PARTS AND FEATURES
To Remove the Lid: Lift up on one lid flap while holding the container securely.
To Remove the Lid Plug: Rotate the lid plug counterclockwise from the “locked” to “unlocked”
position and lift out.
Container: Ounces, cups, and milliliters are clearly marked. A second dry blade container is available
for purchase to grind grain and knead bread dough. The blade is marked “D.” Grinding grains will
cloud the lower three inches (8 cm) of the container.
Tamper: The tamper allows you to accelerate
the process of very thick and/or frozen mixtures
that cannot be processed in a regular blender. Using the tamper maintains circulation by preventing
air pockets from forming. While the machine is running, and only through the lid plug opening, use the
tamper to press ingredients into the blades as you make frozen ice creams and nut butters, or purée
fruits and vegetables. Refer to “How to Use the Tamper” on page 10.
Automatic Overload Protection: Your Vitamix motor is designed to protect itself from overheating. If
the motor shuts off, follow these instructions:
• 120 Volt machines: Turn off the power switch for
up to 45 minutes to reset. Reset time will be
extended if high room temperatures exist.
To reduce the reset time, unplug the machine,
remove the container, and blow air into the
center section of the bottom with a hair dryer
on the cool setting.
• 220 Volt machines: 220/240 motors are equipped
with a reset button. If the motor shuts off, press the
black reset button on the bottom of the machine.
On/Off Switch: The On/Off (or Power) Switch is on the
right-hand side of the machine base. The On/Off Switch
controls the power to the machine. The machine will not
run when the On/Off Switch is in the Off position.
Power Cord: Your machine is equipped with a long power
cord. Store the unused portion neatly underneath.
Bottom View / Cord Wrap: Plastic cord retainers hold
the cord securely. There is no need to unscrew the cord
retainers to let out more cord. They are flexible, and
return to position after the cord is lifted out.
