general hints
Stop mixing and scrape down the bowl with the spatula frequently.
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 says otherwise.
points for bread making
Never exceed the maximum capacities stated - you’ll overload the
machine.
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.

troubleshooting
problem
●
●
The whisk or K-beater knocks against the bottom of the bowl or isn’t
reaching the ingredients in the bottom of the bowl.
Adjust the height. Here’s how:
solution
1 Unplug.
2 Raise the mixer head and insert the whisk or beater.
3 Hold it, then loosen the nut ᕡ
ᕡ
4 Lower the mixer head.
5 Adjust the height by turning the shaft. Ideally the whisk/K-beater should
be almost touching the bottom of the bowl ᕢ
6 Raise the head, hold the whisk/K-beater and tighten the nut.
problem
The mixer stops during operation.
●
●
solution
Your mixer is fitted with an overload protection device and will stop if
overloaded to protect the machine. If this happens, unplug the mixer.
Remove some of the ingredients to reduce the load, and allow the
mixer to stand for a few minutes. Plug in and press the start/stop
button. If the mixer does not restart immediately allow to stand for
additional time.
●
If for any reason power to the mixer is interrupted and the machine
stops working, switch off by pressing the on/off button, wait a few
seconds and then switch on again. The mixer should resume operating
straight away.
ᕢ
to fit and use your splashguard
1 Raise the mixer head until it locks.
2 Fit the bowl onto the base.
ᕣ
3 Push the splashguard onto the underside of the mixer head ᕣ until
