Can I crush ice with this blender?

Yes, the Melissa 646173 blender can crush ice. Use the pulse function to avoid overheating the motor. Always add some liquid when crushing ice.

What should I do if the blender stops working suddenly?

The blender may have a thermal overload protection feature. Let it cool down for 10-15 minutes before trying again. If it still doesn't work, check the power supply and ensure the jug is properly locked onto the base.

Is the blender jar made of glass or plastic?

What is the maximum capacity for blending hot liquids?

Do not blend hot liquids above 60°C (140°F) to avoid pressure buildup. Always allow liquids to cool before blending.

Can I use the blender without the lid on?

How long should I run the blender continuously?

Do not run the blender for more than 1 minute continuously. Allow it to rest for at least 2 minutes between cycles to prevent motor damage.
