7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Sangcon Blender, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Blender does not start. | Not plugged in; cup not properly locked onto base. | Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into an outlet. Twist the cup clockwise until it clicks and locks into place. |
| Blender stops during operation. | Overheating due to prolonged use or blending overly dense ingredients. | Unplug the blender and allow the motor to cool down for at least 15 minutes. Reduce ingredient load or add more liquid. The advanced cooling system helps prevent this, but extreme conditions can still trigger thermal protection. |
| Leakage from the cup. | Blade assembly not tightened properly; T-shaped seal not seated correctly or damaged. | Ensure the blade assembly is tightly screwed onto the cup. Check the T-shaped seal for proper placement and any signs of damage. Replace if necessary. |
| Ingredients not blending smoothly. | Too many ingredients; not enough liquid; ingredients too large. | Reduce the amount of ingredients. Add more liquid. Cut ingredients into smaller pieces. Blend in pulses to break down larger chunks. |
