If purchased outside the U.S.A. or Canada, contact your local Vitamix dealer.
GFI circuit breakers might be installed in your kitchen. Look for them in outlets near sinks. If the blender won’t operate, unplug the blender. Reset the wall outlet or circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker continues to trip, unplug the blender from the outlet. Allow the blender to sit for 24 hours before attempting to use it again. Contact Vitamix Customer Service if the problem persists.
Alteration or modification of any part of the blender, including the use of any part or parts that are not genuine authorized Vitamix parts, may cause fire, electric shock, or injury and will void your warranty.
The use of attachments not expressly authorized or sold by Vitamix for use with this blender, including canning jars, may cause fire, electric shock, or injury. Use in this way will void your warranty.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, in or on a heated oven.
Keep hands and utensils out of container while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the blender. A rubber scraper or spatula may be used, but only when the blender is not running.
The tamper provided must be used only when the main part of the lid is in place.
Blades are sharp. Clean around the blade assembly in the container with extreme care to avoid injury. To reduce the risk of injury, never place a blade assembly on the motor base unless assembled to the Vitamix container.
Care should be taken when handling the sharp cutting blades, emptying the container and during cleaning.
Do not leave foreign objects, such as spoons, forks, knives or the lid plug, in the container as this will damage the blades and other components when starting the blender and may cause injury.
Never attempt to operate with damaged blades.
Never attempt to operate with the centering pad removed.
Always operate blender with lid and lid plug firmly in place. The lid plug should be removed only when adding ingredients and when using the tamper.
When blending hot liquids or ingredients in the 48 oz. container, use caution; spray or escaping steam may cause burns. Do not fill container to the maximum capacity. Always begin processing on the lowest speed setting, variable speed 1. Keep hands and other exposed skin away from lid opening to prevent possible burns.
To avoid injury and damage, keep hands and utensils, other than the tamper provided,
out of container while blending. The cover must remain in place when using the tamper through the lid plug opening. A utensil may be used in the container only when the it has been removed from the motor base.
DO NOT use your 20 ounce cup or 8 ounce cup to heat ingredients or to blend hot liquids. Heated ingredients and liquids may create internal pressure which could cause the cup to burst and cause injury.
DO NOT continuously use your machine for more than 2 minutes with the 20 ounce cup or 45 seconds for the 8 ounce cup.
If a cup becomes warm to the touch or steams or vents, immediately stop blending ingredients and turn off or unplug blender.
When making nut butters or oil-based foods, do not process for more than one minute after the mixture starts to circulate in the container. Processing for longer periods can cause overheating.
Make sure that the container or cup and blade base are flush with the centering pad to ensure that the drive spline is engaged with the drive socket before operating.
Make sure to use the seal on the blade base and tighten the cup adequately to the blade base before blending.
Never place the blending adapter onto the blade base without the cup attached.
