Frequently Asked Questions - BLSTTDT-N00 OSTER

Why does my blender stop and show 'Add Liquid'?

The ActiveSense™ technology detects insufficient liquid for proper blending. Add more liquid through the filler cap and press start/pause to resume.

Can I blend hot liquids in this blender?

Yes, but only in the 2L jar. Remove the filler cap to vent steam, start at low speed, and do not fill above the 4-cup level. Avoid hot liquids in the Blend-N-Go cup.

How do I clean the blender jar and blade?

Disassemble the jar: unscrew the threaded cup bottom. All parts (jar, lid, filler cap, blade, sealing ring, cup bottom) are dishwasher safe on the top rack. Hand wash with warm soapy water and dry thoroughly. Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth; never immerse.

What does the texture control button do?

It allows you to choose the desired consistency: for beverages, select 'Thin' or 'Thick'; for foods, select 'Chunky' or 'Smooth'. The blender adjusts blending parameters accordingly.

How do I use the Blend-N-Go cup?

Assemble the blade and sealing ring onto the cup, fill with ingredients (do not exceed MAX line), screw on cap. Place cup on motor base by pushing down and turning counterclockwise. Blend using manual or food modes (except Salsa). Max blending time is 1 minute.

Can I process dough or whip cream in the food processor?

No. The food processor attachment is not designed for dough, whipping cream, or egg whites. Use a standard mixer for those tasks.

What should I do if the blender doesn't turn on?

Ensure the base is plugged into a working outlet. Press the power button; the start/pause button should blink blue. If not, unplug for 30 seconds and retry. Check for any error codes.

How do I prevent leaking from the jar?

Make sure the sealing ring is correctly seated in the groove of the threaded cup bottom and that the blade assembly is tightened clockwise onto the jar. Also check that the lid is secure.

What is the warranty on this blender?

The Oster® BLSTTDT-N00 comes with a one-year limited warranty. See the included warranty card for details.

Can I use an extension cord?

No. Do not use an extension cord with this appliance to avoid safety hazards. Plug directly into a standard outlet.

PROCESSING TIPS

1. Cut all fruits and vegetables, cooked meats, fish, seafoods and cheeses into pieces 1 in. (2.5 cm) or smaller.
2. Do not exceed the quantities indicated in the food processing chart.
3. Always hold hand firmly on the cover when starting and running blender.
4. Do not process hot liquids or frozen foods.
5. Do not process whole spices (except peppercorns) such as nutmeg or cinnamon. They may cause damage to the surface of the processor bowl.
6. Process the hardest foods first, using only a few fast pulses to begin chopping. Add more delicate foods and continue to process using the fast pulse technique. The harder foods will continue to be chopped along with the softer foods.
7. Processing of parmesan cheese, dried dates or other extremely hard foods is not recommended. If a knife cannot easily pierce the food, it should NOT be processed in the food processor accessory.
8. The food processor accessory is not designed to whip cream, whip egg whites or process dough. Use a standard mixer for those tasks.
9. If liquid leaks from the cover, there is too much liquid in the recipe. Adjust the liquid level to prevent leakage.
10. The temperature of cheese will affect how it processes. Cheese for spreads should be at room temperature for a smooth, creamy texture. "Grated" cheese should be refrigerator cold.
11. Large, harder pieces of food can be processed with several fast pulses to coarsely chop. Then process continuously for a fine texture.

TO CONVERT A RECIPE

1. Total the amount of dry and liquid ingredients. If the total exceeds 5 cups (40 oz), decide if the recipe can be made easily in batches. Do not attempt to process large recipes.

ENGLISH-14

1. If total is under 1 cup (250 ml), process dry ingredients or the most finely chopped foods first.
2. Then add remaining ingredients and combine with several fast pulses to mix together.
