Frequently Asked Questions - 646181 Melissa

Why won't the appliance start?

The appliance has a safety switch that prevents operation unless all parts are correctly assembled. Ensure the mixing bowl, blender jug, or grinder is locked into place with the lid securely fitted. Check that the locking pin on the lid is engaged.

How long can I run the food processor continuously?

Do not run the appliance for more than 3 minutes at a time. Allow it to rest for at least 1 minute before turning it on again to prevent overheating.

Can I blend hot liquids?

No, never pour boiling liquid or very hot food into the blender jug or mixing bowl. Hot contents can cause pressure buildup, making the lid pop off and splashing. Allow food to cool sufficiently first.

Can I wash the accessories in the dishwasher?

Yes, the blender jug, mixing bowl, grinder, and other accessories are dishwasher safe. Alternatively, wash them by hand with warm water and washing-up liquid. Always dry completely before use.

How do I clean the motor base?

Wipe the motor section with a damp cloth and a little detergent if needed. Never immerse the motor base, cord, or plug in water, and avoid letting any water enter the motor section.

What is the maximum capacity for blending?

The blender jug has a maximum capacity of 1.5 litres. Do not fill above the marked line. For the mixing bowl, the maximum is 1000 ml.

Can I crush ice in the blender?

Yes, but always add some liquid to the blender jug when crushing ice cubes. Do not operate the blender with only ice, as this may damage the blades.

How do I change the blade?

Always unplug the appliance before changing blades. Remove the blade attachment by lifting it off the attachment holder. Be careful as the blades are very sharp. Avoid touching them directly.

Is the grinder suitable for coffee beans?

Yes, the grinder is intended for grinding coffee beans and chopping nuts. Do not overfill the grinder, and ensure the silicone ring is fitted in the blade unit before use.

Where can I find spare parts or accessories?

Visit the official website at www.adexi.eu and go to the 'Consumer Services' menu. There you can find contact details for technical questions, repairs, and ordering spare parts or accessories.

• Never remove the lid until the appliance is completely stopped.
• Never pour boiling liquid or very hot food into the blender jug or mixing bowl. Make sure that the food has a sufficiently low temperature to avoid burning/scalding in case of skin contact.

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.

- WARNING: When mixing hot liquids/foods excess pressure may build up inside the blender, and this could make the lid come off and the contents splash out. We therefore recommend that you avoid mixing excessively hot foods and that you only put very small quantities of hot liquids or foods into the blender.

Cord and plug

- Do not let the cord hang out over the edge of the work surface.

- Ensure that the cord is fully extended.

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

- Check regularly that neither cord nor plug is damaged and do not use if they are, or if the appliance has been dropped or damaged in any other way.

- If either the appliance, cord or plug has been damaged, have the appliance inspected and if necessary repaired by an authorised repairer. 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.
