important safeguards.
when operating your magic bullet®, remember:
safety comes first.
Warning! To avoid the risk of serious injury, carefully read all instructions
before operating your magic bullet®. When using any electrical
appliance, basic safety precautions should always be observed,
including the following important information.
!
Save these instructions!
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND THOROUGHLY BEFORE OPERATING.
general safety
information:
• This appliance shall not be
used by children. Keep the
1
appliance and its cord out
of reach of children.
• Children shall not play with
the appliance.
• Appliances can be used by
persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge
if they have been given
supervision or instruction
concerning use of the
appliance in a safe way
and if they understand the
hazards involved.
• NEVER LEAVE THE MAGIC
BULLET® UNATTENDED
WHILE IT IS IN USE.
• Do not use your magic
bullet® for anything other
than its intended use.
heat & pressure safety:
DO NOT BLEND HOT OR
CARBONATED INGREDIENTS!
• Never put hot or
carbonated ingredients in
any of the cups before or
while blending. Heated
ingredients can cause
pressure to build up in the
sealed cup, causing
possible expulsion of hot
ingredients which may
cause personal injury or
property damage. Start
with room temperature or
cooler ingredients
(21°C/70°F or cooler).
2
• To prevent overheating and
pressure build up, never
allow the magic bullet® to
run more than one minute at
a time. Ingredients can
overheat, building pressure
inside the cup that may
cause the cup to burst, which
may result in possible
personal injury or property
damage.
• Never blend carbonated
liquids or effervescing
ingredients (e.g., baking
soda, baking powder, yeast,
cake batter, etc.). Built-up
pressure from released
3
gases can cause the cup to
burst resulting in possible
personal injury or property
damage.
warning: If the machine is
left to run for longer than a
minute, friction from the
rotating extractor blades
can heat ingredients and
build pressure inside of the
sealed cup. If your cup is
warm to the touch, stop
the machine immediately
and allow cup to cool
completely. To open,
point the cup away from
your body and slowly
untwist the blade.
• After blending ingredients,
allow the contents to settle
and release any pressure
that may have built up
during the blending process
by slowly unscrewing the
cup from the blade
assembly. Point the cup
away from you as you open
it, in case there is any builtup pressure.
• If the motor stops working,
unplug the motor base and
let it cool down for at least
15 minutes before
attempting to use it again.
Your magic bullet® has an
internal thermal breaker
that shuts off the unit when it
overheats. Letting the
thermal breaker cool down
should allow the motor base
to reset.
• Do not allow blended
mixtures to sit in a sealed
cup for long periods of time!
Sugar in fruits and vegetables
can ferment, causing
pressure to build up and
expand in the cup. This can
cause ingredients to burst
and spray out when moved
or opened. If you do not plan
to consume the contents
immediately, seal your cup
with the magic bullet® stay-
4
fresh resealable lid.
Periodically unscrew the lid
to release internal pressure if
storing longer than a few
hours.
cross blade safety:
CROSS BLADES ARE SHARP!
HANDLE CAREFULLY.
warning: Use care while
handling the cross blade.
Do not touch the cross blade
edges to avoid injury.
AVOID CONTACT WITH
MOVING PARTS! To reduce
the risk of severe personal
injury, keep hands and
5
utensils out of and away
from the cross blade while
blending food.
To reduce risk of personal
injury or property damage,
make sure the cross blade is
securely hand-tightened
onto the cup before placing it
on the motor base and
operating the magic bullet®.
NEVER STORE THE CROSS
BLADE IN THE MOTOR BASE
WITHOUT A CUP ATTACHED.
THE EXPOSED BLADES CAN
PRESENT A VERY
DANGEROUS HAZARD.
• To prevent leakage and/or
property damage, always
make sure your cross blade
is undamaged and the
gasket is completely seated
in the cross blade before
each use. Leakage may
cause residue buildup and
damage the motor base.
Contact Customer Service by
visiting nutribullet.co.uk for
assistance if any component
is damaged or loose, or if
you have any questions.
• Once you have finished
using your magic bullet®,
wait to remove the cup/
cross blade assembly from
the motor base until the
motor comes to a complete
stop and the unit powers
down completely. Taking the
cup off the unit prior to
complete power down can
cause damage to the cross
blade coupling and/or
motor gear.
NEVER RUN THE MAGIC
BULLET® WITHOUT FOOD OR
LIQUID INGREDIENTS IN ANY
OF THE CUPS.
• Your magic bullet® is not
intended to be an ice
crusher. Attempting to
6
crush ice may cause
permanent damage to the
cross blade or cause the
unit to malfunction resulting
in personal injury or
property damage.
• Keep hands out of the cup
while blending to reduce the
risk of severe injury to
persons or damage to your
magic bullet®. A scraper or
spatula may be used, but
must be used only when the
blender is not running.
cup safety:
• To avoid leakage, do not
overfill the cup! Make sure
your ingredients and liquid
do not exceed the MAX line.
The Cyclonic Action® of your
magic bullet® requires room
to operate effectively.
Exceeding the MAX line can
result in leakage and may
create a dangerous
pressurization which can
cause the vessel and blade
assembly to separate.
• Periodically inspect your
magic bullet® components
for damage or wear that
7
may impair proper function.
Discontinue use and replace
components if you detect
cracking, crazing or
cloudiness, or other
damage to the plastic cups,
tabs (on the side of the cup),
or the motor base. You may
purchase new cups and
cross blades at nutribullet.
co.uk or by contacting
Customer Service. We
recommend replacing your
cross blade and cups every
6 months or as needed for
optimal performance.

Using the magic bullet.
®
Using the magic bullet® is as easy as 1, 2, 3:
1 Before first use, review all warning and caution statements in the
Important Safeguards section (pages 1–12). Clean Blending Cups and
Cross Blade with hot, soapy water before use.
4 Line up the tabs on the Cup
and with the tabs on the Motor
Base. Press the Cup down
onto the base to turn on the
machine.
2 Load the ingredients into
the Cup (do not exceed the
MAX line).
13
3 Twist on the Cross Blade until
the blade and Cup are tightly
sealed.
Here’s how it works: The
magic bullet® will blend for
as long as you press the Cup
down onto the Motor Base. To
stop blending, simply release
pressure on the Cup.
“Lock-on” mode:
For hands-free operation, press
down and gently turn the Cup
clockwise until the tabs lock under
the lip of the Motor Base. Once you
are in lock-on mode, the motor will
run continually (do not run for
longer than a minute!). To stop
blending, simply twist the Cup
counter-clockwise to release.
14
caution:
Before using the Cross Blade, check
the gasket to make sure it is not
damaged and it is completely seated in
the Cross Blade Unit before each use.
Never put your hands or utensils near
the moving Cross Blade and never use
your hands or utensils to press the
activator buttons down while the
Motor Base is plugged in.
If the Cross Blade stops spinning while
in lock on mode, immediately unplug
the magic bullet®. Hard ingredients like
carrots or celery can get stuck in the
Cross Blade and stop it from turning. If
this happens, unplug the magic bullet®
right away. Remove the blade/cup
assembly from the Motor Base, and
give ingredients a good shake to
unblock the Cross Blade. If the Cross
15
Blade still remains obstructed, twist
the Cross Blade attachment off of the
Cup and carefully spin the metal
blades using a utensil (not your fingers)
to release the blockage. Reattach the
Cross Blade to the Cup, plug in the
magic bullet® and try again. It should
spin normally.
Never run the magic bullet for more
than one minute at a time, as it can
cause permanent damage to the
motor. If the motor stops working,
unplug the Motor Base and let it cool
for a few hours before attempting to
use it again. Your magic bullet® has an
internal thermal breaker that shuts the
unit off when it overheats. Letting the
thermal breaker cool down should
allow it to reset.
®
