WARNING
Rotating Blades Can Cause Severe Injury.
• DO NOT put hands, spatulas, etc. in the container while the machine is running or while the container is still on the base.
• Lids and tampers are not interchangeable between dierent container styles, types, and sizes. Use the tamper that was
supplied with your machine. If you do not have the correct tamper for your container, contact your local Vitamix dealer
or distributor.
IMPORTANT:
• The splash disk (near the top of the tamper) and lid prevent the tamper from hitting the
blades when the lid is secured properly in the locked position.
• The container should not be more than two-thirds full when the tamper is used during
blending.
• To avoid overheating during blending, DO NOT use the tamper for more than
30consecutive seconds.
• If the food does not circulate, carefully remove the lid plug while making sure the lid stays
firmly in place. Release the contents by inserting the tamper through the lid plug opening.
• Holding the tamper straight down may not help the ingredients circulate. If necessary,
point the tamper toward the sides or corners of the container. DO NOT try to force the
tamper deeper into the container.
HOW TO USE THE TAMPER

Tamper Splash Disk

Lid
1. Load the container before placing it on the motor base. Place liquids and soft foods in the container first, solid items and ice last.
Although not necessary for blending, you may want to cut or break food into smaller pieces for more precise measuring of ingredients.
Take proper care when handling and processing hot ingredients and making hot soups and sauces.
2. Securely fasten the 2-part lid. Always use the complete 2-part lid when blending (unless the tamper is inserted through the lid plug
opening). Especially when blending hot ingredients, make sure the lid is securely latched.
3. With the motor o, set the wet blade container on the motor base by aligning it over the centering pad. Do not attempt to put a
container on an operating motor base or to operate a motor base without a container properly in place.
4. Total Nutrition Center, Total Nutrition Center S, Aspire and Pro-200 Models -
Start with the High/Variable Switch in the Variable ( )
position. Always start your machine on Variable Speed 1. Activate the machine by turning the On/O Switch to On (|) then slowly
increase to the desired speed on the Variable Speed Dial.
Pro-500 and Total Nutrition Center 3 Models -
Start with the Variable Speed Dial pointed at the Stop Symbol ( ). Move the On/O
switch to the On position. Use the Variable Speed dial to select the desired speed setting or program.
5. If the mixture stops circulating, insert the tamper through the lid plug and stir until it “burps.” If this does not work, press the On/O
switch to stop the motor. Remove the container from the motor base, and use a rubber spatula to press the air bubble away from the
blades. Return the container to the motor base, replace the lid, and continue blending.
6. Due to the machine’s speed, processing times are much quicker than standard appliances. Use carefully to avoid over processing.
7. After turning the machine o, wait until the blades completely stop before removing the lid or container from the motor base.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
Never Start on Speeds Above 1 with Hot Liquids to Avoid Possible Burns.
Escaping steam, splashes or contents may scald.
To secure the contents, lock the lid and lid plug securely in place prior to operating the machine.
Always start on Variable 1, slowly increase to 10.
Important when using the Dry Blade Container:
Grinding dry material for more than two minutes could damage your machine. Regular use may result in cosmetic marring of the container
and cause the blades to become dull over time. Grinding some herbs may release oils, causing the container to discolor permanently. Others
have strong odors that may linger in the container, affecting the flavor of other foods. The grinding of some herbs and spices may also cause
the blade to dull over time, or the container to crack.
