IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
- Read all instructions.
- To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put Blender in water or other liquid.
- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are closely supervised and instructed concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
- Turn the appliance OFF, then unplug from the outlet when not in use, before assembling or disassembling parts and before cleaning. To unplug, grasp the plug and pull from the outlet. Never pull from the power cord.
- Avoid contact with moving parts.
- Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Contact the manufacturer at their customer service telephone number for information on examination, repair or adjustment.
- Do not use outdoors.
- Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
- Keep hands and utensils, other than the tamper provided, out of the container while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the blender. The cover must remain in place when using the tamper through the cover opening. A scraper may be used but must be used only when the blender is not running.
- Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
- Always operate Blender with cover in place.
- The use of attachments, including canning blender jars, not recommended by KitchenAid may cause a risk of injury to persons.
- Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
- When blending hot liquids or ingredients, Ingredient Cap should remain in place over the lid opening. Always start on lowest speed and slowly ramp to desired speed when blending hot liquids or ingredients.

- Do not use an extension cord.
- Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
USING THE COMMERCIAL BLENDER
IMPORTANT : When moving your Blender, always close the Front cover and support/lift from the Blender base. Base will become disengaged from jar if carried by Blender jar or Blender jar handle only. Do not lift by the cover or cover handle.
CARE AND CLEANING
NOTE: Do not immerse the Blender base or cord in water. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads to avoid scratching.
NOTE: Handle must be removed from the front cover prior to cleaning by removing the two screws inside the front cover.
SANITIZING THE BLENDER JAR
- Remove all contents from the blender jar.
- Fill ¾ of the jar with a sanitizing solution mix of 1.5 tsp. (7.4 mL) institutional or household bleach in 60 oz (1.75 L) water. Place the lid, and securely place the blender jar onto the blender base.
- Run the blender on the High Speed setting for 35 seconds.
- Turn off to let the sanitizing mix sit in the blender jar for an additional 2 minutes.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

| Problem | Solution |
| Status indicator light is off while unit is plugged in and On/Off switch is in On position: | After 10 minutes of no activity, the blender will go into Sleep mode. Flip START/STOP toggle switch up or down to bring the blender back into Standby mode. |
|
Status indicator light is flashing orange color: |
Indicates error mode. This can be caused by: using a spatula or any other utensil that could obstruct the
blade to freely spin, or having an ice cube or hard food in a location that locks up the blade. Unplug the blender and remove the jar from the base, and clear the items. Place the jar back on the base, and then turn on the blender to continue regular use. |
| Blender stops after continuously running for 6 minutes: | This is normal operation for variable speed functions. Refer to “Blender function guide” for details. |
|
Blender stops while blending: |
If blender stops prior to the completion of the selected function, contact an authorized service center for assistance. |
|
If the ingredients of a recipe aren’t blending: |
An air pocket can be created around the blade causing the ingredients to miss the blade. Use the tamper to push ingredients down into the blade. Refer to “Using the commercial blender” section. For certain recipes, adding more liquid may also assist in incorporating the ingredients. |
|
Blender jar overflows: |
Unplug and remove the jar pad from the housing to make sure the base is fully dry. The control dial can be detached by pulling it off with force. Wipe dry, and then replace it back. |
|
Troubleshooting does not solve the problem: |
See the “Warranty and service” section. Contact an Authorized Service Center for assistance.
Do not return the Blender to the retailer – retailers do not provide service. |
