3. If the at beater hits the bowl, stop

the Stand Mixer. See “Beater to Bowl Clearance”. 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 Mixer in working order? If you have a circuit breaker box, be sure the circuit is closed. - Turn the Stand Mixer off for 10-15 seconds, then 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 KitchenAid

Stand Mixer will mix faster and more thoroughly than most other electric stand mixers. Therefore, the mixing time in most recipes must be adjusted to avoid overbeating. With cakes, for example, beating time may be half as long as with other stand mixers. Mixer Use NOTE: Do not scrape bowl while Stand Mixer is operating. The bowl and beater are designed to provide thorough mixing without frequent scraping. Scraping the bowl once or twice during mixing is usually sufcient. Turn Stand Mixer off before scraping. The Stand Mixer may warm up during use. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the Stand Mixer. This is normal. If the Stand Mixer becomes overloaded, it will automatically shut off to prevent damage. See “Auto-Reset Motor Protection”. W10388644D_EN_v1.indd 10 12/12/11 4:18 PM11 Speed Control Guide – 10 Speed Stand Mixers All speeds feature Soft Start™ operation, which minimizes splash-out and our puff. The mixer will start slowly before increasing to the selected speed. Number of Speed Speed Stir STIR For slow stirring, combining, mashing, starting all mixing procedures. Use to add our and dry ingredients to batter, and add liquids to dry ingredients. Do not use STIR speed to mix or knead yeast doughs. 2 SLOW MIXING For slow mixing, mashing, faster stirring. Use to mix and knead yeast doughs, heavy batters and candies; start mashing potatoes or other vegetables; cut shortening into our; mix thin or splashy batters. 4 MIXING, For mixing semi-heavy batters, such as BEATING cookies. Use to combine sugar and shortening and to add sugar to egg whites for meringues. Medium speed for cake mixes. 6 BEATING, For medium-fast beating (creaming) or CREAMING whipping. Use to nish mixing cake, doughnut, and other batters. High speed for cake mixes. 8 FAST BEATING, For whipping cream, egg whites, and WHIPPING boiled frostings. 10 FAST WHIPPING For whipping small amounts of cream, egg whites or for nal whipping of mashed potatoes. NOTE: Use speed 2 to mix or knead yeast dough or fondants. 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 selector to off, and then turn back on to a lower speed. W10388644D_EN_v1.indd 11 12/12/11 4:18 PM12 Beater to Bowl Clearance Your Stand Mixer is adjusted at the factory so the at beater just clears the bottom of the bowl. If, for any reason, the at beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far away from the bowl, you can correct the clearance easily.

2. Place bowl lift lever in down position.

3. Attach at beater.

4. Adjust so at beater just clears bottom

surface of bowl when in lifted position by turning screw (A) counterclockwise to raise the bowl and clockwise to lower the bowl. Just a slight turn is all that is required: the screw will not rotate more than 1/4 turn (90 degrees) in either direction. (The full range of adjustment is 1/2 turn, or 180 degrees.)

5. Place bowl lift lever in up position

NOTE: When properly adjusted, the at beater will not strike on the bottom or side of the bowl. If the at beater or the wire whip is so close that it strikes the bottom of the bowl, the beater or whip may wear. Lower BowlRaise Bowl

W10388644D_EN_v1.indd 12 12/12/11 4:18 PM13 Mixing Tips Using Your Recipes with the Mixer There are a number of methods that can be used for making cake with your KitchenAid

Stand Mixer. For example, the “quick mix” method (sometimes referred to as the “dump” method) is ideal for simple cakes, such as yellow cake and white cake. This method calls for combining dry ingredients with most or all liquid ingredients in one step. More elaborate cakes, such as a torte, should be prepared using the traditional cake mixing method. With this method, sugar and the shortening, butter, or margarine are thoroughly mixed (creamed) before other ingredients are added. For all cakes, mixing times may change because your KitchenAid

Stand Mixer works more quickly than other mixers. In general, mixing a cake with the KitchenAid

Stand Mixer will take about half the time called for in most cake recipes. 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, see “Speed Control Guide”. Adding Ingredients Always add ingredients as close to side of bowl as possible, not directly into moving beater. NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom of bowl are not thoroughly mixed, then the beater is not far enough into the bowl. See “Beater to Bowl Clearance”. Cake Mixes When preparing packaged cake mixes, use Speed 2 for low speed, Speed 4 for medium speed, and Speed 6 for high speed. For best results, mix for the time stated on the package directions. Adding Nuts, Raisins, or Candied Fruits In general, solid materials should be folded in the last few seconds of mixing on Stir Speed. The batter should be thick enough to prevent the fruit or nuts from sinking to the bottom of the pan during baking. Sticky fruits should be dusted with our 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. W10388644D_EN_v1.indd 13 12/12/11 4:18 PM14 Basic White Bread 1/2 cup (120 mL) low-fat milk 3 tbs (45 mL) sugar 2 tsp (10 mL) salt 3 tbs (45 mL) butter or margarine 2 packages active dry yeast 1-1/2 cups (355 mL) warm water (105°F to 115°F) [40°C to 46° C] 5-6 cups (1.2 to 1.5 L) all-purpose flour Place milk, sugar, salt, and butter in small saucepan. Heat over low heat until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Cool to lukewarm. Dissolve yeast in warm water in warmed mixer bowl. Add lukewarm milk mixture and 4 1/2 cups (1 L) flour. Attach bowl and dough hook to mixer. Turn to Speed 2 and mix about 1 minute. Continuing on Speed 2, add remaining flour, 1/2 cup (120 mL) at a time, and mix about 1-1/2 minutes, or until dough starts to clean sides of bowl. Knead on Speed 2 about 2 minutes longer, or until dough is smooth and elastic. Dough will be slightly sticky to the touch. Place dough in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover. Let rise in warm place, free from draft, about 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down and divide in half. Shape each half into a loaf, and place in greased 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 2-1/2" (21.25 x 11.25 x 6.25 cm) baking pans. Cover. Let rise in warm place, free from draft, about 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from pans immediately and cool on wire racks. Yield: 32 servings (16 slices per loaf).
