Count-down timer
The count-down timer is especially useful
when following a recipe that specifies mixing
times.
The
‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons allow you to choose
the desired mixing duration. Press the
‘+’ button and you will add 30 seconds.
Press the
‘-’ button and you will reduce the
previously set mixing time by 30 seconds.
For example, if a recipe calls to “beat for
2 minutes”, you can set the count-down
timer to 2 minutes. Simply press the
‘+’
button until
“02:00” is displayed on the LCD
screen, i.e. press the
‘+’ button four times.
If you would like to change the countdown
time after your initial setup, press the
button, then press the
‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons to
increase or reduce the mixing time to the
nearest 30 sec increment.
For example, you set the count-down timer
to 3 minutes and turn the speed control dial
to start mixing on a chosen speed. After 1
minute, 25 seconds, you pause the mixer by
pressing the
button. The LCD displays
the remaining count-down time of 01:35. If
you now press the
‘+’ button once to increase
the mixing time, the display will show 02:00
(which is the nearest 30 sec increment).
To reset the timer to
“00:00”, turn the speed
control dial anti-clockwise to the
“0” location
or, when paused, press the
‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons
simultaneously.
When the chosen mixing time is completed,
the mixer will beep twice to inform you that
the time has expired. It will stop mixing
automatically. The timer display
“00:00”
and the LCD screen will flash for about 5
seconds. The LCD screen will display the
speed setting that it stopped at and this
setting will continue to flash.
If you need to resume mixing, simply press
the
button or, alternatively, reset the
mixer by turning the dial to “0”, and then
turn the dial clockwise.
Kitchen Timer function
The timer function can be used without
mixing as a kitchen timer or stopwatch.
Timer: Set the time as described in the
Count-down timer section on page 9, then
press the
button while the dial is in
“0”
(i.e. no speed selected).
When the set time expires, the mixer
will beep and the LCD screen will flash
continuously until the
button is pressed.
Stopwatch: Simply press the
button
whilst in
“0” (i.e. no speed selected). The
maximum time the LCD screen can display
is 90 minutes and will be displayed on the
LCD screen as
“90:00” (ninety minutes, zero
seconds).
When the maximum time has been reached,
the mixer will beep and the time display on
the LCD screen will flash continuously until
the
button is pressed.
To reset the timer to zero
(“00:00”), press
the
button, then press the
‘+’ and ‘-’
buttons simultaneously.
