Trouble Shooting
1. What if canister stops rotating before the 9 minute cycle?
If the canister stops rotating before 9 minute cycle, press the “OFF”
button on the control panel and remove plug from outlet. Check the
power base and canister are clean and dry. Wipe with damp cloth if
necessary and allow drying.
2. What if canister does not rotate at all?
If the canister does not rotate at all, perhaps there is too much food in the
canister. Remove some food from the canister. The weight capacity must
NOT exceed 5lbs.
3. What if the LED light does not turn red when you plug it in?
Check power switch on the back of the power base is ON. Make sure
electrical cord is plugged into an outlet. If doesn’t work try another outlet
to make sure the fuse isn’t blown.
