Congratulations on having selected one of the best kitchen machines in the world.
As you read through these instructions, please pay particular attention to the IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS. Specific safeguards for the attachments, as well as warnings and cautions, are provided in each section describing the operation of that particular attachment.
Carefully remove the power unit from its packaging and place it on the counter so it is ready to use. As you remove the accessories from the carton, check them against figure 1 to assure that all the standard parts are present.
Check to make sure that the voltage on which your kitchen machine is to operate is the same as specified on the rating plate. Standard North American models have an electrical power rating of 500-watt maximum power rating with the attachment that draws the most power (some attachments may draw less power).
Before using any of the attachments for the first time it is recommended they be washed, rinsed well and dried.
Of the attachments supplied with the systems in this manual, all parts, except the dough hook, the motor drive cover and the blender's blade/base assembly, are dishwasher safe.
It is recommended that the blender's blade/base assembly never be left to stand in water or soap solution, to prevent the bearing lubricant from being washed out.

The operation of your Bosch Universal Kitchen Machine is summarized below. Specific instructions for each of the attachments included with your machine are listed separately. Please read the specific instructions thoroughly before using that attachment, paying particular attention to the IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS and WARNINGS provided.
Before using the machine with any of the attachments, the power unit should be placed on a suitable work surface. The surface should be sturdy, smooth and clean; make sure that there is no flour or oil on the surface. A clean, smooth surface will provide the best footing for the suction cup feet on the power unit and will limit slipping and/or "walking".
Unwind the power unit's cord to appropriate length and plug it into a convenient nearby receptacle.
If necessary, remove motor drive cover from drive that will be used and place it on drive that will not be used. The cover, when placed on the high-speed drive, can be locked in position by pressing down, see figure 2c.
Select the attachment you wish to use and place on power unit, See specific instructions for attachment selected in Sections listed below:
Attachment | Section |
Mixing bowl w/dough hook | "How to Use Dough Hook" |
Mixing bowl w/twin whisks | "How to Use Twin Beating Whisks" |
Blender | "BLENDER WITH PLASTIC JAR" |
Once the attachment is in place, the speed of its moving components can be controlled through the use of the rotary switch at the front of the power unit. See figure 2a. The rotary switch has five positions:
All models of the Bosch Universal Kitchen Machines incorporate a built-in safety cutout switch to protect the motor against overheating. If the safety becomes activated, the power unit will stop. If the power unit should stop even though there is power to the unit see TROUBLESHOOTING at the back of this manual.
When your work with the attachment is completed, turn the power unit to the Off position, "0/off", and unplug.
Remove the attachment from the power unit. See instructions for the specific attachment being used.
On certain attachments, the container will need to be periodically emptied when working with large quantities.
If the attachment is the batch feed type, disassemble per the specific attachment's instructions and place the contents in a suitable container.
Once you have completed working with the Bosch Kitchen Machine, the next step is to disassemble and clean the attachments. Refer to care and cleaning section for specific instructions.
If you wish to use another attachment, please return to step 4, above.
With the power unit turned Off and unplugged, it should be cleaned only with a clean, damp cloth. Then wipe off the motor drive cover and reinstall on the power unit. Never use coarse or caustic cleaning products to clean the power unit. Never immerse the power unit in water.
The power unit may be left on the counter or stored for future use. If the unit will be stored, lift the power unit and place in your chosen storage area.
The attachment(s) that have been used should be disassembled and washed, per their specific instructions, dried and stored for future use.
Following are the specific instructions for the standard attachments provided with the Bosch Universal Kitchen Machines covered by this manual.
All models of the Bosch Universal Kitchen Machines are provided with a six-quart mixing bowl with twin beating whisks and dough hook.
If additional mixing bowls are desired, they are available as accessory items.
The mixing bowl with dough hook and twin beating whisks consists of the following components, see figure 3:
Figure 3
3a. Bowl with cover and splash ring
3b. Twin beating whisks
3c. Dough hook
The dough hook is intended to be used to knead yeast doughs and to mix cookie and pastry doughs. Also when adding nuts, chocolate chips, dried fruit, hard butter or shortening, hardened brown sugar, etc. to batters.
Before beginning to attach this or any other attachment, make sure that the power unit is on a smooth, clean, suitable work surface and switched to the Off position, "0/off", and that you have, if necessary, moved the motor drive cover to the drive that will not be used.
ATTENTION
Failure to make sure that the bowl is properly seated on the drive coupling before the power unit is turned On can result in damage to the bowl and/or coupling.
The splash ring and cover should be in place whenever the power unit is in operation. The splash ring and cover serve to prevent the escape of flour dust at the beginning of the stirring and kneading process, and also serves to prevent accidental contact with the moving dough hook.
Make sure that the power unit is on a smooth, clean, suitable work surface and switched to the Off position, "0/off". Unwind the electrical cord to the necessary length and plug into a convenient outlet. The mixing bowl with dough hook is now ready for operation. See table 1 for examples demonstrating the use of the dough hook attachment. Sample recipes may also be found in the recipe section, at the back of this manual.
All Bosch Universal Kitchen Machines come with a twin beating whisk assembly, see figure 3b.
The twin beating whisks is intended to be used for very light substances, such as cream, egg whites, sauces, batters and light pastry doughs that are thin enough to pour.
The dough hook should be used for all heavier substances such as cookie doughs, yeast doughs, pastry doughs and other heavy doughs. The dough hook should always be used when adding nuts, chocolate chips, dried fruits, hard butter or other fats, hardened brown sugar, etc. to a mixture.
Before beginning to attach this or any other attachment, make sure that the power unit is on a smooth, clean, suitable surface and switched to Off position, "0/off", and that you have moved the motor drive cover.
The splash ring and cover should be in place whenever the power unit is in operation. The splash ring and cover serve to prevent the escape of flour dust at the beginning of the stirring and kneading process, and also serves to prevent accidental contact with the moving whisks.
Make sure that the switch is in the Off position, "0/off". Unwind the electrical cord to the necessary length and plug into the wall outlet. The bowl with whisk assembly is now ready for operation.
See table 1 for examples demonstrating the use of the twin beating whisks.

The MUM 6N11 UC Bosch Universal Kitchen Machine includes the blender accessory. The blender accessory consists of, figure 9.
The blender has been designed for crushing ice; mixing liquids; pureeing vegetables; preparing special diet and infant foods; pulverizing fruit, vegetables, nuts and dried bread (for bread crumbs); and preparing mayonnaise and sauces.
Before beginning to use this or any other attachment, make sure that the power unit is on a clean, smooth, suitable work surface and switched to Off position "0/off", and that you have removed the motor drive cover.
Blade/base assembly is very sharp. Handle with care.
The blade/base assembly may be easily removed by inverting the blender and using the blender cover to fit over the tabs on the blade/base assembly.
Turn it counterclockwise until it stops, see figure 10a, and then lift up, figure 10b.
Figure 10
Normally when blending, the blender jar should be filled with the entire amount of material to be blended, if possible, before switching the appliance on. The cover and cover closure should always be in place after filling the blender jar and before switching the power unit to On.
Any subsequent additions to the blended material should be made through the cover opening, see figure 14.
Figure 14
For solids and/or granular material, remove the cover closure/funnel to add the material, as shown in figure 14a.
For liquids, the closure/funnel may be left in place and the liquids added by pouring it into the closure/funnel, see figure 14b
Before beginning to remove the contents from the blender, make sure that the power unit has been turned to the Off position, "0/off". Remove the blender from the power unit by turning the blender clockwise while lifting. With the blender removed from the power unit, the contents of the blender may now be poured into a suitable container or bowl, as desired.
All components of the blender, except the blade/base assembly, are dishwasher safe. It is recommended that the blade/base assembly be cleaned only under flowing water rather than in the dishwasher. Soap and detergent will tend to wash out the bearing lubricant of the blade/base assembly. Do not use scouring cleaners on any of the blender parts.
Wash the blade/base assembly under running water. Do not place the blade/base assembly in the dishwasher or allow it to stand in water. This will tend to wash out the lubricant. After cleaning, rinse thoroughly and dry before using.
The power unit of the kitchen machine should be cleaned with a clean, damp cloth only. Never use coarse or caustic cleaning products to clean this appliance. Never immerse the power unit in water.
To familiarize you with the operation of the blender, a sample recipe for mayonnaise is provided below:
Mayonnaise Recipe
1 whole egg
1/3 cup of vegetable oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice or light vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon of salt
2/3 cup of vegetable oil
Mix all ingredients, except final 2/3 cup of oil, for a few seconds at speed 1, then quickly pour the oil in through the opening in the cover in a uniformly thick stream, as shown in figure 14b. Operate the blender at speeds 1 or 4 until mixture is thick and smooth (approximately 10–20 seconds).
Makes 11/4 cups.
Tips
The blender should be operated with careful consideration as to what is required and/or desired. The speed at which the blender is operated and the length of operation for a given job will depend upon the degree of fineness desired or the amount being blended.
When the blender is being used on dry materials, such as nuts or dry bread, the best results will be obtained when the blender jar is filled with approximately 1/2 cup of material to be blended.
If the blender does not start (even after trying the highest speed) and it is humming or not functioning at all, the blade has become blocked by the contents. Try to switch to the "M" position to unlock the blades. If this does not unlock the blades refer to troubleshooting section.
