IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

When using electric appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,

do not put cord, plug, or mixer body in water or other liquid.

3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.

5. Avoid contacting moving parts. Keep hands, hair, and clothing, as well as spatulas and other utensils, away from beaters during operation to reduce risk of injury to persons, and/or damage to mixer.

6. Remove beaters from mixer before washing.

7. Do not operate any appliance with a

damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free customer assistance number for information on examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

8. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer for use with this model may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.

9. Do not use outdoors.

10. Do not let cord hang over edge of

table or counter, or touch hot surfaces, including stove.

11. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

12. Check that control is off before plugging cord into wall outlet. To disconnect, turn control to OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.

13. Do not use appliance for other than intended purpose.

This appliance is intended for household use only.

This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.

WARNING: To reduce risk of personal injury, always unplug mixer before inserting or removing beaters.

BEFORE FIRST USE: Wash attachments in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry.

Mixing Tips

Cookie dough is one of the thickest doughs to mix. Make it easier by following these tips:

• Use a large mixing bowl so that the ingredients spread out for easier mixing.

• Have butter or margarine at room temperature.

• Add ingredients one at a time and thoroughly mix after each addition.

• Add flour one cup at a time.

• To add chips or nuts to a very thick dough or batter, we recommend stirring them in by hand at the very end of the recipe.

Cleaning Your Mixer

1. Always turn off and unplug mixer from electrical outlet before ejecting the attachments.

2. Wash attachments in hot, soapy water; rinse and dry.

3. Wipe the mixer body and cord with a clean, damp cloth.

NOTES:

• Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

• To reduce the risk of electrical shock do not immerse the mixer body or cord in water or other liquid.

• The optional storage case should be wiped clean with a damp cloth. It is not dishwasher safe.

NOTE: Dough hooks should only be used on speeds 3 through 6.
