  If you see an “E2” error message on the display of your Kiwi Kitchen Appliances device, it could be due to a couple of reasons: * The mixing bowl might not be correctly inserted. Ensure it's placed into the mixing bowl mount and pressed down until you hear it engage. * The mixing bowl might be open, or the mixing bowl lid or steaming attachment isn't locked properly. Check and correct the fit of the mixing bowl lid / steaming attachment.

  If your Kiwi Kitchen Appliances device switches off and you can't switch it back on, it's possible the motor has overheated. Here's what you should do: 1. Switch off the device using the On / Off switch. 2. Remove the mixing bowl and open it. 3. Reduce the quantity of ingredients and / or add a little liquid. 4. Wait for about 5 minutes to allow it to cool down. 5. Close the mixing bowl and reinsert it in the motor unit. 6. Switch on the device using the On / Off switch.

Why does my Kiwi Kitchen Appliances device have an unpleasant smell during use?
- T
  Tracy WilliamsAug 22, 2025
  If you notice an unpleasant smell during the use of your Kiwi Kitchen Appliances device, there could be a couple of reasons: * If it's the first time you're using the device, a smell often develops when new devices are first used. This smell should disappear after you've used the device several times. * If the motor is under too much strain, it might produce a smell due to overheating. This is harmless, and the device will be in full working order again after it cools down.
