Important safeguards

To avoid the risk of serious injury, carefully read all instructions before operating your nutribullet^®. When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be observed, including the following important information.
Save these instructions!
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance shall not be used by children. Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children.
Children shall not play with the appliance.
Appliances can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and if they understand the hazards involved.
Do not use outdoors.
NEVER LEAVE THE NUTRIBULLET^® UNATTENDED WHILE IT IS IN USE.
ALWAYS UNPLUG THE NUTRIBULLET^® WHEN NOT IN USE.

HEAT & PRESSURE SAFETY

Always use extreme care and attention when blending hot liquids or hot ingredients. The release of thermal energy from the ingredients and friction from the rotating blades (during the blending process) can further heat and pressurize the mixture. Only operate with vented lid securely attached.
Allow blender to cool before assembling or disassembling parts and before cleaning the appliance.

Use extra caution when blending hot liquids and ingredients in the pitcher.
Never turn the power on while using the pitcher without the vented lid cap inserted and locked into the pitcher lid, as ingredients can splash and if hot or warm, could potentially cause thermal injury or property damage.

Steam and splattering ingredients can escape through the pitcher lid, potentially scalding and/ or burning the user. NEVER blend hot liquids or ingredients in your pitcher without the pitcher lid and vented lid cap attached and locked. The vented lid cap allows steam and pressure to escape, while guarding against excess splashing.
Before blending hot ingredients, carefully examine the pitcher lid to make sure the vent slots are not obstructed or blocked.
When blending hot liquids, add liquid and solid ingredients to your pitcher below their respective MAX lines. Attach the pitcher lid with the vented lid cap inserted and locked. Press POWER and begin blending
by selecting the desired program or if you are using manual speeds, start blending on the LOW setting. Once ingredients are integrated, adjust speed as needed.

If the nutribullet^® blends for longer than one minute, friction from the blades can cause ingredients to heat and generate internal pressure inside the vessel. If a blending vessel becomes warm to the touch, turn off the machine and allow the vessel to cool completely before carefully opening, pointed away from your body to avoid injury.

BLADE SAFETY

Blades are sharp! Handle carefully. Use car when handling any blade. To avoid laceration injury, do not handle or touch any blade edge.
AVOID CONTACT WITH MOVING PARTS! Keep hands and utensils out of and away from blades while blending food to reduce the risk of severe personal injury. Only use the provided pusher to direct ingredients to the blades.

After blending, turn the unit off. Wait to remove the pitcher from the motor base until the blades come to a full stop and the unit powers down completely. Taking the vessel off the unit prior to complete power down can cause damage to the blade coupling or motor gear.Never use the nutribullet^® Smart Touch Blender™ without adding liquid, as doing so may damage the blades.
The cyclonic action^® of your nutribullet^® Smart Touch Blender™ requires the use of liquids to make smoothies and other nutritious items. The nutribullet^® Smart Touch Blender™ is not intended to be used without liquids, or as an ice crusher. ALWAYS ADD LIQUID to your recipe.
DO NOT USE the nutribullet^® Smart Touch Blender™ for grinding dry ingredients such as grains, cereal, or coffee, as this may damage the motor and blade.

PITCHER SAFETY

Pitcher lid must be locked onto the pitcher in order to operate the unit.
With recipes that require certain ingredients to be incorporated during blending, first add the base ingredients, seal the pitcher lid with vented lid cap attached, and begin blending. Then, once the ingredients are well mixed, twist open the vented lid cap and carefully pour or drop ingredients into the mixture. If your blended mixture is hot or warm, use caution when opening the vented lid cap. Open the vented lid cap slowly.
Keep hands and utensils, other than the pusher provided, out of container while blending to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the blender. The cover must remain in place when using the pusher through the cover opening. A scraper may be used but must be used only when the blender is not running.
If you need to push ingredients closer to the blade, ONLY USE THE Pusher PROVIDED with the nutribullet^® Smart Touch Blender™ configuration. DO NOT use any apparatus other than the pusher to push ingredients toward the blade. The pusher is specifically designed not to come in contact with the blade. Spatulas, spoons and other tools can make contact with the blade, which may result in damage to the machine, damage to property, and possible injury.
NEVER USE YOUR FINGERS OR ANY PART OF YOUR HAND TO PUSH INGREDIENTS DOWN TOWARD THE BLADE. Only use the provided pusher.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Do not use this product in locations with different electrical specifications or plug types. Do not operate with any type of plug adapter or voltage converter device, as these may cause electrical shorting, fire, electric shock, personal injury, or product damage.

The use of attachments, including canning jars, is not recommended and may cause fire, electric shock, personal injury, or product damage and will void the product's warranty.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, never immerse the cord, plug, or motor base of the nutribullet^® in water or other liquids. Discontinue use if the cord, plug, or motor base is damaged.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
