VENTILATION SAFETY
To prevent a fire hazard, the openings on the bottom of the power base should be free of dust or lint and
never obstructed as they are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable motor operation to prevent
overheating. Never place your NutriBullet on top of flammable materials such as newspapers, tablecloths,
napkins, dishtowels, place mats or other similar type of materials. Always operate the NutriBullet on a level
surface, leaving unobstructed space beneath and around the power base to permit proper air circulation.
HEAT AND PRESSURE SAFETY
•
DO NOT BLEND HOT INGREDIENTS OR LIQUIDS! Always start with room temperature or cooler
ingredients (21°C or less). Never put hot ingredients or hot liquids in any closed-top blending cup/
pitcher before or while blending. The heat from the ingredients could cause pressure to build up in
sealed cups causing possible expulsion which may cause personal injury or property damage.
•
NEVER ALLOW THE NUTRIBULLET
TO RUN MORE THAN ONE MINUTE at a time as it may result
®
in the contents overheating which can increase the pressure and may cause the container to burst,
resulting in possible personal injury or property damage. If you need to blend for longer, blend for
1-minute intervals allowing power base to shut off completely in between for 15 seconds. After 3
consecutive 1-minute intervals allow contents to settle for 2-3 minutes before continuing if necessary.
NutriBullet MAX and Rx are equipped with SMART Technology, a pre-programmed Autocycle which
automatically switches off the device after optimal extraction. This function can also be activated manually
by pressing the G-button within 5 seconds after the start of blending and ensures the contents are first
pulsed a few times before extraction starts.
•
The NutriBullet has an internal thermal breaker that shuts off the motor when it overheats. Unplug the
power base and let it cool down for an hour or more before using it again. The power base will reset
when the thermal breaker has cooled down sufficiently.
•
Never blend carbonated liquids or ingredients (i.e., baking soda, yeast etc.). Pressure from released
gases can cause the blending cup or blade to burst and resulting in possible injury.
•
Don't allow blended mixtures to sit in a sealed cup for long periods of time! Sugar in fruits and
vegetables could ferment. If you do not plan to consume your drink immediately, remove the blade
and use a lid to close the cup. Remember to periodically release pressure that may have built up due to
fermentation by carefully unscrewing the lid. Built up pressure can cause ingredients to burst and spray
out when opened.
•
After blending, allow the contents to settle and release any pressure that may have built up during the
extraction process by slowly unscrewing the cup from the blade assembly. Have the cup pointed away
from your body!
•
NEVER touch the gears of the blade and the coupling in the basic unit with your hands, as the blending
will make them hot.
NOTE when making nut butters or oil-based foods:
Due to its consistency the food will stick to the sides of the cup during processing. Proceed in 20-30 second
increments only by simply lifting the cup off the power base between intervals. Tap the cup in
combination with opening it to scrape down the ingredients to the center before continuing to process the
next increment. Allow your NutriBullet to cool down for 10 minutes after 4-5 cycles to prevent overheating
and damaging the unit.
BLADE SAFETY
to reduce the risk of personal injury or property damage
•
Blades are sharp! Use care while handling the blades, do not touch the edges.
•
Avoid contact with moving parts! Keep hands and utensils out of and away from the blade while
blending food. A scraper may be used, but only when the appliance is not running.
•
Always inspect your blades before each use.
NutriBullet blend blades are especially designed for blending and available for all models. NutriBullet
milling blades are available for Magic Bullet and 600-series only and ideal for turning dry ingredients into
powders, e.g. milling oats, coffee beans, cereals, sugar and crunching herbs, nuts and seeds.
