To reduce the risk of personal injury, always unplug mixer
before inserting or removing attachments.

NOTE: FOLD setting is manual.
To use, turn speed control to
FOLD and hold. To stop, release.
Folding is a method used to
incorporate more air into the
mixtures. Slowly add food to be
folded in while pulsing the FOLD
setting on and off. Fold just until
mixture is combined. Do not
overmix, since that would dispel
the air. Used for folding in
whipped cream or egg whites.

To remove attachment, pull
straight down.

Mixing Guide The following mixing guide is a suggestion for selecting mixing speeds. Begin on
Speed 1 and increase to desired speed, depending on the recipe consistency.
• Place liquid ingredients in bowl first and then add dry ingredients.
• Always stay near mixer during use.
• To begin mixing, use the lower speeds until the ingredients are
thoroughly combined. This will reduce splattering.
• Always add ingredients as close to the sides of the bowl as
possible, not directly into the moving attachment.
• When preparing package cake mixes, use Speed 1 for low speed,
Speed 4 for medium speed, and Speed 6 for high speed. For best
results, mix for the time stated on the package directions.
• Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid ingredients should be
mixed at lower speeds to avoid splashing. Increase speed only after
the mixture has thickened.
• When mixing thin batters, use medium speeds and frequently stop
the mixer to scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula.

Flat Beater Tips
Dough Hook Tips
Flat beater is used for most of your mixing needs.
Use the flat beater attachment to mix cakes, cookie dough, fudge, or potatoes.
Cookie dough is one of the thickest doughs to mix. Make it easier by following these tips:
• Have butter or margarine at room temperature.
• Add ingredients one at a time, thoroughly mixing after each addition.
• Add flour one cup at a time.
• If the mixer seems to struggle, increase the speed setting.
Dough hook is for recipes that requires kneading.
• The mixer head locks down for thorough mixing.
• When mixing thin batters, use medium speeds and frequently stop the mixer to scrape the sides of the bowl with a
spatula. Place liquid ingredients in the bowl first and then add dry ingredients.
• Always stay near mixer during use.
• If a spoon is accidentally caught in an attachment or the motor stalls, turn the speed control to OFF (O) and then unplug.
Clear the obstruction or reduce the amount of mixture in the bowl. Let the motor cool for 5 minutes before continuing.

• The whisk is designed to whip liquids, such as egg whites and cream. Do not use the whisk for mixing thick mixtures,
such as dough, fudge, or mashed potatoes.
• Your mixer is designed to whisk a minimum of 2 large egg whites or 1 cup of cream. Mixer performance is enhanced as
the tip of the whisk is immersed into the liquid. If smaller quantities are needed, a hand mixer is recommended.
Whisk Tips
EGG WHITES
Place egg whites in a clean, dry mixing bowl. Attach bowl and whisk.
To avoid splashing, gradually turn speed control to desired speed.
See chart below.
AMOUNT SPEED
2 to 4 egg whites up to 10
6 or more egg whites up to 8
Your stand mixer whips egg whites quickly. Watch carefully to avoid
overwhipping. Here is what to expect:
Frothy: Large, uneven air bubbles.
Begins to Hold Shape: Air bubbles are fine and compact; product
is white.
Soft Peak: Tips of peaks fall over when whisk is removed.
Almost Stiff: Sharp peaks form when whisk is removed, but
whites are still soft.
Stiff But Not Dry: Sharp, stiff peaks form when whisk is removed.
Whites are uniform in color and glisten.
Stiff and Dry: Sharp, stiff peaks form when whisk is removed.
Whites are speckled and dull in appearance.
WHIPPED CREAM
Pour cold whipping cream into chilled bowl. Attach bowl and whisk.
To avoid splashing, gradually turn to designated speed and whip to
desired stage. See chart below.
AMOUNT SPEED
1 cup up to 10
1 pint up to 8
Your stand mixer whips cream very quickly. Watch cream closely
during whipping because there are just a few seconds between
whipping stages. Look for these characteristics:
Begins to Thicken: Cream is thick and custard-like.
Holds Its Shape: Cream forms soft peaks when whisk is removed.
Can be folded into other ingredients when making desserts and
sauces.
Stiff: Cream stands in stiff, sharp peaks when whisk is removed.
Use for topping on cakes or desserts, or filling for cream puffs.

PROBLEM
Food is not mixed.
Food splatters during
mixing.
Mixer “walks” on counter
during mixing.
PROBABLE CAUSE
• Place liquid ingredients in bowl before adding dry ingredients.
• Stop mixer and scrape sides of bowl.
• Increase speed.
• Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid ingredients should be mixed at lower speeds to avoid
splashing. Increase speed only after the mixture has thickened.
• Reduce speed.
• Reduce quantity of ingredients in bowl.
• Make sure countertop is clean. This allows the suction cups to grip countertop and reduce mixer
movement.
