4.  When the handheld is firmly secured to the base, press the Lock Release 

button on the side of the stand base and pull the handheld firmly upwards to 

access the main mixing area.

5.  Once the lock has been released, slot the splash guard into place, if required. 

To do this, align the two tabs at the back of the splash guard with the two 

recessed ridges located on the underside of the handheld unit base. Once the 

two parts are aligned, push the splash guard firmly inwards until it slots into 

place.

NOTE:

 If using the splash guard, ensure it is correctly fitted into place before 

attempting to use the unit.

NOTE:

 The splash guard does not need to be installed when mixing dry ingredients. 

If mixing dry ingredients, proceed directly to step 6 below.

NOTE:

 The splash guard can also be used as a pouring shield. To use the splash 

guard as a pouring shield, simply lift the flap at the top of the guard and push the 

required ingredients through it and into the bowl.

6.  Once the handheld unit is firmly secured into place, insert the ingredients to 

be mixed into the mixing bowl, and slot the bowl onto the rotating plate on the 

underside of the main mixing area. To prevent the bowl from moving out of 

position while mixing, ensure it is correctly positioned and secured into place 

before attempting to use the unit as a stand mixer.

7.  When the bowl is in place and the accessories are correctly installed and 

secured into place, push the main unit downwards to return the handheld and 

splash guard (if attached) to its original horizontal position.

8.  Once the mixer and splash guard (if attached) are correctly positioned, flick 

the speed selection switch to any position other than ‘0’ to begin mixing. Flick 

this switch to any of the other available settings while the unit is in operation 

to change speed settings while mixing, or flick it back to the ‘0’ position at any 

time to turn the unit off and stop the mixing process.

NOTE:

 For best results, select speed ‘1’ at the start of the mixing process, then 

gradually increase the speed as required.

9.  When the mixing process is complete or to detach the handheld unit from the 

stand base and use it as a hand mixer, press the handheld release button at 

the back of the unit and pull the handheld firmly upwards and away from the 

main base until it detaches. Alternatively, simply press the Lock Release button 

on the side of the stand base and pull the handheld firmly upwards to access 

the main mixing area and remove the mixing bowl.

NOTE:

 Ensure the accessories are detached before attempting to remove the unit 

from the base completely.

To mix or knead dough:

1.  Use the dough hooks for this function.

2.  A good ratio of flour and water is 5:3 but always follow recipe guidelines if 

available.

3.  Take care not to overfill the bowl, as this could affect the quality of the dough.

4.  Once the ingredients are added to the bowl turn the Speed dial to setting 1 at 

first, then gradually increase the speed as required.
