Troubleshooting
Unit does not turn on
Check that the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Ensure the cup and mixing spindle are correctly assembled and locked in place.
Motor seems weak or stops during operation
Ensure the cup is not overfilled beyond the maximum line. Check that the ingredients are not too solid or frozen, which could strain the motor. Try reducing the amount of ingredients or using slightly softer ingredients.
Uneven blending or chunks in the drink
Ensure ingredients are properly layered, with liquids at the bottom. Use the two-speed settings effectively, starting slow and increasing to high. Allow the machine to run for a sufficient time to achieve the desired consistency.
Excessive noise during operation
Ensure the cup and spindle are securely attached. Check for any foreign objects that may have fallen into the mixing area. If the noise persists and seems unusual, discontinue use and contact customer support.
