It's easier to replace the blade unit in the jug by holding the jug upright, and putting the
32
blade unit up into the bottom of the jug. This prevents the seal from falling out.
When the blade unit is in place, it's easier to the jug upside down to tighten the blade
33
unit – it's a bayonet-type fitting, and it tightens anti-clockwise.
34 Turn the jug the right way up.
Screw the tap lever back into the tap – about 2½ turns of the retaining ring. Don't
35
overtighten it. If you do, our spares department will be delighted to sell you a new tap.
They love people who break things.
36 To replace the tap, hold it upright, put it into the hole in the jug base, then turn it 2
complete turns clockwise – no more.
If the tap lock comes loose, turn the jug and base upside down, hold the tap lock flat side
down, with the pip towards the inside, then slide it back into the jug base.
Staining
37 Carotenoids, which are found in many other vegetables as well as carrots, can cause
severe staining. This staining may be impossible to remove. Don't worry about it, it won't
affect the operation of the smoothie maker.
38 If you want to try, then you could try soaking the stained parts overnight in one of the
following:
a) quarter of a cup of household bleach in a sink full of warm water
b) a mixture of 1 part white vinegar to two parts warm water
c) half a small packet of baking soda in enough warm water to cover the parts
Don't try to mix these methods. You may make a mess, you may cause nasty eye-
Caution
watering, breath-catching fumes, and you may harm the parts you're trying to clean.
