Troubleshooting Motor doesn’t start or blade doesn’t rotate • Check the blender jug and lid are securely in place. • Check that the power plug is properly inserted into the power outlet. • Check the ON | OFF button and selected function button is illuminated. Food is unevenly chopped • Use the Tamper when blending to help move the ingredients around. • Reduce the speed so the blades have more chance of grabbing the food • This can happen when too much food is being blended at one time.
Care & Cleaning Jug and Lid To avoid food drying on blades, jug and lid, follow the below steps as soon as possible after use: • Rinse most of the ingredients off the jug and lid. • Add 1L of warm water and 1–2 drops of detergent and press the CLEAN button. • Rinse the jug and lid again and/or wash separately in warm soapy water with a soft cloth or bottle brush. WARNING Oils in citrus rind can damage the material of your jug if being exposed to it for a longer period.
