Frequently Asked Questions - KM5-1-VBP AEG

How to use the flat beater?

Attach the flat beater by pushing it up into the shaft and turning it counterclockwise until it locks. Place the bowl, tilt the motor head down, plug in and select the appropriate speed (max 4 for medium-thick mixtures).

What speed to use for kneading bread dough?

Use the dough hook at maximum speed 2. To avoid splashing, start at speed 1 for 60 seconds then switch to the desired speed. Do not exceed 10 minutes of continuous operation.

Can I wash the bowl and accessories in the dishwasher?

Yes, the mixing bowl, tools (hook, whisk, beater) and splash guard lid are dishwasher-safe. The salad maker accessories must be hand washed in warm soapy water.

What to do if the motor slows down or stops?

This may be due to overload. Unplug, remove half of the dough and prepare it in two batches. Let the motor cool for 20 minutes before restarting.

How to use the salad maker?

Insert the chosen slicer or grater into the salad maker housing. Attach it to the front support using the release button. Place a bowl under the outlet, plug in and select the speed (max 4). Insert the cut foods using the pusher.

Can I mix hot liquids with this appliance?

No, never use boiling liquids. The maximum allowed temperature is 90 °C.

How to avoid splashes during mixing?

Always use the splash guard lid. Ensure it is correctly positioned. For dough, start at speed 1 for 60 seconds before increasing.

What is the maximum capacity of the bowl?

Capacity varies by preparation: up to 1.62 kg bread dough, 2 kg sponge cake dough (10 eggs) or 600 g cream. Do not overfill to avoid overflow or overload.

Can I leave the appliance unattended?

No, never leave the appliance unattended while it is operating. Always unplug it after use or before cleaning.

What to do if dough sticks to the sides of the bowl?

Add a little more flour until the dough comes off. Make sure to put the liquid first before dry ingredients, and increase speed if necessary.

HOW TO USE (picture page '2-5')

1 Cleaning - Make sure that you clean bowl and tools before use.
2 Usage of tools and capacity.

Main tools

Speeds	Tools	Type of Mixture		Min Capacity	Max Capacity
Max2	Dough hook	Heavy mixtures of dough (e.g. bread, pizza or pastry dough)	75% hydration	130g flour or 230g dough	0.92kg flour or 1.62kg dough
			57% hydration	175g flour or 290g dough	1.05kg flour or 1.74kg dough
			40% hydration	250g flour or 400g dough	0.75kg flour or 1.2kg dough
Max4	Beater	Medium - heavy mixtures (e.g. crepes or sponge mixture)		1egg or 200g dough	10 eggs or 2kg dough
Max6	Whisk	Light mixtures (e.g. cream, egg white, blancmange)		3eggs or 100g cream	10 eggs or 600g cream

Hydration percentage means the weight proportion of water relative to the flour used in the dough recipe.

Example: if a dough recipe uses 400 gr of water and 1,000 gr of flour, means it has 40% hydration.
