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 and 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.

To lower the tool closer to the bottom of the bowl, turn the adjustment wheel clockwise. To raise the tool away from the bottom of the bowl, turn the adjustment wheel anti-clockwise.
Re-tighten the nut.

To Fit And Use Your Splashguard Assembly

Refer to Illustration V
The splashguard assembly consists of 2 pieces: the heat shield and the splashguard.
The heat shield is to protect the mixer head from steam produced during the cooking process.
The splashguard should not be fitted to the bowl unless used in conjunction with the heat shield.

Raise the mixer head until it locks.
Push the heat shield upwards onto the underside of the mixer head until fully located. The heat shield must never be used without the rubber seal correctly fitted.
Fit the bowl onto the base.
Lower the mixer head.
Rest the splashguard on the bowl rim and then slide forward until fully located.
- During mixing, ingredients can be added directly to the bowl via the feed chute.
To remove the splashguard simply slide it away from the appliance
Note: The splashguard will remain attached to the heat shield when the mixer head is raised unless removed before lifting the mixer head.
To remove the heat shield, raise the mixer head until it locks. Remove the tool, then pull the heat shield downwards from the underside of the mixer head. Note: Only fit or remove the splashguard when the mixer head is in the locked position.

To Fit And Remove Your Stir Assist Clip

Refer to Illustration W
The stir assist clip can be used to assist the mixing action.

Slot the stir assist clip over the side of the bowl with the vertical ridge on the inside and the clips on the outside.
Turn the clip anti-clockwise onto the bowl handles.
To remove, reverse the procedure.

IMPORTANT – The stir assist clip should not be fitted when using the K-beater, whisk, dough tool or creaming beater.

Assembling The High Temperature Creaming Beater

Refer to Illustration X
Fitting The Wiper Blade
The wiper blade is supplied already fitted and should always be removed before cleaning.

Carefully fit the flexible wiper blade onto the tool by locating the base of the wiper blade into the slot then fit one side into the groove before gently hooking the end in place. Repeat with the other side.

Care And Cleaning

Always switch off and unplug before cleaning.
A little grease may appear at outlet when you first use it. This is normal – just wipe it off.
The metal surfaces of the temperature sensors may show signs of wear during normal use. This does not affect the performance of the product.
Do not leave the high temperature flexible beater fitted to the mixer when not in use.

Appliance, outlet covers

Wipe with a damp cloth, then dry.
Never use abrasives or immerse in water.

High temperature creaming beater

Always remove the flexible wiper blade from the tool before cleaning.
Wash the flexible wiper blade and tool in hot soapy water, then dry thoroughly. Alternatively the parts can be washed in a dishwasher.

Note: Please inspect the condition of the tool body before and after use and also regularly inspect the condition of the wiper blade and replace it if there are any signs of wear.

Bowl, Tools, Splashguard, Stir Assist Clip

Wash by hand, then dry thoroughly or wash in the dishwasher (refer to chart at front of manual).
Never use a wire brush, steel wool or bleach to clean your stainless steel bowl. Use vinegar or a suitable descaler to remove limescale.
If food sticks or burns on the inside of the bowl, remove as much as possible using the spatula provided. Fill the bowl with warm soapy water and allow to soak. Remove any stubborn deposits using a nylon brush.
Any discolouration of the bowl will not affect its performance.

Drain Hole
Ensure this area is free from food. If necessary use a pipe cleaner or cotton bud to clean.

Temperature sensors
Wipe with a damp cloth then dry thoroughly. Never use abrasives or sharp instruments to clean the sensors.

Steamer Attachment

Always switch off and unplug before removing the attachment from the Stand Mixer.
For easier cleaning always wash the parts immediately after use. All parts can be washed in hot soapy water, then dried thoroughly. Alternatively they can be washed in the dishwasher.
Ordinary water and food contains salts and acids which can sometimes effect metal surfaces such as the inside of the mixer bowl. Should this occur clean with a nylon brush, a non abrasive scourer or a proprietary stainless steel cleaner.
