Helpful Hints
• Never scrape down sides of bowl while mixer
is in operation. If scraping is necessary, rst
turn the mixer OFF.
• When mixing liquid ingredients, always starts
off at the lowest speed to avoid splattering.
• Prior to mixing any ingredients, the mixer bowl
and wire whisk must be very clean and dry.
• When making mousse, don’t overbeat your
egg whites or your cream. If the egg whites
are beaten too dry, they’ll fall apart; if the
cream is overbeaten, it won’t blend evenly
through the mousse.
• When making whipped creams, rst chill the
bowl and the whisk.
• Do not over-knead dough. Over-kneading will
prevent the dough from rising.
• If adding dry ingredients through the splash
guard, rst measure ingredients onto a piece
of parchment paper, then form a cone
with the paper to add ingredients through
opening.
• Refrigerated ingredients, such as butter and
eggs, then should be at room temperature
before mixing begins. Set these ingredients
out ahead of time.
• To eliminate the possibility of shells or
deteriorated-off eggs in your recipe, break
eggs into separate container rst, then add to
the mixture.
• Do not over-beat. Be careful that you only
mix/blend mixtures as recommended in your
recipe.
Care and Cleaning
1. Make sure speed selector dial is turned to the
OFF position and mixer is unplugged.
2. Raise the mixer head to the “up” locked
position.
3. Remove the bowl, splash guard and
attachments.
4. The Bowl, at beater, dough hook, whisk, and
splash guard should be washed in hot, soapy
water. Then rinse under running water and
wipe dry. Dry all parts thoroughly before storing.
