ENGLISH
Indicator lights are flashing alternately. 
The Blender may be jammed. If it’s 
jammed, the Blender will stop running 
to prevent damage to the motor. Press 
OFF 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.
Troubleshooting
 
The Blender does not operate when a setting is selected:
No indicator lights are lit. 
Check to see if the Blender is plugged 
into a grounded 3-prong outlet. If it is, 
press OFF, 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 stops while blending:
All indicator lights are flashing 
at the same time. 
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 OFF 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.
If the problem cannot be fixed with the steps provided in this section, then contact
