Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

• WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
• The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
• WARNING Moving Parts Hazard.  To reduce the risk of personal injury, always unplug the mixer before inserting or removing the beaters.

WATTAGE/PEAK POWER INFORMATION

Mixing Guide

The following mixing guide is a suggestion for selecting mixing speeds. Begin on Speed 1 and increase to the desired speed, depending on the recipe consistency.

General Mixing Tips

• Place liquid ingredients in a bowl first and then add dry ingredients.
• Always stay near the mixer during use.
• To begin mixing, use the lower speeds until the ingredients are thoroughly combined. This will reduce splattering.
• Always add ingredients as close to the sides of the bowl as possible, not directly into the moving attachment.
• When preparing package cake mixes, use Speed 1 for low speed, Speed 4 for medium speed, and Speed 7 for high speed. For best results, mix for the time stated on the package directions.
• Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid ingredients should be mixed at lower speeds to avoid splashing. Increase speed only after the mixture has thickened.
• When mixing thin batters, use medium speeds and frequently stop the mixer to scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula.

Flat Beater Tips

• A flat beater is used for most of your mixing needs.
• Use the flat beater attachment to mix cakes, cookie dough, frosting, or potatoes.

Cookie dough is one of the thickest doughs to mix. Make it easier by following these tips:

• Have butter or margarine at room temperature.
• Add ingredients one at a time, thoroughly mixing after each addition.
• Add flour one cup at a time.
• If the mixer seems to struggle, increase the speed setting.

Dough Hook Tips

The dough hook is for recipes that require kneading.

• The mixer head locks down for thorough mixing.
• When mixing thin batters, use medium speeds and frequently stop the mixer to scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Place liquid ingredients in the bowl first and then add dry ingredients.
• Always stay near the mixer during use.
• If a spoon is accidentally caught in an attachment or the motor stalls, turn the speed control to OFF ( ) and then unplug. Clear the obstruction or reduce the amount of mixture in the bowl. Let the motor cool for 5 minutes before continuing.

Whisk Tips

• The whisk is designed to whip liquids, such as egg whites and cream. Do not use the whisk for mixing thick mixtures, such as dough, fudge, or mashed potatoes.
• Your mixer is designed to whisk a minimum of 2 large egg whites or 1 cup (237 ml) of cream. Mixer performance is enhanced as the tip of the whisk is immersed into the liquid. If smaller quantities are needed, a hand mixer is recommended.

EGG WHITES

Place egg whites in a clean, dry mixing bowl. Attach bowl and whisk. To avoid splashing, add the splash shield and gradually turn the speed control to the desired speed. See chart below.

AMOUNT: SPEED

• 2 to 4 egg whites up to 7
• 6 or more egg whites up to 5

Your stand mixer whips egg whites quickly. Watch carefully to avoid overwhipping. Here is what to expect:

• Frothy: Large, uneven air bubbles.
• Begins to Hold Shape: Air bubbles are fine and compact; the product is white.
• Soft Peak: Tips of peaks fall over when the whisk is removed.
• Almost Stiff: Sharp peaks form when the whisk is removed, but whites are still soft.
• Stiff But Not Dry: Sharp, stiff peaks form when the whisk is removed. Whites are uniform in color and glisten.
• Stiff and Dry: Sharp, stiff peaks form when the whisk is removed. Whites are speckled and dull in appearance.

WHIPPED CREAM

Pour cold whipping cream into a chilled bowl. Attach bowl and whisk. To avoid splashing, gradually turn to the designated speed and whip to the desired stage. See chart below.

AMOUNT: SPEED

• 1 cup (237 ml) up to 7
• 1 pint (473 ml) up to 5

Your stand mixer whips cream very quickly. Watch cream closely during whipping because there are just a few seconds between whipping stages. Look for these characteristics:

• Begins to Thicken: Cream is thick and custard-like.
• Holds Its Shape: Cream forms soft peaks when the whisk is removed. Can be folded into other ingredients when making desserts and sauces.
• Stiff: Cream stands in stiff, sharp peaks when the whisk is removed. Use for topping on cakes or desserts, or filling for cream puffs.

Care and Cleaning

WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not immerse the mixer, or cord, or plug in water or any other liquid.

1. Turn the speed control dial to OFF ( ). Unplug.
2. The bowl, splatter shield, nonstick dough hook, whisk, and flat beater are dishwasher-safe on the top rack. DO NOT use the “SANI” setting when washing in the dishwasher. “SANI” cycle temperatures could damage your product.
3. Wipe the outside of the stand mixer with a damp cloth or sponge and dry.

Troubleshooting

Food is not mixed.

• Place liquid ingredients in a bowl before adding dry ingredients.
• Stop the mixer and scrape the sides of the bowl.
• Increase speed.

Food splatters during mixing.

• Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid ingredients should be mixed at lower speeds to avoid splashing. Increase speed only after the mixture has thickened. See page 5 for how to use a splatter shield.
• The splatter shield is not in place. Slide the splatter shield over the bowl until it rests on the bowl.

The mixer “walks” on the counter during mixing.

• Reduce speed.
• Reduce the quantity of ingredients in a bowl.
• Make sure the countertop is clean. This allows the suction cups to grip the countertop and reduce mixer movement.
