Automatic Overload Protection
Your Vitamix machine is equipped with a special feature: Automatic Overload Protection. This built-in
feature is designed to protect the motor and prevent your machine from overheating. When engaged, this
Automatic Overload Protection will cause the motor to shut off and possibly emit a light odor.
If your Automatic Overload Protection should ever be activated, refer to page 8 in this manual to easily
reset your machine.

•
Do not process recipes at higher speeds than recommended
