Motor horsepower for the blender motor was measured using a dynamometer, a machine
that laboratories routinely use to measure the mechanical power of motors. Our 3.5 peak
horsepower (HP) motor reference reflects the horsepower output of the motor itself and
not the Blender’s horsepower output in the blender jar. As with any blender, the power
output in the blender jar is not the same as the horsepower of the motor itself. This
motor delivers 2.45 peak HP in the blender jar, enabling your Blender to deliver robust
power for all your recipes.

COMMERCIAL BLENDER SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put Blender in water
or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning.
5. Avoid contact with moving parts.
6. Do not operate the Blender with a damaged cord or plug or after appliance
malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance
to the nearest Authorized Service Center for examination, repair, or electrical
or mechanical adjustment. If the supply cord or plug is damaged, it must be
replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or
service agent.
7. Do not use outdoors.
8. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

COMMERCIAL BLENDER SAFETY
9. Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to reduce the risk
of severe injury to persons or damage to the Blender. A spatula or scraper
other than the provided Flex Edge tamper may be used, but must be used
only when the Blender is not running.
10. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
11. The use of attachments, including canning blender jars, not recommended
by KitchenAid may cause a risk of injury to persons.
12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
13. Always operate Blender with cover in place.
14. When blending hot liquids or ingredients, ingredient-measuring cup 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.

Before first use
Before using your Blender for the first time,
wipe the blender base with a warm damp
cloth, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Dry with a soft cloth. Wash the blender
jar, lid, and ingredient cup in warm, sudsy
water (see “Care and cleaning” section).
Rinse parts and wipe dry.

Utilize the Flex Edge tamper
accessory as needed for optimal
blending performance. Remove
the ingredient-measuring cap only,
and leave the lid in place. Stir or
press contents down towards the
blade. When you are finished,
replace the ingredient-measuring
cap in the blender jar lid before
resuming blending.
6
If desired, use the Pulse function for
a momentary boost of speed while
blending on the variable speed
settings.
PRESS AND HOLD the PULSE toggle
switch up for a faster pulse, or down
for a slower pulse.
7
After blending, flip the START/STOP
toggle switch up or down. Allow the
Blender to come to a complete stop
before removing the lid and pouring
your blended ingredients.

If the Blender remains in standby
mode for 10 minutes with no
activity, the Blender will enter sleep
mode. To get out of sleep mode,
press the START/STOP switch once
to bring into standby mode. Then,
press START/STOP once more to
start the Blender.
USING THE COMMERCIAL BLENDER
NOTE: The Pulse function may also
be used on its own as a separate
blending function while the Blender
is in Standby mode.

TROUBLESHOOTING | 11
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. When the Blender is plugged in and the
main power On/Off (I/O) toggle switch
is on (I), the Blender will go to Standby
mode (flashing white indicator light).
However, after 10 minutes of
no activity the Blender will go into
Sleep mode and the indicator light
will turn off.
• To wake up the Blender simply flip
the START/STOP toggle switch up
or down. This will put the Blender
back into Standby mode.
2. If the status indicator light flashes
an orange color, the Blender is in
error mode. This can be caused by:
using a spatula or any other utensil that
could obstruct the blade to freely spin
in the blender jar, or having an ice cube
or hard food in a location that locks up
the blade.
• Correct the problem by turning off
the Blender using the dedicated
On/Off toggle switch in the back,
or by unplugging the Blender.
Remove the blender jar from the
base, and clear the items. Place the
Blender back on the base, and then
turn the
Blender back on to continue
regular use.
3. If the Blender stops while blending:
• After 6 minutes of run time, the
Blender will automatically shut off
and go into Sleep mode, and the
LED light will turn off. You can wake
the Blender back up using the
toggle switches (START/STOP or Pulse
High/Pulse Low). If the Blender stops
in less than 6 minutes, it is possible
there is an internal error with the
Blender. Contact an authorized
service center for assistance.
4. If the ingredients of a recipe aren’t
blending:
• There may be times when an air
pocket is created around the blade
causing the ingredients to miss the
blending blade. Stop the Blender,
remove the blender jar from the
base, and use a spatula to rearrange
ingredients in the blender jar. For
certain recipes, try adding more
liquid.
5. If you experience an overflow from
the blender jar:
• Disconnect the Blender from the
power source. 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. To avoid damage to the
graphics when cleaning, don’t apply
too much force or use abrasive
cleansers or scouring pads.
If the problem cannot be corrected:
See the “Warranty and service” section.
Do not return the Blender to the retailer;
retailers do not provide service.
