3.4 Functions
Safety lock system
The appliance has a safety system which
automatically shuts off the appliance when
the motor head is raised.
You should nevertheless always
place the speed selector in the 0
(OFF) position before pressing the
button to move the motor head.
Smooth Start Function
The Smooth Start function starts the
appliance up with a reduced initial speed,
regardless of the speed set with the
selector.
The speed progressively increases until the
set speed is reached.
This avoids damage to the appliance and
the accessories, and ensures ingredients
are not thrown from the bowl.
Planetary movement
The planetary movement is generated by
rotation (1) of the accessory around its axis
in the opposite direction to the rotary
movement (2) of the mixer.
This movement maximises coverage of the
entire bowl with consistent results for all
mixtures.

The table should be taken as a

The speed and capacity depend
on the accessory used, the quantity
of mixture in the bowl and the
ingredients used.
Use
General advice
• Never exceed the maximum speed and
capacity indicated in the table in order to
prevent damage to the appliance.
• Turn on the appliance at a low speed
until all the ingredients are mixed, then
increase the speed on the basis of the
required operation.
• When adding ingredients, always pour
them onto the edge of the bowl and not
directly onto the moving accessory.
• Reduce the speed when you add dry or
liquid ingredients to stop them splattering.
Increase the speed again when they
have been mixed.
• Use the pouring shield* on the bowl for
liquid mixtures or when adding dry
ingredients to avoid getting objects in the
vicinity of the stand mixer dirty or being
hit by splattered liquids or powder.
• Keep the bowl and accessories clean,
and attach them to the appliance only
when they are perfectly dry.
• Clean the head and body of the mixer
carefully using a damp cloth if they are
dirty.
Tips for whisking egg whites
• For the best results, use egg whites at
room temperature.
• Before whisking the egg whites, ensure
that the accessory and bowl are not
damp or greasy and that they have no
trace of yolk on them.
• To prevent splattering, gradually
increase the speed up to the
recommended speed, then whisk until
you achieve the required stiffness.
• The stand mixer allows very rapid
whisking of egg whites. Pay close
attention to the process to avoid overwhisking the egg whites, which would
result in separation.
Tips for whipping cream
• For the best results, use cold whipping or
double cream straight out of the fridge.
• To prevent splattering, gradually
increase the speed up to the
recommended speed, then whip until
you achieve the required consistency.
• When whisking a quantity equivalent to
one litre of liquid cream, start at a speed
of 7-8 for the first minute, or at least until
it starts thickening. Then increase the
speed to 10 for the remaining time.
IT
EN
*Standard only on certain models. Also available as an optional accessory.
49
Use
Recommendations for recipes using eggs
• For the best results, use eggs at room
temperature.
• When working with stiff pasta doughs,
do not exceed the quantity of 3 medium
eggs, adding small quantities of water if
necessary.
Recommendations for kneading
• Make sure that the proportion of liquids
in doughs is sufficient (at least 50-60% of
the quantity of flour, by weight). Doughs
which are too dry and therefore stiff can
overload the motor.
• If the appliance is struggling, switch it off,
divide the dough into two pieces and
knead them separately.
Bread/pizza dough and egg pasta dough
• Start the appliance at speed 1 until the
ingredients are incorporated, then
increase to speed 3.
• In order to allow the ingredients to best
amalgamate, we recommend adding
the liquid ingredients to the bowl at the
start.
• Egg pasta, bread, pizza: only knead
using the dough hook. Use the flat
beater only to start the kneading
procedure.
DO NOT use the flex edge beater*.
Prepared cake batters
• For up to 1 kg of batter: start up the
appliance at a low speed until the
ingredients start to come together, then
gradually increase the speed up to 7 for
the remaining time.
• For up to 2 kg of batter: start up the
appliance at speed 1 until the
ingredients start to come together, then
gradually increase the speed up to 3-4
for the remaining time.
Pastry
• Cold ingredients should always be used
when making pastry, particularly short
pastes, unless the recipe states
otherwise.
• When preparing cakes, initially beat
butter at room temperature with sugar,
then add the eggs and finally the flour.
It is possible for the motor head to
move slightly when mixing or
kneading dense mixtures or large
quantities. This should be
considered normal and will not
compromise the operation or long
lifetime or the appliance.
*Standard only on certain models. Also available as an optional accessory.
