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 splashguard

(if supplied)

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.
