8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Appliance does not turn on. | Not plugged in; power outlet not working; incorrect assembly. | Ensure the power cord is securely plugged in. Test the outlet with another appliance. Check that the feed tube is correctly locked onto the power base. |
| Food is not processing efficiently or gets stuck. | Food pieces are too large; blade is dull or incorrectly installed; excessive force applied with pusher. | Cut food into smaller pieces. Ensure the blade is properly seated and not damaged. Apply gentle, consistent pressure with the pusher. |
| Blade detaches during operation. | Blade not securely installed in the feed tube. | Ensure the blade is firmly clicked into place within the feed tube before attaching the feed tube to the power base. |
| Motor sounds strained or overheats. | Overloading the appliance; processing overly hard ingredients. | Reduce the amount of food being processed at once. Avoid processing extremely hard items like frozen foods or very dense nuts. Allow the motor to cool down if it feels hot. |
