Programmable Model
The basic settings of the program dial for the Vitamix XL™ Programmable Model
are detailed below. These programs, numbered 1 through 6, are blending cycles
designed for the most common blending applications. Selecting one of the pre-set
programs will run the machine for a full cycle. The machine will stop by itself when
the cycle is complete. A cycle varies in speed and length. Your machine's pre-set
options may differ due to program revisions or if your machine was programmed
specifically for your business.

Vitamix XL™ Blender Instructions (All Models)
1. Place liquids and soft foods in the container first. Placing wet ingredients towards
the blades helps to start the vortex that allows the other ingredients to be pulled
into the blades. Although not necessary for processing, cutting or breaking food
into smaller pieces (1 to 3 in. / 3 to 8 cm) allows for more precise measuring of
ingredients. Thawed or partially-thawed fruit is recommended. The highest speed is
recommended for heavy-duty blending.
2. Set the container on the motor base by aligning it over the centering pad anchored
to the base (Motor must be completely stopped before positioning container).
Containers are not to be used for hard, dry materials. Avoid running your machine
with the container empty.
3. Always use a lid when blending. If blending hot ingredients, the lid must be securely
latched in place. When processing hot liquids, do not use a non-latching or one-piece lid.
4. To achieve the best blend, always make sure you fill the 1.5 gal. / 5,6 L container
to the 48 oz. / 1,4 L level or higher with ingredients. If finished volume is less than
48 oz. / 1,4 L, use the Advance® container.
5. Plug the machine into the nearest outlet (if unplugged).
6. Follow instructions based on the specific model:
Vitamix XL™ Programmable Model: Press the On/Off power switch to on.
Activate a program by selecting the desired setting on the dial.
• Push down on the Start/Stop switch.
• To prevent possible splashing, lightly rest your hand on the lid while
turning the machine on (except when processing hot liquids or mixtures).
• Until you become accustomed to the speed, watch your mixture
carefully to avoid over-blending.
