Troubleshooting
When the jug
is on the base
and the control
panel does not
light up.
1. Not plugged into electricity. Replug cord into
power outlet.
2. Electricity not turned on. Check switch is turned to
ON position.
Ingredients
are dicult to
blend
Too many solid ingredients. Add more liquid
Motor stops
suddenly
during
operation.
1. Too much food may cause motor to cut out. Turn
o. Remove some of the food and try again.
2. Long durations of operating or adding too much
hard food may trigger the protection mechanism.
Rest the blender for 20–45 minutes then restart.
3. Voltage shortage. The power voltage is
unmatched or insucient for the blender. Make
sure the power supply is correct.
4. Adding too much food takes the working current
beyond the preset maximum. Rest the blender
for 20 – 45 minutes and restart it.
Cleaning
After nishing your blending session, you can clean the jug in various ways
depending on the ingredients you have used.
• For thick or oily ingredients, add warm water to the jug with a few drops of
detergent and blend for 30 seconds. Remove the jug and rinse with clean
water. Wipe the main unit with a wet or dry cloth.
• Rinse the jug and lid directly under the tap and use a clean cloth to wipe up
the residual water.
• Always place jug in upright position when leaving to dry. Try not to have
liquid contacting the underside of the drive shaft.

Vacuum Blending
Vacuum blenders have been developed for people who are looking
to maximize nutrition and reduce spoilage. A characteristic of a normal
household blender is that the high speed blades immediately whisk lots of air
into whatever ingredients you are blending. The process of blending smashes
ingredients into tiny particles, giving the biggest possible surface area of
contact between your food and oxygen.
Practically every molecule of the ingredients in a traditional blender is
swimming in an oxygen rich bath, and your blended food immediately starts
to lose its nutritional value and avours as a result. This is why we always
recommend that a fresh smoothie is best consumed immediately.
A Vacuum Blender is a fantastic solution to this problem. The rst thing you
will notice about a smoothie made in a vacuum blender will be the colour.
Think about how quickly the brown discoloration occurs when you peel a
carrot for example. This is exactly what happens when you blend and these
millions of parts of surface area are exposed to the air. The colour of the
blended ingredients will start to darken and deteriorate with exposure to
oxygen.
With a Vacuum Blender, with the touch of a button, the air is removed from
the blending jug, reducing the exposure to oxygen and creating a vibrant
coloured smoothie. Secondly, the air in a normal blender will create lots of
bubbles or froth. When using a Vacuum Blender, this froth is avoided and
results in a more full-bodied smoothie which tastes rich and fresh.
Use the Vacuum Function with the storage accessories to remove air from
dips, sauces, baby food, leftover wine and more to prolong freshness.
