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 let cord hang over edge of
table or counter, or touch hot surfaces,
including stove.
8. 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 tollfree customer assistance number for
information on examination, repair or
electrical or mechanical adjustment.
9. The use of attachments not recommended
or sold by the appliance manufacturer
for use with this model may cause fire,
electric shock or injury.
10. Do not use outdoors.
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 or dough hooks.
BEFORE FIRST USE: Wash bowl, beaters, and
dough hooks in hot, soapy water. Then rinse
and dry.
Consumer Safety Information
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.
CAUTION: Never place mixing bowl in an oven, microwave oven, or on a hot cooking surface.
The mixing bowl is not intended to be used at high temperatures and should never be used
as cookware, ovenware, or bakeware.

Using Your Mixer
How to Assemble the Stand
NOTE: Attach the mixer to the stand
before attaching the beaters or any
other attachments.
1. Set the stand on counter. With the
platform level,
and while holding the mixer
as shown, place
the L-shaped
tab on platform
into the slot on
the bottom of
the mixer.
2. As the mixer is lowered, gently press
the back of the
mixer onto the
platform until
it locks into
place. The
mixer can now
be used as a
stand mixer.
3. To lift the mixer head, squeeze
together
mixer lockdown tabs.
The stand mixer is very convenient for most recipes. However, small amounts–like
one cup of cream–may not contact the beaters in the stand mixer mode. In these
cases we recommend using as a hand mixer.
1. Hold the hand mixer with one hand
and press the
mixer release
button with
the other
hand.
2. Tilt the mixer forward to release from
the stand.
