My bottle cap is stuck in the base. How do I get it out?

First unplug the unit. Then re-tighten the bottle into the cap strongly to achieve a good grip. Then try again to remove from the base by turning it counter-clockwise.

What if my blender stopped working in the middle of blending something?

In the event that the unit loses power, it’s possible that the motor was overheated. In this case, the thermal fuse has activated and turned off the blender in order to cool itself down. Unplug the unit and wait 15 minutes. This should reset the fuse and be able to blend again.

Is it dishwasher safe?

Why won't my blender turn on?

Check the following:
Is the blender plugged into a working outlet?
Is the jar positioned on the base correctly?
Is the blade assembly tightened all the way?
