Troubleshooting
Blender does not turn on
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check that the blender jar is properly seated on the motor base.
Motor stops during blending
The motor may have overheated. Unplug the blender and allow it to cool down for at least 15-20 minutes before resuming. Reduce the load in the jar or blend in smaller batches.
Ingredients are not blending smoothly
Ensure the correct speed setting is used for the ingredients. For tough ingredients, start on a lower speed and gradually increase. Do not overfill the jar. Ensure the lid is securely in place.
Leaking from the jar
Check that the lid is firmly sealed. Ensure the blade assembly is properly tightened (if applicable). Inspect the jar and lid for any cracks or damage.
