. IMPORTANT: Do not soak the stainless steel filter basket in bleach. Always treat the filter basket with care as it can be easily damaged. NOTE: To minimise cleaning, line the pulp container with a plastic freezer bag to collect the pulp. Pulp can then be used in other dishes (see recipes), or as compost for the garden or discarded. Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth. Ensure of no water intrusion into the inside of the motor block. Allow parts to air dry or thoroughly dry them with a clean cloth. Always assemble the appliance completely before storing (regard ´Assembling the appliance`). The units are protected this way and can not get lost. Keep all parts out of reach of children. IMPORTANT: Do not clean the nozzle in the dishwasher to avoid damage to the plastic.
