4.2 CONNOISSEUR IN-COUNTER INSTALLATION Preparation 1. Identify desired blender location. Consider preferences such as proximity to ingredients, available counter space, and access to a power source. (A licensed electrician may need to install appropriate power source for the blender.) 2. Ensure potential site meets all dimensional requirements (See Figure 4.) • Countertop can be no thicker than 3/4 inch (19 mm). A countertop thicker than 3/4 inch (19 mm) will obstruct ventilation louvers on the upper sides of the blender base. • If installing more than one blender, allow 14-16 inches (356-406 mm) center-tocenter blender spacing. NOTE: The blender unit draws ambient air into the louvers located on the bottom of the blender base. It then evacuates hot air through the louvers located on the upper sides of the blender base. Ensure a sufficient amount of air circulates beneath the blender base to allow cooling. Hot air should not be trapped beneath the counter top. Nothing should be stored closer than 3 inches (76 mm) from the bottom of the blender motor. 3. Cut a hole in the counter top 4 3/8 inches (111 mm) wide and 5 7/8 inches (149 mm) long with the shorter side facing the operator. (See Figure 4). Make sure all space requirements and measurements are correct BEFORE cutting. Depending on the type and style of your counter top, different types of equipment may be needed to cut the appropriate hole. It is always recommended to consult with a professional before cutting. Installation In Counter 1. Ensure that an electrical receptacle is readily accessible when you locate the equipment. 2. Slide the blender base into the hole cut in your counter top (per instructions above) with the LCD indicator and touchpad facing the operator side of the counter top. The formed rubber gasket on the rim of the motor base should fit into the hole and rest lightly on the counter top. 3. Make sure the power switch is off before plugging the unit into the wall. Plug the unit into a separate 120 volt receptacle with 15 amp protection. CN-8
