Bench Mixer
Drive Outlet
The drive outlet allows for the attachment of a range
of accessories including pasta rollers and pasta cutters.
1200W motor
Powerful motor achieves thorough mixing results.
Full die-cast metal body with sintered metal gears
The heavy duty die-cast metal body combined with sintered
metal gears deliver quality, style and superior performance.
Planetary mixing action
Enables the mixing attachment (beater, Scrapemaster™
spatula beater, whisk or dough hook) to rotate whilst
travelling around the inside of the bowl, and reach all
areas of the bowl ensuring ingredients are completely mixed.
Splashguard with pouring chute
Splashguard prevents ingredients from spilling out of the
mixing bowl. The pouring chute allows adding ingredients
directly into the mixing bowl without having to stop the
mixer and lifting the mixer head.
Overmould Handle
The handle on the mixing bowl allows for ease of use during
operation and the overmould handle provides comfort for your hand.
Slow start
The mixing speed is gradually increased to prevent ingredients
splashing out of the mixing bowl.
Stainless steel mixing bowl
The 4.5L mixing bowl is ideal for mixing large
or small quantities of ingredients.
Cord storage
For added convenience the unused cord length can easily be pushed
into the base of the mixer for storage.
Pause / Start button
Allows you to instantly stop the mixer to assess the mixing progress
and/or add additional ingredients without affecting
the timer.
Carrying grips
Grips at both sides of the mixer base allow for easy carrying.

Die-cast alloy dough hook
Takes the hard work out of kneading dough and other
heavy mixtures.
Stainless steel whisk
Perfect for whisking cream, egg whites, light batters
and packet cake mixes.
Head release with in-built safety feature
The mixer head can be easily released and lifted
with one hand. It tilts upwards and locks securely
into position to allow easy insertion and removal of
the mixing bowl and attachments. The in-built safety
feature ensures that the mixer only starts when the
mixer head is tilted downwards and securely locked
in. Lifting the mixer head during the mixing process
will automatically cut power to the motor.
Scrapemaster™ spatula beater
Excels at combining ingredients and simultaneously
scrapes the sides and the bottom of the mixing bowl,
virtually eliminating hand-scraping and batter build-up
on the blade. Superior bowl clearance also makes this
attachment ideal for smaller mixing quantities.
Die-cast alloy beater
Provides maximum aeration for creaming butter and
sugar, and is also ideal for mixing heavy cake mixes.
LCD screen with timer
LCD screen displays mixing time and speed setting.
Timer function can be set to count up or down as
required.
Speed control dial with 12 variable settings
The combination of 12 electronic speeds and a
powerful torque control motor ensures superior mixing
control and maintains speed, regardless of the mixing
load.

The count up timer informs you how long
your ingredients have been mixing for. The
next time you mix the same ingredients you
can then set the count-down timer for the
specific time.
As soon as you start mixing, the timer will
automatically start to count up.
The maximum mixing time is 20 minutes

Count-down timer
The count-down timer is especially useful
when following a recipe that specifies mixing
times.
The ‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons allow you to choose
the desired mixing duration. Press the
‘+’ button and you will add 30 seconds.
Press the ‘-’ button and you will reduce the
previously set mixing time by 30 seconds.
For example, if a recipe calls to “beat for
2 minutes”, you can set the count-down
timer to 2 minutes. Simply press the ‘+’
button until “02:00” is displayed on the LCD
screen, i.e. press the ‘+’ button four times.
If you would like to change the countdown
time after your initial setup, press the
button, then press the ‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons to
increase or reduce the mixing time to the
nearest 30 sec increment.
For example, you set the count-down timer
to 3 minutes and turn the speed control dial
to start mixing on a chosen speed. After 1
minute, 25 seconds, you pause the mixer by
pressing the
the remaining count-down time of 01:35. If
you now press the ‘+’ button once to increase
the mixing time, the display will show 02:00
(which is the nearest 30 sec increment).
To reset the timer to “00:00”, turn the speed
control dial anti-clockwise to the “0” location
or, when paused, press the ‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons
simultaneously.
When the chosen mixing time is completed,
the mixer will beep twice to inform you that
the time has expired. It will stop mixing
automatically. The timer display “00:00”
and the LCD screen will flash for about 5
seconds. The LCD screen will display the

Safety Mechanisms
Thermo cut-off – temperature overload
The mixer is equipped with a self-resetting
safety device which safeguards against
overheating the motor with excessive
loads. If overheating occurs, the mixer
will automatically activate the overheating
protection device and switch itself off. The
mixer will beep and the screen will flash
continuously. Switch the mixer off and
unplug it from the power point. Release the
mixer head and tilt it back until it is locked
into the tilt back position. Let the mixer rest
for 30 min.
Electronic protection cut-out
If the mixing load is too heavy for the
selected speed and prevents the attachment
from rotating, the mixer will cut-out to
prevent damage to the unit. If the LCD
screen flashes fast and continuously, the
motor has not been able to achieve or
maintain the set speed. In this case, unplug
the mixer and remove some of the mixture
from the bowl, working in batches.
Mixer head safety mechanism
The mixer head must be locked down or the
motor will not operate. If the mixer head is
tilted upwards during operation, the mixer
will automatically stop. This is a safety
mechanism to avoid injury. To resume your
mixing task, lock the mixer head back down
and press the
Standby mode
The mixer will automatically switch off the
LCD screen after 20 minutes to save power.
To exit the standby mode, press any button or

checked. After approximately four years
of domestic use, the grease in the gear
compartment should be examined. We
suggest at that time you send the mixer to
your nearest Sunbeam Appliance Service
Centre to ensure efficient, correct servicing.
Storage
Keep your Sunbeam Café Series® Planetary
Mixmaster® Power Drive in a convenient
position on your kitchen bench ready for use
at all times. Place the beater, Scrapemaster

added convenience the unused cord length
can easily be pushed into the base of the
mixer for storage.
Stainless steel whisk
After washing the stainless steel whisk, the
outer wire may have moved out of position
and become misaligned (see Figure 9).
Please clip the outer wire back into position
