CARE AND CLEANING
SUGGESTED RECIPES
1. Remove kneading hook, stirrer, whisk and/or other attachments. Wash the
attachments in hot, soapy water. Rinse with clean water. Washing these items before
food has a chance to harden makes it much easier to clean them.
2. Remove the mixing bowl. Rinse out the mixing bowl and place it on the top rack of
your dishwasher, or wash the mixing bowl by hand.
3. Clean the surface of the electric mixer. After unplugging the mixer, use a damp
washcloth or sponge dipped in soapy water to wipe down the body of the mixer. Make
sure to wring out the washcloth or sponge thoroughly before wiping the mixer to avoid
getting water into the motor unit.
4. Turn over the mixer and clean underneath the base and below the mixing arm. Scrub
the attachment ports, making sure to look for food trapped just inside the ports. Clean
around the mixer's buttons. If tiny bits of food have accumulated there, use a toothpick
to remove them.
5. Dry the attachments immediately after washing if you are washing them by hand.
Place attachments in a drawer or cabinet to avoid losing any crucial components. Put
the hand mixer or the stand mixer and bowl in a safe place until you are ready to use
them again.
