Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Blender does not turn on. | Not plugged in; cup/pitcher not properly assembled or seated. | Ensure the unit is plugged into a working outlet. Make sure the cup or pitcher is twisted securely onto the motor base and locked into place. |
