IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For Household Use Only
WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, 
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD 
ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE 
FOLLOWING:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING 
YOUR NINJA® PROFESSIONAL BLENDER 
WITH NUTRI NINJA® CUPS.
POLARIZED PLUG 
 WARNING: To reduce the risk of 
electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug 
(one blade is wider than the other). This plug will 
fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug 
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. 
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician 
to install the proper outlet. DO NOT modify the 
plug in any way.
WARNING: Extension cords are 
not recommended for use with this 
product.
3   WARNING: Stacked Blade Assembly 
is sharp and not locked in place. If 
using the pour spout, ensure the lid is 
fully locked onto the pitcher. If pouring 
with the lid removed, carefully remove 
the Stacked Blade Assembly first, 
holding it by the shaft. Failure to do so 
will result in a risk of laceration.
4   CAUTION: Do not blend hot liquids, 
doing so may cause excessive pressure 
build-up, resulting in risk of the user 
being burned. 
5  CAUTION: Remove the Nutri Ninja 
Blade Assembly from the Nutri Ninja 
Cup upon completion of blending. Do 
not store ingredients before or after 
blending them in the cup with the 
blade assembly attached. Some foods 
may contain active ingredients or 
release gases which will expand if left 
in a sealed container, resulting in 
excessive pressure buildup that can 
pose a risk of injury. For ingredient 
storage in the cup, use only To-Go Lid 
to cover.
6   CAUTION: We do not recommend 
grinding in any of our Nutri Ninja® cups.
7  To protect against electrical shock, do not 
submerge the appliance or allow the power 
cord to come into contact with water or any 
other liquid.
8  DO NOT allow the appliance to be used by 
children. Close supervision is necessary 
when used near children. This is not a toy.
9  Never leave an appliance unattended when 
inuse.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC 
SHOCK OR INJURY:

processing. Failure to remove may 
cause the jar to be damaged or to 
shatter which may cause personal 
injury.
2  WARNING: Stacked Blade Assembly 
is sharp, not locked in place and 
removable, handle with care. When 
handling the Stacked Blade Assembly,
