Cleaning and Maintenance
Before first use and after every use, clean each part thoroughly.
Once you have finished mixing, turn the control dial to the ‘0/Off’ position and unplug the
power cord from the mains.

Power Unit
The housing base can be wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth. Never use an abrasive
cleaner or harsh pad. Do not immerse in water.
n
Work bowl
Remove the work bowl from the Stand Mixer before washing. The bowl can be washed by
hand or in the dishwasher. Never use a wire brush, steel wool or bleach.
n
Attachments
Remove the attachments from the Stand Mixer before washing. The mixing paddle, dough
hook, splash guard and pour spout can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher (place
on the top shelf).
Note: The chef’s whisk is not dishwasher safe and should be washed by hand. All
attachments should be dried thoroughly before storing.
E Troubleshooting
If the stand mixer will not start please ensure the mixer head is in the lowered position and
has firmly located into position. Do not allow the full weight of the mixer head to fall into
the lower position without supporting it as this could damage the appliance.
If the stand mixer shuts off, the unit may have overheated. Your stand mixer has an
overload protection device, it will shut down to protect the motor.
In the unlikely event that this happens:
n
Turn off the mixer and unplug from the socket.
n
Reduce the load by removing some of the ingredients, and allow the mixer to stand for
a few minutes.
n
Plug in and reset the speed. If the stand mixer does not start when you turn the speed
dial on, allow the unit to stand for additional time.
