Know Your Kenwood Stand Mixer
Congratulations on buying a Kenwood. With such a wide range of attachments available, it is more than just a mixer. It is a state-of-the-art Stand Mixer. We hope you will enjoy it. Robust. Reliable. Versatile. Kenwood.

Safety

Read these instructions carefully and retain for future reference.
Remove all packaging and any labels.
If the plug or cord is damaged it must, for safety reasons, be replaced by Kenwood or an authorised Kenwood repairer in order to avoid a hazard.
Turn the speed control to ‘O’ OFF position and unplug before fitting or removing tools/attachments, after use and before cleaning.
Keep body parts, hair and jewellery and loose clothing away from moving parts and fitted attachments.
Never leave the Stand Mixer unattended when it is operating.
Never use a damaged appliance. Get it checked or repaired: see ‘Service and Customer Care’ section.
Never operate the Stand Mixer with the head in the raised position.
Never put your fingers into the hinge mechanism.
Never let the cord hang down where a child could grab it.
Never let the power unit, cord or plug get wet.
Never use an unauthorised attachment or more than one attachment at once.
Never exceed the quantities stated in the maximum capacity chart
When using an attachment, read and follow the safety instructions that are supplied with it.
Take care when lifting this appliance as it is heavy. Ensure the head is correctly latched in the down position and that the bowl, tools, outlet covers and cord are secure before lifting.
Take care when removing bowl tools after extended use as they may get hot.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Do not move or raise the mixer head with an attachment fitted as the Stand Mixer could become unstable.
When moving the appliance always pick up by the pedestal base and mixer head. Do not lift or carry the appliance by the bowl handle.
Do not operate your appliance near the edge or overhanging the work surface or apply force to an attachment when fitted, as this may cause the unit to become unstable and tip over, which may result in injury.
The short power-supply cord is used to reduce risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used: 1) The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be
at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance; and 2) The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. 3) The extension cord should be an earthed-type 3-wire cord. The electrical rating of the appliance is listed on the bottom of the unit
Appliances can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and if they understand the hazards involved.
Misuse of your appliance can result in injury.
This appliance shall not be used by children. Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children.
The maximum rating is based on the mini chopper/mill attachment that draws the greatest load. Other attachments may draw less power.
Only use the appliance for its intended domestic use. Kenwood will not accept any liability if the appliance is subject to improper use, or failure to comply with these instructions.

Before plugging in

Make sure your electricity supply is the same as the one shown on the underside of your appliance.

Important – Plug and Fuse Information

The wires in the cord are coloured as follows:
Green and Yellow = Earth
Blue = Neutral
Brown = Live
If the plug supplied with your appliance has a fuse fitted it is rated either 10A or 13A. If the fuse fails it must be replaced with one of the same rating.
If the plug or cord requires replacing a new cord set should be fitted by an Authorised Kenwood Repairer.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Note:
For non-rewireable plugs the fuse cover MUST be refitted when replacing the fuse. If the fuse cover is lost then the plug must not be used until a replacement can be obtained. The correct fuse cover is identified by colour and a replacement may be obtained from your Kenwood Authorised Repairer (see Service).
If a non-rewireable plug is cut off it must be DESTROYED IMMEDIATELY. An electric shock hazard may arise if an unwanted non-rewireable plug is inadvertently inserted into a 13A socket outlet.
This appliance conforms to EC Regulation 1935/2004 on materials and articles intended to come into contact with food.

Tool Adjustment

Refer to Illustrations O
K-beater & Whisk
The tools are set to the correct height for the bowl supplied in the factory and should not require adjustment. However, if you wish to adjust the tool use a suitable sized spanner:
TYPE KVC65 = 15mm
TYPE KVL65 = 19mm
Then follow the instructions below:

Unplug the appliance.
Raise the mixer head and insert the whisk or beater.
Lower the mixer head. If the clearance needs to be adjusted, raise the mixer head and remove the tool. Ideally, the whisk and K-beater should be almost touching the bottom of the bowl.
Using a suitable spanner loosen the nut sufficiently to allow adjustment of the shaft. To lower the tool closer to the bottom of the bowl, turn the shaft anti-clockwise. To raise the tool away from the bottom of the bowl turn the shaft clockwise.
Re-tighten the nut.
Fit the tool to the mixer and lower
the mixer head. (Check its position
see points above).
Repeat the above steps as necessary
until the tool is set correctly. Once
this is achieved tighten the nut
securely.
- Note: Spanner shown is for illustration purposes only.

Dough Tool

This tool is set at the factory and should require no adjustment.
