The Royal Prestige® Juice Extractor is a household appliance designed for efficient juice extraction from various fruits and vegetables using a patented slow-speed juicing technology. This method aims to preserve the quality and nutritional value of the juice.
Function Description:
The primary function of the Royal Prestige® Juice Extractor is to extract juice from ingredients by slowly pressing them, rather than using high-speed blades. This process minimizes oxidation and helps produce a higher quality juice. The device is capable of handling a variety of ingredients, including soft fruits, vegetables, hard fruits, and fibrous leafy greens. It features a "FORWARD" setting for normal operation, which pulls ingredients down and presses them, and a "REVERSE" setting to dislodge jammed ingredients. The cap on the juice spout allows for mixing different juices, preventing drips, and quick rinsing between different juice preparations.

Usage Features:
- Assembly: The device consists of several parts that need to be assembled correctly for operation. This includes aligning red dots on the strainer, rotation wiper, bowl, and hopper, and ensuring the Ultrasqueezer is locked into place. The top-set then aligns with the base using arrow symbols.
- Ingredient Preparation: For optimal extraction, ingredients should be prepared by cutting them to size, removing hard seeds or pits, and thawing frozen fruits completely. Hard vegetables and high-fiber foods should be cut to size, and fibrous leafy vegetables should have their stems cut. Soft fruits and vegetables should also be cut to size.
- Operation: After plugging in the power cord, the "FORWARD" button initiates juicing. The "REVERSE" button is used to dislodge ingredients if they become jammed. It is crucial not to operate the machine without ingredients or to insert fingers or other objects into the hopper. The provided pusher should be used when necessary.
- Juice Yield and Pulp Control: The juice yield can vary depending on the ingredient and juicing speed. To reduce the amount of fine pulp, frequent cleaning of the top-set and extraction of pulp are recommended. A mesh strainer can be used to collect unwanted pulp.
- Mixing and Rinsing: The cap can be closed to create mixed juices or to stop juice from dripping. For quick rinsing between different juices, a glass of water can be run through the extractor with the cap closed. However, the cap should be left open when juicing ingredients that produce excessive foam (e.g., apples, celery) to prevent overflow.
- Safety Precautions: The manual emphasizes not immersing the motor base in water, avoiding contact with moving parts, and ensuring the hopper is securely closed before operation. It also warns against using the appliance with a damaged cord or plug.
Maintenance Features:
- Immediate Cleaning: The Juice Extractor should be cleaned immediately after each use to prevent residue from drying and making disassembly difficult, which can also affect performance.
- Disassembly for Cleaning: To clean, switch off and unplug the unit, then turn the hopper counter-clockwise to open. The top-set (Ultrasqueezer, strainer, and rotation wiper) can then be removed from the bowl.
- Detailed Cleaning: The Ultrasqueezer should be thoroughly cleaned, especially its bottom crevice, to prevent damage and maintain balance with the strainer. The provided cleaning brush is useful for hard-to-reach areas.
- Silicone Parts Cleaning: Silicone brushes can be pulled out from the rotation wiper for cleaning and reinserted with the tail pointing down. The silicone ring from the strainer should be removed, cleaned, and pushed back in with the smaller surface facing down. The cap can be removed from the juice spout for cleaning and reattached.
- Rotating Brush: A rotating brush is included to facilitate quick and easy cleaning of the strainer. The strainer is inserted into the rotating brush until a click is heard, then rotated under running water in opposite directions for thorough cleaning.
- Discoloration: Plastic parts may discolor over time, especially when juicing ingredients rich in carotenoids (like carrots or spinach). This can be addressed by rubbing vegetable oil on the dyed areas and using mild detergent.
- Storage: After cleaning, all parts should be thoroughly dried before storing. When moving the appliance, it should always be lifted by the base or handle, not the hopper.
