Frequently Asked Questions - 12180026 Exido

How do I clean the blender after use?

Fill the jar halfway with warm water and a drop of dish soap. Run the blender on pulse for 30 seconds, then rinse thoroughly. The jar and lid are dishwasher safe. Dry all parts before reassembling.

Can I crush ice with this blender?

Yes, the Exido 12180026 blender is designed to crush ice. Add ice cubes to the jar, use the pulse function, and blend until desired consistency. Do not overload the jar.

What should I do if the blender stops working suddenly?

Check if the overload protection has activated. Unplug the blender, let it cool for 15-20 minutes, then try again. Also ensure the jar is properly locked onto the base. If it persists, consult the manual.

Is the blender jar BPA-free?

Yes, the plastic jar is made from BPA-free materials, ensuring safe blending for food and beverages.

How do I use the pulse function?

Press and hold the pulse button for short bursts. This is ideal for chopping ingredients or crushing ice. Release the button to stop instantly.

What is the maximum capacity for blending hot liquids?

The blender is not intended for hot liquids. Allow liquids to cool to room temperature before blending to avoid pressure buildup and potential lid ejection.

Can I blend dry ingredients like nuts or coffee beans?

Yes, but avoid overloading. For best results, use the pulse function and blend in short bursts. The stainless steel blades can handle small quantities of dry ingredients.

How do I replace the blade assembly?

The blade assembly is not user-serviceable. If damaged, contact Exido support or an authorized service center. Do not attempt to disassemble the blade unit.

What is the warranty period for this blender?

The Exido 12180026 blender comes with a 2-year limited warranty from the date of purchase. Retain your receipt for warranty claims.

Why is the blender vibrating excessively?

Excessive vibration may indicate an unbalanced load or the jar not being securely locked. Ensure the jar is properly aligned and the ingredients are evenly distributed. Also check the rubber feet for damage.

SAFETY MEASURES

General

• Use for its intended purpose only. The manufacturer is not responsible for any injury or damage resulting from incorrect use or handling (see also Guarantee Terms).
• For domestic use only. Not for outdoor or commercial use.
  • For connection to 230 V, 50 Hz only.
• Never submerge the appliance, cord or plug in water, and no water must be allowed to enter the motor section.
• Never touch the appliance, cord or plug with wet or damp hands.
• Do not expose to direct sunlight, high temperatures, humidity, dust or corrosive substances.
• Never leave the appliance unattended when it is switched on.
• Keep the appliance under constant supervision while in use. Keep an eye on children in the vicinity of the appliance when it is being used. The appliance is not a toy.
• The appliance contains sharp parts - keep out of the reach of children.
• The appliance is not to be used by persons with reduced sensitivity, physical or mental disabilities or persons who are unable to use the appliance, unless supervised or instructed by a person responsible for their safety.

Use

• Always place the appliance on a dry, level and firm surface well away from any edges.
- The appliance should only be switched on when the blender glass with lid has been attached and contains liquid and/or food.
- Never pour boiling liquid or very hot food into the blender glass. Make sure that the food has a sufficiently low temperature to avoid burning/scalding in case of skin contact.

• Never add liquid or food above the "1,000 ml" mark on the blender glass.
• Do not use the appliance if the blender glass is cracked or damaged in any way.
• Do not leave the appliance running non stop for more than 2 minutes at a time. If the appliance has been running for 2 minutes, allow it to cool down for 2 minutes before you use it again.
• Never put tools or your hands into the blender glass while the appliance is switched on. Please note that the blade may still rotate for a while after you switch off the appliance.
• Note: A blender knife rotates extremely fast and therefore needs to be cooled down. The indicated max time for non-stop use of the blender only applies to the blending of liquid, as the liquid cools down the blade. Therefore do not use the blender to grind dry ingredients, as this can result in damage to the blade!
• Be careful not to touch the sharp edges of the blades during use and cleaning!
  NOTE! The appliance is equipped with a safety switch, to avoid accidental starts. The safety switch will allow the appliance to operate if the appliance is correctly assembled and the parts are securely fixed as described in the instructions. If otherwise, the appliance will not operate! If the appliance does not start, we recommend you check the appliance assembly thoroughly. The customer should use the blender again only after the motor totally cools down.

Cord and plug

• Do not let the cord hang out over the edge of the work surface.
• Check that it is not possible to pull or trip over the cord or any extension cord.
• Keep the cord and appliance away from heat sources, hot objects and naked flames.
• Remove the plug from the socket when cleaning, and when not in use. Avoid pulling the cord when removing the plug from the socket. Instead, hold the plug.

- Ensure that the cord is fully extended.

- The cord must not be twisted or wound around the appliance.

- Check regularly that neither the cord nor plug is damaged and do not use if there is any damage, or if it has been dropped on the floor, dropped in water or damaged in any other way.

- If the appliance, cord or plug have been damaged, have them inspected and if necessary repaired by an authorised repair engineer. Never try to repair the appliance yourself. Please contact the store where you bought the appliance for repairs under the guarantee. Unauthorised repairs or modifications to the appliance will invalidate the guarantee.
