• If installing more than one blender, allow 14”–16” (356–506 mm) of center-to-center blender spacing�

• If installing a sound enclosure, allow a clearance of at least 5 ½” (140 mm) from the sound enclosure to the wall and 26” (660 mm) from the countertop to any over-thecounter cabinetry�

• Ensure lower cabinetry allows adequate airflow�

• The blender draws ambient air into the vent holes located on the upper sides of the motor and then evacuates hot air through the vents on the bottom of the motor� For the motor to cool properly, a sufficient amount of air must be able to circulate around the motor�

• There should be at least 6 ½” (165 mm) of space from the countertop to the next lower shelf of the cabinet, leaving a minimum space of 3” (76 mm) between the bottom of the motor and the lower shelf� Cabinetry should not be closed; it should allow air to flow freely from the outside to the inside of the cabinet space�

Plastic bags, cups, and so forth, should not be stored closer than 3” (76 mm) from the bottom of the motor�

• Cut a hole in the countertop 4 3/8“ (111 mm) wide and 5 7/8” (149 mm) long (see the countertop hole template in the appendix)� Ensure that the 4 3/8” (111 mm) sides are parallel with the machine operator�

Note: Double check to ensure that all space requirements and measurements are correct BEFORE cutting.

In-Counter Installation

• Feed the electrical cord through the hole in the countertop�

• Gently place the blender unit into the hole�

• Ensure the gasket is seated correctly, lying flat against the counter surface and not pinched by the housing�

• Plug the unit into an outlet with appropriate electrical protection�

2� Place the lid tightly onto the jar, place the jar on the motor base and press and hold the pulse button for 5-10 seconds�

3� Rinse all soap from the jar and lid with water�

4� If the jar is stored upside down, shake excess water from the jar after cleaning�

Note: WildSide+™ and FourSide™ jars can be stacked to save space.

5.2 LONG-TERM SANITATION

1� Sanitize the jar per local code by filling the blender jar with a sanitizer diluted to the manufacturer’s specifications� Bleach, properly diluted, can be used�

2� Leave the diluted sanitizer in the jar for 5 minutes�

3� Empty the sanitizer from the jar�

4� Rinse jar thoroughly with water�

5� If the jar is stored upside down, shake excess water from the jar after cleaning�

5.3 MOTOR BASE AND SOUND ENCLOSURE CLEANING

• Ensure the blender is unplugged before cleaning�

• Wipe down the plastic housing of the motor base, gaskets, metal top and sound enclosure with a clean, damp rag� A mild, all-purpose, nonabrasive cleaner may be used�

• The drive socket can be cleaned using a cotton swab or toothpick�

• For Stealth blender models, the sound enclosure can also be removed for cleaning, when necessary�

• Open the sound enclosure lid and use both hands to pull outward on the lid at the pivot joints� This step will flex the plastic enough for it to spread and clear its mounting tabs�

• The sound enclosure base can be removed in a similar fashion by pulling outward at the base of the sound enclosure and flexing the outer walls enough to clear the mounting tabs�

5.4 CLEANING TIPS AND CAUTIONS

• Do not use stiff bristled brushes or abrasive cloths/pads to clean the blender base, jar or sound enclosure as this will dull or scratch the surface�

• Do not use a water jet of any kind to clean the motor base�

• NEVER submerge the motor base in water� Doing so will void the warranty�

• Avoid submerging blender jars for more than 5 minutes� Water penetration through the lower jar seals will reduce the life of the jar�

SECTION 6: TROUBLESHOOTING

While we don’t expect you to have any problems with your blender, sometimes failures do occur� Use the following guidelines to see if the problem is easily fixed or requires service�

22

6.1 BLENDER MOTOR WILL NOT TURN ON (NO POWER)

If the blender motor will not turn on, try the following:

• For the Stealth 875 and Chef 775 look to see if the control surface has an illuminated power icon, for the Connoisseur 825 and EZ 600 determine if the

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) is lit� Absence of those indicators indicates a lack of power to the unit�

• Check your house circuit breaker switch or fuse to make sure it is set to the

ON position�

• Unplug the power cord from the wall receptacle, wait 5 seconds, then plug power cord back in�

6.2 ERROR MESSAGES ON DISPLAY

STEALTH 875™

6.3 NOISE LEVEL CHANGES

If the blender noise level has increased from original levels, determine whether the sound is coming from the blender motor or jar�

1� Blender Motor: Remove the jar from the motor base and run the motor� If it is excessively noisy, contact your Blendtec service center for evaluation�

2� Jar: After checking the motor, place the jar back on the motor with about 16 oz

(475 mL) of water� Run the motor for a few seconds using the pulse button� (If you have more than one jar, test a different jar to determine whether the sound is different�) If a jar is excessively noisy or if the blade assembly seems loose or sounds “gravelly” when turned by hand, contact your Blendtec service center�

6.4 NOT BLENDING OR UNSATISFACTORY BLENDED TEXTURE

If the your blender has stopped blending or if the blended texture of product is lumpy or uneven, do the following:

1� Ensure the mixture is not cavitating during the cycle� Cavitation is a condition in which an air pocket forms within the drink mix because the mix is too cold or too solid� The blender blade then spins freely in this cavity� This problem can be corrected by increasing the mix temperature by either reducing ice, increasing liquid and/or ensuring that the frozen ingredients used in the recipe are never colder than 10 degrees Fahrenheit (-12 degrees Celsius)�

2� If the drink is mixing well but has not had enough time for complete blending, increase cycle time� Try a longer cycle or touch and hold the “Pulse” button for the required extra blending time�

3� Make sure the jar is fully seated on the blender base�

4� Check if the blade is firmly affixed to the drive shaft� Hold the drive shaft in one hand and try to spin the blade with the other hand� If the blade turns without turning the drive shaft, contact your Blendtec customer service agent�

5� TRIED EVERYTHING? If none of the preceding suggestions work, contact your

Blendtec service agent for further assistance�

6.5 UNRESPONSIVE CONTROL SURFACE

If the control surface of your blender is not responding, wipe it down with a damp rag to remove any liquids or particle buildup� If that doesn’t work, unplug the power cord and then plug it in again�

INSTRUCTIONS THAT APPEAR IN THIS USER GUIDE ARE NOT MEANT TO

COVER EVERY POSSIBLE CONDITION OR SITUATION THAT MAY OCCUR. GOOD
