Before using your Bravetti Platinum Pro Multi-Use Mixer for the first time, wash the beaters, dough hooks, whisk and containers in warm, sudsy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Warning: To avoid injury when inserting or removing beaters, dough hooks, whisk, hand blender or chopper, always set the speed selector on ”0" and unplug the appliance.
Warning: The unit is designed for intermittent use. The maximum operating time on settings “0-Max” is 5 minutes non-stop with beaters, dough hooks, or whisk. Maximum running time with the chopper is 3 minutes and with the hand blender 2 minutes.
Beaters, Dough Hooks, Whisk:
Select the attachment according to the type of mixing required. Make sure that the mixer is unplugged from power source and speed selector is set on ”0" before inserting or removing beaters, dough hooks or whisk.
Beaters:
Use for liquid mixes such as creams, egg-whites, confectionery doughs, etc. insert stem end of beaters (one at a time) into the openings in the mixer. Insert the beater with the metal ring in the larger of the two holes. The metal ring on the beater must sit below the surface of the mixer housing. To ease the inserting of the beaters, a slight twisting motion will aid in engaging the beater drive tabs. Install the second beater in the same manner as above. (If there is no ring on one of your beaters, either beater can be inserted into either hole of the mixer.)
Dough hooks:
Use for light doughs. Insert dough hooks in the same way as beaters above. See installing instructions for beaters above. Always use both dough hooks. Never try to work with one beater and one dough hook at the same time. Do not use dough hooks at low speeds as this may cause motor to overheat. When using dough hooks for heavy or thick dough, use only high speed (MAX) from the beginning to prevent the motor from overheating (blocking).
Whisk:
The whisk is used to beat air into mixtures such as egg whites, yolks or cream. To insert whisk: There is only one whisk provided. Hold whisk at stem end and insert into one of the holes until it clicks into place. DO NOT PUSH
WHISK IN FROM THE WIRE END AS WIRES MAY BE DAMAGED.

1.Select the required speed using your thumb to slide the speed control switch to the required position: “0 - Max”.
Low Speeds are suggested for starting and blending dry and liquid ingredients, folding in egg whites or to break up potatoes for mashing. Medium speeds are suggested for beating egg whites, yolks or whole eggs and whipping cream.
Higher speeds are suggested for all medium speed applications as well as light cake batters,and whipping cream or mashing potatoes. Also for mixing bread doughs with the dough hooks. We recommend that you start at low speed and gradually increase the speed as required. For difficult or thick mixtures, use “MAX” speed from the outset to prevent the motor from overloading.
Caution: When using dough hooks for heavy or thick dough, use only MAX speed from the outset to prevent the motor from overheating. Always make sure that the beaters are free to rotate properly in the container.
Warning: To avoid personal injury and damage to beaters, do not attempt to scrape bowl while mixer is operating , turn mixer OFF. Should scraper or other object drop into bowl, turn motor OFF before removing.
To remove beaters, dough hooks, or whisk set speed selector on ’0', unplug unit from power source, and press the release button to remove the beaters, dough hooks, or whisk from the hand mixer. This button only works if the speed control switch is set on ’0'.
