PRODUCT USAGE
OPERATING THE SPEED CONTROL
WARNING
Injury Hazard
Unplug the mixer before touching the beaters.
Failure to do so can result in broken bones, cuts, or bruises.
This KitchenAid Hand Mixer will beat faster and more thoroughly than most
other electric hand mixers. Therefore, the beating time in most recipes must
be adjusted to avoid over-beating.
Beating time is faster due to larger beater sizes.
To help determine the ideal beating time, observe the batter or dough and beat
only until it has the desired appearance described in your recipe, such as
“smooth and creamy”. To select the best beating speeds, use the “Speed Control
Guide” section.
