FAQs
Can this blender crush ice?
Yes, the Salter Juice and Blend Blender's stainless steel blades can crush ice. For best results and to prevent motor strain, use small quantities of ice or add liquid to the mixture.
Are the blending jug and portable bottle dishwasher safe?
Info needed: Please consult the product manual for specific dishwasher safety instructions. Generally, plastic components are often top-rack dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended for longevity.
How do I clean the blade assembly safely?
Always handle the blade assembly with extreme caution due to its sharp edges. It's best to detach it from the jug/bottle and wash it carefully with warm, soapy water using a brush to clean around the blades. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
What is the capacity of the blending jug and pulp container?
The blender comes with a 1-litre plastic blending jug and a 1.2-litre pulp container for juicing.
Can I make hot soups in this blender?
This blender is generally not recommended for blending hot liquids directly due to potential pressure buildup and material limitations of the plastic components. Always allow hot liquids to cool to a warm temperature before blending.
What kind of materials are the main components made of?
The main blending jug and portable bottle are made of plastic, and the blades are made of durable stainless steel.
Troubleshooting
Blender won't turn on.
Ensure the blender is properly plugged into a functional power outlet. Check that the blending jug or portable bottle is correctly assembled and securely locked onto the motor base, as safety features often prevent operation if not assembled correctly.
Ingredients are not blending smoothly or are stuck.
Add more liquid to the mixture. Stop the blender, remove the jug, and gently shake it or use a spatula to push ingredients closer to the blades. Ensure ingredients are cut into smaller, more uniform pieces. Try increasing the speed setting if available.
Liquid is leaking from the bottom of the jug.
Turn off and unplug the blender immediately. Check that the blade assembly is tightly screwed onto the bottom of the blending jug or portable bottle. Ensure the sealing ring (gasket) is correctly seated and free from damage or displacement. Do not overfill the jug beyond the maximum fill line.

Care and Maintenance
- Cleaning After Each Use: Disassemble the removable parts immediately after use. Wash the blending jug, portable bottle, lids, and blade assembly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn residues, soak briefly before scrubbing.
- Blade Care: Always handle the stainless steel blades with extreme caution as they are very sharp. Use a brush to clean around them safely.
