For tougher ingredients, or in cases when all the ingredients are not mixing right away, use the pulse function by pressing down on the container a few times and then try processing again. Repeat this until all the ingredients are mixing together properly. Before First Use Check that all the parts are complete and that the unit is not damaged. Makes sure to wash the blades attachment(s), containers and lids thoroughly before first use with detergent and warm water. Refer to the cleaning instructions in this manual. Main Unit Instructions: For 1L Juicing Jar and 600ml To Go Container The 1L Juicing Jar is open on both ends so it can be used for vacuum (and non-vacuum) processing as well as for vacuum (and non-vacuum) storage. On the other hand, the 600ml To Go Container is open on one end only so it can only be used for non-vacuum processing as well as vacuum (and non-vacuum) storage. Instructions for Vacuum (and Non-Vacuum) Processing with 1L Juicing Jar: 1. Place the Motor Base on a flat surface and make sure the unit is NOT plugged into the power source (Figure 1). 2. Attach the Juicing Jar to the Quad Blade Blending Attachment by holding it with one hand and twisting the blade attachment into place by turning it counter-clockwise. Make sure it is tightly fastened to avoid any liquid leakage (Figure 1). 3. Fill the jar with your favourite ingredients and make sure not to overfill it. There should be room for the ingredients to be processed thoroughly without making contact with the vacuum pump lid. The processed liquid should not exceed 1L. 4. Next, twist the Vacuum Pump onto the jar by turning it clockwise until it is tightly fastened onto the jar (Figure 1). Figure 9 Figure 10 NOTE: Using the pulse function should break up any bigger ingredient pieces or dislodge any ingredients that may get stuck. The pulse function is not meant to be used continuously for a prolonged time. It is meant to be used for a second or two at a time. 8. When the ingredients are processed thoroughly, remove the To Go Container from the Motor Base by holding on to the base with one hand and turning it in a counter-clockwise direction with the other, then lift (Figure 11). Doing this will move the arrow on the blade attachment, from being aligned with the marking, back to being aligned with the OFF/PULSE marking on the Motor Base. 9. Unplug the unit from the power source and enjoy your juice/smoothie. 10. Your juice/smoothie can be stored in vacuum-like conditions and consumed on the go with the To Go Container. To do this, remove the blade attachment and replace it with the Multifunction Lid. Then, use the Vacuum Pump on the Multifunction Lid to remove oxygen and create vacuum-like storage conditions (Figure 12). NOTE: Always take special care when the Vacuum Pump is attached to the Juicing Jar as liquids should not come into contact with the Vacuum Pump. This is why it is important not to overfill the jar. Never shake the jar while the Vacuum Pump is attached as any liquid coming into contact with the inside of the Vacuum Pump can affect its ability to remove oxygen and create vacuum-like conditions. If the Vacuum Pump does come into contact with liquid. Remove it from the unit, then rinse and dry it thoroughly before using it again. 5. Hold the jar in place with one hand and use your other hand to press down the Vacuum Pump repeatedly (Figure 2). Press the Vacuum Pump 5 times or more, as needed. You will feel it getting harder to press down as more and more oxygen is being removed (Figure 2). 6. Once you are done pumping oxygen out of the jar, the last time you press the Vacuum Pump down, hold it down and twist the top of the Vacuum Pump clockwise until the grooves on the top and bottom part of the Vacuum Pump align. Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 11 Figure

8 7. Plug in the power cord into the power source (Figure 3). 8. Hold the Motor Base with one hand and the jar, with blade attachment and Vacuum Pump, with the other. Then, align the arrow on the Motor Base (located above the OFF/PULSE marking) with the arrow on the blade attachment and place the jar, with blade attachment and Vacuum Pump, into the Motor Base (Figure 3). 9. Press down and turn clockwise to lock into place (Figure 4). This will move the arrow on the blade attachment, from aligning to the OFF/PULSE marking, to aligning with the marking on the Motor Base. Let the unit process the ingredients for up to 1 minute*. *NOTE: If the desired results are not achieved after 1 minute of processing, repeat steps 8 and 9 until the desired results are achieved with brief breaks in between each 1-minute continuous run. 10. For tougher ingredients, or in cases when all the ingredients are not mixing right away, use the pulse function by pressing down on the jar a few times to get the blades moving and then try processing again. Repeat this until all the ingredients are mixing together evenly. NOTE: Using the pulse function should break up any bigger ingredient pieces or dislodge any ingredients that may get stuck. The pulse function is not meant to be used continuously for a prolonged time. It is meant to be used for a second or two at a time. 15. To consume your juice on the go, pour the contents from the 1L Juicing Jar into the 600ml To Go Container. Seal the container with the Multifunction Lid, place the Vacuum Pump on the Multifunction Lid and use it as instructed in steps 5 and 6 to remove oxygen and create vacuum-like conditions (Figure 7). Figure 7 Figure 3 Figure When the ingredients are processed thoroughly, remove the jar from the Motor Base by holding on to the base with one hand and turning it in a counter-clockwise direction with the other, then lift (Figure 5). Doing this will move the arrow on the blade attachment, from being aligned with the marking, back to being aligned with the OFF/PULSE marking on the Motor Base. 12. Unplug the unit from the power source and enjoy your delicious juice. 13. Any leftovers can be stored in the 1L Juicing Jar. To do this, remove the vacuum pump and replace it with the plain Flat Lid. Make sure it is tightly fastened to avoid any liquid leakage (Figure 5). 14. Flip the jar upside down, then remove the blade attachment and replace it with the Multifunction Lid. After this is done, the Vacuum Pump can be used on the Multifunction Lid to remove oxygen and create optimal vacuum-like storage conditions (Figure 6) NOTE: If you wish to process your ingredients in the 1L Juicing Jar without vacuum-like conditions (i.e. removing oxygen) follow the same steps outlined above, but instead of pumping the air out with the Vacuum Pump, either use an already closed Vacuum Pump as a lid or use the Multifunction or Flat Lids instead to seal the top of the jar during the blending process. Instructions for Non-Vacuum Processing with 600ml To Go Container: 1. Place the Motor Base on a flat surface and make sure the unit is NOT plugged into the power source (Figure 8). 2. Fill the To Go Container with your favourite ingredients and make sure not to overfill it. There should be room for the ingredients to be processed thoroughly. The processed liquid should not exceed 600ml. 3. Attach the Quad Blade Blending Attachment to the To Go Container by holding the container with one hand and twisting the blade attachment into place by turning it clockwise. Make sure it is tightly fastened to avoid any liquid leakage (Figure 8). Figure 5 Figure Figure 8
