Troubleshooting

Check to see if the Blender is plugged
into a grounded 3-prong outlet. If it is,
press "O", then unplug the Blender.
Plug it back in to the same outlet. If the
Blender still does not work, check the
fuse or circuit breaker on the electrical
circuit the Blender is connected to and
make sure the circuit is closed.
The Blender may be overloaded. If the
Blender becomes overloaded when
blending heavy ingredients, it will
automatically shut off to prevent damage
to the motor. Press "O" to reset the
Blender. Remove the jar from the base
and divide the jar contents into smaller
batches. Adding liquid to the jar may
also reduce the load on the Blender.
The Blender may be jammed. If it's
jammed, the Blender will stop running
to prevent damage to the motor. Press
"O" to reset the Blender. Remove the
pitcher from the base and free the
blades by breaking-up or removing the
contents at the bottom of the jar.
