M will increment the Blend Cycle number, L will advance through the speed/
time parameters in the reverse direction, and Go will advance through the
speed/time parameters in the forward direction.
• Enter the speed for Speed A. (Speeds start at 1 and continue through 9 with
9 being the most aggressive.) Press GO to store the value.
• The data set will change to Time A. Enter the time in whole seconds that
you want the blender to run the speed and press GO.
• Repeat the steps to input the blend speeds and times for each sub speed
and time (A through H) to create a cycle to set up to your own parameters.
All six of the cycles can be manipulated.
• Note – you can reduce the amount of noise coming from the blender motor
by keeping the blender speed under 7.
• Press STOP twice to exit the menu.
Section 8: Troubleshooting
We hope you will never have to use this section but if you do, please don’t take
offense at some of the simplistic answers. We have had most of these prob-
lems occur during our development and with other customers.
8.1 Machine won’t run. Check the power cord to be sure it is plugged into a
functioning, properly grounded electrical circuit. Check that the switch on the
back of the machine is turned on. Check in the rear of the machine to see if
the circuit breaker button has tripped (little white button). If it has, press the
breaker button back in to reset it (the BD8 uses a 13 Amp circuit breaker).
8.2 Blender Stopped Working: If the unit does not blend, check in the rear of
the machine to see if the circuit breaker button has tripped. If it has, press the
breaker button back in to reset it (the BD8 uses a 13 Amp circuit breaker).
8.3 Drinks too runny. You may need to add more ice, and less water to the
drink. See Section 6 to reprogram your ingredients if necessary.
8.4 Drinks too thick or cavitation in blender:
Ensure that product bags are not empty; the water supply is on and unblocked;
the water and product amounts are programmed correctly. See Section 6
above to reprogram your ingredients. Cavitation is caused when the liquid and
ice mixture in the blender jar is too thick and an air pocket (or bubble) is creat-
ed around the spinning blender blade. This leaves your drink stuck to the sides
of the jar and full of large ice particles. Be sure to put in enough products to
produce a good flavor then adjust the water to ice ratio until the blender does
not cavitate when you make the drink. If your drink is too watery, you can add
more ice or less water until you get a drink that will form a smooth peak when
you pour it into a cup.
8.5 Little or no flavor in drinks: Ensure that product bags are not empty.
Check that the product hoses are not kinked. Check that the pump time is not
