ATTACHING BEATERS/DOUGH HOOKS: Be sure appliance is unplugged. One attachment from each pair of either beaters or dough hooks has a small metal washer-ring around the top of the stem; the other does not. The attachment with the washer-ring must be inserted into the larger of the two holes in the mixer. (Hole is located to the right if you are viewing the bottom of the mixer.) Align notches on the beater with the slots inside the hole. Push until attachment clicks to lock into place. Insert attachment without the washer-ring into the smaller hole, and push until it clicks to lock in place. Make sure that the attachments fit snugly into the receptacles. Gently tug on each attachment to ensure it is secured properly.

The plastic spatula attachment directs ingredients that cling to the sides of the bowl into the path of the beaters. It consists of a spatula blade, a grip with slots and two prongs extending from the handle.
TO ATTACH SPATULA: Attach beaters first. Stand mixer on a smooth, flat surface with ventilation pointing upward. Use one hand to hold mixer steady. Place spatula atop beater sticks so that prongs are pointing downward between the beaters (Fig. 1). Push down on spatula grip so that prongs extend beyond beaters and slots on grip are parallel with beaters (Fig. 2). Gently turn spatula so that beater sticks fit into slots. Prongs on spatula will now be parallel with beater sticks (Fig. 3). Grasp prongs from underneath with thumb and forefinger, and pinch them together slightly. Guide notched tabs at end of prongs into slot between beater holes on mixer and push until they click into place. Gently tug on the spatula to ensure that it is properly connected.
TO DETACH SPATULA: Grasp prongs from underneath and pinch them together slightly to release spatula (Fig. 4). Turn spatula so that prongs point downward, and lift spatula from beater sticks.
TO USE: Insert plug into any standard household outlet. Place beaters directly into container holding ingredients to be mixed.
