Trouble Shooting Chart

Problem

Solution

 

 

 

Motor doesn’t start or blade doesn’t rotate

Check that the blender jug or processing bowl and lid

 

 

are securely locked into position.

 

Check the Stop ready light is illuminated.

 

Check that the power plug is securely inserted into

 

 

the power outlet and switched ON

 

Be sure to press only one function control button

 

 

at a time

 

 

Food is unevenly chopped

Either too much food is being chopped at one time or

 

the pieces are not small enough. Try cutting food into

 

smaller pieces of even size and processing a smaller

 

amount per batch. For best results the food should be

 

chopped into pieces no larger than 2cm

 

 

Food is chopped too fine or is watery

The food is over processed. Use brief pulses or process

 

for a shorter time.

 

 

Food collects on processing bowl cover or side of bowl

Processing too much food. Turn the Food processor off.

 

When the blade stops rotating, remove the cover and

 

clean the bowl and cover with a spatula. Reduce

Processing too much food. Turn the Food processor off.

 

When the blade stops rotating, remove the cover.
