TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock and unintended operation, turn power off and unplug unit before troubleshooting.

Unit doesn’t turn off.

•  Remove bowl from base by rotating it anti-clockwise and lifting it. Unplug the power cord from the socket.

Unit doesn’t mix well; ingredients get stuck.

• Using the Auto-iQ® programs 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 worktop or tabletop.

• Make sure surface and suction feet are wiped clean. Suction feet will only stick to smooth surfaces.
•  Suction feet will not stick to 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 (chopping board, platter, plates, etc.).

Unit is difficult to remove from worktop 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 bowl.
