important
- If the mixer head is raised during operation, the machine will stop working straight away. To re-start the mixer, lower the mixer head, turn the speed switch to the off position, wait a few seconds and then re-select the speed. The mixer should resume operating straight away.
- Whenever the mixer head is raised the mixer ready indicator light will go out. When the head is lowered, the light will glow indicating the mixer is ready to use.
hints • Switch off and scrape the bowl with a spatula when necessary.
- Use the fold position for slow incorporation of ingredients such as when mixing flour and fruit into cake mixes. Simply turn the switch to The mixer will operate on slow speed for approximately 2 revolutions and then pause. This will be repeated for a further 20 operations and then stop after which time the switch should be returned to the off 'O' position.
- Eggs at room temperature are best for whisking.
- Before whisking egg whites, make sure there's no grease or egg yolk on the whisk or bowl.
- Use cold ingredients for pastry unless your recipe states otherwise.
- When creaming fat and sugar for cake mixes, always use the fat at room temperature or soften it first.
the mixer
- Your mixer has been fitted with a ‘soft start’ feature to minimise spillage. However if the machine is switched on with a heavy mixture in the bowl such as bread dough, you may notice that the mixer takes a few seconds to reach the selected speed.
points for bread making
important ● Never exceed the maximum capacities below - you will overload the machine.
- To protect the life of the machine always allow a rest of 20 minutes between loads.
- If you hear the machine labouring, switch off, remove half the dough and do each half separately.
- The ingredients mix best if you put the liquid in first.
- At intervals stop the machine and scrape the mixture off the dough hook.
- Different batches of flour vary considerably in the quantities of liquid required and the stickiness of the dough can have a marked effect on the load imposed on the machine. You are advised to keep the machine under observation whilst the dough is being mixed; the operation should take no longer than 5 minutes.
speed switch
These are a guide only and will vary depending upon the quantity of mix in the bowl and the ingredients being mixed.
K beater • creaming fat and sugar start on ‘min’, gradually increasing to a higher speed.
- beating eggs into creamed mixtures 4 - 'max'.
- folding in flour, fruit etc 'min - Qor fold .
- all in one cakes start on 'min', gradually increase to 'max'.
- rubbing fat into flour 'min - 2.
whisk ● Gradually increase to 'max'.
dough hook ● Start on 'min', gradually increasing to 1.
electronic speed sensor control
Your mixer is fitted with an electronic speed sensor control that is designed to maintain the speed under different load conditions, such as when kneading bread dough or when eggs are added to a cake mix. You may therefore hear some variation in speed during the operation as the mixer adjusts to the load and speed selected - this is normal.
maximum capacities
shortcrust pastry 680g flour
fruit cake mix 2.72 Kg total mix
stiff bread dough 1.35 Kg flour
soft bread dough 1.3 Kg flour
egg whites 12

troubleshooting
problem
- The whisk or K beater knocks against the bottom of the bowl isn't reaching the ingredients in the bottom of the bowl.
solution • Adjust the height using the spanner provided. Here's how:
1 Unplug the appliance.
2 Raise the mixer head and insert the whisk or beater.
3 Lower the mixer head. If the clearance needs to be adjusted, raise the mixer head and remove the tool. Ideally the whisk and K beater should be almost touching the bottom of the bowl.
4 Using the spanner provided loosen the nut sufficiently to allow adjustment of the shaft ④. To lower the tool closer to the bottom of the bowl, turn the shaft anti-clockwise. To raise the tool away from the bottom of the bowl turn the shaft clockwise.
5 Re-tighten the nut.
6 Fit the tool to the mixer and lower the mixer head. (Check its position see points above).
7 Repeat the above steps as necessary until the tool is set correctly. Once this is achieved tighten the nut securely.
dough hook - this tool is set at the factory and should require no adjustment.
problem
• The mixer stops during operation.
solution • If for any reason power to the mixer is interrupted and the machine stops working, turn the speed switch to the off position, wait a few seconds and then re-select the speed. The mixer should resume operating straight away.
