GENERAL SAFETY
INFORMATION
• This appliance is not
intended for use by persons
(including children) with
reduced physical, sensory,
or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they
are closely supervised and
instructed concerning use of
the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
Close supervision is necessary
when any appliance is used
by or near children. Children
should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
• Do not use outdoors.
 NEVER LEAVE THE
NUTRIBULLET® UNATTENDED
WHILE IT IS IN USE
 ALWAYS UNPLUG THE
NUTRIBULLET®WHEN NOT
IN USE
HEAT & PRESSURE SAFETY
• Always use extreme care and
attention when blending hot
liquids or hot ingredients. The
release of thermal energy
from the ingredients and
friction from the rotating
blades (during the blending
process) can further heat
and pressurize the mixture.
Only operate with vented lid
securely attached.
• Allow blender to cool before
assembling or disassembling
parts and before cleaning
the appliance.
Use extra caution when
blending hot liquids and
ingredients in the pitcher.
Never turn the power on
while using the pitcher
without the vented lid
cap inserted and locked
into the pitcher lid, as
ingredients can splash
and if hot or warm, could
potentially cause thermal
injury or property damage.
Important safeguards.
Warning! To avoid the risk of serious injury, carefully read all
instructions before operating your NutriBullet®. When using any
electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be
observed, including the following important information.

opening, pointed away from
your body to avoid injury.
BLADE SAFETY
Blades are sharp! Handle
carefully. Use care when
handling any blade. To
avoid laceration injury, do
not handle or touch any
blade edge.
AVOID CONTACT WITH
MOVING PARTS! Keep
hands and utensils out of
and away from blades
while blending food to
reduce the risk of severe
personal injury. Only use the
provided tamper to direct
ingredients to the blades.
• After blending, turn the
unit o. Wait to remove the
pitcher from the motor base
until the blades come to a
full stop and the unit powers
down completely. Taking the
vessel o the unit prior to
complete power down can
cause damage to the blade
coupling or motor gear.
Never use the NutriBullet®
Smart Touch Blender™
without adding liquid, as
doing so may damage
the blades.
• The cyclonic action®of your
NutriBullet®Smart Touch
Blender™ requires the use
of liquids to make smoothies
and other nutritious items.
The NutriBullet®Smart Touch
Steam and splattering
ingredients can escape
through the pitcher lid,
potentially scalding and/
or burning the user. NEVER
blend hot liquids or
ingredients in your pitcher
without the pitcher lid and
vented lid cap attached and
locked. The vented lid cap
allows steam and pressure
to escape, while guarding
against excess splashing.
Before blending hot
ingredients, carefully examine
the pitcher lid to make
sure the vent slots are not
obstructed or blocked.
When blending hot liquids,
add liquid and solid
ingredients to your pitcher
below their respective MAX
lines. Attach the pitcher
lid with the vented lid cap
inserted and locked. Press
POWER and begin blending
by selecting the desired
program or if you are using
manual speeds, start blending
on the LOW setting. Once
ingredients are integrated,
adjust speed as needed.
If the NutriBullet®blends
for longer than one minute,
friction from the blades can
cause ingredients to heat and
generate internal pressure
inside the vessel. If a blending
vessel becomes warm to the
touch, turn o the machine
and allow the vessel to cool

grinding dry ingredients such
as grains, cereal, or coee, as
this may damage the motor
and blade.
PITCHER SAFETY
• Pitcher lid must be locked onto
the pitcher in order to operate
the unit.
• With recipes that require
certain ingredients to be
incorporated during blending,
first add the base ingredients,
seal the pitcher lid with vented
lid cap attached, and begin
blending. Then, once the
ingredients are well mixed,
twist open the vented lid cap
and carefully pour or drop
ingredients into the mixture.
If your blended mixture is hot
or warm, use caution when
opening the vented lid cap.
Open the vented lid cap slowly.
• Keep hands and utensils,
other than the tamper
provided, out of container
while blending to reduce the
risk of severe injury to persons
or damage to the blender.
The cover must remain in
place when using the tamper
through the cover opening.
A scraper may be used but
must be used only when the
blender is not running.
• If you need to push ingredients
closer to the blade, ONLY USE
THE TAMPER PROVIDED with
the NutriBullet®Smart Touch
Blender™ configuration.
DO NOT use any apparatus
other than the tamper to push
ingredients toward the blade.
The tamper is specifically
designed not to come in
contact with the blade.
Spatulas, spoons and other
tools can make contact with
the blade, which may result
in damage to the machine,
damage to property, and
possible injury.
• NEVER USE YOUR FINGERS
OR ANY PART OF YOUR HAND
TO PUSH INGREDIENTS
DOWN TOWARD THE BLADE.
Only use the provided tamper.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY

adapter or voltage converter
device, as these may cause
electrical shorting, fire,
electric shock, personal
injury, or product damage.
• The use of attachments,
including canning jars, is
not recommended and may
cause fire, electric shock,
personal injury, or product
damage and will void the

• Avoid blending the following
seeds and pits, as they contain
a chemical known to release
cyanide into the body when
ingested: apple seeds, cherry
pits, plum pits, peach pits, and
apricot pits. Fruit pits may also
cause damage to the pitcher.
ADDITIONAL
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
PROPER USAGE .
• TO AVOID LEAKAGE, DO NOT
OVERFILL THE PITCHER!
Your pitcher is marked
with two MAX lines: one for
solid ingredients (higher
line) and one for liquids
(lower line). When filling the
blender, make sure your
ingredients do not exceed
their respective MAX lines.
Exceeding either MAX line
can result in leakage, and
may lead to dangerous
pressurization, which can
cause the vessel and blade
assembly to separate,
potentially resulting in
personal injury and/or
property damage.
• The pitcher is specific to the
exact model of NutriBullet®
Smart Touch Blender™ you
possess. Use of incompatible
parts (parts from other
models) may result in
damage to your NutriBullet®

tablecloths, napkins, dish
towels, place mats or other
similar type materials.
• CAUTION! Always operate
the NutriBullet®Smart Touch
Blender™ on a level surface,
leaving unobstructed space
beneath and around the motor
base to permit proper air
circulation. Vents on the bottom
of the product are provided for
ventilation to ensure reliable
motor operation and to
prevent overheating.

Care & maintenance.
• Do not attempt to remove any
pieces from the motor base.
• Use a sponge or dish cloth
dampened with warm soapy
water to wipe down the
motor base until clean.
• To clean leakage residue
from the motor base, wipe
with a damp sponge and
warm water.
• If necessary, you may use
a small brush to scrub the
actuator system area to
ensure it’s clean.
WARNING: Never submerge
the motor base in water.
NUTRIBULLET®PITCHER:
WARNING: Blades are sharp!
Use caution when cleaning
the pitcher.
• The pitcher is top-rack
dishwasher-safe. We
recommend rinsing and
briefly scrubbing it with a
dish brush to remove any
remaining debris before
placing in the dishwasher.
NEVER use the sanitize cycle
to wash the pitcher — heat
this high can warp the plastic.
• If preferred, hand-wash the
pitcher with soap and water.
Stuck-on ingredients might
require extra scrubbing
Here’s how to clean
the NutriBullet®:
STEP 1:
The most important thing —
ALWAYS POWER OFF THE UNIT
and UNPLUG the motor base
from the power outlet when it
is not in use. Do not attempt to
handle the appliance until all
parts have stopped moving!
This includes during assembly
and disassembly, while
changing accessories during
cleaning, and any time you
leave the machine unattended.
STEP 2:
Detach the pitcher from the
motor base.
STEP 3:
Clean the individual
components (motor base,
pitcher) as recommended on
the following pages.
MOTOR BASE:
• To avoid risk of injury, NEVER
attempt to clean the actuator
system on the motor base
while the NutriBullet®Smart
Touch Blender™ is plugged in.
