Programming your
In-Counter Blending Station
Advance with a Custom Chip
1. Turn the machine on.
2. Remove the container and lift the machine from the

below the label area. Push gently until the chip
engages into the port. The display window will read
“NEW MODULE.”

re-programmed and the display window will read
“SAVED” then “READY.”
5. Remove the programming chip, return it to the original
package and store in a safe, easily accessible spot.
