naise, flans, batters, pancake mixes, omelettes. You can use the whisks to start mixing the ingredients and then change over to the dough hooks (7) to mix the dough correctly. 2.- Dough hooks (7): These are recommended for mixing dry pastry (e.g. puff pastry, shortcrust pastry) and soft pastries (e.g. sponge and cake mixes).

USING THE HAND MIXER

Whisks and dough hooks: Insert the whisks (6) or dough hooks (7), holding the handle of the mixer in one hand and the shank of the mixer rod in the other. Insert the shank into the rod holes (Figure 1), turning it slightly so that it locks into position. Do the same to attach the other rod. Before switching the hand mixer on, make sure that the rods are fitted cor-

rectly. The whisks can be inserted into either hole. However the dough hooks have specific holes. The dough hook with the washer fitted to the shank must be inserted into the widest hole on the food mixer. (Figure 2) ATTENTION: Make sure that the hand mixer is unplugged and the speed switch is set to “0” before fitting the whisks (6) or the dough hooks (7). USE Whisks and dough hooks: Once the rods have been fitted correct-

ly, plug the hand mixer into the electric socket and select a suitable speed, based on what you intend to mix. To prevent splashing, insert the whisks (6) or dough hooks (7) into the food be-

fore you switch the mixer on. Place the rods into the centre of the food that you wish to mix. Select a suitable speed for work you in-

tend to do. Move the rods about constantly to en-

sure an even mix. When mixing dough, it is best to start off with the liquid ingredients, adding solids gradually to obtain an even mix. To release the rods, set the speed se-

lector to the "0" position, unplug the appliance from the wall socket and press the whisk release button (2), (Figure 3). To place the appliance down between uses, the hand mixer can be rested on its stand (8), as shown In Figure 4. However, under no circumstances must the mixer be placed in this position while operating. Set the speed selector to the "0" position to stop the rods rotating. SAFETY SYSTEM: The hand mixer is fitted with a safety system that prevents the rods from be-

ing released while the motor is running. Before releasing the rods, set the speed selector to the “0” position and unplug the appliance from the wall socket. The hand mixer is fitted with another safety system that prevents the “TURBO” speed setting from being used if the speed selector is set to “0”. SPEED SELECTOR The speed can be selected by turning the speed selector (4) to any of the five different positions (Fig. 5) Level 1-2: (Low speeds) The best speeds at which to start mixing. For continuously stirring, whisking or mixing light ingredients or liquids. They are also used for whipping egg whites or mixing flour for dough. Level 3-4: (Medium speeds) Especially suitable for thick batters or mixes. Level 5: (High speed) Especially suitable for beating egg whites, cake mixes and sauces. Also used for kneading heavier dough. Turbo button: (High speed) exclusive system specially designed for increasing speed regardless of the speed setting. “TURBO” speed cannot be used if the speed selector is set to the “0” position. It is advisable to use this when you re-

quire high mixing speeds for very short periods.The operating speed can be changed while it is working. To prevent the motor from overheat-

ing, do not use the “TURBO” function for longer than one minute. CLEANING & CARE Before cleaning any part on the hand mixer, set the speed selector (4) to the "0" position. Then unplug the mains ca-

ble from the wall socket and release the rods (6-7). Make sure to dry all of the parts before reusing them. Whisks and dough hooks: The rods (6-7) can be washed in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher. Motor housing The hand mixer motor housing (1) and the mains cable should be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Never immerse these in water or any other liquid. To remove stubborn stains, clean with a cloth slightly dampened with soapy water or a mild, non-abrasive, clean-- ing agent. Finish off with a clean damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning products.
