OVERLOAD PROTECTION SYSTEM
The blender is equipped with an internal
self resetting overload protector to protect
the motor from damage under heavy or
continuous loads. If the extractor suddenly
stops during use, this protector may
have tripped.
Remove the cup, unplug and leave it to cool
for at least 30 minutes. Do not replace the
cup assembly while cooling as the protector
may reset causing it to start unexpectedly.
Tripping the protector indicates that the
extractor is being loaded too heavily, or
with excessive continuous use. Reduce the
amount of ingredients used or allow more
time in between blending to prevent it from
happening again, which will help preserve
the life of the motor.
The MAX line is usually a good indicator to
prevent overly heavy loading, however some
especially dense combinations of ingredients
may still strain the motor. If the motor seems
to be straining or running slowly, only
operate for 10 seconds at a time, or reduce
the amount of ingredients used. Adding more
liquid can also help to loosen dense mixtures.
Note that none of the recipes in the recipe
book provided with this product are
considered a heavy load.
Hints & Tips
Never blend hot (or even warm) ingredients.
The blades form a seal with the cups, and
there is no venting for steam to be released.
We recommend not blending longer than the
recommend times in the recipes provided
with this product, or no more than 1 minute
at a time. Ingredients in the cup may become
warm and cause internal pressure on the
seals making it difficult to open or splatter
ingredients when opened. Allow to cool and
take care when opening.
Always add liquids for optimum blending
(except the grinding attachment, which must
be used dry). If the blending action is not
causing the ingredients to circulate,
try adding more liquid.
If the results are lumpy, try reducing the
ingredients, or blending in batches.
Run the extractor only for the appropriate
amount of time required – do not over blend
ingredients.
If foods are thick, use a pulsing action by
twisting the cup to engage and disengage
the motor as needed. This will help
ingredients circulate.
Do not exceed the maximum mark when
adding foods and liquids into the cup.
To stop blending at any time, rotate the cup
anti-clockwise to disengage the motor.
The maximum amount of ice cubes the
extractor can process is 4 from a standard ice
tray. This also applies to frozen fruit. Cut fruit
into pieces of a similar size to an ice cube
before freezing.
For even grinding do not process more than
L½ cup at a time in the grinding cup.
When grinding nuts, it is recommended
to only process to a meal consistency.
The grinding attachment is not suitable to
make nut butters.
