Automatic Overload Protection

Motor shuts off, possibly with a slight odor.

Solutions:

Press the reset button on the bottom of the motor base. Reduce the load, process for shorter durations, or use a lower speed.

Container Marring/Discoloration

Container becomes cloudy or discolored.

Solutions:

This is often cosmetic and does not affect performance. Use a separate container for grinding if discoloration is a concern.

Food Not Circulating

Ingredients are not blending properly and remain stuck.

Solutions:

Remove the lid plug (while keeping the lid secured) and use the tamper to release the air pocket. Reduce the speed if necessary.

Lid Not Secure

Blender will not operate.

Solutions:

Ensure the lid is securely snapped onto the container until it locks. The lid flaps should be midway between the spout and handle.

Machine Won't Start

Blender does not power on.

Solutions:

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Test the outlet with another appliance. If the problem persists, contact Vitamix customer service.

Retainer Nut Loosening

Retainer nut at the bottom of the container loosens.

Solutions:

Do not continue use. Contact Vitamix customer service for assistance.

Tamper Touching Blades

Tamper makes contact with the blades.

Solutions:

Verify you are using the correct tamper for your container model. If not, order the correct tamper from Vitamix.
