In honor of their 100-year legacy, we’ve combined the “built to last” metal construction of the past with the styling of today to bring lasting quality and style to your kitchen.

As you use your all-metal appliance, think about the history that came before it. Enjoy the confidence you have in a product backed by years of experience and a 3-year warranty. But most of all, fill your home with the delicious aroma of homemade recipes that your appliance helps you create!

I hope you enjoy your Hamilton Beach

Eclectrics™appliance for many

years to come.

Sincerely,

Michael J. Morecroft President and Chief Executive Officer Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc.

Consumer Safety Information

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

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

1. Read all instructions.

2. To protect against risk of electrical

shock, do not put cord, plug, or any portion of the mixer 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 beater 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 toll-free customer service number for information on examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

9. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc. 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is intended for household use only.

This appliance is equipped with a groundedtype 3-wire cord (3-prong plug). This type of plug will only fit into an electrical outlet made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If the plug should fail to fit contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the grounding pin by modifying the plug in any way.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating

of the mixer. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

An extension cord should be connected to the appliance first, before it is plugged into the outlet.

To avoid an electrical circuit overload do not use another high wattage appliance on the same circuit with the mixer.

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

BEFORE FIRST USE: Wash the bowl, two-piece pouring shield, and all mixing attachments in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry.

How to Use Your Mixer

How to Set the Speed Control

Plug mixer into a properly-grounded

electrical outlet. Speed Control should always be set on lowest speed for starting, then gradually moved to desired higher

speed to avoid splashing ingredients out of bowl. See the chart below for suggested speed control settings.

Electronic Speed Sensor Control

The Mixer has an Electronic Speed Sensor Control that is designed to maintain the same speed under different load conditions (such as when flour is added to a batter). You might hear slight speed variations as the Mixer electronically adjusts to the speed at which it is set.
