The unit has overheated. Unplug and wait approximately 15 minutes before using again. Check to make sure the unit is not overloaded.
Food is Unevenly Chopped.	Either you are chopping too much food at one time, or the pieces are not of even size and processing smaller amounts per batch.
Food is Chopped Too Fine or is Too Watery.	The food has been over processed. Use pulse button for controlled processing.
Food Collects On Lid or On the Sides of the Container.	The mixture is too thick. Add more liquid.
You Cannot Achieve Snow From Solid Ice.	Do not use ice that has been sitting out or has started to melt. Use ice straight from the freezer.
Motor Base Won't Stick to Counter or Table Top.	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.
