FAQs
Can I blend ice with this portable blender?

The product information does not specify the exact battery life. However, it is designed for convenient on-the-go use, typically providing enough power for several blends on a full charge.
What is the capacity of the bottle?
The bottle has a capacity of 450ml, which is ideal for single-serving smoothies and protein shakes.
Is the bottle dishwasher safe?
Yes, the BPA-free bottle is dishwasher safe. It is recommended to place it on the top rack for cleaning.
Can I use the blender while it's plugged in and charging?
It is generally not recommended to use the blender while it is actively charging to avoid potential electrical issues and ensure optimal battery health.
What kind of ingredients should I avoid blending?
Avoid very hard ingredients like large ice cubes, frozen fruit chunks, hard nuts, or fibrous vegetables that may be difficult to break down and could damage the blades or motor.
How do I clean the blade assembly?
Carefully detach the blade assembly from the bottle and rinse it under running water. Use a soft brush to remove any residue. Ensure it is completely dry before reattaching.
Troubleshooting
Blender not turning on
Ensure the blender is fully charged. Check that the blade assembly is screwed on tightly and correctly aligned with the motor base.
Ingredients not blending smoothly
Cut harder ingredients into smaller pieces. Ensure there is sufficient liquid. Do not overfill the bottle. Use the pulse function to break down ingredients initially.
Blender stops during operation
The 40-second timer may have completed. Press the button again to resume blending. If it stops repeatedly, the motor may be overheating; allow it to cool down before use.
Leaking from the bottle
