SPEED CONTROL GUIDE & MIXING TIPS
1 Stir STIRRING:
For slow stirring, combining, mashing, starting all mixing procedures. Use to add flour and d
ry ingredients to batter, add liquids to dry ingredients, and combine heavy mixtures.
1-2 SLOW MIXING:
For slow mixing, mashing, faster stirring. Use to mix heavy batters and candies, start mashin
g potatoes or other vegetables, cut shortening into flour, mix thin or splashy batters, and mix
7/ 12
and knead yeast dough.
3-4 MIXING, BEATING:
For mixing semi-
heavy batters, such as cookies. Use to combine sugar and shortening and to add sugar to egg
whites for meringues. Medium speed for cake mixes.
5 BEATING, CREAMING
For medium fast beating (creaming) or whipping. Use to finish mixing cake, doughnut, and o
ther batters. High speed for cake mixes.
6 FAST BEATING, WHIPPING
For whipping cream, egg whites, and boiled frostings.
NOTE: Mixer may not maintain fast speeds under heavy load.
NOTE: The Speed Dial can be set between the speeds listed in the above chart to obtain
speeds 3, 5, if a finer adjustment is required.
MIXING TIPS
NOTE: Do not scrape the bowl while the Stand Mixer is operating.
The bowl and beater are designed to provide thorough mixing without frequent scraping.
Scraping the bowl once or twice during mixing is usually sufficient. Turn the Stand Mixer off
before scraping.
The Stand Mixer may warm up during use. Under heavy load with extended mixing time, you
may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the Stand Mixer. This is normal.
Adding Ingredients
Always add ingredients as close to side of bowl as possible, not directly into the moving
beater. The Pouring Shield can be used to simplify adding ingredients.
Cake Mixes
When preparing packaged cake mixes, use Speed 2 for low speed, Speed 4 for medium speed,
and Speed 6 for high speed. For best results, mix for the time state on the package directions.
Liquid Mixtures
Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid ingredients should be mixed at lower speeds to
avoid splashing. Increase mixer speed only after the mixture has thickened.
Mix or Knead Dough:
1. Attach Dough Hook to the beater connector, mix flour and water at a ratio of 5 ：3. Flour
max. 1200g and water max. 720g.
8/ 12
2. Do not use the dough hook longer than 30 seconds continuously at speed 1 or 2, and 3
minutes continuously at speed level 3.
3. When filling the mixing bowl, please ensure that the maximum quantity is not exceeded.
Whipping Egg Whites or Cream:
Place room temperature egg whites in a clean, dry bowl. Attach bowl and Wire Whisk. To avoid
splashing, start whipping at speed 1 for 30 seconds. Then, turn to speed 4 to speed 6, whip the
egg whites without stopping for about 5 minutes until stiff. Maximum quantity of egg whites
is 24.
To whip cream, whip 250ml fresh cream at speed 4 to 6 for about 5 minutes. When filling the
mixing bowl with fresh milk, cream or other ingredients, please make sure the ingredients do
not exceed the maximum quantity.
CARE AND CLEANING
Bowl, Flat Beater, Mixing Blade, Wire Whisk and Dough Hook may be washed in an
automatic dishwasher. Or, clean them thoroughly in hot sudsy water and rinse completely
before drying.
NOTE: Always be sure to unplug the Stand Mixer before cleaning. Wipe the Stand Mixer with
a soft, damp cloth. Do not use household or commercial cleaners. Do not immerse in water.
Wipe off the beater connector frequently, removing any residue that may accumulate.
TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEMS
Please read the following before calling your service center.
1. The Stand Mixer may warm up during use. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time
periods, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the Stand Mixer. This is normal.
2. The Stand Mixer may emit a pungent odor, especially when new. This is common with
electric motors.
3. If the Flat Beater hits the bowl, stop the Stand Mixer.
