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. 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 10 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.
