TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

WARNING : To reduce the risk of shock and unintended operation, turn power off and unplug unit before troubleshooting?

Unit doesn’t turn on

Make sure unit is plugged in.
Display will light up with usable programs once connected to power. Jug and lid must be engaged to select a program.

Lid is stuck on jug

The lid is removed by rotating from the handle anti-clockwise and then lifting up.

My jug will not assemble to the base.
Make sure the Ninja® logo is facing forwards before placing the jug directly onto the blender base. If the jug is still not fully attached, rotate the metal coupling under the jug to help align it to the base.

Cannot change time or temperature settings on Auto-iQ programs.

All programs were developed by culinary experts to deliver the perfect balance of heating, stirring, and blending patterns to give perfect results, so you do not have to set the time or temperature.
To select a speciﬁc temperature, use the Manual COOK setting instead of an Auto-iQ program.

Program has paused.
If the lid was removed while running a program or while in a Manual mode, the cooking or blending function will pause. Replace the lid and push the program button again to continue from where the time left off.

Why does the blender sometimes count up and other times count down?
Auto-iQ programs are timed to ﬁnish on their own when they are complete, so the clock counts down until the program has ﬁnished. When using Manual modes, the clock will count up from 0 until the auto shutoff time is reached or the button for the current setting is pressed again.

Jug still has residue after running the CLEAN program.
Try running the CLEAN program a second time. You may also hand-wash the jug using the included cleaning brush, which is speciﬁcally designed to clean those hard-to-reach areas.

The control panel returns to home display.
The control panel is designed to return to standby mode when left inactive for 3 minutes. If you have taken longer than 3 minutes to choose a function, or if the program has ﬁnished, the unit will return to standby mode.

Why does the unit beep during Auto-iQ Programs?
We’ve incorporated a stir alert within all Auto-iQ programs to let you know the unit is about to stir. The alert is 3 beeps followed by a 2-second pause before each stir.
