TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock and unintended operation, turn power off and
unplug unit before troubleshooting.
Display will show “INSTALL” once connected to power. · Place container on base and rotate it clockwise until container clicks into place. Press the Power
button to turn unit on, and the BlendSenseTM program will illuminate, indicating the unit is ready for use.
Display reads “Er”. · If the display reads “Er,” unplug the unit from the electrical outlet and allow it to cool for 15 minutes.
Remove the container’s lid and blade assembly and empty the contents to ensure no ingredients are jamming the blade assembly.
Unit doesn’t mix well; ingredients get stuck. · Using the BlendSense program is the easiest way to achieve great results. The pulses and pauses
allow the ingredients to settle toward the blade assembly. If ingredients are routinely getting stuck, adding some liquid will usually help.
Motor base won’t stick to counter or tabletop. · Make sure surface and suction feet are wiped clean. Suction feet will only stick to smooth surfaces. · Suction feet will not stick on some surfaces such as wood, tile, and non-polished finishes. · DO NOT attempt to use unit when the motor base is stuck to a surface that is not secure (cutting
board, platter, plate, etc.).
Unit is difficult to remove from counter for storage. · Place your hands underneath both sides of the motor base and gently pull the unit up and toward you.
Food is not evenly chopped. · For best results when chopping, cut pieces of ingredients in a uniform size and don’t overfill the vessel.
The pitcher lid handle will not fold down. · The handle will not fold down if the lid isn’t attached to the pitcher. For storage, place the lid on the
pitcher and press down on the handle until it clicks into place.
