What exactly does Lock Mode do on a BlendJet?

[Thomas Martinez]

Saw Lock Mode discuss a few times in the BlendJet BlendJet threads. Thought I'd ask since the manual covers it in a thin section. From what I found, you must hold the power button until the led indicator blink purple three times which should place it in Lock Mode. The blender will not run while in this state. To exit Lock Mode, hold the button again until it blinks blue three times indicating the blender are unlocked.

Yeah, I know this one. My mom called me the other day convinced hers was dead. Took her 40 minutes to get to her place, held the button until it blinked blue and she was happy with me tell her it was unlocked. She still dont believe me when I tell her the blender was in Lock Mode.
