TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into an earthed outlet.
Do not remove earth prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these
instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.

MIXING TIME

Your KitchenAid Stand Mixer will mix faster
and more thoroughly than most other
electric mixers. Therefore, the mixing time
in most recipes must be adjusted to avoid
overbeating.

MIXING TIPS

Adding Ingredients
Always add ingredients as close to side of
bowl as possible, not directly into moving
beater. The Pouring Shield can be used to
simplify adding ingredients. Use Speed 1
until ingredients have been blended. Then
gradually increase to desired speed.
Adding Nuts, Raisins, or Candied Fruits
Follow individual recipes for guidelines on
including these ingredients. In general,
solid materials should be folded in the last
few seconds of mixing on Speed 1. The
batter should be thick enough to keep the
fruit or nuts from sinking to the bottom of
the pan during baking. Sticky fruits should
be dusted with flour for better distribution
in the batter.

WARNING
Injury Hazard
Unplug mixer before touching
beaters.
Failure to do so can result in
broken bones, cuts, or bruises.
The bowl and beater are designed to
provide thorough mixing without frequent
scraping. Do not scrape the bowl while
operating. Scraping the bowl once or twice
during mixing is usually sufficient.
The Stand Mixer may become warm during
use. Under heavy loads with extended
mixing time periods, you may not be able
to comfortably touch the top of the Stand
Mixer. This is normal.
To help determine the ideal mixing time,
observe the batter or dough and mix
only until it has the desired appearance
described in your recipe, such as "smooth
and creamy." To select the best mixing
speeds, use the "Speed control guide"
section.
Liquid Mixtures
Mixtures containing large amounts of
liquid ingredients should be mixed at lower
speeds to avoid splashing. Increase speed
only after mixture has thickened.
NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom of
bowl are not thoroughly mixed, then the
beater is not far enough into the bowl. See
the "Setting Up Your Stand Mixer" section.
