Frequently Asked Questions - Viva Collection HR3555 PHILIPS

Can I blend hot ingredients in the blender?

Yes, but let liquids cool to about 60-70°C before blending. Never pour boiling water directly into the glass bowl to avoid thermal shock.

How to clean the blender properly?

Disassemble the bowl, lid, and cap. Wash these parts in the dishwasher or with warm soapy water. Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth, without immersion.

Yes, use the pulse function or high speed. Add a little water to facilitate crushing and do not exceed maximum capacity.

What is the maximum liquid capacity?

Are the blender parts dishwasher safe?

The glass bowl, lid, and cap are dishwasher safe. Place them on the top rack. The motor base and blades must be hand washed.

The blender is noisy or vibrates abnormally, what to do?

Check that the bowl is properly locked and ingredients do not exceed capacity. Ensure non-slip feet are clean and the surface is stable.

Can I blend nuts or hard seeds?

How to change the blender blades?

Blades are not user-serviceable. If damaged, contact Philips service for replacement of the blade assembly. Do not attempt to disassemble them yourself.

The lid leaks during blending, what to check?

Ensure the sealing gasket is properly in place and clean. The lid must snap shut. Do not exceed maximum capacity to avoid splashes.
