The device isn’t heating up. What should I do?

Confirm the device is fully charged.
Clean the gold contact points inside the device using a dry cotton swab.
If the problem continues, adjust the connector using the steps below.

How to adjust the connector if the heater isn't working

Remove the bowl from the device.
Locate the gold spring-loaded contact pins inside the bowl chamber.
Use a non-metallic tool (like a toothpick or plastic pen cap) to gently push each pin upward to ensure full travel and contact.
Reinsert the bowl firmly and test the device.

The device won’t charge.

Try a different USB-C cable and wall adapter (5V/2A or higher).
Inspect the charging port for dust, lint, or residue and clean gently if needed.
Remove the bowl from the device, wait 5 seconds, and then plug it in to reset the protection circuit.
If the issue persists, try charging from a different outlet.

The bowl isn’t making proper contact.

Remove the bowl and inspect it for any residue on the bottom contact surface.
Clean both the bowl base and the contact pins inside the device with a cotton swab and isopropyl alcohol.
Let all components dry completely.
Reinsert the bowl until it clicks securely.If available, try a different bowl to test for hardware-related issues.

After swapping the bowl, the device still doesn’t work.

After inserting a new or cleaned bowl, plug the device into the charger briefly to reinitialize its internal logic.
If there’s no response, remove the bowl again, wait 10 seconds, and reinsert it firmly.
Perform a soft reset by holding the power button for 10 seconds.

The device shuts off too soon.

Confirm the device is fully charged.
Check if the auto shut-off timer is being triggered (e.g., no input for 5 minutes).
Try turning it on and immediately beginning use to avoid idle shutdown.
If it shuts down instantly or during heating, record a video and submit a warranty claim.
