K-Tec Total Blender 用户手册

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

• Make sure the main power switch on the back lower-right corner is turned 

ON.

• 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.

• Determine if the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) is lit.  An absence of a lit LCD 

indicates a lack of power to the unit.

• Remove the blender jar from the blender motor and check to make sure the 

blade turns freely while unattached to the motor.  If the blade does not move 

freely the problem may be the jar, not the motor. Check the jar by turning the 

shaft by hand to see if it rotates easily.

Look at the LCD: 

 • A reading of “OVERTEMP” indicates that the motor is overheating. The 

blender has been disabled until the unit cools to operating temperatures.  

Turn off and unplug the unit.  Allow it to cool for at least 20 minutes.   

 • A reading of “OVERLOAD” indicates an overload on the motor.  Turn off 

and unplug the unit.  Plug in the unit and turn the motor on again to clear the 

over-load condition.  Check the blender jar for blockage.  If overload condi-

tion re-occurs, contact your Blendtec service agent.

• BLADE STOPS: If the overload switch stops the blender, remove the blender 

jar and carefully check for blockage of the blade.  If no blockage is found, 

replace jar and use the Pulse button on the touch pad to quickly pulse the 

blade through the mixture.  Once the blade spins freely a programmed but-

ton may be used.

If the blender noise level has increased significantly from original levels, deter-

mine whether the sound is coming from the blender motor or jar.

• Blender Motor: Check to see if the excess noise is coming from the blender 

base.  Remove the jar and press cycle number two or three.  Listen to the 

motor sound without a jar attached.  If it is excessively noisy contact your 

Blendtec service center.

• Jar:  Check to see if the excess noise is coming from the jar.  Place the jar 

back on the motor.  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 changes as different jars are used.  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. 

7.3   BLENDED TEXTURE UNSATISFACTORY 

If the blended texture of product is lumpy or uneven, do the following:

• Ensure the mixture is not cavitating during the cycle.  Cavitation is a condi-

tion in which the blender blade spins freely in an air pocket within the drink 

mix because the mix is too cold or too solid.  This problem can be corrected 

by increasing the mix temperature by 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).  

• Increase cycle time.  If the drink is mixing well but has not had enough time 

for complete blending, try a longer cycle (usually by using higher button 

number to start the blender) or touch and hold the “Pulse” button for required 

extra blending time.
