Dry milling
Please note that milling hard ingredients like spices, nuts, sugar, coffee, grains, etc will cause scratching
and clouding to the inside surfaces of the jug. This is a cosmetic result from milling these kinds of ingredients,
and does not affect the performance of the jug.
Avoid over-processing spices though. Essential oils found in spices when combined with heat can
damage the jug surface.

chopped
• Reduce the speed so the blades have more chance of grabbing the food
• This can happen when too much food is being blended at one time.
Try a smaller amount, and work in batches if necessary.
• The ingredients may be too large. Try cutting into smaller pieces.
For best results, ingredients should be in pieces no larger than 2cm.
Food is chopped too
• Try blending for shorter period of time or slower speeds.
fine or is watery
• Use the ICE CRUSH | PULSE function for better control.
Food sticks to blade • The mixture may be too thick. Try adding more liquid and/or using a slower

Food stuck under
• To remove any food that cannot easily be scraped out from under the
blades blades, replace lid and turn blender back on high speed for 4–5 seconds to
spin foods out from under blades.
Blender overloaded • This blender has a motor protection feature to protect against over heating
and/or over current use. When activated OVERLOAD PROTECTION will
flash on the LCD and the blender will be inoperable.
• If activated, turn the blender off by pressing the ON | OFF button on the
control panel, switch of at the wall and unplug the blender. Wait a few
minutes then re-plug and power ON the blender.
• If OVERLOAD PROTECTION is still flashing, repeat and leave the blender
to cool down for at least 20–30 minutes. Once OVERLOAD PROTECTION
has disappeared from the screen the blender is ready to be used again.
• We recommend blending in smaller batches, or cutting ingredients into
smaller pieces.
