The count-up timer

The count-up timer is especially useful to gauge mixing time or when a recipe does not specify the mixing time. You can monitor the time it takes to thoroughly mix the ingredients, so that the next time you mix the same ingredients you can set the count-down timer to a specific time.

The count-up timer will automatically begin counting up as soon as the Speed Control Dial is rotated from the 'OFF' position to one of the mixing speeds. When the Speed Control Dial is rotated back to the 'OFF' position, the LCD screen will display '0:00'.

NOTE:

The maximum count-up time is 9:59 (nine minutes, fifty-nine seconds). The Mixer will automatically switch off at 9 minutes 59 seconds.The Speed Control Dial must be rotated back to the 'OFF' position to reset the count-up timer and continue mixing.

The count-down timer

The count-down timer is especially useful for any recipe that specifies the length of time ingredients should be mixed. For example, if a recipe reads, "beat for

3 minutes", you can set the count-down timer to 3 minutes by pressing the up/ down arrows. After 3 minutes of mixing, the LCD screen will display 'OFF', an alert will sound and the Mixer will automatically turn off. The Speed Control Dial must be rotated back to the 'OFF' position to reset the timer and continue mixing.

To set the count-down timer, press the up or down arrows until the desired mixing time is displayed on the LCD screen. Rotate the Speed Control Dial clockwise to select the desired speed and to begin mixing. Once the Mixer automatically turns off, the Speed Control Dial must be rotated back to the 'OFF' position to reset the count-down timer and continue mixing.

NOTE:

Press and hold down the arrows to reach the desired time more quickly.

NOTE:

The maximum time the count-down timer can be set is 9:59 (nine minutes, fifty-nine seconds).
