The use of attachments not expressly authorised or sold by Vitamix for use with this blender, including
preserving jars, may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
10.
DO NOT use your 0.6-litre cup to heat ingredients or to blend hot liquids. Heated ingredients and liquids
may create internal pressure which could cause the cup to burst and cause injury.

DO NOT continuously use your machine for more than 75 seconds with the 0.6-litre cup. If a cup becomes
warm to the touch or steams or vents, immediately stop blending ingredients and turn off or unplug the
blender. Allow the cup and ingredients to cool to room temperature before removing the blending adapter.
12.
DO NOT use the 0.6-litre or 1.2-litre container, blade base, seals or lids in the microwave.
13.
When blending hot liquids or ingredients in the 1.2-litre container, spray or escaping steam may cause
scalding and burns. Keep hands and other exposed skin away from the lid opening to prevent possible
burns.
14.
If your machine is equipped with a variable-speed functionality, always start at lowest speed setting.
15.
DO NOT use the appliance for purposes other than its intended use.
16.
DO NOT fill the containers beyond the maximum capacity. The 1.2-litre container should not be more than
two thirds full (0.75 l) when the tamper is used during blending.
17.
DO NOT use outdoors.
