ADDITIONAL FEATURES

Pause mode

At any stage during mixing, whether

you are using the count-up or count-down timer, you can rotate the Speed Control Dial to the 'PAUSE' position. This will turn the Mixer off and pause the timer. This enables you to assess the mixing progress or add additional ingredients without affecting

the timer.

For example, if you are mixing using the count-up timer, you can rotate the Speed Control Dial from one of the mixing speeds to the 'PAUSE' position. The Mixer will turn off and pause the timer so you can add ingredients. Once ready, rotate the Speed Control Dial back to one of the mixing speeds and the timer will continue to count-up from the exact time it was paused. Alternatively, you can reset the timer to '0:00' by turning the Speed Control Dial to the 'OFF' position.

Thermo cut-off (temperature overload)

The Mixer is equipped with a self-resetting safety device which safeguards against overheating of the motor with excessive loads. If overheating occurs, the Mixer will automatically activate the overheating protection device and the motor will switch itself off. Should the Mixer go into this mode, the LCD screen will display 'E2', the LED Speed Indicator will flash and an alert will sound 3 times.

If this error occurs, turn the Speed Control Dial to the 'OFF' position and remove the power plug from the wall outlet. Wait at least 15 minutes before restarting the Mixer.

Electronic cut-off (current overload)

The Mixer is equipped with an electronic protection cut-off which will activate if the motor is stalled or overloaded. This is normally a result of excessive ingredients being processed at one time. Should the Mixer go into this mode, the LCD screen will display 'E1', the LED Speed Indicator will flash and an alert will sound 3 times.

If this error occurs, turn the Speed Control Dial to the ‘OFF’ position and remove the power plug from the wall outlet.

Remove some of the ingredients from the mixing bowl before restarting the Mixer.
