NutriBullet Immersion Blender 800W
Hold I for low speed or II for high speed and release the button to stop; the Variable Speed Dial adjusts I only, and the guide describes manual speeds rather than automatic programs.
- With power disconnected, attach the blending arm or whisk holder by pushing the motor body into it and turning clockwise to lock. For chopping, secure the S-blade on the bowl’s centre pin, load food, lock the lid and attach the motor body clockwise. Keep ingredients below MAX and leave at least 100 mm of headroom at the top of every vessel you blend in.
- Put the blending arm or whisk upright into the mixture before pressing a button; keep it below the surface to avoid splashing and keep the motor body dry. Keep fingers and utensils away from the attachment.
- Hold I for low speed or II for high speed. While using I, turn the Variable Speed Dial to fine-tune speed; you can also set the dial before pressing I. The dial only works with the low-speed button.
- For the whisk, use low speed I only and hold the button throughout operation. Whisk moist, light mixtures for no longer than 2 minutes.
- For the chopper, use I only; hold the motor body with one hand and the bowl with the other. Avoid chopping hard foods for longer than 5 seconds and do not chop ice, nutmeg, coffee beans or grains.
- Release the held speed button to stop. Wait for complete stillness before lifting the arm or whisk from the mixture or detaching the motor body from the chopping lid. Unplug after use and before changing attachments.
- Set the motor body and attachment on a stable, dry surface. Clean attachments promptly after use, disassemble and store safely; wipe the motor body and chopping-bowl lid. NEVER submerge the main unit in water. Do not immerse the chopping-bowl lid.
Why has the motor stopped while hot?
Release the control, unplug the motor body and allow it to cool for 1 hour before trying again. Do not keep a speed button pressed against a stalled attachment.
How long can I use each attachment?
Run only as long as needed, generally less than 1 minute, and allow at least 5 minutes of cooling between uses. After chopping, let contents settle before opening the bowl away from your body; if the bowl feels warm, let it cool completely first.
The Variable Speed Dial gives a variable speed range of 11,000–16,000 RPM.
NutriBullet EveryGrain Cooker
Press Power, select White Rice, Brown Rice, Oats, Quinoa, Grains or Steam, then press Start/Stop to run the selected cooking program or press it again to cancel.
- Measure grains and water into the Cooking Pot using the appropriate inner marking or the guide’s grain-to-water ratio. Seat the pot level on the inner heating plate; fit the Steaming Basket if needed. Close the Cooker Lid until it clicks.
- Plug in: a beep confirms connection. Press Power; the power light is blue and available cooking programs light white.
- Press White Rice, Brown Rice, Oats, Quinoa or Grains to select an automatic cooking program. The selected button lights fully; press a different program button to change your choice before starting.
- To steam on its own, add a Measuring Scoop of water to the pot and put food in the Steaming Basket. Press Steam; the timer starts at 0:00. Press or hold the up/down arrows to set 1-minute increments, up to 1 hour.
- After selecting a program, press Delay Start if wanted. It initially displays 2:00; use the arrows to change the delay in 15-minute steps, from 15 minutes to 12 hours.
Next steps
- Press Start/Stop to begin the program or the selected delay countdown; cooking starts when the delay reaches 0:00. Press the same button again to cancel the current program.
- Moving lines mean the cooker is working. A cooking program beeps and displays a countdown for its final 10 minutes; Steam preheats for 5–9 minutes before its countdown begins. Keep clear of the hot steam vent.
- At completion, a beep sounds and Keep Warm starts automatically for up to 3 hours; its timer counts upwards to show elapsed time. Press Start/Stop to end Keep Warm; remove tender foods promptly and stir rice within 30 minutes to reduce sticking.
- Press the lid-opening button and lift food out with the Spatula. Wear oven mitts for the hot pot or basket; let the heating plate cool fully before cleaning. NEVER submerge the main unit in water.
Which food belongs on each program?
| Control | Use |
|---|---|
| White Rice | Jasmine, basmati or sushi rice; use the White Rice water marking. |
| Brown Rice | Whole-grain brown rice or brown basmati; use the Brown Rice marking. |
| Oats | Rolled oats: 1 part oats to 2 parts water; steel-cut oats: 1 to 3. |
| Quinoa | All quinoa colours; use the Quinoa marking for the measured amount. |
| Grains | Other grains such as amaranth, farro, spelt, buckwheat or millet; use the guide or packet water ratio. |
| Steam | Steam by itself, or use the basket to steam while a grain program cooks below. |
Why will a selected program not start?
Check the plug connection, press the blue Power button, close and lock the lid until it clicks, then select a cooking or Steam program before pressing Start/Stop.
NutriBullet Food Processor
Press LOW or HIGH for continuous processing, hold PULSE for a short burst and press OFF to stop; the guide describes these speed controls rather than automatic recipe programs.
- Fit one working blade or disc to the Blade Adaptor, then load prepared food for chopping or dough, below LIQUID MAX. Turn the Work Bowl Lid clockwise until its arrow aligns with the handle, put the Food Pusher into the chute and lock the bowl clockwise onto the base until it clicks.
- Plug in and press LOW for continuous low-speed chopping/mixing or HIGH for continuous high speed. A blue light above the selected control shows the active speed.
- Hold PULSE for a high-speed burst; release it to stop. Use short bursts when you want more control over the texture.
- With the Dough Blade fitted, use PULSE to cut small pieces of butter into flour, then LOW to mix and knead just until a loose ball forms. Avoid HIGH for dough. To add liquid, turn the Pusher Cap clockwise, lift out the Inner Pusher and drizzle through the narrow chute without exceeding LIQUID MAX.
- With a slice/shred or spiralizer disc in its higher working position, select HIGH. Feed prepared food through the chute using the supplied pusher, without forcing or overloading it; stop when the bowl fills.
- Press OFF, wait for the blade to stop and unplug before dismantling. Turn the bowl handle anticlockwise and lift it off; unlock the lid anticlockwise, remove the blade/disc and adaptor by their plastic parts, then lift food out with a spatula or spoon.
What does a stop with flashing lights mean?
If the lid unlocks during processing, operation stops and the blue lights flash; switch off, disconnect power and align and relock the lid. If the panel flashes 3 times after continuous use, the 10-minute run limit has been exceeded: unplug and leave the processor off for 15 minutes.
What if the selected control gives no response?
Check that the outlet supplies power, the lid arrow aligns with the handle and the bowl is twisted clockwise until it clicks. Never try to defeat the lid lock.
NutriBullet Chill
Select Ice Cream, Sorbet, Gelato, Smoothie Bowl or Frozen Yogurt and press the centre Start/Stop button to run that program; tap it to pause or resume, or hold it for 2 seconds to cancel.
- Fill the Pint Cup between MIN FILL and MAX FILL, fit its Storage Lid and freeze upright on a level surface for at least 24 hours; set the freezer between −20°C and −15°C. Remove the lid and process within 5 minutes of taking the cup out.
- With the Blade Shaft fully retracted and the blade resting against the Blade Block, secure the Blade Block clockwise onto the cup. Keep the shaft dry, invert the assembly and lower the shaft onto the drive shaft; align the tabs with the base notches, press down and turn clockwise to lock. The programs illuminate.
- Select Ice Cream, Sorbet, Gelato, Smoothie Bowl or Frozen Yogurt, then press the centre Start/Stop button. The chosen program remains lit and the Progress Ring flashes clockwise.
- Allow the selected program to run for approximately 3–4½ minutes. Stops and starts within the program, followed by a pause and quick pulse at the end, are normal; a beep and all 5 progress segments lit mark completion.
- Tap the centre button to pause and tap it again to resume. To cancel and return the blade to its home position, hold the button for 2 seconds.
- Wait until the blade fully stops. Hold the Cup Release button while turning the Pint Cup anticlockwise to remove it, then turn the Blade Block anticlockwise and lift it out carefully. Unplug when finished; never use fingers or your tongue to clear the blade.
- If the top of the finished recipe is dry or crumbly, run a second cycle using Ice Cream to soften it. Process frozen recipes only; do not use the appliance on loose ice, hard ingredients, thawed liquid or an empty cup.
What does each program make?
| Program | Result |
|---|---|
| Ice Cream | Creamy churned ice cream. |
| Sorbet | Fruit-based sorbet. |
| Gelato | Rich Italian-style ice cream. |
| Smoothie Bowl | A scoopable frozen smoothie. |
| Frozen Yogurt | Regular or Greek yogurt with flavours. |
Why is CHECK BLADE solid red with the centre button?
The blade may be incorrectly installed or the shaft may have disengaged. Stop and disconnect power, remove the cup and Blade Block, then pull the shaft until the blade rests against the block. Reinstall gently; if the error occurred during mixing, the recipe may need further processing after the assembly is reset.
Why is the centre button solid red?
The cup may have been removed or the blade may have met a blockage or improper load. Stop and disconnect power, remove the cup and Blade Block, clear the remaining mixture or obstruction and reset the blade against the block. Reinstall the assembly; follow the prompt to tap the home/centre button and reset the blade.
Why is the centre button flashing red?
The shaft may not be home, the motor may have met an excessive load, or no mixture was detected. If the light appears just after assembly, tap the centre button to reset the blade home. After an automatic stop, disconnect power, remove the cup and Blade Block, clear any blockage, reset the blade and refit; keep the recipe above MIN FILL and below MAX FILL.
Why is the whole Progress Ring solid red?
A solid red Progress Ring indicates an internal hardware error. Stop using the appliance and take your claim, with your receipt, to the place of purchase (the manufacturer warranty is 12 months from the date of purchase).
During a program the blade pauses at the top of the cup to change spin direction, then moves back down.
Each program has its own blade path as it lifts and lowers in the Pint Cup, so stops and starts are intended.
NutriBullet Limitless Food Processor
Slide the handle toggle to ON for continuous processing or hold PULSE for bursts, then return to OFF to stop; the guide describes these manual controls rather than selectable automatic programs.
- Install the Chopping Blade before adding food, or fit the reversible Slice/Shred Disc with the required side upwards. Keep liquids below LIQUID MAX. Turn the lid clockwise to align its markings with the handle, then turn the bowl clockwise onto the base until it clicks.
- Plug in and slide the handle’s control toggle to ON. It remains in that position and runs continuously until you move it to OFF.
- Hold the toggle at PULSE for a burst of chopping or mixing. Release it to stop; the toggle returns automatically to OFF.
- When using a disc, start the motor before placing food in the feed chute. Gently guide food with the Food Pusher only, without excessive pressure. Lift the pusher to drizzle additional liquid into the bowl, staying below LIQUID MAX.
- For the Endless Chute, lock the chute clockwise to the base, seat the Slinger Disc, fit the slicing/shredding side upwards and lock the lid. Place a receptacle beneath the outlet before starting; feed food flat-end down with the pusher. The Endless Chute Attachment times out at 120 seconds.
- Slide to OFF and wait for complete stillness; unplug before dismantling. Turn the bowl handle and lid anticlockwise to unlock them, then lift out the blade or disc by its plastic centre and remove food with a spatula or spoon.
What are the recommended processing amounts and times?
| Food | Maximum amount | Suggested processing |
|---|---|---|
| Fruit/vegetables, 2–3 cm pieces | 250 g | 5–10 pulses |
| Sliced/shredded fruit/vegetables | 360 g | 10–20 seconds |
| Meat/seafood, 2 cm pieces | 300 g | 5–10 seconds |
| Cheese, 2 cm pieces | 300 g | 5–10 seconds |
| Herbs | 55 g packed | 5–10 pulses |
| Bread/pizza/cookie dough | 220 g flour + 120 g water | 30 seconds |
| Sliced/shredded cheese | 340 g | 10–20 seconds |
Why is there no response or why did operation stop?
Turn the toggle off and disconnect power. Check the working outlet, align and lock the lid markings, then twist the Work Bowl clockwise until it clicks. A lid that unlocks during operation stops the motor; refit it before resuming.
