Operating the Hand Mixer
Do not leave the mixer plugged in if it is not in use!
1.
Before plugging in your mixer for the first time, wash the whisk, beaters or dough
hooks in hot soapy water or in a dishwasher. Rinse and dry them.
2.
Leave the mixer unplugged and make sure the speed dial is set to 0.
3.
Insert the whisk, beaters or dough hooks one at a time by placing the stem into
the opening on the bottom of the mixer. Turn them until the notches line up with
the opening on the mixer. Push them in until they click into position.
Note: There is one whisk provided with the mixer. Do not attach a beater or
dough hook along with the whisk. Only use the whisk by itself.
4.
Plug the unit into an appropriate outlet near the prepared ingredients. Place
the mixer with the ingredients and start the mixer by moving the speed dial to 1,
which is the lowest speed.
5.
Gradually increase the speed setting if needed.
Speed 1 is the lowest; speed 5 is highest.
6.
When mixing is complete, set the speed dial back to 0. This stops the motor.
Make sure the motor and all moving parts have completely stopped before raising
the whisk, beaters or dough hooks out of the mixing bowl.
7.
Unplug the unit. When the speed dial is set to 0, you can press down on the
dial to eject/release the beaters, whisk or hooks. Never eject while the mixer is
plugged in.
Before ejecting, you may wish to gently tap the beaters, dough hooks, or whisk on
the side of the bowl to remove any excess mixture.
To prevent the mixer from overheating, do not operate it for more than five
minutes at a time. Turn the mixer off, unplug it, and allow it to cool down for 5
minutes when using it for an extended period of time.
Additional Operating Instructions and Tips
SPEED SETTINGS
•
Speed settings 1 and 2 are commonly used when stirring liquid ingredients or
when mixing dry and liquid ingredients together in a recipe. This would include
things like instant pudding.
•
Speed settings 3 and 4 are used when preparing cake mixes or for recipes that call
for a medium speed, like when mixing butter and sugar into a cream.
•
Speed setting 5 is used for whipping egg whites.
•
When a higher setting is needed, always begin mixing at slow speeds first, then
build up to the higher setting.
