TROUBLESHOOTING

Automatic Overload Protection

Your Vitamix machine is equipped with a special feature: Automatic Overload Protection. This built-in feature is designed to protect the motor and prevent your machine from overheating. That means peace of mind for you as a Vitamix owner. When engaged, this Automatic Overload Protection will cause the motor to shut off and possibly emit a light odor.

If your Automatic Overload Protection should ever be activated, refer to page 8 in this manual to easily reset your machine.

Tips to prevent “overloading” your Vitamix machine:

•Process only Vitamix recipes when learning to use the machine

•Do not process recipes at lower speeds than recommended

•Do not process recipes at higher speeds than recommended

•Do not process recipes longer than recommended

•Use your tamper to process thicker mixtures and keep ingredients moving around and through the blades

Retainer Nut Loosening

In the event that the retainer nut at the bottom of your container loosens and no longer securely holds the blade assembly in place, DO NOT CONTINUE TO USE THE CONTAINER. Call Vitamix Customer Service at 1-800-848-2649 or 1-440-235-4840, or your local dealer immediately for instructions.

Variable Speed Reset

If the Variable Speed Function is not working and the blades only rotate at the lowest speed (Variable Speed 1) the blender must be reset.

To reset the machine and reactivate the Variable Speed Function:

1.Switch the Start/Stop Switch to Stop ().

2.Turn the Variable Speed Dial back to 1.

This will reset the Variable Speed Function. When you move the Start/Stop switch to the Start position, you will have full use of all variable speeds.
