STUBBORN CLEANUP
If ingredients dry inside the NutriBullet Rx Cups or SouperBlast Pitcher, make your
cleanup a snap by filling the cup about 2/3 full with warm soapy water and screw
on the Extractor Blade and if using the SouperBlast Pitcher, put on lids. Place the
cup assembly on the NutriBullet Rx Power Base for about 20-30 seconds. That will
loosen the stuck ingredients, and with a light scrub and rinse, you'll be all done.
CLEANING THE NUTRIBULLET POWER BASE
For the most part the Power Base doesn't really get dirty, but if you neglect to twist the
blade on to the cup tightly, liquids can leak out and get into the base and
activator buttons.
Here's how to clean it up.
Step 1: The most important thing is to depress the power button and UNPLUG the
Power Base before!
Step 2: Use a damp rag to wipe down the inside and outside of the Power Base.
• NEVER SUBMERGE THE POWER BASE IN WATER OR PLACE IT IN
THE DISHWASHER.
• Never put your hands or utensils near the moving blade and never use your
hands or utensils to press the activator buttons down while the Power Base
is plugged in.
