FAQs
Can I blend hot liquids in the Ninja Blender?
No, this blender is not intended for hot liquids as pressure can build up inside the sealed cup, causing leaks or potential injury.
Are the cups BPA-free?
Yes, all blending containers and lids are constructed from BPA-free materials.
How do I ensure the best results for frozen ingredients?
Add your liquid base first, followed by fresh ingredients, and finish with frozen items or ice to ensure the blades can catch the ingredients properly.
Can I buy additional blending cups?
Yes, additional compatible 700ml cups can often be purchased through authorized Ninja spare parts retailers.
Is the blender loud?
Like most high-performance blenders, there is significant noise due to the 1,000-watt motor, but the intelligent pulsing of the Auto-iQ settings helps manage sound bursts.
Troubleshooting
Blender will not start when pressed
Ensure the cup is locked securely into the base. The motor will not engage unless the tabs are properly aligned and clicked into position.
Ingredients are not blending smoothly
You may have overloaded the cup or added ingredients in the wrong order. Ensure liquids are added first and do not exceed the maximum fill line.
Motor smells like it is burning
The blender may be overworked. Ensure you are not blending thick ingredients for more than the recommended cycle time; allow the motor to cool down between uses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your Ninja Blender involves placing the motor base on a flat, dry surface and ensuring the power cord is accessible. To blend, fill the 700ml cup with ingredients—ensuring they do not exceed the 'Max Liquid' fill line—and screw on the Pro Extractor blade assembly tightly. Invert the cup onto the motor base, lining up the tabs on the cup with the slots on the base. Press down to activate, or select your desired Auto-iQ program.
For cleaning, all removable parts including the cups, lids, and blade assemblies are dishwasher safe on the top rack. It is recommended to rinse the blade assembly under warm water immediately after use to prevent residue from drying. Do not submerge the motor base in water; simply wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to keep it clean.
