TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
WARNING : To reduce the risk of shock and unintended operation, turn the
power off and unplug the unit before troubleshooting
Unit doesn’t turn on
Make sure unit is plugged in.
-
Place cup on base and rotate it clockwise until it clicks into place.
Unit doesn’t turn off -
Remove the cup from the base by rotating it anti-clockwise and lifting it. Unplug the power cord from the socket.
Lid/blade assembly hard to assemble -
Place the cup on a level surface with the lid or blade assembly on the top of the cup and align the threads so that the lid/blades sit flat on the cup. Twist clockwise so that the lid/blades evenly align to the cup until you have a tight seal.
Doesn’t mix well; ingredients get stuck -
Using the pre-set programs is the easiest way to achieve great results. The pulses and pauses allow the ingredients to settle toward the blade assembly. If ingredients are routinely getting stuck, adding some liquid will usually help.
-
When filling the cup, start with fresh fruit or veggies, then leafy greens or herbs. Next, add liquids or yogurt, then seeds, powders, or nut butter. Finally, add ice or frozen ingredients.
Motor base won’t stick to worktop or tabletop -
Make sure surface and suction feet are wiped clean. Suction feet will only stick to smooth surfaces.
-
Suction feet will not stick on some surfaces such as wood, tile, and non-polished finishes.
-
DO NOT attempt to use the unit when the motor base is stuck to a surface that is not secure (cutting board, platter, plates, etc.).
-
Unit is difficult to remove from worktop for storage
-
Place your hands underneath both sides of the motor base and gently pull the unit up and toward you.
