FAQs
What is the warranty period for the Kuvings Auto 8?
The Kuvings Auto 8 comes with an extensive 15-year warranty on the motor and a 5-year warranty on all other parts.
Can I juice citrus fruits with the peel on?
While the juicer can handle whole fruits, it is generally recommended to peel citrus fruits like oranges and grapefruits to avoid a bitter taste from the pith and rind.
How do I make almond milk with this juicer?
Soak raw almonds overnight, then drain and rinse them. Process the soaked almonds with fresh water through the juicer, ideally using a dedicated screen or attachment for nut milks if provided, to create smooth almond milk.
Is it safe to put whole fruits and vegetables in the juicer?
Yes, the Auto 8 model is specifically designed to accept whole fruits and vegetables, significantly reducing preparation time. However, always ensure seeds from stone fruits like peaches or cherries are removed.
What are the dimensions and weight of the juicer?
The juicer measures approximately 44.5 cm (H) x 22.5 cm (W) x 18.4 cm (D) and weighs 5.3 kg.
Can this juicer make ice cream?
Yes, the Kuvings Auto 8 can be used to make dairy-free ice cream and sorbets, typically requiring a specific attachment (often sold separately or included) for frozen desserts.
What should I do if the juicer stops working suddenly?
Check if the unit has overheated and allow it to cool down. Ensure all safety interlocks are engaged correctly. If the issue persists, consult the troubleshooting section or contact customer support.
Troubleshooting
Juicer not turning on.
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Check that all parts are correctly assembled and locked into place, as safety mechanisms may prevent operation if not properly aligned.
Juice is too pulpy or foamy.
Ensure the juice strainer/screen is clean and free of blockages. For softer fruits, consider alternating with harder produce or adding a small amount of water. Ensure the juice cap is closed during juicing and only opened to dispense.
Motor seems to be struggling or overheating.
Avoid overloading the juicer. Cut larger or harder ingredients into manageable sizes. Ensure no tough fibers or seeds are accidentally inserted that could jam the mechanism. Allow the motor to rest if it feels hot.
Difficulty in cleaning certain parts.
Clean parts immediately after use to prevent food residue from hardening. Use the provided cleaning brush to scrub the juicing screen effectively. For stubborn residue, soaking parts in warm soapy water for a short period can help.
Leaking from the juicing bowl.
Verify that the juicing bowl, screen, and lid are correctly assembled and securely sealed. Ensure the pulp container and juice container are properly positioned to receive the outputs.
