SUGGESTIONS FOR USE
Refrigerated ingredients, i.e. Butter and eggs should be at room temperature
before mixing begins. Set these ingredients out ahead of time.

9
To eliminate the possibility of shells or rotten eggs in your recipe, break the eggs
into a separate container first, check them and then add them to the mixture.
Do not over-beat. Be careful that you only mix/ blend mixtures until recommended
in your recipe. Fold into dry ingredients only until they are “just” combined. Always
use a low speed.
Climatic conditions. Seasonal temperature changes, temperature of ingredients and
their texture variation from area to area all play a part in the required mixing time
and the results achieved.
Always start mixing at slow speeds. Gradually increase to the recommended speed
as stated in the recipe.
Move the beaters gently around the mixture to ensure uniform results.
If you want to clean the sides and base of the mixing bowl/ container with a hand-
held utensil, first switch the machine to “0” / “OFF”.
To avoid unnecessary splashing, immerse the beaters into the mixture before
switching the appliance ON.
Unplug the appliance when not in use, before fitting or removing the beaters and
before cleaning it.
Avoid coming into contact with moving parts. Keep hands, hair, clothes, as well as
spatulas and other utensils away during operation to prevent injury and/or damage
to the appliance.
The speed can be adjusted at any time. Starting from “0” / “OFF” and then adjusting
the speed to the food type being mixed. For thicker mixtures, a low speed is
recommended. For fine consistency, use the high-speed settings.
Hints for beating egg whites:-
Be sure that the bowl and beaters are clean.
Be sure that there is no egg yolk in the egg white.
Egg whites should be at room temperature for maximum volume.
Use a high setting.
Beating time will vary according to the freshness of the eggs.

10
Hints for whipping cream:-
Use heavy cream.
Chill cream before whipping.
Use a deep bowl.
For best results, chill both beaters and bowl.
Start beating at a low speed to prevent spatter, increase to high as cream thickens.
Beating time will vary according to the fat content, age and temperature of the
cream.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
This stand bowl mixer is for household use only and is not user-serviceable.
Do not open or change any parts by yourself. Please refer to a qualified electrical
service department or return to the supplier if servicing is necessary.
Always remember to unplug the unit from the electrical outlet when not in use and
before cleaning. Ensure that the speed control is set to “0” / “OFF”.
It is much easier to clean the beaters/dough hooks and bowl directly after they have
been used. Wash them in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry well.
The body of the hand mixer should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Do not let water
enter the hand mixer.
Do not use bleach or other abrasive substance or solvents to clean your hand mixer
as it can be damaging to the finish.
Do not immerse the mixer in water or any other liquid, or hold it under a running tap
to clean.
