important
●
Some movement of the mixer head is
normal when mixing heavy loads such as
bread dough.
●
If the mixer head is raised during operation, the
machine will stop working straight away. To re-start
the mixer, lower the mixer head, turn the speed
switch to the off position, wait a few seconds and
then re-select the speed. The mixer should resume
operating straight away.
●
If for any reason power to the mixer is interrupted and
the machine stops working, turn the speed switch to
the off position, wait a few seconds and then re-select
the speed. The mixer should resume operating
straight away.

The mixer will not operate unless all the
outlet covers are correctly fitted to the
machine.

h
hints
●
Switch off and scrape the bowl with a spatula when
ecessary.
n
●
Eggs at room temperature are best for whisking.
●
Before whisking egg whites, make sure there’s no
grease or egg yolk on the whisk or bowl.
●
Use cold ingredients for pastry unless your recipe
states otherwise.
●
When creaming fat and sugar for cake mixes, always
use the fat at room temperature or soften it first.
●
Your mixer has been fitted with a ‘soft start’ feature to
minimise spillage. However if the machine is switched
on with a heavy mixture in the bowl such as bread
dough, you may notice that the mixer takes a few
seconds to reach the selected speed.
points for bread making
important
●
Never exceed the maximum capacities stated - you
will overload the machine.
●
Some movement of the mixer head is normal when
mixing heavy loads such as bread dough.
●
The ingredients mix best if you put the liquid in first.
●
At intervals stop the machine and scrape the mixture
off the dough hook.
●
Different batches of flour vary considerably in the
quantities of liquid required and the stickiness of the
dough can have a marked effect on the load imposed
on the machine. You are advised to keep the machine
under observation whilst the dough is being mixed;
the operation should take no longer than 6-8 minutes.

electronic speed sensor control
Your mixer is fitted with an electronic speed sensor
control that is designed to maintain the speed under
different load conditions, such as when kneading
bread dough or when eggs are added to a cake mix.
You may therefore hear some variation in speed
during the operation as the mixer adjusts to the load
and speed selected - this is normal.
