Adjusting your Beater to Bowl Clearance

Your Stand Mixer is adjusted at the factory so the Flat Beater just clears the bottom of the bowl. If, for any reason, the Flat Beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far away from the bowl, you can correct the clearance easily.

1. Turn speed control to "0" (OFF).
2. Unplug Stand Mixer or disconnect power.
3. Lower the bowl to the down position.
4. Turn Beater Height Adjustment Screw (A) slightly counter clockwise (left) to raise Flat Beater or clockwise (right) to lower Flat Beater.
5. Make adjustment with Flat Beater, so it just clears surface of the bowl. If you over adjust the screw, the Bowl Lift Lever may not lock into place.

NOTE: When properly adjusted, the Flat Beater will not strike on the bottom or side of the bowl. If the Flat Beater or the Stainless Steel Whip is so close that it strikes the bottom of the bowl, coating may wear off the Flat Beater (for coated beaters) or wires on Stainless Steel Whip may wear.

Scraping sides of bowl may be necessary under certain conditions regardless of beater adjustment. The Stand Mixer must be stopped to scrape bowl or damage to mixer may occur.

Speed Control Guide - 10 Speed Stand Mixers

All speeds have the Soft Start feature that automatically starts the Stand Mixer at a lower speed to help avoid ingredient splashout and "flour puff" at start-up, then quickly increases to the selected speed for optimal performance.

Speed	Used for Accessories	Description
1 Stirring For slow stirring, combining, mashings starting all mixing procedures. Use to add flour and dry ingredients to batter, and add liquids to dry ingredients. Do not use Speed I to mix or knead yeast doughs.
2 Slow Mixing, Kneading heavy ba tters, and candies; start mashing potatoes or other vegetables; cut batters.		For slow mixing, faster stirring. Use to mix and knead yeast doughs, shortening into flour; mix thin or splashy

General Information

KitchenAid™ optional Attachments are designed to assure long life. The Attachment Power Shaft and Attachment Hub Socket are of a square design, to eliminate any possibility of slipping during the transmission of power to the attachment. The hub and shaft housings are tapered to assure a snug fit, even after prolonged use and wear. KitchenAid™ Attachments require no extra power unit to operate them; the power unit is built-in.

* Optional Attachment, not part of the mixer.

Care and Cleaning

Stainless Steel Bowl, Flat Beater, Stainless Steel Whip, and Spiral Dough Hook may be washed in an automatic dishwasher. Or, clean them thoroughly in hot sudsy water and rinse completely before drying. Do not store beaters on shaft.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD ALWAYS BE SURE TO UNPLUG MIXER BEFORE CLEANING TO AVOID POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL SHOCK.

Wipe mixer with a damp cloth. DO NOT IMMERSE IN WATER. Wipe off beater shaft frequently, removing any residue that may accumulate.

Planetary Mixing Action

During operation, the Flat Beater moves around the stationary bowl, at the same time turning in the opposite direction on its own axis. The diagram shows

the complete coverage of the bowl made by the path of the beater.

The 5KSM7580 and 5KSM7591 models are rated 500 Watts and use a Direct Current motor. It is a quiet and highly efficient motor, combined with a direct drive transmission system: this enables to drive I.3 Horse Power at peak power (output motor power), enabling fast and outstanding mixing result even with heavy dough.

Mixing Time

Your KitchenAid™ Mixer will mix faster and more thoroughly than most other electric mixers. Therefore, the mixing time in most recipes must be adjusted to avoid overbeating.

To help determine the ideal mixing time, observe the batter or dough and mix only until it has the desired appearance described in your recipe, such as "smooth and creamy." To select the best mixing speeds, use the "Speed Control Guide" section.

Mixer Use

WARNING

PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD

To avoid personal injury and damage to the beater, do not attempt to scrape bowl while mixer is operating; turn mixer off. Should scraper or other object drop into bowl, turn motor OFF before removing.

The bowl and beater are designed to provide thorough mixing without frequent scraping. Scraping the bowl once or twice during mixing is usually sufficient.

The Stand Mixer may become warm during use. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time periods, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the Stand Mixer. This is normal.

Mixing Tips

Adding Ingredients

Always add ingredients as close to side of bowl as possible, not directly into moving beater. The Pouring Shield can be used to simplify adding ingredients. Use Speed I until ingredients have been blended. Then gradually increase to desired speed.

Adding Nuts, Raisins, or Candied Fruits Follow individual recipes for guidelines on including these ingredients. In general, solid materials should be folded in the last few seconds of mixing on Speed I. The batter should be thick enough to keep the fruit or nuts from sinking to the bottom of the pan during baking. Sticky fruits should be dusted with flour for better distribution in the batter.

Liquid Mixtures

Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid ingredients should be mixed at lower speeds to avoid splashing. Increase speed only after mixture has thickened.

NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom of bowl are not thoroughly mixed, then the beater is not far enough into the bowl. See the "Setting Up Your Stand Mixer" section.

Whipping Tips for Egg Whites

Place room temperature egg whites in clean, dry bowl. Attach stainless steel bowl and wire whip. To avoid splashing, gradually turn to designated speed and whip to desired stage. See chart below.

AMOUNT SPEED

I egg white..GRADUALLY to 10
2-4 egg whites GRADUALLY to 8

Bread Making Tips

Making bread with a mixer is quite different from making bread by hand. Therefore, it will take some practice before you are completely comfortable with the new process. For your convenience, we offer these tips to help you become accustomed to bread-making the KitchenAidTM brand way.

• ALWAYS use the PowerKnead Spiral Dough Hook to mix and knead yeast doughs.
• Use Speed 2 to mix or knead yeast dough. Use of any other speed with heavy doughs may cause mixer to stop rotating to limit mixer damage. This is normal operation. If this occurs, turn the Speed Control Lever to off, and then turn back on to a lower speed.
• Use a candy or other kitchen thermometer to assure that liquids are at temperature specified in the recipe. Liquids at higher temperature can kill yeast, while liquids at lower temperatures will retard yeast growth.

• Warm all ingredients to room temperature to ensure proper rising of dough. If yeast is to be dissolved in bowl, always warm bowl first by rinsing with warm water to avoid cooling of liquids.

• Allow bread to rise in a warm place, 26^ C to 29^ C , free from draft, unless otherwise specified in recipe.

• Recipe rising times may vary due to temperature and humidity in your kitchen. Dough has doubled in bulk when indentation remains after tips of fingers are pressed lightly and quickly into dough.
• Most bread recipes give a range for the amount of flour to be used. Enough flour has been added when the dough starts to clean sides of bowl. If dough is sticky or humidity is high, slowly add more flour, about 60g (1/2 cup) at a time but do not exceed recommended flour capacity. Knead after each addition until flour is completely worked into dough. If too much flour is added, a dry loaf will result.
• When done, yeast breads and rolls should be deep golden brown in colour. other tests for doneness of breads are: Bread pulls away from the sides of pan, and tapping on the top of the loaf produces a hollow sound. Turn loaves and rolls onto racks immediately after baking to avoid sogginess.

When You Need Service

Please read the following before calling your service center.

I. The Stand Mixer may warm up during use. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time periods, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the unit. This is normal.

1. The Stand Mixer may emit a pungent odor, especially when new. This is common with electric motors.
2. If the Flat Beater hits the Bowl, stop the Stand Mixer. See the "Setting Up Your Stand Mixer" section.

If your Stand Mixer should malfunction or fail to operate, please check the following:

• Is the Stand Mixer plugged in?
• Is the fuse in the circuit to the Stand Mix in working order? If you have a circuit breaker box, be sure the circuit is closed.
• Turn off the Stand Mixer for 10-15 seconds, the turn it back on. If the mixer still does not start, allow it to cool for 30 minutes before turning it back on.
• If the problem is not due to one of the above items, see the "Service Centers" section.
