6. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Blender does not turn on. | Not plugged in; power switch off; container not properly seated; thermal protection activated. | Ensure unit is plugged in and power switch is ON. Check that the container is securely placed on the base. If motor overheated, allow 15-20 minutes to cool. |
| Ingredients not blending smoothly. | Too little liquid; too many ingredients; ingredients are too large or hard. | Add more liquid. Reduce the amount of ingredients. Cut ingredients into smaller pieces. Use the tamper to push ingredients towards the blades. Increase speed or use pulse function. |
| Motor smells or smokes. | Overloading; prolonged use; thermal protection activated. | Immediately turn off and unplug the blender. Allow the unit to cool down for 15-20 minutes. Reduce load for future use. If smoking persists, contact customer support. |
