OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. INSERTING THE ATTACHMENTS
• Before using the mixer, wash the attachments in hot soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry.
• Make sure the on/off button is located in the OFF position and the unit is unplugged from the outlet.
• Insert one attachment at a time by placing the stem end into the opening on the bottom of the mixer. Press
and twist lightly until the attachment clicks into position.
2. MIXING
• Begin blending or mixing at a low speed. Guide the mixer around the sides and through the centre of the
bowl. Follow the speed guide on the facing page.
• Over-beating tends to make some mixtures tough. Stop the mixer as needed to scrape the sides and
bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
• To add ingredients, rest the mixer on its heel with the beaters positioned over the mixing bowl. This assures
any drips will fall back into the bowl. To remove excess mixture from the beaters, set the mixer to the lowest
speed and raise the beaters slowly. Be sure to switch the mixer off before raising the beaters completely
out of the mixing bowl. Maximum operating time 5 minutes. After this time, the appliance has to rest and
cool down before further use.
3. REMOVING ATTACHMENTS
Be sure the cord is unplugged from the electrical outlet. Scrape off excess mixture with a rubber spatula.
Grasp the stems of the attachments with your hand and press firmly down on the eject button.
4. CLEANING
Wash the beaters, whisk or dough hooks in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Wipe the mixer body with a damp cloth. CAUTION: never immerse the mixer in any liquid.
