FITTING THE BEATERS/HOOKS
1. Switch off (0) and unplug the mixer before fitting or removing the beaters/hooks.
2. Turn each whisk or hook to align the pips on the shaft with the slots in the drive head, then
push it into the drive head till it clicks into place.
3. Each whisk/hook must be fitted into a specific drive head.
4. Insert the one with the flange into the left-hand drive head (looking up from under the
mixer fig. A).
5. Use both beaters or both hooks, don’t mix them.
REMOVING THE BEATERS/HOOKS
1. Switch off (0) and unplug the mixer, then shake any excess mixture into the mixing bowl.
2. Hold both beaters/hooks, to prevent them jumping out, and press . This will eject them
from the drive heads.
USING THE MIXER
1. Move the speed control to 0.
2. Put the plug into the power socket.
3. Move the speed control to the speed you require (1 to 5).
4. Pressing the turbo button
will over-ride the speed set by the speed control, and give
you a burst of high speed. It only works when the motor is already running (1 to 5).
5. Move the speed control to 0 to switch off.
• Generally, large quantities, thick mixes, and a high ratio of solids to liquids suggest longer
timings and slower speeds.
• Smaller quantities, thinner mixes, and more liquids than solids suggest shorter timings
and higher speeds.
• Use the beaters for beating/aerating light dough and batter.
• Use the hooks for mixing heavier dough (e.g. bread, fruit-cake).
• When making dough, use the mixer only for mixing the ingredients. Don’t use it for
kneading. You’ll overload it and damage the motor.
• Don’t run the motor continuously for more than 5 minutes, it may overheat. After 5
minutes switch off for at least 5 minutes, to recover.
• If the motor starts to labour, add more liquid to the mix, if possible, or switch off and carry
on by hand.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Switch the appliance off (0) and unplug it.
2. Clean the outside surfaces of the appliance with a damp cloth.
Wash the beaters and hooks in hot soapy water, or in the cutlery basket of your dishwasher.
DISPOSAL/RECYCLING
Legislation in some localities mandates that e-waste (anything with a plug, battery or cord)
is disposed of through controlled recycling facilities and must not be disposed of in general
household waste. For more information about recycling of electrical and battery operated
appliances, please contact your local council or your local household waste disposal service.
