HINTS AND TIPS
• Generally, large quantities, thick mixes, and a high ratio of solids to liquids
need longer mixing times at slower speeds.
• Smaller quantities, thinner mixes, and more liquids than solids need
shorter mixing times at higher speeds.
• Use the beaters for beating/aerating light dough, batter, egg whites and
cream.
• Use the hooks for mixing heavier dough (e.g. bread, fruit-cake).
• When making dough, use your mixer only for mixing the ingredients. Don’t
use it for kneading. You’ll overload it and damage the motor.
• If the motor starts to labour, add more liquid to the mix, if possible, or
switch off and carry on by hand.

2. Disassemble the appliance.
