Error Codes – If you see an error code on the display, make a note of the numbers on the display after the error code. Call Vitamix Customer Services or your distributor for
help with the issue.
Motor – The motor is designed to protect itself from overheating. If the blender will not start immediately check to make sure that you have plugged in the unit and that the
On/Off switch is On. If the motor has overheated, allow the motor to cool for 20-45 minutes.
Tips to prevent 'overloading' your blender:
• Only process Vitamix recipes when learning to use the blender.
• Do not process recipes at lower speeds than recommended.
• Do not process recipes at higher speeds than recommended.
• Do not process recipes for longer than recommended.
• Use your tamper to process thicker mixtures and keep ingredients moving around and through the blades.
Tamper – Lids and tampers are not interchangeable between different container styles, types and sizes. Use the tamper that was supplied with your blender.
The container should not be more than two-thirds full when the tamper is used during blending. To avoid overheating, DO NOT use the tamper for more than
30 consecutive seconds.
