  3. Align the bowl with the grooves on the mixer base. To lock the mixing bowl, turn it clockwise until it stops.
  4. If using the splash guard, push it up onto the mixer head. Be sure to position the hole in the splash guard toward you so you can add ingredients easily, if needed.
  5. Align the beater, hook or whisk attachment so the grooves on the attachment match to the shaft located under the mixer head. With some pressure, push the attachment towards the mixer head (moving the spring upward) and twist the attachment in a counter-clockwise direction.
  6. Add ingredients into the mixing bowl per your recipe. Do not overfill.
  7. Place your left hand on top of the mixer head and push the head release lever down with your right hand. Slowly but firmly push the mixer head down until it locks in place. Release the lever.
  8. Plug the power cord into an outlet. The speed dial will illuminate and flash blue.
    Note: To prevent splattering, always begin mixing at a low speed and progress toward the desired speed. Speed Setting| Purpose| Attachment| Type of Mixture
    ---|---|---|---
    1-2| Kneading| Dough Hook| LOW: dough for pizza. pasta. bread. etc.
    1-2| Folding| Beater| LOW: heavy batter
    3-4| Light Mixing| Beater| MEDIUM: cakes. biscuits. icing. etc.
    5-6| Aerating & Whisking| Whisk| HIGH: egg whites. cream. etc.
    Pulse| Quick bursts of
    power| Whisk or Beater| HIGH: for small jobs, quick mixing
  9. To begin mixing, turn the speed dial in a clockwise direction. The speed dial will illuminate blue. Increase the speed per your recipe. Use the mixing guide on page 6 as a reference.
  10. Use PULSE (when you require a quick burst of power or for quick incorporations) by turning the speed dial counter-clockwise and hold in this position. Hold the dial at PULSE for no more than 30 seconds at one time. When the dial is released, it returns to OFF automatically.
  11. Stop the mixer, as needed, and lift the head to scrape the bowl sides with a spatula. Lower the head again before resuming mixing.
  12. When mixing is complete, turn the speed dial to OFF and unplug from the outlet.
  13. Raise the head, remove the attachment (with some pressure, push the attachment toward the head, and twist the attachment in a clockwise direction; pull the attachment from the shaft).
  14. Twist the bowl counter-clockwise to remove it from the base.
    Note: With heavy mixtures, do not operate the machine for more than 6 minutes at once, and then allow the mixer to cool down for about 10 minutes.

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution
Over-mixing has occurred • Mix for the recommended time in the recipe to

avoid over-mixing.
Egg whites are not whipping| • Be sure the whisk attachment and mixing bowl are completely clean and dry before use. as even a small amount of fat will affect the whipping performance.
Bread dough is not combining| • Some brands of flour absorb more liquid than others. so additional liquid may need to be added if the bread is not combined.
• If dough is too wet add flour (by the Tbsp.) until dough becomes right consistency.
• DO NOT use high speed to knead dough.
Batter is too firm and some ingredients cling on sides of bowl| • Use a spatula to scrape any food mixture down the sides of the mixing bowl. Add more liquid to your batter. if needed.
Mixture is curdling after the eggs have been added| • Add eggs one at a time. beating well after each addition.
• Make sure eggs are at room temperature.
Sugar crystals still visible after creaming| • Continue to cream until sugar has dissolved. or use powdered sugar.
Lumps in batter or dough| • Sift flours and sugar before mixing.
