17. WARNING: When processing hot liquids:
• The 2-part latching lid must be securely in place. This allows steam to escape
naturally, and will prevent the lid from coming off when the machine is turned on.
• Do not start on HIGH speed. Always start hot liquids on LOW speed then switch
to HIGH speed while the machine is running.
• Use caution with hot liquids. Spraying from under the lid plug can occur,
or escaping steam may cause scalding.
• Do not process hot liquids with the Vita-Mix non-latching lid.
Save These Safety Instructions
Enjoy the safety of this grounded appliance. The Vita-Mix blender’s U.S. power cord
comes equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard three-
prong wall outlet (Figure A). This cord will vary for countries outside the United States.
Adapters (Figure B) are available for two-prong outlets. Do not cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the plug or power cord.
Consult your electrician if you are not sure if the wall outlet is grounded through the
building wiring. With a properly grounded two prong wall outlet, ground the machine by
attaching the tab on the adapter to the wall outlet cover by means of the screw in the
center of the cover (Figure B).
