Container:
Ounces, cups, and milliliters
are clearly marked.
2-Part Lid:
The 2-part Lid is easy to
put on and take off and easy to clean.
Always use the lid and the lid plug when
the machine is in operation.
CAUTION:
Lids and tampers are
not interchangeable between different
container styles, types, and sizes.
Snap the lid onto the container and leave
in place for a few minutes. Once the lid
has been left on the container, it will be
much easier to lock or remove.
Lid Plug:
Insert through the lid and
secure by turning clockwise. Remove
the lid plug to use the tamper or add
ingredients.
To Lock the Lid in Place:
Position lid on
container with lid flaps midway between
the spout and the handle. Push the lid
onto the container until it locks in place.
The lid must always be secured when
processing, especially hot liquids that
may scald.
Never operate the blender
without checking to make sure the lid is
securely locked in place.
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.
Automatic Overload Protection:
Your Vitamix motor is designed to
protect itself from overheating. If the
motor shuts off, follow these instructions:
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.
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. They are
flexible, and return to position after the
cord is lifted out.
