IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
■Read all instructions.
■To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse mixer,
cord, plug, or base unit in water or other liquid.
■Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children.
■Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking
off parts, and before cleaning.
■Avoid contacting moving parts. Keep hands, hair, clothing, and
handheld spatulas and other utensils away from beaters/whisks
during operation to prevent injury and/or damage to the mixer.
■Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or
after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any
manner. Return the appliance to an authorized service center
for examination, repair, or adjustment.
■The use of attachments not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may cause injuries.
■Do not use outdoors.
■Do not let cord hang over the edge of table or counter or touch
hot surfaces.
■Remove beaters/whisks and spatula attachment from mixer
before washing.
■Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
■Mixing flammable non-food substances may be hazardous.
2

■Do not operate in the presence of explosive and/or flammable
fumes.
■This product is intended for household use only and not for com-
mercial or industrial use.
■Do not abuse the cord. Never carry the mixer by the cord or
yank the cord to disconnect it from an outlet; instead, grasp the
plug and pull to disconnect.
■Do not attempt to repair the mixer yourself; instead take it to a
Black & Decker (U.S.) Inc. Household Appliance Company-
Owned or Authorized Service Center for repair. Call the toll-free
“800” number listed on the cover of this book for the location of
the Service Center nearest you.
POLARIZED PLUG This appliance has a polarized plug—
one blade is wider than the other. To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this
plug will fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully
into the outlet, reverse it. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to defeat this safety
feature by modifying the plug in any
way.

(such as mixing cookie dough), just
press the Power Boost Button to get
the maximum mixing performance.
As soon as the Power Boost Button
is released, the Mixer will return to
the speed setting you were previ-
ously using.
BEATER EJECT LEVER
The Spatula Smart® Mixer fea-
tures a convenient Beater Eject
Lever which is located below the
handle. It allows for easy release
of the Beaters/Whisks using the
index finger. (Figure B)
LARGE BEATERS
The large Beaters help you get
fast, thorough mixing results. The
Beaters are dishwasher-safe for
easy cleanup.
BONUS WHISKS (MODEL M175W ONLY)
The Whisks are perfect for whip-
ping cream or eggs. They are
especially useful when making
meringue, omelets, fluffy angel
food cake, or mousse. Like the
Beaters, the Whisks are
dishwasher-safe.
SPATULA ATTACHMENT
The Spatula Attachment is used with
the Beaters and allows you to scrape
dry ingredients and batter from the
bowl sides continuously while mix-
ing. It snaps off for easy dishwasher
or soap and water cleaning.

1. Before using the Beaters, be
sure the Mixer is unplugged and
the Speed Control Switch is in the
OFF position. To insert a Beater,
grasp the Mixer with one hand and
the Beater stem with the other.
Insert the Beater into the opening;
you may have to rotate it slightly
until it locks into place. Use the
same method when inserting the
Whisks (Model M175W only).
Repeat for the other Beater/Whisk.
2. Plug the Cord into an outlet.
3. Place the ingredients into a
bowl, grip the Mixer handle, and
position the Beaters/Whisks in the
center of the food to be mixed.
4. Select the appropriate speed
setting for the task. See the
“Mixing Guide” on page 9.
5. Guide the Beaters/Whisks con-
tinuously through the mixture for
uniform mixing. Whenever you
wish to scrape the sides and bot-
tom of the bowl using a handheld
utensil, be sure to turn the Speed

Control Switch OFF. Place the
Mixer on the Heel Rest so that
batter can drain into the bowl.
(Figure C)
6. To remove the Beaters/Whisk,
push the Beater Eject Lever up
with your index finger of one hand,
then pull the Beater/Whisk out of
the Mixer with the other hand.
Use the Spatula Attachment during
mixing to scrape dry ingredients or
batter from the bowl as you mix. It
is designed for use when mixing
thin (pudding, pancake batter) to
medium batters (cake mixes,
muffins, frosting) and for whipping
mashed potatoes. It is not recom-
mended when beating egg whites,
whipping cream, or when mixing
thick cookie dough. Do NOT use
the Spatula Attachment with the
Whisks (Model M175W only).
1. Insert the Beaters into the
Mixer. Be sure the Mixer is
unplugged and the speed control
Switch is in the OFF position.
USING THE SPATULA
ATTACHMENT
Figure C

2. Hold the Mixer by the handle
with the Beaters facing forward.
The Spatula attachment should be
positioned so that the Spatula is to
the right of the Beaters.
3. Weave the top of the Spatula
Attachment under the left Beater
shaft and over the right Beater
shaft. The word “Front” on the
Attachment should face out from
the front of the Mixer. Snap the
Attachment onto the Beater shafts.
(Figure D)
4. As you mix, place the front edge
of the Spatula Attachment against
the side of the bowl and move it
forward slowly along the side of
bowl to scrape away buildup and
blend ingredients or batter back
into the Beaters. (Figure E)
NOTE: If the Spatula Attachment
detaches during use, be sure to
turn OFF the Mixer before attempt-
ing to reattach the Spatula to the
Beaters.

Mixing Guide
Care and Cleaning

1. Be sure the Speed Control Switch is in the OFF
position before cleaning any part of the Mixer.
Unplug the cord and eject the Beaters/Whisks.
Remove the Spatula Attachment, if used.
2. The Beaters, Whisks (Model M175W only), and
Spatula Attachment may be washed in hot, sudsy
water or in a dishwasher. Be sure to dry all parts
thoroughly before storing.
3. Clean the Mixer or cord with a damp cloth. To
remove stubborn spots, wipe surfaces with a cloth
dampened in sudsy water or a mild, non-abrasive
cleaner. Follow with a clean, damp cloth. Do not
use abrasive cleaners on any part of the Mixer as
they can damage the finish.
1. For longer life, avoid jerking the Power Cord or
straining it at the plug connection. To store, coil the
Cord in loops and secure it with a twist tie. Do not
wrap the cord around the Mixer.
2. Store the Beaters, Whisks (Model M175W only),
and Spatula Attachment in a drawer or in the origi-
nal packaging.
HOW TO BEAT EGG WHITES
• Beaters/Whisks and bowl must be clean.
• Be sure there is no egg yolk in the egg whites.
• For maximum volume, egg whites should be at
room temperature.

THE MIXER
Mixing Tips

• Beat at the highest speed (Whip #5) until egg
whites are the desired consistency.
• Beating time varies with the freshness of eggs.
NOTE: For best results when beating egg whites,
do not use an aluminum or plastic bowl. Use a
stainless steel, copper, or glass bowl.
HOW TO WHIP CREAM
• Chill the cream, Beaters, and bowl.
• Start with the lowest setting (to minimize splatter)
as the cream begins to thicken, gradually
increase to WHIP (Setting #5).
• Whipping time varies with fat content, age,
and temperature of cream.
NOTE: The Spatula Attachment is NOT recom-
mended for use when whipping cream as volume
may be reduced.
