Allow the motor to cool down for 45 minutes and try to use the blender again. If it still does not work, please contact the manufacturer for assistance.

There is a strange smell during blending| This is normal and fades away with time. The unit has a powerful motor which is brand new and factory installed. As you are the first user of the unit, you will receive a slight odour coming from the motor. However, with regular usage the odour will disappear.
Can I blend frozen fruits?| You can use partially frozen fruits. This means that they need to be removed from the freezer an hour or more before blending them. If using frozen food or ice cubes, please ensure you add a liquid to the mix to ensure the blender can blend efficiently.
