A Few Words About Mixing....

 

Optional Features on Selected Models

Power Boost/QuickBurst™
Press and hold the button for additional power at any speed. Do not use power boost more than 2 minutes at a time or motor may overheat.

Bowl Rest™
CAUTION: Never use Bowl Rest when mixer is on. Do not use Bowl Rest on small plastic mixing bowls. This feature can be used on most large mixing bowls. TURN MIXER OFF, then set mixer on edge of bowl while adding ingredients or checking recipe.

Cord Wrap and Clip
When finished using the mixer, clean as instructed. Then wrap cord around mixer body and secure cord in clip.

How To Clean

  1. Always unplug mixer from electrical outlet and eject the beaters before cleaning.
  2. Wash beaters in hot, soapy water; rinse and dry. Beaters may also be washed in the dishwasher.
  3. Wipe the mixer body and cord with a clean, damp cloth.

    Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. To reduce the risk of electrical shock do not immerse the mixer body in water at any time.

 

Mixing Tips
Cookie dough is one of the thickest doughs to mix. Make it easier by following these tips:

  • Use a large mixing bowl to spread out ingredients for easier mixing.
  • Have butter or margarine at room temperature.
  • Add ingredients one at a time, thoroughly mixing after each addition.
  • Add flour one cup at a time.
  • If adding chips or nuts to a very thick dough batter, we recommend stirring them in by hand at the very end of the recipe.
