Getting Started

Thank you for purchasing this quality Courant 5-Speed Hand Mixer! Please read all of these instructions before first use to safely get the most out of your new appliance.

Before using your burner for the first time:

1. Carefully unpack the mixer. Remove all labels and packaging materials. Do not plug the mixer in yet.
2. Take special care when unpacking. Ensure there is no damage.
3. Clean the mixer (see the Care, Cleaning, and Maintenance section later in this guide).

During initial use, you may notice a slight odor due to the release of manufacturing residues. This is normal and will disappear after a few uses.

   • 1 = Slowest
   • 5 = Fastest
2. Turbo/Pulse button
3. Housing
4. Beaters

Operating the Hand Mixer

• Do not leave the mixer plugged in if it is not in use

1. Before plugging in your mixer for the first time, wash the whisk, beaters or dough hooks in hot soapy water or in a dishwasher. Rinse and dry them.

2. Leave the mixer unplugged and make sure the speed dial is set to 0.

3. Insert the whisk, beaters or dough hooks one at a time by placing the stem into the opening on the bottom of the mixer. Turn them until the notches line up with the opening on the mixer. Push them in until they click into position.
   Note: There is one whisk provided with the mixer. Do not attach a beater or dough hook along with the whisk. Only use the whisk by itself.

4. 4. Plug the unit into an appropriate outlet near the prepared ingredients. Place the mixer with the ingredients and start the mixer by moving the speed dial to 1, which is the lowest speed.

5. Gradually increase the speed setting if needed. Speed 1 is the lowest; speed 5 is highest.

6. When mixing is complete, set the speed dial back to 0. This stops the motor. Make sure the motor and all moving parts have completely stopped before raising the whisk, beaters or dough hooks out of the mixing bowl.

7. Unplug the unit. When the speed dial is set to 0, you can press down on the dial to eject/release the beaters, whisk or hooks. Never eject while the mixer is plugged in. Before ejecting, you may wish to gently tap the beaters, dough hooks, or whisk on the side of the bowl to remove any excess mixture.

To prevent the mixer from overheating, do not operate it for more than five minutes at a time. Turn the mixer off, unplug it, and allow it to cool down for 5 minutes when using it for an extended period of time.

Additional Operating Instructions and Tips

SPEED SETTINGS

• Speed settings 1 and 2 are commonly used when stirring liquid ingredients or when mixing dry and liquid ingredients together in a recipe. This would include things like instant pudding.
• Speed settings 3 and 4 are used when preparing cake mixes or for recipes that call for a medium speed, like when mixing butter and sugar into a cream.
• Speed setting 5 is used for whipping egg whites.
• When a higher setting is needed, always begin mixing at slow speeds first, then build up to the higher setting.

TURBO BUTTON
When the mixer is set for speed 1 – 4, pressing the turbo button will increase the power and speed to maximum. Turbo is equal to speed setting 5, so if the speed is already set to 5, the turbo button will not add power. Also, the turbo button will not function when the speed dial is set to 0 (off).

MIXING TIPS

• Refrigerated ingredients such as butter and eggs should be at room temperature before mixing begins. Set these ingredients out ahead of time.
• To eliminate the possibility of eggshells in your recipe, break eggs into a separate container first, then add them to the mixture.
• When mixing egg whites, be sure that the mixing bowl and beaters are thoroughly clean and dry. Even a small amount of oil on the beaters or in the bowl could cause the egg whites not to aerate.
• Always start mixing at slow speeds. Gradually increase to the recommended speed stated in the recipe.
• Do not over-mix. Follow the mixing times recommended in the recipe. With things like dough, over-mixing can cause toughness, lack of rising, or excess shrinkage.
• Fold in any dry ingredients carefully, using the lowest speed necessary.
• During mixing, ingredients may splash onto the sides of the mixing bowl. If the splashing is excessive, turn the mixer off and use a plastic or rubber utensil to scrape the bowl. Do not use a metal utensil, as that may damage the mixer or its tools if contact is made.

Care, Cleaning, and Maintenance

Aside from removing the whisk, beaters or dough hooks, there is no disassembly required to clean this unit.

Always switch off the appliance and unplug it before cleaning.

1. Switch the mixer off (set the speed dial to 0) and unplug it.
2. If needed, gently tap the beaters, whisk or dough hooks on the side of the bowl to remove any excess mixture.
3. Eject the whisk, beaters or dough hooks by pressing down on the speed dial while it is set to 0.
4. Wash the beaters, whisk, or dough hooks in soapy water.
5. Using a cloth dampened with warm water and detergent, carefully clean the mixer. Make sure you do not allow water to seep into the mixer. Do not use abrasive cleaning tools or harsh cleaning solutions.
6. Dry the surface with a dry cloth or paper towel.

CAUTION: NEVER IMMERSE THE UNIT IN WATER. THIS APPLIANCE HAS ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AND SHOULD NEVER COME IN CONTACT WITH WATER. Any servicing of this mixer should be performed by an authorized service representa-tive. The motor of your mixer has been lubricated at the factory. Any additional lubricant may cause a fire hazard.

STORING YOUR HAND MIXER
Unplug the mixer and wrap or coil the electrical cord with a twist tie. Store the mixer on its heel rest in a clean, dry location such as a cabinet or shelf. Store the beaters, whisk, and dough hooks in a drawer.
