TROUBLESHOOTING
IF YOUR BLENDER MALFUNCTIONS OR FAILS TO OPERATE
• Is the Blender plugged into a grounded
electrical outlet?
Plug the Blender into a grounded electrical
outlet.
• Is the fuse in the circuit to the Blender in
working order?
If you have a circuit breaker box, make sure
the circuit is closed. Try unplugging the
Blender, then plug it back into a grounded
electrical outlet.
• If Blender stops while blending:
The Blender becomes overloaded or
jammed when blending heavy ingredients.
It will automatically shut off to prevent
damage to the motor. Unplug the power
cord. Remove the Blender Jar from the
base and use a spatula to rearrange
ingredients in the Blender Jar.
If it's overloaded, divide contents into
smaller batches. For certain recipes, adding
liquid to the Blender Jar may also reduce
the load on the Blender.

spatula to rearrange ingredients in the
Blender Jar.
