Features of your HeatSoft Technology Hand Mixer

NOTE: Not all accessories may be included and can vary depending on the unit purchased.

Learning About Your Hand Mixer
The Sunbeam^® Hand Mixer with HeatSoft Technology has been designed to allow you to bake when inspired. No more waiting for ingredients like butter to reach room temperature! Now you can soften and mix in one step!

Did You Know?
Many recipes require ingredients like butter to be at room temperature. Butter will only reach room temperature after hours of sitting on the benchtop. If you use butter that's cold, straight from the refrigerator, it will result in heavy and dense baked goods. Butter that is microwaved or melted butter can create an oily batter resulting in soggy, unevenly risen baked goods. Using room temperature ingredients creates fluffier results and better baked goods.

HeatSoft Button:
The HeatSoft Button allows for butter to be softened while mixing. HeatSoft Technology uses gentle heat to bring cold ingredients to room temperature while mixing eliminating the need to plan ahead.
Note: Do not use the HeatSoft button for longer than 5 minutes each time.

Boost Button Power Feature
The Boost Button Power Feature allows for an added boost to the selected speed setting at the press of the button.

Beater Eject Button
This Hand Mixer features a convenient Beater Eject Button. The design allows for a separate push of the thumb to release the beaters, dough hooks or whisk.

Make sure hand mixer is unplugged before removing or inserting any attachments.

Power Cord Management
The power cord strap that comes attached to the power cord keeps it organised when wrapped.

Beaters
The beater design allows for thorough, fast mixing results for all types of batters. The stainless steel beaters are dishwasher safe.

Dough Hooks (JM7000 only)
Use these hooks (see Figure 1) to knead bread dough, pizza dough or other heavy batters and doughs. Use at lower speeds for best results.

Whisk (JM7000 only)
The whisk (see Figure 3) is used to beat air into mixtures such as egg whites, yolks or cream.

Storage Case (JM7000 only)
Lets you store your hand mixer, accessories, and power cord conveniently together for easy access and travel (see Figure 4).

Magnetic Nozzle
The magnetic nozzle is removable for easy cleaning. (see Figure 5).

Using your HeatSoft Technology Hand Mixer

Prepping your Mixer

Before using your mixer for the first time, wash the beaters, dough hooks and whisk. Rinse and dry.
To place the beaters in the unit first ensure speed control is "0 (OFF)" and unit is unplugged. Then ensure Magnetic Nozzle is in place. Insert beaters one at a time, by placing the stem end of beaters into the opening drive holes on the bottom of the mixer. Turn beater slightly and push in until beater clicks into position.
Note that the beaters are interchangeable but dough hooks are not. When using dough hooks, the dough hook with the collar on the stem (see Figure 2) fits into the large drive hole on the mixer. If dough hooks do not click into the drive holes, reverse and try again.
Plug cord into an appropriate outlet.

Softening Butter

1. Cut cold butter into approx. 2.5cm cubes and place them into the mixing bowl with sugar.
2. Press the HeatSoft button once, and then turn on the beaters. Start at speed setting 1 for approx. 45 seconds or until there are no more large chunks of butter. Then turn to speed 7 for the remainder of time recommended in the chart.
   NOTE: When the HeatSoft button is functioning, a white light will illuminate and the heat fan will turn on.
   
   Do not touch or hold your hand beneath the heat nozzle while the HeatSoft feature is ON.
   NOTE: Turn off the HeatSoft feature after the amount of time listed in the chart above to avoid over creaming the batter.
3. Once the creaming is completed press the HeatSoft button again to turn off the heat and the white light will fade out and the fan will turn off.

   Sugar Amount (Cups)	Butter Amount (Grams)	Softening Time
   1/2 cup	110g	1 to 1 ½ minutes
   1 cup	220g	2 to 2 ½ minutes

4. Continue mixing your batter with the rest of the ingredients following the recipe. Find more details in the Mixing Section.

Mixing

1. Add in the rest of the ingredients into the mixing bowl.
   NOTE: To avoid splatters start unit on lowest speed and slowly increase to the desired speed setting.
2. 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.
   NOTE: 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 "0 (OFF)" while adding ingredients. Be sure to position beaters over mixing bowl so any drippings will fall back into mixing bowl.
3. When mixing is complete, set speed control to "1" and raise beaters slowly from batter to clean off clinging food. Be sure to turn unit to "0 (OFF)" before raising beaters completely out of mixing bowl.

Ejecting Beaters, Dough Hooks, or Whisk

Turn off and unplug the appliance before ejecting any accessories.
Be sure speed control is at the "0 (OFF)" position and cord is removed from electrical outlet. Press the Beater Eject Button and accessories will release.

How To Adjust the Speed

1. Move the speed selector from 1 to 7 and to turn off set to "0 (OFF)".
2. To engage a higher speed immediately press and hold the Boost Button. The speed will go to 7 until released and will return to orginal setting.
   NOTE: This feature is intended to be used for short bursts. For long mixing use select speed 7.

Mixing Guide

Please keep in mind that the various mixing tasks and related speeds, listed in the table below, may vary slightly from recipe to recipe. Please refer to it regularly as you develop your understanding of how different ingredients interact when mixing.

Hints & Tips

For most recipes, it is better to begin your mixing on a slower speed until the ingredients begin combining, then move to the appropriate speed range for the particular task.
Generally, there is not one set speed for an entire recipe. You will need to change the speed of the mixer depending on what stage of the recipe you are working on.
When mixing larger quantities you may need to increase the mixer speed due to the amount of mixing required and the larger load on the machine.
When building up a recipe that requires the addition of dry ingredients, such as flour, slow the speed down whilst these ingredients are being added to avoid a snow storm effect. Once the additional ingredients begin combining then slowly increase to the appropriate speed for the particular mixing task.
