Troubleshooting Guide
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Blender shows E2 error. | Lid not properly locked or aligned; jar not fully secured. | Ensure the lid is tightly closed and aligned. Verify the jar is securely mounted on the base. |
| Blender shows E3 error / Overheating / Shuts down suddenly. | Continuous use for extended time; ingredients too thick/hard; motor overloaded. | Let the blender cool for 30-40 minutes (or 1-2 hours for E3 error) before restarting. Avoid hard foods; ensure ingredients are properly cut and diluted with liquid. |
| Lid leaking during operation or auto clean. | Sealing ring not in place; water level exceeds maximum mark. | Check and firmly press the rubber gasket into the lid groove. Keep water level below the max line (1000ml for auto clean, 1.4L for hot blending). |
| Auto-clean function doesn't start or stops working. | Improper assembly detected; water level too low/high; lid/jar not fully secured. | Ensure the jar is tightly mounted, the lid is sealed, and water is around 800-1000ml. |
| Cannot crush ice or blend smoothies properly. | Hard ice/large chunks without liquid; overfilling. | Add ice with water, milk, or fruit juice. Use the "Smoothie" mode and let the full cycle run. Avoid overfilling. |
| Blender trips circuit breaker. | Water ingress into base; faulty power outlet; short-circuit from damaged glass jar contact. | Do not submerge the handle or motor base in water. Check power outlet. If problem persists, contact customer support. |
