IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electric appliances, basic
safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
1.
Read all instructions.
2.
To protect against risk of electrical
shock, do not put cord, plug, or any
portion of the mixer in water or other
liquid.
3.
Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near
children.
4.
Unplug from outlet when not in use,
before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning.
5.
Avoid contacting moving parts. Keep
hands, hair, and clothing, as well as
spatulas and other utensils, away from
beater during operation to reduce risk
of injury to persons, and/or damage to
mixer.
6.
Remove beaters from mixer before
washing.
7.
Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter, or touch hot surfaces,
including stove.
8.
Do not operate any appliance with
a damaged cord or plug, or after the
appliance malfunctions or is dropped
or damaged in any manner. Call our
toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair, or
electrical or mechanical adjustment.
9.
The use of attachments not
recommended or sold by Hamilton
Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc. for use with
this model may cause fire, electric
shock or injury.
10.

electric burner, or in a heated oven.
12.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for
household use only.
This appliance is equipped with a grounded-
type 3-wire cord (3-prong plug). This type
of plug will only fit into an electrical outlet
made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety
feature intended to help reduce the risk of
electrical shock. If the plug should fail to fit
contact a qualified electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety purpose of the grounding pin by
modifying the plug in any way.
The length of the cord used on this appli-
ance was selected to reduce the hazards
of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a
longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary
an approved extension cord may be used.
The electrical rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the rating
of the mixer. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or
accidentally tripped over.
An extension cord should be connected to
the appliance first, before it is plugged into
the outlet.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload do
not use another high wattage appliance on
the same circuit with the mixer.
WARNING:
To reduce risk of personal
injury, always unplug mixer before inserting
or removing beaters.
BEFORE FIRST USE:
Wash the bowl,
two-piece pouring shield, and all mixing
attachments in hot, soapy water. Rinse
and dry.
