IMPORTANT NOTES!
NOTE: The thermal protector may have shut the machine o. If the motor shuts o, press
the On/O switch to O. Turn the power switch On after 5 minutes to check if blender is
reset and ready to operate. The blender might require up to 45 minutes to reset. Cooling

the process, try circulating the air with a vacuum or fan aimed at the bottom of the base.
When the thermal protector shuts o the motor, review your processing techniques and
your instructions.
Your recipes may be too thick (add liquid), be processed for too long at too low a speed
setting, or have too much material in them. If the motor seems to be overheating but
the thermal protector has not turned the machine o, stop the machine and remove the
container from the base.
