Cleaning and Maintenance

IMPORTANT: Your Blending Jars, Shaving, and Blending Blades are subject to wear during normal use. Always inspect for nicks, chips, or cracks. Always carefully inspect for broken, cracked, or loose blades. If any of the Jar or Shaving and Blending Blades are damaged, do not use them. Call our toll-free customer service number, 1-877-689-2737, to obtain replacement parts.

2. To remove the Ice Reservoir, push down on the Ice Reservoir Release Button (Figure 2). Lift the back of the Ice Reservoir and remove it. This will expose the Hopper Cover, Shaving Paddle, and Ice Hopper.
3. To remove the hopper cover, simply lift up at either cutout area in front of the ice hopper release catches. (Figure 4)

Troubleshooting

• If the Power Indicator Light does not light:
  Check that the unit is plugged into a working power outlet.
• If liquid leaks from the base of the Blending Jar:
  Remove it from the unit and check that the Blending Blade Sealing Ring is properly installed and that the Blending Jar Base is tightened.
• If water leaks from the unit: Empty the Ice Melt Reservoir.
• If the Blending Jar overflows during the Shave-n-Blend™ cycle:
  Follow the drink recipes included in the “making frozen drinks” section and make sure to not exceed the specified total volume.
• If the Blending Jar will not sit on the Blending Station:
  Remove it from the unit and check for ice on the Blending Base. WARNING: unplug the unit before removing ice from the Blending Base.
• If the unit is in fault mode (fast blinking red status compass rose indicator light):
  Check that the Ice Reservoir and Ice Reservoir Lid are properly installed and in the lock position.
• If the drink is too watery: Make sure to follow the recipe guide or manually shave more ice until the desired consistency is achieved.
• If the Ice Chute seems to be moving slowly or jamming, ensure not to overfill the Ice Reservoir above “ICE LEVEL”.

Do’s and Don’ts

• DO NOT Place fingers into the Blending Jar or Ice Hopper. The blades in this unit are sharp and could cause injury.
• DO NOT place Blending Jar onto Blending Stations while motor is running. The spinning Blending Bases could damage the Blending Jars.
• DO NOT twist Blending Jar when removing. Simply lift and remove. Twisting the Blending Jar could loosen the Blending Jar Base causing it to leak.
• DO NOT put hot liquid into the Blending Jar. Hot liquids could be ejected during the blending process causing injury.
• DO NOT place ice, frozen foods or very cold liquids into a Blending Jar which has come directly from a hot dishwasher. The sudden change in temperature could cause the Blending Jar to crack.
