IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS & CAUTIONARY INFORMATION
FOR YOUR SAFETY, CAREFULLY READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR
NUTRIBULLET BALANCE.
Electrical Safety
When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be observed,
including the following:
• Caution! To avoid risk of electric shock, never immerse the power cord, plug, or power
base of blender in water or other liquids.
• THE USE OF ATTACHMENTS, INCLUDING CANNING JARS, NOT RECOMMENDED OR
SOLD BY THE MANUFACTURER MAY CAUSE FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY
AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
• This appliance has important markings on the plug blade. The attachment plug or entire cord
set is not suitable for replacement. If damaged, the appliance should be replaced.
• DO NOT USE THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE WITH ANY TYPE OF ADAPTOR OR
VOLTAGE CONVERTER DEVICE. IT IS MANUFACTURED IN COMPLIANCE WITH US
AND CANADIAN ELECTRICAL STANDARDS AND PLUG TYPES.
• USE OF ADAPTERS AND CONVERTERS IS CONSIDERED AN UNAUTHORIZED
MODIFICATION OF THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE AND AS SUCH WILL VOID THE
WARRANTY. USE OF THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE IN AREAS WITH DIFFERENT
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO IT.
• UNPLUG THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE. MAKE SURE THE
POWER BASE IS UNPLUGGED BEFORE ASSEMBLING, DISASSEMBLING, ADDING
ADDITIONAL PARTS, OR CLEANING.
• Do not pull, twist, or damage the power cord.
• Do not allow the power cord to hang over the side of the counter or table.
• Do not allow the power cord to touch hot surfaces, including stove.
• Periodically inspect the power cord and plug for signs of damage. Never operate any
appliance with a damaged power cord or plug. If the NutriBullet Balance malfunctions or
is dropped, or damaged in any manner, discontinue use and contact Customer Service for
further assistance.
• At all times, avoid contact with moving parts.
• Keep hands and utensils away from the cutting blade while chopping or blending food to
reduce the risk of severe personal injury or damage to the device. A scraper may be used, but
only when the blender/food chopper is not running and the NutriBullet Balance is unplugged.
• NEVER LEAVE THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE UNATTENDED WHILE IT IS IN USE.
• CLOSE SUPERVISION IS NECESSARY WHEN USED BY OR NEAR CHILDREN.
• TO PREVENT OVERHEATING, NEVER ALLOW THE MOTOR TO RUN FOR MORE THAN
ONE MINUTE AT A TIME, AS IT CAN CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE MOTOR.
IF THE MOTOR STOPS WORKING, UNPLUG THE POWER BASE AND LET IT COOL
FOR AN HOUR BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO USE IT AGAIN. YOUR NUTRIBULLET
BALANCE HAS AN INTERNAL THERMAL BREAKER THAT SHUTS OFF THE UNIT WHEN
IT OVERHEATS. THE POWER BASE WILL RESET WHEN THE UNIT IS UNPLUGGED AND
THE THERMAL BREAKER COOLS DOWN.
• To reduce the risk of injury and leakage, make sure the blade base is securely screwed
onto the cup before placing it on the Power Base and operating the NutriBullet Balance.
• Do not use NutriBullet Balance outdoors. Do not allow the NutriBullet Balance to be
exposed to inclement weather elements such as rain or other wet conditions.
• NEVER PUT YOUR HANDS OR UTENSILS NEAR THE MOVING BLADE and never use
your hands or utensils to press the activator buttons down while the NutriBullet Balance
is plugged in.
• BLADES ARE SHARP. USE CARE WHILE HANDLING THE BLADES AND DO NOT TOUCH
THE BLADE EDGES TO AVOID INJURY.
• NEVER INSERT THE BLADE INTO THE POWER BASE WITHOUT FIRST ATTACHING
THE CUP.
• Check gasket to make sure it is completely seated in the cross blade before each use.
• The NutriBullet Balance is not intended for use in microwave ovens. Do not place the
NutriBullet Balance cups, power base or any accessories in a microwave as this may
result in damage to its various parts.
• To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the device, keep hands and utensils
away from the cutting blade.
• Never blend carbonated beverages. Built-up pressure from released gases can cause the
sealed cup to burst, resulting in possible injury.
• To prevent leakage when creating a recipe, ALWAYS make sure that the ingredients do
not extend above the MAX line.
• DO NOT PUT HOT LIQUIDS OR INGREDIENTS IN ANY BLENDING VESSEL BEFORE
BLENDING. START WITH COOL OR ROOM TEMPERATURE INGREDIENTS. HEATED
INGREDIENTS CAN CREATE INTERNAL PRESSURE IN A SEALED BLENDING VESSEL,
WHICH MAY ERUPT ON OPENING AND CAUSE THERMAL INJURY.
• WE RECOMMEND REPLACING YOUR EXTRACTOR BLADE EVERY 6 MONTHS OR AS
NEEDED FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE. TO ORDER A REPLACEMENT BLADE, SIMPLY
VISIT: WWW.NUTRILIVING.COM
• PERIODICALLY INSPECT ALL NUTRIBULLET BALANCE COMPONENTS FOR DAMAGE
OR WEAR THAT MAY IMPAIR PROPER FUNCTION. DISCONTINUE USE AND REPLACE
CUPS IF YOU DETECT CRACKING, CRAZING, OR CLOUDINESS OR DAMAGE TO THE
PLASTIC OR ANY ACTUATOR.
• CAUTION! Friction from the rotating blade can cause ingredients to heat and generate
internal pressure in the sealed vessel. Do not continuously operate for more than
one minute. If the vessel is warm to touch, allow it to cool before carefully opening it
pointed away from your body.
• Extract for no longer than 1 minute. If more extraction is needed, wait 1 minute, then
repeat the extraction process in 1 minute intervals up to three times as needed to
achieve the desired consistency. If more than three 1-minute extractions are needed,
allow the Power Base to cool for 2-3 minutes after the third extraction before beginning
the next round.
• Never permit any blended mixture to sit inside a sealed vessel without first releasing
internal pressure.
• Do not allow blended mixtures to sit for long periods of time in a sealed container. The
sugars in the fruit and vegetables can ferment, creating gas and causing pressure to
build up and expand in the vessel which can cause ingredients to burst and spray out
when moved or opened.
• Never use the NutriBullet Balance to blend ingredients without adding liquid in as doing
so may damage the blade.
• The cyclonic action of your NutriBullet Balance requires the use of liquids to make NutriBlasts
and other nutritious beverages. The NutriBullet Balance is not intended to be used as an ice
crusher, and not without liquids. To make a delicious cold NutriBlast, we suggest that you use
frozen fruit and chilled liquids. Alternatively, you may add crushed ice, up to 25% of the total
cup volume, with water or other liquid filled up to the “MAX” line. Do not crush ice or other
hard items without liquid, as such prolonged use over time may dull or damage the blades.
Always inspect your blades before each use.
• To stop the motor, twist the cup to release it from the lock mode, and at the same time, press
the cup/blade assembly down and wait for the motor to power down completely.
• Never remove the cup and blade assembly from the power base until the motor comes to a
complete stop. Removing the cup/blade assembly while the power base is still running may
cause damage to the blade coupling or motor gear.
• The Smart Nutrition Sensor includes a delicately calibrated scale. Handle with care. If it
is dropped or jarred, it may impact the calibration causing it not to connect or detect the
placement of the cup. If this occurs, please contact customer server for assistance.

Cleaning Safeguards
• RINSE BLADES (AND CUPS) IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE TO PREVENT DEBRIS FROM
DRYING AND STICKING TO VESSELS — IF NECESSARY, USE A DISH BRUSH TO
LOOSEN ANY DEBRIS.
• HAND WASH ONLY WITH MILD DISH SOAP AND ROOM TEMPERATURE WATER (NOT HOT).
• DRY IMMEDIATELY.
• FOR TOUGH DEBRIS, FILL THE CUP ½ FULL WITH WARM (NOT HOT), MILD SOAPY
WATER. THEN, SIMPLY TWIST ON THE BLADE, POP IT ON THE BASE AND GIVE IT A RUN
FOR 30-45 SECONDS. FOLLOW UP WITH A QUICK BRUSH.
• DO NOT PUT THE BLADES IN THE DISHWASHER AS ELEVATED TEMPERATURES CAN
DAMAGE GASKETS. SIMPLY HAND WASH WITH WARM, MILD SOAPY WATER.
• THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE CUPS CAN BE WASHED ON THE TOP RACK OF THE
DISHWASHER USING THE NORMAL (NOT SANITIZE) CYCLE. THE NUTRIBULLET
BALANCE CUPS AND BLADES SHOULD NOT BE IMMERSED IN BOILING WATER FOR
ANY REASON AS THIS WILL WARP THE PLASTIC AND DAMAGE THE GASKET.
• WHEN WASHING BLADES, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE GASKET RING.
SIMPLY HAND WASH THE BLADES IN WARM, MILD SOAPY WATER. ATTEMPTED
REMOVAL OF THE GASKET MAY PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE BLADE
CONFIGURATION AND CAUSE LEAKAGE.
CLEANING THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE
Everyone hates cleaning up, which is just one more reason the NutriBullet Balance is such
a wonderful time saver.
WARNING:
• ALWAYS UNPLUG THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE WHEN CLEANING
OR ASSEMBLING.
Cleaning the NutriBullet Balance is so easy… simply place any of the pieces (except for
the Power Base, Smart Nutrition Sensor, and blades) on the top shelf of the dishwasher or
hand wash with warm soapy water and rinse.
WARNING:
DO NOT WASH THE BLADES IN THE DISHWASHER. THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE CUPS
CAN BE WASHED IN THE DISHWASHER BUT ONLY ON THE TOP RACK USING THE
NORMAL (NOT SANITIZE) CYCLE. THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE CUPS AND BLADES
SHOULD NOT BE IMMERSED IN BOILING WATER FOR ANY REASON AS THIS WILL
WARP THE PLASTIC AND DAMAGE THE GASKETS.
Stubborn Cleanup
If ingredients dry inside the NutriBullet Balance, make your cleanup a snap by filling the cup
about 2/3 full with room temperature soapy water and screw on the Extractor Blade. Place
the cup assembly on the NutriBullet Balance, power base for about 20-30 seconds. This will
loosen the stuck ingredients, and with a light scrub, you’ll be all done.
CLEANING THE NUTRIBULLET BALANCE POWER BASE & SCALE
For the most part the power base doesn’t really get dirty, but if you neglect to twist the
blade on to the cup tightly, liquids can leak out and get into the base and activator buttons.
If this happens please use the following cleaning instructions.
Step 1: The most important thing is to UNPLUG the power base before cleaning!
Step 2: Make sure the blade is not attached to the power base.
Step 3: Remove the Smart Nutrition Sensor from the power base.
Step 4: Wipe the Smart Nutrition Sensor with a damp cloth until clean.
Step 5: Wipe the well in the bottom of the power base with a damp cloth until clean.
Step 6: Replace the Smart Nutrition Sensor by lining up the arrow on the Disc to the
arrow in the well of the power base. Gently press down until the disc is level.
