HINTS AND TIPS
• If you wish to mix larger quantities, remove the mixer from the stand and use it as a
hand mixer with a larger bowl.
• When mixing, if the appliance starts to slow or labour, increase the speed.
• For best results, add liquids to your mixture first.
• Pulse – when used as a hand mixer it can be used at the end of mixing to clean your
attachments. Lift them above your mix, keeping them in the bowl, slide to pulse to
remove excess mixture.
• To re-knead bread dough, remove the mixer from the stand and use as a hand mixer.
• To prevent splattering and flour dusting, attach the splash guard. Lower the beaters/
hooks fully into the mixture before switching the mixer on. When switching it off,
allow the beaters/hooks to stop rotating before you raise the mixer and remove them
from your mixture.
• Replace the beaters/hooks if they show any signs of damage.
•
DO NOT
use the mixer with heavy ingredients as the motor may overheat. If the
appliance seems to be struggling to mix, switch off and unplug the appliance at the
socket and reduce the amount of ingredients in the bowl.
• Always switch off and unplug the appliance before changing the attachments or
removing the mixing bowl from the base unit.
