PREPARING THE HAND MIXER FOR USE

The SUNBEAM® Hand Mixer has been designed to assist you in preparing delicious foods. Before using your mixer for the first time, wash the attachments in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. NOTE: All attachments are dishwasher safe.

INSTALLING ATTACHMENTS

Make sure the speed control is in the “OFF” position and unplugged from an electrical outlet. Insert attachments one at a time by placing stem end into the opening on the bottom of the mixer. Turn attachment slightly and push in until it clicks into position. (See Figure A) Plug into the appropriate outlet. Turn mixer on and adjust speed setting using the control on the top of the unit.

NOTE: The whisk and drink rod may be inserted into either opening on the bottom of the mixer.

ATTACHMENTS

BEATERS – The beater design allows for thorough, fast mixing results for all types of batters.
DOUGH HOOKS – Use these hooks to knead light dough or other heavy batters. Use at lower speeds for best results.
NOTE: The dough hook with the collar fits into the left drive hole and the other one goes into the right. ( See Figure B ) If dough hooks do not click into the drive holes, reverse and try again.
DRINK ROD – The drink rod is designed to mix all types of frozen or powdered drinks. Recommended for use in plastic or metal beverage containers only.
NOTE: Drink rod does not crush ice. For best use, add ice after mixing beverage.
SPATULA – The spatula is convenient to use for scraping unmixed ingredients from the sides of the bowl and removing mixed ingredients from the bowl, etc.
The spatula is not heat-resistant and it will melt if placed on or near hot surfaces.
WHISK – The whisk is used to beat air into mixtures such as egg whites, yolks or cream.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

When building up a recipe that requires the addition of dry ingredients, such as flour, slow the speed down while these ingredients are being added to avoid a snowstorm effect. Once the extra ingredients begin combining, slowly increase to the appropriate speed for the particular mixing task.

USING YOUR HAND MIXER

Slowly guide mixer around the sides and through the center of the bowl, going in the same direction. Be careful not to over beat the mixture. Over beating tends to make some mixtures tough.

Whenever scraping of the bowl is required, stop the mixer and scrape sides and bottom of bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Turn speed control to “OFF” and rest mixer on its heel rest while adding ingredients. Make sure to position beaters over mixing bowl so any drippings will fall back into the mixing bowl.

When mixing is complete, set speed control to “1” and raise beaters slowly from batter to clean off clinging food. Make sure to turn unit to “OFF” before raising beaters completely out of mixing bowl.

SPEED CONTROL DIAL/ATTACHMENT EJECT BUTTON – The hand mixer features a large and conveniently located speed control button that also functions as the beater eject button when in the “OFF” position. The design allows for a smooth push of the thumb to release the beaters. There will be a noticeable “click” when ejecting beaters.
BURST OF POWER® BUTTON (Models 2526 & 2545) – During especially heavy mixing tasks, press the button to drive through the mixture with ease. Once the button is released, the mixer will return to the original speed setting.

MIXING GUIDE

Please keep in mind that the various mixing tasks and related speeds, listed in the table below, may vary slightly from recipe to recipe. For most recipes, it is better to begin your mixing on a slower speed until the ingredients begin combining, then move to the appropriate speed range for the particular task.

When mixing larger quantities you may need to increase the MIXMASTER® hand mixer speed due to the amount of mixing required and the larger load on the machine.

CARING FOR YOUR MIXER

CARE AND CLEANING

“OFF” position, then unplug the cord from the outlet and eject the beaters. Make sure to wash and dry all parts thoroughly before using them again.
The attachments may be washed in hot, soapy water or in a dishwasher.
The mixer and the cord can be cleaned with a damp cloth but the final clean must be with a dry cloth.
To remove stubborn spots, wipe surfaces with a piece of cloth, slightly dampened, in soapy water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.
