*TIPS:
• Top blades are needed to power through tough ingredients like ice, solid fruits and vegetables. If silky smooth results are desired, push the power toggle down to turn off the unit. Carefully remove the top blades by lifting from the shaft, replace the lid and press the power toggle up to continue processing with only the bottom blades.
• For softer ingredients, the bottom fixed blades are enough to fully process in one step.
• Use the single serve cup for great results when making individual portions of smoothies or other drinks.
• The single serve cup is also great for chopping and creating salad dressings!
• The single serve cup only operates at one speed regardless of which number is chosen on the dial. Press down on the “Start/Stop/Pulse” toggle in short intervals until you have reached your desired consistency.
• Always use the Dough/Discs setting on the dial when mixing dough or using either disc.
• When chopping, pulse for the perfect chop.
• When using the chopping blade, start the Variable Speed Dial at a low speed and gradually increase to desired speed.

Care & Maintenance
HOW TO CLEAN
CAUTION: Make sure that the motor base is
unplugged from the power source before inserting or removing any attachment and before cleaning.
CAUTION: DO NOT immerse the motor base into
water or any other liquid.
1 Separate/remove all parts from each other. 2 Clean the motor base with a damp cloth and wipe
dry.
3 Place the pitcher, bowl and single serve cup in the
dishwasher. Place the lids and attachments on the top rack. Use caution when handling the
blade assemblies as the blades are very sharp. Always hold the top blades and chopping blade by the shaft.
NOTE: You may also wash the containers by
filling ¾ of the container with warm water and a drop of dish washing detergent, placing the lid or single serve blade assembly on and pressing the pulse button a few times. Once clean, remove the container from the motor base. Rinse the pitcher, bowl, single serve cup and lids under running water. Allow all the parts to dry before storing.
HOW TO STORE 1 Store the Ninja Ultima
System upright with the pitcher on the motor base, top blades inside the pitcher and lid on the pitcher. Store the Chopping blade in the 1.8 L bowl with the lid on the bowl. Store the discs and dough blade in a secure location.
RESETTING THE MOTOR THERMOSTAT The Ninja Ultima
System features a unique safety system which prevents damage to the unit’s motor and drive system should you inadvertently overload your appliance. If the appliance is being overloaded, the motor will stop. To reset the appliance, follow the resetting procedure below:
1 Unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet. 2 If using the top blades or the chopping blades,
carefully remove them by the shaft, ensuring that no food is jamming the top or bottom cutting blades.
CAUTION: The blades are extremely sharp - handle
with care! Always hold the top blades and
chopping blades by the shaft.
3 Allow the appliance to cool for approximately 15
minutes.
4 Re-install the container onto the base, carefully
re-insert the top blades (if using) and re-plug the appliance into the electrical outlet.
NOTE: Ensure that the blades are seated properly
by standing the blades upright in the jar. If the blades are not seated properly on the star-shaped post, carefully check the underside of the top blade assembly to ensure there’s no food in the way. Rinse if necessary. Do not operate if the top blades are not upright at any time.
5 Proceed to use the appliance as before, making
sure not to exceed the recommended maximum capacities.

Troubleshooting Guide
PROBLEMS POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS
Motor doesn’t start or attachment doesn’t rotate.
Make sure the pitcher, bowl or single serve cup is securely placed on motor base.
Make sure the lid is securely on pitcher in the correct position (align arrows).
The appliance is turned “Off”. Turn the Variable Speed Dial to the desired speed setting, press up on the power toggle and press the Start toggle switch up to turn “On”.
Check that the plug is securely inserted into the electrical outlet.
Check the fuse or circuit breaker.
The unit has overloaded. The appliance will stop and the power indicator light will flash. Unplug and wait approximately 15 minutes before using again.
The unit has overheated. Unplug and wait approximately 15 minutes before using again.
Food is unevenly chopped.
Food is chopped too fine or is too watery.
Food collects on lid or on the sides of the container.
You cannot achieve snow from solid ice.
Variable speed won’t work on my single serve cup.
The unit won’t stop blinking although everything seems to be assembled properly.
You are chopping too much food at one time. Use short pulses for best results.
The food has been over processed. Use short pulses for best results.
The mixture is too thick. Add more liquid. Start at a low speed and slowly increase to high for best results.
Do not use ice that has been sitting out or has started to melt. Use ice straight from the freezer. Pulse for best results.
The single serve cup only operates at one speed regardless of which number is chosen on the dial. Press down on the “Start/Stop/Pulse” toggle in short intervals until you have reached your desired consistency.
Unit is overfilled. Reduce amount being processed and restart.
