Instructions for using the Pre-Set Program Buttons

The following is the basic settings of the six Pre-Set buttons for The Quiet One. These programs, numbered 1 through 6, are blending cycles designed for the most commonly made drinks. Depending on the viscosity of the drink you are creating, selecting one of the Pre-Set programs will run the machine for a full cycle. The machine will stop by itself when the cycle is complete. A cycle varies in speed and length. Your machine's Pre-Set options may differ due to program revisions or due to the difference of recipes, your results may also vary.

BUTTON 1: General Purpose / Smoothie - blends smoothies and thin drinks consisting of juice and ice to a creamy consistency. (18)

BUTTON 2: Double Smoothle - blends similar drinks to that of button 1 but at larger volumes. (18)

BUTTON 3: Frozen Coffee and Juices - blends light coffee drinks to a creamy consistency. (18)

BUTTON 4: Ice Cream Drinks - blends drinks containing hard ice cream to a thick shake consistency. (28)

BUTTON 5: Double and hard-to-blend ice cream drinks. (20)

BUTTON 6: Thick Hard-toblend Smoothie - blends thick frozen fruit & hard ingredients for a thick but consistent smoothie. (28)

Blending Tips

1. Place liquids and soft foods in the container first, solid items and ice last. Although not necessary for processing, you may want to cut or break food into smaller pieces for more precise measuring of ingredients. Thawed or partially thawed fruit is recommended.
2. As a general rule, compared to other blenders, you do not need as much ice to make an equally frozen drink in The Quiet One. If your recipe freezes up, try reducing the amount of ice.
3. Set the container on the motor base by aligning it over the centering pad anchored to the base. (Motor must be completely stopped before positioning container.) Containers are not to be used for hard, dry materials. Avoid running your machine with the container empty.
4. Always use a lid that is securely attached when blending.
5. Plug the machine into the nearest outlet (if unplugged). Press the On/Off switch to on. Select desired programmed setting by pressing any of the Pre-Set buttons 1 through 6. The machine will immediately begin to cycle through the selected program and turn off when the program is complete. (NOTE: Each button has a different pre-selected combination of speed and length for blending.)
6. Once one of the six Pre-Set program buttons is pushed, the machine will start and stop automatically. By pressing another Pre-Set button, the machine will stop the blending cycle.
7. When the cycle is complete, the blender stops. Wait until blades come to a complete stop before removing the lid and/or container from the motor base.
8. Remove the container, pour, garnish and serve the drink.
9. Press the On/Off power switch to off when not in use.

Maintenance Tips

• Never bang the container against a surface to loosen the ingredients. Remove the container from the base and use a rubber spatula to remove thick mixtures from the bottom of your container.
• Never shake or rattle a container while in use.
• Never remove the container before the machine has come to a complete stop.
• Never start the motor before the container is in place.

IMPORTANT NOTES!

• Check your blades daily for loose, nicked or missing parts. If you find something is loose, nicked or missing, replace the blade assembly before use. Do not tighten hex-headed screw (on top of blade assembly). If loose, replace blade assembly immediately.
  The instructions appearing in this Use and Care Manual cannot cover every possible condition and situation that may occur. Common sense and caution must be practiced when operating and maintaining any appliance.
• When the thermal protector shuts the motor off, review your processing techniques and your instructions. Your recipes may be too thick or have too much material in them. Consider adding more liquid and consult Vitaminix® Customer Service or your local Vitaminix Distributor for further assistance.

Blade Assembly

Blade Agiltator Assembly: The blade assembly includes a precision-hardened stainless steel blade with enclosed double sealed steel ball bearings for maximum durability. The rugged blade assembly literally explodes molecules of food and ice in the container, helping every batch to homogenize more effectively. The blades do not need to be removed for normal cleaning.

Drive Spline: Inserts into drive socket on the motor base to turn the blade. Note: Removing and replacing your container while the drive socket is still rotating will strip the drive spline "teeth." (This part is NOT removable.)

Retalner Nut: Must be tight.

IMPORTANT NOTES!

Cleaning Products: Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or concentrated bleach when cleaning. Do not use any of the following cleaning products: automatic dishwashing detergents, oven cleaners, steel wool or other abrasive pads.

Cover: Do not wash cover door, handle or back cover in dishwasher. It is recommended that the handle not be disassembled during cleaning. However, if you choose to disassemble the handle from the cover, make sure to not over-tighten it when reattaching it to the cover. Doing so will cause damage.

Container: Do not let mixtures, liquids or food products dry in the container. Rinse after use. Dry product may lock around the blade and weaken/tear the bearings seal when restarted. Do not place containers in the freezer. Extremely low temperature combined with hot ingredients and/or the immediate rapid action of the blade may crack the container. Microwaving and automatic dishwashing are not recommended.

Blade Assembly: Do not soak the blade agitator assembly.

• Be sure to uplug the blender and wring excess water out of cloth or sponge when cleaning around the controls or any electrical part.
  **Recommended sanitizing solution: 1.5 tsp. / 7,4 ml institutional or household bleach in 2 qt. / 1,9 L water.

Motor Base/Control Panel: Unplug the power cord and gently wash the outside surface with a damp soft cotton cloth moistened with a mild solution of warm water* and nonabrasive detergent or nonabrasive liquid spray cleaner. Be careful to not scratch or scrub the display window on the control panel. Never Immerse the motor base in water or other liquid. Dry with a soft cotton cloth.

Lid: Wash in warm, soapy water. Rinse clean under running water and dry.

Cover Door: The cover can be removed and cleaned by placing under running water and washing with a soft cloth. Wipe dry and replace back on the base.

Container Centering Pad: Remove the centering pad. Wash the pad in warm, soapy water. Rinse clean under running water and dry. Reassemble before use. Replace the sound enclosure. The centering pad should be flat on the motor base.

Container: The Advance container has been designed to be chemical resistant. However, for maximum container life, hand washing is recommended.

To Clean: Wash all container parts in warm soapy water. Rinse and drain. Do not soak the blade assembly.**

To Sanitize: After all solid residue is removed, fill container 3 / 2 full with a sanitizing solution mix. *** Return container to motor base and firmly position the two-piece lid. Run machine on a high speed for 30 seconds. Turn machine off and allow mixture to stand in the container for an additional 112 minutes. Pour out contents. Return container to motor base and run machine empty for an additional 5 seconds. Do not rinse after sanitizing. Allow container to air dry.
