before plugging in

important – UK only

• Make sure your electricity supply is the same as the one shown on the underside of your machine.

• The wires in the cord are coloured as follows:
  Blue = Neutral, Brown = Live.

• The appliance must be protected by a 13A approved (BS1362) fuse.

• For non-rewireable plugs the fuse cover MUST be refitted when replacing the fuse. If the fuse cover is lost then the plug must not be used until a replacement can be obtained. The correct fuse cover is identified by colour and a replacement may be obtained from your Kenwood Authorised Repairer (see Service).

• If a non-rewireable plug is cut off it must be DESTROYED IMMEDIATELY. An electric shock hazard may arise if an unwanted non-rewireable plug is inadvertently inserted into a 13A socket outlet.

• This machine complies with European Economic Community Directive 89/336/EEC.

before using for the first time

1. Remove all packaging.
2. Wash the parts: see ‘care and cleaning’, page 7.
3. Push excess cord into the cord stowage compartment at the back of the machine.

hints

• Switch off and scrape the bowl with the spatula frequently.

• Before whisking egg whites, make sure there’s no grease or egg yolk on the whisk or bowl.
• Use cold ingredients for pastry unless your recipe says otherwise.

points for bread making

important

• Never exceed the maximum capacities below – you’ll overload the machine.
• If you hear the machine labouring, switch off, remove half the dough and do each half separately.
• The ingredients mix best if you put the liquid in first.

Troubleshooting

problem

• The whisk or K-beater knocks against the bottom of the bowl or isn’t reaching the ingredients in the bottom of the bowl.
  solution

• Adjust the height. Here’s how:

1. Unplug.
2. Raise the mixer head and insert the whisk or beater.
3. Hold it, then loosen the nut 1
4. Lower the mixer head.
5. Adjust the height by turning the shaft. Ideally the whisk/K-beater should be almost touching the bottom of the bowl 2
6. Raise the head, hold the whisk/K-beater and tighten the nut.

problem

• The mixer stops during operation.
  solution

• Your mixer is fitted with an overload protection device and will stop if overloaded to protect the machine. If this happens, switch off and unplug the mixer. Remove some of the ingredients to reduce the load, and allow the mixer to stand for a few minutes. Plug in and reselect the speed. If the mixer does not restart immediately allow to stand for additional time.

To Fit And Use Your Splash Guard

1. Raise the mixer head until it locks.

2. Fit the bowl onto the base.

3. Push the splashguard onto the underside of the mixer head 3 until fully located. The hinged section should be positioned as shown.

4. Insert required tool.

5. Lower the mixer head.
   ● During mixing, ingredients can be added directly to the bowl via the hinged section of the splashguard 4.
   ● You do not need to remove the splashguard to change tools.

6. Remove the splashguard by raising the mixer head and sliding it down.
