switch on the appliance while the cup and the blade subassembly are
assembled on the motor base securely. If the appliance is correctly assembled,
the built-in safety lock will be unlocked.
IMPORTANT: In the base of each blade’s collar, there is a silicone gasket seal
that creates an airtight fit with the jars. After dishwashing and before each use,
always check to make sure the gasket is properly in place, as the heat from
some dishwashers may cause the gasket to become loose.

HOW TO CLEAN
CAUTION: Make Sure that the motor base is unplugged from the power
source before inserting or removing any attachment and before cleaning.
NOTICE: Wait until the blender has cooled down sufficiently before cleaning it.
CAUTION: DO NOT immerse the motor base into water or any liquid, or place
into a dishwasher.
1. Separate and remove all parts from each other.
2. Clean the motor base with a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry.

3. Place jars in the dishwasher. Place the lids and attachments on the top rack.
Use caution when handling the blade assemblies as the blades are very
sharp.
4. Whenever possible, rinse parts immediately after processing to make
clean-up easier.
5. Store the product in a cool, dry place.
NOTE:
You may also wash the jars by filling the jar to the max fill line with warm
water, adding a drop of dish washing detergent, placing the blade assembly
on the jar and pulsing a few times. Do not fill the jar more than the max fill
line with water because it will overflow. Once clean, remove the jar from the
motor base. Rinse the jar, attachment and lid under running water. Allow all
the parts to dry before storing.
Do not use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive liquids
such as petrol, alcohol or acetone to clean the appliance
All detachable accessories can be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Tips:
Use a small brush (not included) to remove particles of food lodged
underneath the blades.
If some leftover particles dry onto the inside of the jar, fill the cup about 2/3
full with warm water and attach the blade subassembly. Place the jar and
blade subassembly onto the motor base and operate the appliance for
about 20-30 seconds to help loosen the stuck ingredients. Repeat the
above step but use clean tap water. Empty the blender and dry thoroughly.
CAUTION: Do not try attempt to remove blades from the blade
subassembly for cleaning.

cutting blades.

3. Allow the appliance to cool for approximately 30 minutes.
4. Re-install the jar onto the base and plug the appliance into the electric

Troubleshooting Guide
PROBLEMS
POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS
Motor doesn’t start or
attachment doesn’t rotate.
For the jars, make sure that the tabs are seated
in the slots and turned clockwise
Food is unevenly
chopped.
Either you are chopping too much food at once,
or you are not pulsing properly. Reduce the
amount of food in the jar.
Food is too finely chopped
or too watery
The food has been over processed. Use short
operation for best results.
You can not achieve snow
from ice cubes.
For best result use ice directly from the freezer.
Try short operation rather than long operation.
Make sure the jar is completely dry before
adding ice.
Jar is leaking
Make sure that your lid or blade assembly is
properly assembled to the jar. Leaking may
occur if it is misaligned when twisted onto the
jar. Turn the lid tightly clockwise.
Unit doesn’t turn on
Make sure the unit is plugged in.
Make sure the blade assembly is properly
assembled to the jar and that it’s not misaligned
Unit doesn’t turn off
Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet
and call customer service for support
Doesn’t mix well
Pulse ingredients for best results. Press down
on the jar in short intervals for even blending
and chopping. For frozen ingredients, pulse in
short intervals of 2-5 seconds and repeat.

Lid/blade assembly will not
properly align to the jar
Set the jar on a level surface. Place the lid or
blade assembly on top of the jar and align the
threads so that the lid/blades sit flat on the jar.
Twist clockwise so that the lid/blades evenly
align to the jar until you have a tight seal.
