Magic Bullet MBR-1101 Blender

Important Safeguards

Warning! To avoid the risk of serious injury, carefully read all instructions before operating your Magic Bullet®. When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be observed, including the following important information.

Save These Instructions!
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

Close supervision is necessary when an appliance is used by or near children. Keep cord out of reach of children.
NEVER LEAVE THE MAGIC BULLET® UNATTENDED WHILE IT IS IN USE.
Do not use your Magic Bullet® for anything other than its intended use.

HEAT & PRESSURE SAFETY
Do not blend hot or carbonated ingredients!

Never put hot or carbonated ingredients in any of the cups before or while blending. Heated ingredients can cause pressure to build up in the sealed cup, causing possible expulsion of hot ingredients which may cause personal injury or property damage. Start with room temperature or cooler ingredients (21°C/70°F or cooler).
To prevent overheating and pressure build-up, never allow the Magic Bullet® to run more than one minute at a time. Ingredients can overheat, building pressure inside the cup that may cause the cup to burst, which may result in possible personal injury or property damage.
Never blend carbonated liquids or effervescing ingredients (e.g., baking soda, baking powder, yeast, cake batter, etc.). Built-up pressure from released gases can cause the cup to burst resulting in possible personal injury or property damage. If the machine is left to run for longer than a minute, friction from the rotating extractor blades can heat ingredients and build pressure inside of the sealed cup. If your cup is warm to the touch, stop the machine immediately and allow cup to cool completely. To open, point the cup away from your body and slowly untwist the lid.
After blending the ingredients, allow the contents to settle and release any pressure that may have built up during the extraction process by slowly unscrewing the cup from the blade assembly. Point the cup away from you as you open it, in case there is any built-up pressure.
If the motor stops working, unplug the motor base and let it cool down for at least 15 minutes before attempting to use it again. Your Magic Bullet® has an internal thermal breaker that shuts off the unit when it overheats. Letting the thermal breaker cool down should allow the motor base to reset.
Do not allow blended mixtures to sit in a sealed cup for long periods of time! Sugar in fruits and vegetables can ferment, causing pressure to build up and expand in the cup. This can cause ingredients to burst and spray out when moved or opened. If you do not plan to consume the contents immediately, seal your cup with the Magic Bullet® stay-fresh resealable lid. Periodically unscrew the lid to release internal pressure if storing longer than a few hours.

CROSS BLADE SAFETY
Cross blades are sharp! Handle carefully.

Use care while handling the cross blades. Do not touch the cross-blade edges to avoid injury.
AVOID CONTACT WITH MOVING PARTS! To reduce the risk of severe personal injury, keep hands and utensils out of and away from the cross blade while blending food. To reduce risk of personal injury or property damage, make sure the cross blade is securely hand-tightened onto the cup before placing it on the motor base and operating the Magic Bullet®.

Never store the cross blade in the motor base without a cup attached. The exposed blades can present a very dangerous hazard.

To prevent leakage and/or property damage, always make sure your cross blade is undamaged and the gasket is completely seated in the cross blade before each use. Leakage may cause residue buildup and damage the motor base. Contact Customer Service 1 (800) 523-5993 for assistance if any component is damaged or loose, or if you have any questions.
Once you have ﬁnished using your Magic Bullet®, wait to remove the cup/cross blade assembly from the motor base until the motor comes to a complete stop and the unit powers down completely. Taking the cup off the unit prior to complete power down can cause damage to the cross-blade coupling and/or motor gear.

Never run the Magic Bullet® without food or liquid ingredients in any of the cups.

Your Magic Bullet® is not intended to be an ice crusher. Attempting to crush ice may cause permanent damage to the cross blades or cause the unit to malfunction, resulting in personal injury or property damage.

CUP SAFETY

To avoid leakage, do not overfill the cup! Make sure your ingredients and liquid do not exceed the MAX line. The Cyclonic Action® of your Magic Bullet® requires room to operate effectively. Exceeding the MAX line can result in leakage and may create dangerous pressurization which can cause the vessel and blade assembly to separate.
Periodically inspect your Magic Bullet® components for damage or wear that may impair proper function. Discontinue use and replace components if you detect cracking crazing or cloudiness, or other damage to the plastic cups, tabs
(on the side of the cup), or the motor base. You may purchase new cups and cross blades at getmagicbullet.com or by contacting Customer Service. We recommend replacing your cross blade and cups every 6 months or as needed for optimal performance.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Do not use this product in locations with different electrical speciﬁcations, or plug types or with any type of plug adapter or voltage converter device. Doing so may result in ﬁre, electric shock, personal injury, or product damage. Use of adapters and converters or use in locations with different electrical speciﬁcations or plug types is considered an unauthorized modiﬁcation of the and will therefore void the warranty.
The use of attachments, including canning jars, is not recommended and may cause ﬁre, electric shock, personal injury, or product damage and will void the warranty.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, never immerse the cord, plug, or motor base in water or other liquids which can conduct an electrical current.
Always POWER OFF and UNPLUG the Magic Bullet® when it is not in use, and BEFORE assembling, disassembling changing accessories, or cleaning.
Periodically inspect the cord, plug, and machine for damage. Do not operate the Magic Bullet® if its cord or plug is damaged. Cease the operation of the Magic Bullet® if it has been dropped or damaged, or if it malfunctions in any manner (including making a louder-than-normal or abnormal sound when blending).
Do not use the Magic Bullet® outdoors or in inclement weather.
Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of the table or counter.
Do not pull, twist, or damage the power cord.
Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces, including the stove.

POLARIZED PLUG INFORMATION:

This appliance has a polarized plug (one prong is wider than the other) to reduce the risk of electric shock. This plug will correctly ﬁt in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not ﬁt fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not ﬁt, contact a qualiﬁed electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way, as doing so will void the warranty.
The plug of your Magic Bullet® features important markings that render it unsuitable for replacement. If damaged, please contact Customer Service for assistance in obtaining a replacement motor base.

VENTILATION SAFETY

The motor base features ventilated openings on the bottom to ensure reliable motor operation and prevent overheating. To prevent a ﬁre hazard, make sure that these openings remain unobstructed by dust, lint, or other materials. Never place your Magic Bullet® on top of ﬂammable items such as newspapers, tablecloths, napkins, dishtowels, placemats, or other similar materials.
CAUTION! Always operate the Magic Bullet® on a level surface, leaving unobstructed space beneath and around the motor base to permit proper air circulation.

IMPORTANT MICROWAVE SAFEGUARDS

Do not place any of the Magic Bullet® parts in a microwave, oven, or stove-top pot or immerse in boiling water as this may result in damage.

MEDICAL SAFETY

The information contained in this User Guide is not meant to replace the advice of your physician. Always consult your physician regarding health and nutrition concerns.

MEDICATION INTERACTIONS:

If you are taking any medication, especially cholesterol medication, blood thinners, blood pressure drugs, tranquilizers, or antidepressants, please check with your physician before trying any of the recipes.
Avoid blending the following seeds and pits, as they contain a chemical known to release cyanide into the body when ingested: apple seeds, cherry pits, plum pits, peach pits, and apricot pits.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

Cleaning the Magic Bullet® is easy. Simply place any of the parts (except for the motor base and cross blade) on the top rack of the dishwasher or hand wash with warm, soapy water and rinse.

HERE’S HOW TO CLEAN THE MAGIC BULLET®

STEP 1: ALWAYS POWER OFF and UNPLUG the motor base from the outlet when it is left unattended, before assembling, disassembling, changing accessories or approaching parts that move in use or when cleaning. Do not attempt to handle the appliance until all parts have stopped moving!
STEP 2: Make sure the blending cup/cross blade is not attached to the motor base.
STEP 3: Clean the individual components (motor base, cross blades, Magic Bullet® blending cups).

MOTOR BASE:

To avoid the risk of injury, NEVER use your hands or utensils to clean the White Actuator Tabs while the Magic Bullet® is plugged in.
NEVER submerge the motor base in water or put in the dishwasher.
Do not remove the rubber or plastic liners inside the motor base.
Use a sponge or dish cloth dampened with warm soapy water to wipe down the inside and outside of the motor base until clean.
Pay particular attention to the actuator tabs on the inside of the motor base to loosen any stuck or sticky debris from drips and spills. If necessary you may use a small brush to scrub the area to ensure it is kept clean.

CROSS BLADES:

Do not remove the gasket as this may permanently damage the cross blade and cause leakage. If after washing as indicated additional disinfecting is desired, you may rinse with a 10% vinegar/water solution. If, over time, the gasket becomes loose or damaged, you may order a new cross blade at getmagicbullet.com or contact Customer Service for a replacement cross blade.
Dry the cross blades completely. It is helpful to turn the blade on its side in your dish drainer to ensure BOTH SIDES of the cross blade are completely dried.
We recommend replacing your Magic Bullet® cross blade every 6 months or as needed for optimal performance.
To order replacement cross blades, simply visit: getmagicbullet.com.

BLENDING CUPS

(CUPS, LIDS, AND LIP RINGS):

These items are all TOP RACK dishwasher safe. We recommend rinsing them and giving them a quick brush with a dish brush to remove any dried debris before washing them in the dishwasher. NEVER use the sanitize cycle to wash the blending cups as this may warp the plastic.
Regularly check the tabs (3) on the sides of the cups for damage (cracking, crazing, breakage, or rounding).
If the tabs are damaged, discontinue use and replace them immediately to prevent possible personal injury.

Load the ingredients into the cup (do not exceed the MAX line)
Twist on the cross blade until the blade and cup are tightly sealed.
Line up the tabs on the cup and with the tabs on the motor base. Press the cup down onto the base to turn on the machine.
