CARING FOR YOUR MACHINE
IMPORTANT NOTES!
CLEANING PRODUCTS: Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or concentrated bleach when
cleaning. Use the cleaning products and rinse aids specifically recommended by Vita-Mix.
CLEANING: Switches may become sticky from use. Unplug the machine and use a wet cloth,
moistened with water and a mild detergent, to clean around the edges of the switch paddles until
they function freely. Work the switches back and forth a few times to loosen any dried residue under
switch. Leaving switches sticky will damage or burn out the switches. Clean carefully, using caution
not to allow water or other liquids to infiltrate the switch. Dry with a soft cotton cloth.
CONTAINER: Do not let mixtures, liquids and food products dry in the container. Rinse throughout
use. Dry product may lock around the blade and weaken/tear the bearings seal when restarted. Do
not place containers in the freezer. Extremely low temperature combined with hot ingredients and/or
the immediate rapid action of the blade may crack the container. Follow the cleaning instructions on
page 13.
