Before using your Hand/Stand Mixer for the first time, wash the Beaters, Dough
Hooks and Bowl in hot/ soapy water, or the dishwasher. Rinse and dry. Be sure the
speed controls are in the "0" position and the unit is unplugged from an electrical
outlet. Plug cord into an electrical outlet. Insert Beaters as indicated above.
MIXING WITH THE STAND MIXER
The On/ Off Speed is used to switch the Mixer on and control the Mixer speed. For
every speed selected, the Burst of Power Feature Button can be pressed and held
when the appliance is in operation to achieve the maximum power within the selected
speed. You can add ingredients to the bowl while mixing or switch it off, raise the
mixer and then add the ingredients. Once you are done adding the ingredients, lower
the mixer and start the mixing process again until you reach the desired consistency.
NOTE: The Mixer must not be run continuously for more than 5 minutes at a time.
After this time, allow it to cool for at least 5 minutes before re-using.
MIXING WITH THE HAND MIXER
Remove Mixer from the stand, please refer to the instructions on the section
"PLACING/ REMOVING THE MIXING BOWL". Turn mixer on and refer to speed
guide for the correct setting. Slowly guide mixer around sides and through center
of bowl, going in the same direction. Be careful not to overbeat the mixture.
Overbeating tends to make some mixtures tough. Whenever scraping of the bowl is
required, stop the mixer and scrape sides and bottom of bowl with a rubber spatula
as needed. Turn speed control to the off position "O" and rest mixer on its heel
rest while adding ingredients. Be sure to position beaters over mixing bowl so any
dripping will fall back into mixing bowl. When mixing is complete, set the control to
"1", and raise beaters slowly from batter to clean off clinging food. Be sure to unit to
"0" before raising beaters completely out of mixing bowl.
BURST OF POWER FEATURE
The BURST OF POWER feature allows for an added boost to the selected speed
setting at the press of the button. During especially heavy mixing tasks, press the
button to drive through the mixture with ease. Once the button is released, the mixer
will return to the original speed setting.
EJECTING BEATERS
Be sure the control is in the off "0" position and cord is removed from electrical outlet.
Scrape off any excess batter with a rubber spatula. Grasp the stems of the beaters
with your hand and press the beater eject button. Beaters will release into your hand.
