If your Vitamix shut down while blending, it is likely it temporarily overheated. Sometimes the machine may emit a burning odor and/or stop temporarily because its thermal protector sensed that the machine was close to overheating. If this occurs, we recommend turning the power switch off for up to 45 minutes, allowing the machine to cool down or reset. To avoid overheating your machine in the future, be sure to ramp the machine up to the highest speed within five seconds of turning it on to activate the cooling fan in the motor.
If you have not done so already, please try to power your Vitamix on today to see if it has regained power. If not, we suggest attempting to power the Vitamix on using an outlet in a different room, as this may sometimes be required to reset it.
If you’ve tried the above steps and your machine is still without power, please call us at 1-800-848-2649, so we can offer immediate assistance.
So far this workhorse is worth the money! Our household whips up thick smoothies 3 to 4 times a week and our last blender just couldn’t take it any longer. I knew it was time to finally invest in something that could plow through ice and frozen fruit without risk of burning up. I am thoroughly impressed at the power of the blender and hope it will last for years to come.
