Troubleshooting
Blender is not turning on.
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check that all components (bowl, blade, lid) are correctly assembled and locked into place on the motor base. The blender has a safety interlock that prevents operation if not assembled correctly.
Food is not blending smoothly or blades are stuck.
Ensure you have not overfilled the bowl; adhere to the 500ml capacity. Cut ingredients into smaller, consistent pieces before blending. If the food is too thick, add a small amount of liquid (water, breast milk, formula) to aid the blending process. Release the power button, stir the contents, and try again.
Blender moves or vibrates excessively during operation.
Ensure the blender is placed on a flat, stable, and dry countertop. Verify that the non-slip silicone base is clean and free of debris, as this can affect its grip. Do not hold the blender down with excessive force during operation, let the non-slip base do its job.
The blender is leaking during use.
Check that the blade assembly is correctly seated and tightened onto the blending bowl. Ensure the lid is firmly and correctly placed on the bowl. Avoid overfilling past the maximum fill line.
