IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Read all instructions before operating the Magic Bullet.

Do not immerse the cord, plug or base in water or other liquids.

Do not pull, twist or mistreat the power cord.

Avoid contact with moving parts.

The use of attachments or parts not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury and void any applicable warranty.

DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT WITH ANY TYPE OF ADAPTOR OR VOLTAGE CONVERTER DEVICE. THIS UNIT 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 PRODUCT AND AS SUCH VOIDS THE WARRANTY. USE OF THIS PRODUCT IN LOCATIONS WITH DIFFERENT ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE PRODUCT.

UNPLUG THE NUTRIBULLET WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE. MAKE SURE THE MACHINE IS UNPLUGGED BEFORE ASSEMBLING, DISASSEMBLING, ADDING ADDITIONAL PARTS, AND CLEANING.

Keep hands and utensils away from the cutting blade while chopping or blending food to reduce the risk of severe injury to person or damage to the blender/chopper. A scraper may be used, but only when the blender/food chopper is not running.

NEVER KEEP THE BLADE RUNNING 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 a few hours 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 Power Base to reset.

Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or if the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Contact Customer Service for assistance in obtaining a replacement.

Unplug the Magic Bullet when it is not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning or assembling.

Always use your Magic Bullet on a clean, flat, hard, dry surface.

Always completely assemble the blade and cup before placing on the Power Base.

Do not allow the cord to hang over the side of the counter or table.

Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces, including stove.

Never leave the Magic Bullet unattended while it is in use.

Never blend carbonated beverages. Released gases can cause pressure to build up and

the container to burst, resulting in possible injury.

Make sure the blade is securely screwed onto the Tall Cup before placing it on the Power Base.

Never run the Magic Bullet without food or liquid contents in any of the cups.

Close supervision is necessary when any appliances are used by or near children.

To reduce the risk of injury, never place the cutting blade on the Power Base without putting cup or Party Mug properly in place.

Be certain that blade is completely and firmly screwed on to the cups or Party Mug before operating appliance.

Do not use Magic Bullet in the rain or in wet conditions.

Do not use outdoors if exposed to inclement weather elements.

Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.

Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism.

Check gasket to make sure it is not damaged, and it is completely seated in the Cross Blade unit before each use.

Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

Always use your Magic Bullet on a clean, flat, hard, dry surface, never on cloth or paper which may block the fan vents and cause overheating.

Never Blend Hot Ingredients! Always allow ingredients to cool before blending. Heat and blending can cause vessel to pressurize and expel hot contents, resulting in possible injury.

Always completely assemble the blade and cup before placing on Power Base; never insert or store the blade in base unless attached to a cup.

DO NOT PUT THE BLADES IN THE DISHWASHER. SIMPLY HAND WASH WITH WARM SOAPY WATER.

THE MAGIC BULLET CUPS CAN BE WASHED ON THE TOP RACK OF THE DISHWASHER USING THE NORMAL (NOT SANITIZE) CYCLE. THE MAGIC BULLET CUPS AND BLADES SHOULD NOT BE STERILIZED IN BOILING WATER FOR ANY REASON AS THIS WILL WARP THE PLASTIC.

WHEN WASHING BLADES, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE GASKET RING. SIMPLY HAND WASH THE BLADES IN WARM SOAPY WATER. ATTEMPTED REMOVAL OF THE GASKET MAY PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE BLADE CONFIGURATION AND CAUSE LEAKAGE.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

IMPORTANT MICROWAVE SAFEGUARDS

The Magic Bullet has gone BPA Free! All of the recipes that require cooking in the Magic Bullet vessels have been updated to reflect our new BPA free instructions. Because every microwave is different, we now recommend microwaving foods for a maximum of 2-3 minutes, then checking the temperature of the food and continue heating only if the contents of the vessel are not hot enough.

Never heat foods for longer than 2 minutes consecutively. Heat for 2 minutes. Let the food sit for 2 minutes, then heat for 2 minutes again.

Never microwave with the blade or solid lid still attached. Remove the blade or solid lid and twist on a Shaker/ Steamer top.

When microwaving, beware of steam and use an oven mitt to remove hot cups or containers from the microwave.

Do not use Party Mug in the microwave.

Follow the precautions and recommendations found in your microwave oven instruction manuals, specifically the heating times.

Do not use excessive amounts of time when heating water or liquids in the microwave.

Do not over cook food. Carefully attend to appliance when the Magic Bullet Cups are placed inside the microwave while cooking.

Some products, such as whole eggs, may explode and should not be heated using the Magic Bullet cups in the microwave.

Superheated Water – Liquids such as water, coffee, tea or soups are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave is not always present.

This could result in very hot liquids suddenly boiling over when the container is disturbed or a spoon or other utensil (such as a Magic Bullet blade) is inserted into the liquid. To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

Do not overheat the liquid.

Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it to avoid eruption.

After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave for a short time before removing container.

Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensils into the container.

Avoid heating baby food or formula in Magic Bullet cups.

Don’t defrost frozen beverages in Magic Bullet cups (especially carbonated beverages). Even if the container is opened, pressure can build up. This can cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.

Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when removing Magic Bullet cups from the microwave when they contain hot foods and liquids.

To prevent possible injury, always use protective oven gloves and direct steam away from hands and face.

MAGIC BULLET

ASSEMBLY

TALL CUP & SHORT CUP

These cups are used to mix, cook and store your ingredients. They are

dishwasher-safe (top rack only) and microwave-safe.

PARTY MUG AND COMFORT LIP RINGS

The Party Mug* turns your Magic Bullet into the Ultimate Party Machine. You can make and serve frozen party drinks right in the same mug. It even comes with two Comfort Lip Rings to cover the threads.

* The Party Mug is not microwave safe.

POWER BASE

The Power Base is the heart of the Magic Bullet. Simply place one of the Bullet Cups or Party Mug onto the High-Torque Power Base and press. Nothing could be easier.

12

CAUTION: Do not submerge the Power Base in water and always unplug the Power Base before cleaning it. Do not put the blade with the gasket in the dishwasher.

CROSS BLADE

The Magic Bullet comes with one Stainless Steel Cross Blade for chopping, grating and blending foods such as onions, cheeses, meats and frozen drinks.

Do not put the blade in the dishwasher. Simply hand wash with warm soapy water. In the base of the blades, there is a plastic gasket that creates an airtight fit with the Magic Bullet cups. When washing the blades, do not attempt to remove the gasket ring. Attempted removal of the gasket may permanently damage the blade configuration and cause leakage.

STEAMER/SHAKER LID

With its vented holes, the Steamer Lid allows you to safely store hot foods and reheat colder foods in the Magic Bullet cups. The lid can also be used as a shaker lid for grated cheese and spices.

FLIP-TOP LID

The flip-top lid fits right over the Bullet cups to conveniently take and enjoy your favorite beverage recipe anywhere.

STAY-FRESH RE-SEALABLE LID

With the Magic Bullet — your personal, versatile, countertop magician — you can prep, cook and store your food in the very same vessel. No plastic wrap or storage containers are needed to keep your leftovers fresh. Your Magic Bullet comes with

a Stay-fresh Re-sealable Lid that fits right on to the Tall Cup, Short Cup and Party Mug to keep your leftovers fresh for days.

13

USING THE

MAGIC BULLET

Using the Magic Bullet is as easy as 1, 2, 3:

1 Load the ingredients into the

Tall Cup, Short Cup or Party Mug.

2 Twist on the Cross Blade until the blade and cup have a tight seal.

3 Line up the tabs on the cup and with the tabs on the Power Base. Press the cup down onto the base to turn on the machine.

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:

The Magic Bullet will blend for as long as you press the cup down onto the Power Base. To stop blending, simply release pressure on the cup.

CAUTION:

Before using the blade, check the gasket to make sure it is not damaged and it is completely seated in the blade unit before each use.

Never put your hands or utensils near the moving blades and never use your hands or utensils to press the activator buttons down while the Power Base is plugged in.

IF THE BLADE STOPS SPINNING WHILE IN LOCK ON MODE, IMMEDIATELY UNPLUG THE MAGIC BULLET. Hard ingredients like carrots or celery can get stuck in the blade and stop it from turning. If this happens, UNPLUG

THE MAGIC BULLET RIGHT AWAY.

Remove the blade/cup assembly from the Power Base, and give

“LOCK ON” MODE:

For hands-free operation, press down and gently turn the cup clockwise until the tabs lock under the lip of the Power Base. Once you are in Lock On Mode, the motor will run continually. To turn it off, simply twist the cup back counterclockwise and release the cup.

ingredients a good shake to unblock the blade. If the blade still remains obstructed, twist the blade attachment off of the cup and carefully spin the metal blades by hand (they are sharp) to release the blockage. Reattach the 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 Power 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.

THE

CROSS

BLADE

The Magic Bullet Cross Blade is great for:

CHOPPING

Chop veggies like onions and garlic for cooking, or make chunky salsas and bean dips.

BLENDING

Pulverize frozen fruit for smoothies and sorbets, or whip up refreshing frozen cocktails, mocktails, and milkshakes.

MIXING

Fold batters for pancakes, muffins, and quick-breads without dirtying the whole kitchen.

GRATING

Shred hard and soft cheeses, chocolate, or lemon zest to use in your favorite dishes.

PUREEING

Whip up homemade hummus, creamy soups, or homemade baby food in seconds.

GRINDING MEATS

Quickly prepare ground beef and turkey, chicken and tuna salad or gourmet pâtés.

GRINDING COFFEE

Grind whole coffee beans in the bullet for the freshest tasting brews.

MAGIC BULLET

TECHNIQUES

THE “PULSE”

TECHNIQUE

If you’re looking to prepare foods with a chunkier texture in the Magic Bullet, like fresh salsa or chopped onions, you should use the Pulse Technique.

To pulse, simply press the Magic Bullet cup down on the Power Base, then quickly

release. Let the blades come to a complete stop before pulsing again. Two to three pulses will generally yield a coarse, even chop, while more pulses create a finer texture.

THE SECRET

The trick to successful pulsing is to make sure that the machine doesn’t accidentally slip into Lock On Mode. To avoid this, simply use your other hand to apply counter-clockwise pressure on the cup as you pulse.

1 Hold the cup at the base and apply counter-clockwise pressure to it to keep it from locking on.

2 With your other hand, tap the top of the cup and

immediately release. Continue pulsing until you get the consistency you want.

16

17

THE “SHAKE”

TECHNIQUE

This technique is helpful when working with dense ingredients that don’t always distribute evenly when blending. If you

THE “COCKTAIL” SHAKE

When making smoothies, dips or other recipes:

1 Remove the Cup/Blade assembly from the Power Base.

2 Shake it like a cocktail shaker, then return it to the Power Base.

3 Repeat if necessary until you achieve the consistency you want.

THE “SHAKIN’ PULSE”

Use this technique to coarsely chop ingredients for recipes like salsa, gazpacho, and tuna or chicken salad.

1 Before pulsing, lift the whole Magic Bullet (Power Base and blade/cup assembly) with both hands. Make sure one hand grips the cup while the other holds the Power Base.

find the ingredients at the top of the cup aren’t making it to the blade, try one of the following:

2 With force, shake the whole Bullet downwards to force ingredients into the blade. Pulse at the bottom of the shake.

3 Repeat until your food reaches the desired consistency.

THE “TAP” TECHNIQUE

If ingredients are sticking to the sides of the cup, use this technique to move them down to the blade:

1 Take the cup off the Power Base and tap the cup and blade assembly on the counter to force the ingredients down into the blades.

2 Return cup/blade assembly to the Power Base and finish processing.

COOKING

IN THE MAGIC BULLET CUPS

Unlike conventional blenders and food processors, the Magic Bullet doesn’t stop working after ingredients are blended. Not only can you prepare food in the Bullet, you can cook in it as well, allowing you to serve hot soups, rich and hearty pasta sauces,

or delicious melted cheese toppings without dirtying an extra dish, pot, or pan. To safely microwave your food in the Bullet, follow these steps:

1 Blend or pulse your ingredients together.

2 Remove the blade and place the cup in the microwave.

3 Cook until ready, then remove with an oven mitt and serve.

CAUTION: The single most important rule to remember for using the cups in the microwave: Take off the blade! The blades have metal in them and we all know that metal and microwaves don’t mix. Never microwave food using the airtight lids, always leave cups uncovered. Also, remember that the contents and the cup will be hot, so always use an oven mitt.

STORING

LEFTOVERS

IN THE MAGIC BULLET CUPS

The Magic Bullet includes a

Stay-Fresh Resealable Lid that twists directly onto your Magic Bullet cups, allowing you to prep food ahead of time, keep leftovers fresh, or take your meal on the go without dirtying an extra storage container.

EASY

CLEAN-UP

CLEANING THE

MAGIC BULLET

The Magic Bullet doesn’t only quickly prepare food, it also saves a huge amount of cleanup time! This little machine lets you make delicious, piping hot pasta sauces, salsa, sandwich fillings, fresh soups, and more without dirtying a single cutting board, pot, or pan.

Cleaning the pieces themselves is also a snap. All Magic Bullet cups and Stay-Fresh lids can be washed in the top shelf of the dishwasher, and blades can be quickly hand washed with soap and water.

TIPS:

Always unplug the Magic Bullet

should loosen ingredients enough to

when cleaning or assembling.

be wiped away with a light scrub.

STUBBORN CLEANUP:

If tough-to-clean ingredients like melted cheese or dried tomato are caked onto to the sides of your Magic Bullet cup, fill the cup with soapy water and heat in the microwave for one minute. This

CAUTION:

Do not put the blades in the dishwasher as the heat from some dishwashers can cause the gaskets to

deteriorate or come loose.

CLEANING THE MAGIC BULLET POWER BASE

The Power Base doesn’t generally get dirty, but liquids can leak out of cups and into the base and activator tabs if the blade isn’t twisted on tightly enough during blending. If this happens, UNPLUG THE POWER BASE (this is very important), then wipe the inside and outside of the base with a damp cloth. Let the machine dry for a few minutes before using again.

If leakage isn’t immediately or thoroughly cleaned, it can dry in the Power Base, leaving sticky residue on the activator tabs. Sticky tabs can get jammed in lock-on mode during blending, causing the motor to continue spinning even after the cup/

blade assembly is removed from the base. If this happens, immediately unplug the Power Base. Using a damp cloth, work the activator buttons up and down to soften and remove any sticky substances. Let the Power Base dry for a few minutes before blending again.

CAUTION:

NEVER SUBMERGE THE POWER BASE IN WATER OR PLACE IT IN DISHWASHER

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 Power Base is plugged in.

10-SECOND

RECIPES

Most of the recipes in this book allow you to prepare amazing food in as little as 10 seconds, provided you have the proper ingredients. However, 10 seconds can turn into longer

if you need to peel and cut vegetables before blending. Use the following foods in your recipes to save valuable time:

BOILER ONIONS

These mini onions are about an inch to an inch and a half in diameter, making them a perfect size for the Magic Bullet. Simply peel and pop into your Magic Bullet cup, no cutting, chopping, or crying required! One or

two of these onions is roughly equivalent to ¼ cup of chopped onion. You can adjust the amount you use in your recipes according to your taste.

PRE-PEELED GARLIC IN JARS

Most grocery stores sell these in the produce section. Add them straight into your Magic Bullet cup for any recipe calling for a clove or two of garlic.

CHERRY TOMATOES

Cherry tomatoes are perfectly sized for the Magic Bullet and extremely flavorful. Our recipes are based on cherry tomatoes that are about one inch in diameter. 4-6 cherry tomatoes are roughly equivalent to ¼ cup diced tomato.

BABY CARROTS

Cutting and peeling carrots is surprisingly time-consuming. Use baby carrots instead; they’re pre-cut, pre-peeled, and perfectly sized for the Magic Bullet.
