TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEMS
Please read the following before
calling the service center.
1. The stand mixer may become
warm during use. Under heavy
loads with extended mixing time
periods, you may not be able to
comfortably touch the top of the
stand mixer. This is normal.
2. The stand mixer may emit a
pungent odor, especially when
new. This is common with
electric motors.
3. If the flat beater hits the bowl,
stop the stand mixer. See “Beater
to Bowl Clearance” section.
If your stand mixer should
malfunction or fail to operate,
please check the following:
– Is the stand mixer plugged in?
WARNING
– Turn the stand mixer off for
10-15 seconds, then turn it back
on. If the mixer still does not start,
allow it to cool for 30 minutes
before turning it back on.
If the problem is not due to
one of the above items, see
the KitchenAid
Warranty. Do not return the
stand mixer to the retailer – they
do not provide service.

BEATER TO BOWL CLEARANCE
ENGLISH
Your stand mixer is adjusted at the
factory so the flat beater just clears
the bottom of the bowl. If, for
any reason, the flat beater hits the
bottom of the bowl, or is too far
away from the bowl, you can correct
the clearance easily.
NOTE: Adjustments should be made
only with the flat beater in place.
1. Make sure the speed control
lever is set to the OFF/0 position.
2. Unplug the stand mixer or
disconnect power.
3. Place the bowl-lift lever in the
down position.
4. Attach the mixing bowl and
flat beater.
5. Gently turn screw (A) slightly
counterclockwise to raise the
bowl (reduced beater clearance),
or clockwise to lower the bowl
(increased beater clearance). A
slight turn is all that is required;
the full range of adjustment is
achieved in just
screw. Do not rotate the screw
more than
direction.

6. Raise the bowl into mixing position.
7. Examine the clearance between
the beater and the bowl. The
beater should just clear the
surface of the bowl. If it does
not, lower the bowl and readjust.
NOTE: When properly adjusted,
the flat beater will not strike the
bottom or sides of the bowl while
the mixer is running. If the beater
or professional wire whip strikes the
bowl, damage may result.

MIXING TIPS
Converting Your Recipe
for the Mixer
The following mixing instructions
can help guide you in converting
your own favorite recipes and
mixing methods for use with your
KitchenAid
®
stand mixer.
The “quick mix” method (sometimes
referred to as the “dump” method)
is ideal for simple cake recipes. This
method calls for combining dry
ingredients with most or all-liquid
ingredients in one step.
More elaborate cake recipes should
be prepared using the traditional
cake mixing method commonly
referred to as the “creaming”
method. With this method, sugar
and shortening, butter, or margarine
are thoroughly mixed (creamed)
before other ingredients are added.
For all cakes, mixing times may vary
because your KitchenAid
®
stand mixer
mixes faster than most other mixers.
In general, mixing a cake with a
KitchenAid
®
stand mixer will take
about half the time recommended in
most cake recipes.
To help determine the ideal mixing
time, observe the batter or dough
and mix only until it has the desired
appearance described in your recipe,
such as “smooth and creamy.” To
select the best mixing speed for the
job, use the Speed Control Guide.
Adding Ingredients
Always add ingredients as close to
the side of the bowl as possible, not
directly into the moving beater. The
Pouring Shield* can simplify adding
ingredients. If the ingredients in the
bottom of bowl are not thoroughly
mixed, then the beater-to-bowl
clearance must be adjusted. See
“Beater to Bowl Clearance“ section.
Cake Mixes
When preparing packaged cake
mixes, use Speed 2 for low speed,
Speed 4 for medium speed, and
Speed 6 for high speed. For the best
results, mix for the time stated on
the package directions.
Adding Nuts, Raisins, or
Candied Fruits
Follow individual recipes for
guidelines on including these
ingredients. In general, solid materials
should be folded into the mix during
the last few seconds of mixing on
the STIR Speed. The batter should
be thick enough to keep the fruit or
nuts from sinking to the bottom of
the pan during baking. Sticky fruits
should be dusted with flour for
better distribution in the batter.
Liquid Mixtures
Mixtures containing large amounts
of liquid ingredients should be mixed
at lower speeds to avoid splashing.
Increase the speed only after the
mixture has thickened.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
FOR MIXING AND KNEADING YEAST
DOUGH WITH THE RAPID MIX METHOD
“Rapid Mix” describes a bread baking
method that calls for dry yeast to
be mixed with other dry ingredients
before liquid is added. In contrast,
the traditional method is to dissolve
yeast in warm water.
1. Place all dry ingredients including
yeast into bowl, except last 1 to
2 cups (235 to 475 mL) flour.
2. Attach bowl and dough hook.
Raise mixer bowl. Turn to Speed
2 and mix about 15 seconds, or
until ingredients are combined.
3. Continuing on Speed 2, gradually
add liquid ingredients to flour
mixture and mix 1 to 2 minutes
longer. See Illustration A.
NOTE: If liquid ingredients are added
too quickly, they will form a pool
around the dough hook and slow
down mixing process.
4. Continuing on Speed 2, gently
add remaining flour,
(120 mL) at a time. See
Illustration B. Mix until dough
starts to clean sides of bowl,
about 2 minutes.
5. Knead on Speed 2 for 2 more
minutes, or until dough is
smooth and elastic.
See Illustration C.
6. Lower bowl on mixer and
remove dough from the bowl
and dough hook. Follow
directions in recipe for rising,
shaping and baking.
When using the traditional method
to prepare a favorite recipe, dissolve
yeast in warm water in warmed
bowl. Add remaining liquids and dry
ingredients, except last 1 to 2 cups
(235 to 475 mL) flour. Turn to
Speed 2 and mix about 1 minute,
or until ingredients are thoroughly
mixed. Proceed with steps 4 through 6.

ILLUSTRATION A
ILLUSTRATION B
ILLUSTRATION C
Both methods work equally well
for bread preparation. However,
the “Rapid Mix” method may be a
bit faster and easier for new bread
bakers. It is slightly more temperature
tolerant because the yeast is mixed
with dry ingredients rather than with
warm liquid.

BREAD MAKING TIPS
Making bread with a mixer is quite different from making bread by hand.
Therefore, it will take some practice before you are completely comfortable
with the new process. For your convenience, we offer these tips to help you
become accustomed to bread making the KitchenAid
• Start out with an easy recipe, like
Basic White Bread until you are
familiar with using the dough
hook.
• ALWAYS use the dough hook to
mix and knead yeast doughs.
• Use Speed 2
doughs. Use of any other speed
creates high potential for stand
mixer failure.
• Do not use recipes calling for more
than 14 cups (3.4 L) all-purpose
flour or 8 cups (1.9 L) whole-wheat
flour when making dough with a
6 qt (5.7 L) mixer.
• Do not use recipes calling for more
than 12 cups (3 L) all-purpose flour
or 6 cups (1.5 L) whole-wheat flour
when making dough with a 5 qt
(4.73 L) mixer.
• Use a candy or other kitchen
thermometer to assure that liquids
are at temperature specified
in the recipe. Liquids at higher
temperature can kill yeast, while
liquids at lower temperatures will
retard yeast growth.
• Warm all ingredients to room
temperature to insure proper rising
of dough. If yeast is to be dissolved
in bowl, always warm bowl first by
rinsing with warm water to avoid
cooling of liquids.
• Allow bread to rise in a warm
place, 80°F to 85°F (26°C to 29°C),
free from draft, unless otherwise
specified in recipe.
• Here are some alternative rising
methods to use: (1) The bowl
to mix or knead yeast
containing the dough can be
placed on a wire rack over a pan
of hot water. (2) The bowl can
be placed on the top rack of an
unheated oven; put a pan of hot
water on the rack below. (3) Turn
the oven to 400°F (200°C) for
1 minute; then turn it off; place
the bowl on the center rack of the
oven and close the door.
• Cover bowl with waxed paper, if
desired. Always cover with towel to
retain warmth in the bowl and to
keep drafts away from the dough.
• Recipe rising times may vary due
to temperature and humidity in
your kitchen. Dough has doubled
in bulk when indentation remains
after tips of fingers are pressed
lightly and quickly into dough.
• Most bread recipes give a range
for the amount of flour to be used.
Enough flour has been added
when the dough starts to clean
sides of bowl. If dough is sticky or
humidity is high, slowly add more
flour, about
at a time but do not exceed
recommended flour capacity.
Knead after each addition until
flour is completely worked into
dough. If too much flour is added,
a dry loaf will result.
• When done, yeast breads and rolls
should be deep golden brown in
color. Other tests for doneness of
breads are: Bread pulls away from
the sides of pan, and tapping
on the top of the loaf produces
a hollow sound. Turn loaves and
rolls onto racks immediately after
baking to avoid sogginess.

SHAPING A LOAF
Divide dough in half. On lightly
floured surface, roll each half
into a rectangle, approximately
9 x 14" (22.5 x 35 cm). A rolling pin
will smooth dough and remove gas
bubbles.
Starting at a short end, roll dough
tightly. Pinch dough to seal seam.
Pinch ends and turn under. Place,
seam side down, in loaf pan.
Follow directions in recipe for rising
and baking.
