• Remove any packaging material and promotional labels before using your stand mixer
for the rst time. Ensure you position the stand mixer on a rm, level benchtop, free
from any obstructions.
• Plastic wrapping can be a suffocation hazard for babies and young children, so ensure
all packaging materials are out of their reach and disposed of safely.
• Inspect all parts of the appliance for visual damage. Unwind the power cord to its full
length and inspect the cord and plug for damage. Do not use the appliance if the main
unit or its cord have been damaged or are not working properly. In case of damage,
contact our after-sales support line for assistance.
• Ensure you have read and understood all instructions and warnings in this manual
before use. Refer to the Assembly and Parts List pages to familiarise yourself with the
product and identify all parts.
• Wash the stainless steel bowl and the three mixing tools with a soft cloth or sponge in
warm water and a little dish detergent to remove any dust from transport. Rinse and
dry thoroughly.
• Ensure the power cord is unplugged from the power outlet and the speed selector is
on the OFF position before assembling the stand mixer.
Planetary Mixing Action is a description for the movement of the mixing tools around
the bowl. The tools themselves rotate whilst moving around the inside of the bowl in
such a way that they touch all areas of the bowl. This in turn ensures all ingredients are
thoroughly mixed, offering best results.

Hints and Tips
• 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 task.
• Refrigerated ingredients such as butter and eggs should be at room temperature
before mixing.
• Generally, there is not one set speed for an entire recipe. You will need to change the
speed of the mixer depending on what stage of the recipe you are working on.
• When mixing larger quantities, you may need to increase the mixer speed due to the
amount of mixing required and the larger load on the machine. Do not overll the
mixing bowl, otherwise the mixer motor may overheat.
• When building up a recipe that requires the addition of dry ingredients, such as our,
slow the speed down whilst these ingredients are being added to avoid a snow storm
effect. Once the additional ingredients begin combining then slowly increase to the
appropriate speed for the mixing task.
Recommended Mixing Tools and Speed Levels
Tool Speed Level Type of Mixture
Dough hook 1-4 Heavy mixtures (e.g. bread or pizza
dough, cakes, short pastry or pasta
dough) or mixing minced meat
Flat beater 3-4 Light to normal mixtures (e.g. cake
dough, biscuit mixtures, pancake
batter) or combining/stirring
ingredients
Whisk 5-6 Light mixtures (e.g., whipping cream,
beating eggwhites, whisking eggs,
mayonnaise, sponge cake batter) or
aerating mixtures
