what should i check if my blender jug is leaking?
a blender can leak from the jug, lid or a joint around the blade assembly. stop using it and identify where liquid appears before deciding whether a seal, lid or complete jug needs attention.
unplug, wait for the blades to stop and let hot contents cool before lifting and emptying the jug. look for visible cracks, poor lid seating or residue at accessible joints without turning blades by hand.
the linked leak-checking guide limits cleaning and reseating to parts the exact manual allows you to remove. KitchenAid's removable glass collar and Apuro's commercial jug are not interchangeable constructions; do not borrow a collar-release method, gasket orientation or washing permission from another design.
keep a cracked jug, loose or damaged blades, leakage towards the powered base or a continuing sealed-unit leak out of use. contact support before further operation. do not run the blender to locate a leak or open sealed blade bearings.
possible causes
- a cracked jug or damaged lid.
- a removable lid or seal that is not seated properly.
- a leak within a sealed blade assembly that needs assessment.
