SECTION 5: CARE AND CLEANING
5.1 CLEANING AFTER USE
1� Add hot water and 1-2 drops of liquid dish soap to the blender jar�
2� Place the lid tightly onto the jar, place the jar on the motor base and press and
hold the pulse button for 5-10 seconds�
3� Rinse all soap from the jar and lid with water�
4� If the jar is stored upside down, shake excess water from the jar after cleaning�
Note: WildSide+™ and FourSide™ jars can be stacked to save space.
5.2 LONG-TERM SANITATION
1� Sanitize the jar per local code by filling the blender jar with a sanitizer diluted to
the manufacturer's specifications� Bleach, properly diluted, can be used�
2� Leave the diluted sanitizer in the jar for 5 minutes�
3� Empty the sanitizer from the jar�
4� Rinse jar thoroughly with water�
5� If the jar is stored upside down, shake excess water from the jar after cleaning�
5.3 MOTOR BASE AND SOUND ENCLOSURE CLEANING
• Ensure the blender is unplugged before cleaning�
• Wipe down the plastic housing of the motor base, gaskets, metal top and sound
enclosure with a clean, damp rag� A mild, all-purpose, nonabrasive cleaner may
be used�
• The drive socket can be cleaned using a cotton swab or toothpick�
• For Stealth blender models, the sound enclosure can also be removed for
cleaning, when necessary�
• Open the sound enclosure lid and use both hands to pull outward on the
lid at the pivot joints� This step will flex the plastic enough for it to spread and
clear its mounting tabs�
• The sound enclosure base can be removed in a similar fashion by pulling
outward at the base of the sound enclosure and flexing the outer walls
enough to clear the mounting tabs�
5.4 CLEANING TIPS AND CAUTIONS
• Do not use stiff bristled brushes or abrasive cloths/pads to clean the blender
base, jar or sound enclosure as this will dull or scratch the surface�
• Do not use a water jet of any kind to clean the motor base�
• NEVER submerge the motor base in water� Doing so will void the warranty�
• Avoid submerging blender jars for more than 5 minutes� Water penetration
through the lower jar seals will reduce the life of the jar�
