Unpacking and using your
machine for the first time
Carefully unpack your new kitchen
machine and all its attachments and
tools, checking them against the
illustrations at the beginning of this
book to familiarise yourself with the
product. Wash all the parts which
are safe to immerse in water.
Never immerse the base unit in
water or any other liquid. This may
be wiped over with a clean, damp
cloth - but only when unplugged
from the electrical outlet.
The mixer tools and
their uses
WARNING: Never run the mixer
for longer than 10 minutes as it
will overheat. Allow to cool for 3
minutes.
Wash all parts before first use, see
cleaning instructions page 10.
Whisk
Use the whisk attachment for
whisking eggs, cream, instant
puddings, all in one cake mixes,
creaming margarine with sugar (use
a block margarine at room
temperature) and mixing eggs into
sponge and fruit cakes.
•
Don’t use the whisk for heavy
mixtures as you could damage it.
•
Use the splash cover.
Dough hook
Use the dough hook for yeast
mixtures.
Beater
Use beater for mixing flour or fruit
into cake mixes and making short
crust pastry.
Splash cover
The splash cover is used to prevent
any splash back of ingredients. The
opening can be used to add
ingredients during mixing. When you
are putting the splash guard on,
slide it across the bowl and around
the mixer head and slot into place.
Using the mixer
1
Turn the release knob to the ‘unlock’
position and raise the mixer head

Locate the bowl in the bowl locator
by inserting and turning clockwise.

Choose a tool, insert the tool into the
attachment head, push up and twist
anti-clockwise to lock in place B.
5
Lower the mixer head by holding the
release knob in the ‘unlock’ position,
push down until it clicks shut.
6
Locate the splash cover (if required)
over the attachment head then slide

Choosing which
speed to use
•
If you have something in the bowl
that might splash (e.g. cream or
flour), use the bowl cover, then start
on the lowest speed and increase if
necessary.
•
If you feel the machine labouring,
increase the speed.
•
Use the pulse setting when you
require a short burst at maximum
speed, (usually required if whisking).
This may help you to select a speed
for most tasks. These guides are
recommendations. Please adjust the
mixer speed as necessary.
