Your Stand Mixer is equipped with a self-resetting safety device which safeguards against
overheating the motor with excessive loads. If overheating occurs, the mixer will automatically
switch itself off. The mixer will beep and the screen will flash continuously. Turn the speed
control dial to the '0' position and unplug it from the power point. Release the mixer head and
tilt it back until it is locked into the tilt back position. Let the mixer rest for 30 min.

If the mixing load is too heavy for the selected speed and prevents the attachment from
rotating, the mixer will cut-out to prevent damage to the unit. If the LCD screen flashes fast
and continuously, the motor has not been able to achieve or maintain the set speed. Remove
some of the mixture from the bowl, working in batches.

upwards during operation, the mixer will automatically stop. this is a safety mechanism to
avoid injury. To resume your mixing task, lock the mixer head back down and press the pause/
start button.

1.
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.
2.
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. this is
communicated in the recipe section.
3.
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.
4.
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 are combined then slowly increase to the appropriate
speed for the particular mixing task.
