NutraMilk BRNMC2L Series Nut Processor
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following:
- READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
- Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
- To avoid injury, never place cutting blade on base without first putting the bowl properly in place.
- Keep hands, as well as spatulas and other utensils, away from moving blades while processing food to prevent the possibility of severe personal injury or damage to the food processor. A plastic scraper may be used but must be used only when the food processor is not running.
- To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put base in water or other liquid.
- Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
- Always unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, before removing food from bowl and before cleaning. To unplug, grasp plug and pull from electrical outlet. Never pull cord.
- Avoid contacting moving parts. Never insert food while machine is operating.
- Make sure motor has completely stopped before removing the lid. If the machine does not stop instantly when you turn the lid, do not use it.
- Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after appliance has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
- The use of attachments is not recommended as this may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
- Do not use outdoors.
- Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
- Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism.
- Be certain cover is securely locked in place before operating appliance.
- Cutting blade must be properly installed before adding any ingredients. Failure to do so may result in injury and or damage to the NutraMilk machine.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.
EXTENSION CORDS
A short power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power- supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,
- The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and
- The extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
- The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over, snagged, or pulled on unintentionally (especially by children).
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded while in use.
CAUTION : To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock,
connect to properly grounded outlets only.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In North American markets, the appliance has a plug that looks like Figure A. DO NOT attempt to insert a power cord into an incompatible outlet. Appliance damage, electrical system damage or physical harm may result. An adaptor, as shown in Figure B, should be used for connecting a 3-prong grounding plug to a 2-wire receptacle. The grounding tab, which extends from the adaptor, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded receptacle as shown in Figure C, using a metal screw.
Warning: It is best to use this appliance on a dedicated circuit or with all other appliances off during this appliance’s use. It will not damage electrical systems but caution should be used to not overload this circuit with other appliances running at the same time.

Notes:
- Before plugging the NutraMilk machine into a wall outlet, check that the electrical circuit is not overloaded with other appliances.
- If the LCD displays “Er” or “Or” when any function button is pressed, the components have not been assembled correctly. Unplug the unit and re-assemble its components.
Making Alternative Butter:
- Ensure that the cutting blade is properly positioned.
- Fill the inner filter (5) with your preferred nut or seed (Illus. C).
- If you intend to make alternative milk from this butter, the minimum amount of ingredients is 1 cup.
- If you intend to make alternative butter, a minimum 2 cups of ingredients are required. Refer to our Recommended Ratios & Processing Times chart on
- Note: Ensure that your nuts or seeds are fully dry. The butter function will not work properly with added moisture from either rinsing or soaking.
- Press the BUTTER button (Illus. D) and then the START/STOP button (22) (Illus. E) to begin the process of making butter.
- The default BUTTER time is 16 minutes. To increase the desired time, press the UP button (17). To decrease the desired BUTTER time, press the DOWN button (18).
- The UP and DOWN buttons (17 & 18) increase or decrease time by one minute.
- Maximum possible BUTTER time is 25 minutes.
