Blending Instructions

1. Prepare Ingredients: Cut fruits and vegetables into small pieces (approximately 1 inch or 2.5 cm) for optimal blending. Add liquids first, then softer ingredients, followed by harder ingredients and ice. Do not exceed the 500ml mixing capacity line.
2. Assemble: Place the prepared ingredients into the blender cup. Align the blade assembly with the cup and screw it on tightly until you hear a distinct "click" sound, indicating it is securely locked.
3. Blend: Invert the blender so the motor base is at the bottom. Double-press the power button to start the blending cycle. For best results and to prevent ingredients from sticking, gently shake the blender during operation.
4. Monitor: The digital display will show the blending progress or remaining battery. The blender will automatically stop after a preset blending cycle.
5. Serve: Once blending is complete, unscrew the blade assembly. You can then attach the sip lid for direct drinking or insert a straw.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your blender, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

  • Ensure the blender cup is securely attached to the motor base and locked into place.
  • Check the battery level on the digital display. Recharge the blender if the battery is low.
  • Confirm you are double-pressing the power button to activate the blending cycle.
• Ingredients Not Blending Smoothly:
  • Ensure ingredients are cut into small, manageable pieces (approx. 1 inch).
  • Add sufficient liquid to facilitate blending.
  • Do not overfill the cup; stay below the 500ml mixing capacity line.
  • Gently shake the blender during operation to help move ingredients towards the blades.
• Blender Stops Unexpectedly During Operation:
  • This may indicate a low battery. Recharge the blender.
  • The blender may have detected an overload. Reduce the amount of ingredients or add more liquid.
  • Check for any hard objects (e.g., fruit pits, large ice chunks) that might be jamming the blades.
• Leaking from the Blender Cup:
  • Ensure the blade assembly and any attached lids are screwed on tightly and correctly aligned with the cup threads.
