Blending Tips
• Put liquids in the jar first, unless a recipe says otherwise.
• Cut all firm fruits and vegetables into pieces no larger than
3/5 x 3/5 x 3/5-in. (1.5 x 1.5 x 1.5 cm).
• Don’t overload the jar.
• If the motor stops, turn the blender off immediately, unplug it, then let it
cool for at least 15 minutes. Remove a portion of the food and continue.
• This blender will not mash potatoes, whip egg whites or substitute dairy
toppings, mix stiff dough, or grind raw meat.
Cleaning and maintaining your blender
The auto-clean feature cleans the blender and blade assembly easily and
rapidly in complete safety. Do the following:
• Always turn the blender off and remove the plug from the outlet
before cleaning or disassembling the blender.
• Pour a little warm soapy water into the jar and mix for a few seconds
by plugging in the power cord.
• Remove the jar and rinse under running water.
• Wipe the outer surface of the blender base with a damp cloth.
• Dry all parts and reattach the blade assembly to the open end of the
jar, then place it in the blender base. Snap the jar lid on the other end
of the jar.
If you encounter any problems during use, never disassemble the blender
base yourself. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Contact an
authorized service facility for examination and repair.
Cautions
• Do not use abrasive cleaners.
• Never immerse the blender base in water for cleaning.
• Only the jar is dishwasher safe, but washing it in the
dishwasher may dull the finish over time.
• You can also wash the parts, except the blender base, in
warm, soapy water.
Caution
The blades are sharp and should not be handled.

Troubleshooting
Specifications
This marking indicates that this product should not be disposed with other household
wastes throughout the EU. To prevent possible harm to the environment or human health
from uncontrolled waste disposal, recycle it responsibly to promote the sustainable reuse of
material resources. To return your used device, please use the return and collection systems
or contact the retailer where the product was purchased. They can take this product for
environmental safe recycling.
Caution
Do not try to repair your blender yourself. Doing so invalidates
the warranty.
Problem Possible cause/solution
My blender stopped working in the middle of
blending something?
If your blender loses power, it’s possible that the motor was overheated
and the thermal fuse has activated. This turns off the blender so it can
cool itself down. Unplug the blender base and wait 15 minutes. This
should reset the fuse and you should be able to blend again.
Why is my blender leaking? Check the following:
• Is the grey sealing ring in the blade assembly?
• Is the blade assembly attached tightly enough?
•Isthejarcracked?
• Is the blade assembly cracked?
• Is the grey sealing ring cracked, broken, or rotting?
• Does the item being blended exceed the jar capacity?
Why won't my blender turn on? Check the following:
• Is the blender plugged into a working outlet?
• Is the jar positioned on the blender base correctly?
• Is the blade assembly tightened all the way?
My blender turns on, but why doesn't the blade
rotate?
Make sure the jar is seated properly on the blender base.
Why does my blender jar still smell bad after being
cleaned?
Depending on the type of ingredients used, an odor may linger within
the jar. Next time after cleaning, try storing the blender without the lid or
blade assembly attached to the open end.
