WARNING: After mixing, take out the leaf beater, dough hook or whisk attachment with care as they may be hot after use.

Overload Protection System

The motor is protected from burning out by a manual reset cut-out switch. If the Bench Mixer is overloaded or operated continuously for too long, the motor may overheat and stop. To operate the Bench Mixer again, you must switch off, unplug and allow to cool for approximately 30 minutes. Once the motor has fully cooled, it is ready for use again. Some stiff mixtures, such as dough, may cause the dough hook to rotate more slowly than normal.

Do not operate the Bench Mixer continuously with an excessive load for more than 3 minutes. If this occurs again, the mixing bowl may be overloaded, so remove some of the food and process in smaller batches.

Care, Cleaning and Storage

Cleaning After Use

1. Always ensure that the Speed Control Dial is in the 'OFF' position and that the power is switched off at the power outlet then remove the power cord from the power outlet.

Troubleshooting Guide

Problem Solution
Unsure whether to use leaf beater, dough hook or whisk attachment	·Use the leaf beater for all mixing/ whipping tasks.·Use the dough hook only for the preparation of yeast/ bread doughs.·Use the whisk for aerating egg whites.
Unsure of which speed setting to use	·Use the Mixing Guide on page 12 to help select correct mixing speed when preparing recipes.·Begin mixing at lowest speed, then increase to higher speed to prevent splattering.
Object has fallen into the Bench Mixer mixing bowl	·Should an object, such as a spoon or spatula, fall into the mixing bowl while mixing, immediately switch the Bench Mixer to 'OFF' position, turn off at the power outlet and remove the cord from the power outlet, then remove the object.·If the Bench Mixer is damaged in any way, return to a Kambrook Authorised Service Centre.
Over-mixing has occurred	·Mix for the recommended time in the recipe to avoid over-mixing.
Egg whites are not whipping	·Be sure the whisk attachment and mixing bowl are completely clean and dry before use as even a small amount of fat will affect the whipping performance.
Bread dough is not combining	·Some brands of flour absorb more liquid than others so additional amounts of liquid may need to be added if the bread is not combining.·DO NOT exceed speed setting 1 when kneading. DO NOT place hands near the dough hook when mixer is operating.
If batter is too firm	·Add more liquid to your batter.
Mixture is curdling after the eggs have been added	·Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.·Make sure eggs are at room temperature.
Sugar crystals still visible after creaming	·Continue to cream until sugar has dissolved, or use caster sugar.
Lumps in batter or dough	·Sift the flours and sugar before mixing.
Cooked pavlova weeping (sugar not dissolved)	·Next time, continue to whip until all sugar is dissolved. Test by rubbing a small amount of mixture between your fingers; if sugar granules are still felt, further mixing is required.

NOTE: Always begin mixing at a low speed, then increase to a high speed to prevent splattering.

WARNING: Never exceed speed setting number 1 when kneading heavy ingredients such as dough.
