LEARNING YOUR HAND/STAND MIXER
You can use the mixer to mix and knead. The mixer can be easily removed from the stand in a moment and used as a standard hand mixer.
PREPARING FOR USE
Placing and securing the mixer to the stand (figure 2).
Before placing and securing the mixer to the stand, switch unit off “O” and unplug from the electrical outlet. Press the tilt button and tilt the cradle back. Place the grooves located in the bottom of the hand mixer (see figure 2) onto the tips of the holding base of the stand. Then push the back of the hand mixer down until it locks into place with a click sound. To remove it, push the lower end of the Lock & Release Latch and lift the hand mixer up then forward.
INSERTING/ EJECTING BEATERS & DOUGH HOOKS
Before releasing the Beaters or Dough Hooks, switch off the mixer and remove the plug from the electrical outlet. Push the Beaters or Dough Hooks into the slots located under of the mixer, until they click into place. The two Dough Hooks have different plug shapes and must be pushed into the correct slots. Inserting the wrong way would lead the dough to “move” upwards. One of the Dough Hooks has an additional small ring near the collar on the shaft. This Dough Hook will only fit in the slot for which it is intended. To remove the accessories, hold firmly with one hand, while pressing the Beater Ejector Button (figure 3).
RAISING/ LOWERING THE MIXER
Ensure the mixer is switched off before raising/ lowering. Press the Raise/
Low Button (figure 4) and lift the mixer up or lower it until it clicks in
place. This will facilitate removal of Beaters as well the Bowl.
PLACING/ REMOVING THE MIXING BOWL
Place the Mixing Bowl on the rotating plate of the Stand (figure 5) and
latch in place by gently turning it clockwise. To remove it, turn it
counterclockwise to unlatch. It may be necessary to hold the base to prevent
it from rotating. The off center position of the mixer makes it easy to add
ingredients while the mixer is in operation.
USING YOUR HAND/STAND MIXER
Before using your hand/stand mixer for the first time, wash the Beaters, Dough Hooks and Bowl in hot/ soapy water, or the dishwasher. Rinse and dry. Be sure the speed controls are in the “0” position and the unit is unplugged from an electrical outlet. Plug cord into an electrical outlet. Insert Beaters as indicated above.
MIXING WITH THE STAND MIXER
The On/ Off Speed is used to switch the mixer on and control the mixer speed.
For every speed selected, the Burst of Power Feature Button can be pressed and
held when the appliance is in operation to achieve the maximum power within
the selected speed. You can add ingredients to the bowl while mixing or switch
it off, raise the mixer and then add the ingredients. Once you are done adding
the ingredients, lower the mixer and start the mixing process again until you
reach the desired consistency
NOTE: The mixer must not be run continuously for more than 5 minutes at a time. After this time, allow it to cool for at least 5 minutes before re- using.
MIXING WITH THE HAND MIXER
Remove mixer from the stand, please refer to the instructions on the section
“PLACING/ REMOVING THE MIXING BOWL”. Turn mixer on and refer to speed guide
for the correct setting. Slowly guide mixer around sides and through center of
bowl, going in the same direction. Be careful not to overbeat the mixture.
Overbeating 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 the off position “O” and rest mixer
on its heel rest while adding ingredients. Be sure to position beaters over
mixing bowl so any dripping will fall back into mixing bowl. When mixing is
complete, set the control to “1”, and raise beaters slowly from batter to
clean off clinging food. Be sure to unit to “0” before raising beaters
completely out of mixing bowl.
BURST OF POWER FEATURE
The BURST OF POWER feature allows for an added boost to the selected speed
setting at the press of the button. 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.
EJECTING BEATERS
Be sure the control is in the off “0” position and cord is removed from
electrical outlet.
Scrape off any excess batter with a rubber spatula. Grasp the stems of the
beaters with your hand and press the beater eject button. Beaters will release
into your hand.
SWIVEL CONTROL
Swivel control allows beaters to move within bowl for faster, more uniform
mixing.
