Automatic Overload Protection
Your Vitamix machine is equipped with automatic overload protection. This built-in feature is designed to
protect the motor and prevent your machine from overheating. When engaged, the automatic overload
protection will cause the motor to stop and possibly emit a light odour. If the motor stops, turn the variable-
speed control back to the stop symbol (O) and let the blender sit for 45 minutes to cool.
Do not fill the 1.2-litre container more than two thirds full (approximately 0.8 l) when blending thick texture
recipes (i.e. hummus or nut butters). This allows room at the top of the container to use the tamper, to add
liquid to the blend if necessary and will reduce the chances of overheating the unit.
Interlock Protection
Refer to page 7 for examples of the blender needing to be reset if the interlock is not properly engaged.
