Your Vitamix motor is designed to be protected from overheating and overcurrent
conditions during use. Both features will shut off the motor. The motor will
possibly emit a slight odour. Follow the procedures below to reset the motor
for either situation. If you continue to experience problems after following these
instructions, contact your local distributor immediately for instructions.
Overheating Protection Resetting Procedure
If the motor shuts off due to overheating while blending, allow the machine to cool
for 20-45 minutes before beginning another blending cycle. If the motor will not
start after being allowed to cool, perform the Automatic Overcurrent Protection
Resetting Procedure below.
Overcurrent Protection Resetting Procedure
1.
Unplug the unit.
2.
Remove the container.
3.
Turn the motor base on
its side.
4.
Press the reset button on
the bottom of the machine.
5.
Plug unit in and continue
with the blending cycle.
If the blender will not start
immediately, the motor has
overheated. Allow the motor to
cool for 20-45 minutes before
beginning another blending
cycle.
