Section 1: Important Safeguards

Health Certification

The Blendtec Rapid Rinser and its accessories are certified by NSF International (NSF).

Water Hose Precautions

• ▶️ Do not operate with a damaged water hose or fitting.
• ▶️ Should the water line or fitting become damaged, it should be replaced by a qualified person to avoid hazard.
• ▶️ Do not allow the water line to hang over the edge of the work surface.
• ▶️ Always shut the water off at the source before cleaning, moving, or servicing.

Turn Off the Water When Not in Use

This will prevent any possibility of spray when a blender jar is not in position.

Never Operate This Device Without a Blender Jar (or Other Drink Container) in Place

• ▶️ Avoid contacting the spray nozzle while the system is pressurized.
• ▶️ Never use the unit if it is not secured to the work surface with the suction cups provided or used in the Rapid Rinse Station.

Section 4: Installation

This equipment is to be installed with adequate backflow protection to comply with federal, state, or local codes.

Place the Rapid Rinser in the Sink Basin Where It Will Be Used

Ensure the suction cups adhere to the basin floor (lightly moisten each cup with a drop of water to facilitate suction).

Place a Blender Jar (or Other Rinsable Container 8" [20.3cm] Wide or Smaller) Over the Spray Nozzle

Connect the Water Hose to an Available Water Line

It is recommended that a certified plumber install the available water line with its own shut-off valve.

Turn the Water On

After the water line has been connected, turn on the water supply. Use hot water as per section 1.7.

Prime the Rinser

Press the blender jar (or other container) down to activate the Rapid Rinser. A steady spray of water should shoot from the nozzle. Release pressure to stop the flow. If this does not work, contact your Blendtec representative.

Section 5: Operating Instructions

Place the Blender Jar (or Other Rinsable Kitchen Container) Upside Down on the Rapid Rinser Base

Turn the Water On to Activate the Rapid Rinser

Firmly Press the Blender Jar Down to Activate Water Valve

Release the Downward Pressure When the Jar Has Been Rinsed to Your Satisfaction

Once the Spray of Water Has Subsided, Remove the Rinsed Blender Jar and Allow It to Dry in the Inverted Position

Turn the Water Off When the Rapid Rinser Is Not in Use

This will prevent any possibility of spray when a blender jar is not in position.

Section 6: Sanitation

Short-Term Sanitation

Shut off water, disconnect hose. Pull Rinser from sink. Immerse in a sink full of sanitizing solution per manufacturer's recommendation. Rinse with clean water. Allow to dry. Re-attach water fitting.

Long-Term Sanitation

Shut off water, disconnect hose. Pull Rinser from sink. Unscrew spray nozzle. Separate the two halves of the Rapid Rinser. Do not misplace the spring (see Figure 2). Clean and sanitize as per governing health department requirements. Rinse thoroughly. Allow all components to dry completely. Reassemble by placing the spring on the water valve, then the top shell, aligning the opening with the spring. Insert and tighten the spray nozzle. Replace Rinser in sink basin and reattach water hose.

Section 7: Warranty and Service

Warranty

The Blendtec Rapid Rinser is warranted for one year from the date of purchase/receipt against manufacturing and material defects. The stainless steel spray nozzle has a lifetime warranty.

Abuse or Mistreatment

Obvious abuse or mistreatment of the Rapid Rinser may void the warranty.

Need Service

Should you need service, please contact your Blendtec representative.

Section 8: Rapid Rinse Station

With the addition of the Rapid Rinse Station, you will no longer need to place your Rapid Rinser in a sink. With a water line and a drain line, you can put the Rapid Rinse Station in the most convenient spot, such as next to your Blendtec blender, to save time and make operations smoother.

Specifications

• Dimensions: 20.2" L x 8.3" W x 6.5" H (51.3 cm x 21.1cm x 16.5 cm)
• Weight: 5.3 lbs. (2.4 kg)
• Drain Connection: 3/4" Garden Hose Thread

Directions

Place the Rapid Rinser in the Rapid Rinse Station as shown. If you already own the Rapid Rinser, remove the four suction cups on the bottom before placing it in the station.

Diagram Description (Back and Front Views): The Rapid Rinse Station is shown from the back and front. The back view displays the 3/4" garden hose drain connection, while the front view shows the integrated holders designed to position blender jars for rinsing. The unit is a black, rectangular structure.

Connect a 3/4" garden hose drain line to the back of the rinse station in accordance with your local codes. A licensed plumber is recommended for installation. Ensure the drain line slopes away from the station as it is a gravity-driven system.

Do not allow the water line or drain line to hang over the edge of the work surface.

Always shut the water off at the source before cleaning, moving, or servicing.

Cleaning / Sanitation

• ▶️ Using a mild soapy solution, wipe down all surfaces of the Rapid Rinse Station.
• ▶️ Use clear, hot water to rinse the surfaces. A handheld spray bottle works best.
• ▶️ To sanitize, spray or wipe surfaces with a sanitizing solution diluted to the recommended level and left on the unit per the manufacturer's specification.

Drying / Storage

The area behind the Rapid Rinse Station is designed to store and dry your jars. See the picture below for an example of how this works.

Diagram Description (Drying/Storage Area): A visual representation shows blender jars positioned upside down in the dedicated area at the rear of the Rapid Rinse Station, facilitating efficient drying.
