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

1� Make sure the main power switch on the back lower-right corner is turned ON�

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

ON position�

3� Unplug the power cord from the wall receptacle, wait 5 seconds, then plug power

cord back in�

4� Determine if the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) is lit� An absence of a lit LCD indicates

a lack of power to the unit�

been disabled until the unit cools to operating temperatures� Turn off and unplug the

unit� Allow it to cool for at least 20 minutes�

the unit� Check the blender jar for blockage and clear if necessary� Remove the

blender jar from the blender motor and check the jar by turning the shaft by hand

clear the overload condition� If overload condition re-occurs, contact your Blendtec

service agent�

BLADE STOPS: If the overload condition stops the blender, remove the blender jar

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

mixture� Once the blade spins freely a programmed button may be used�
