the mixer
important
K beater
whisk dough hook
●Your mixer has been fitted with a ‘soft start’ feature to minimise spillage. However if the machine is switched on with a heavy mixture in the bowl such as bread dough, you may notice that the mixer takes a few seconds to reach the selected speed.
points for bread making
●Never exceed the maximum capacities below - you will overload the machine.
●To protect the life of the machine always allow a rest of 20 minutes between loads.
●If you hear the machine labouring, switch off, remove half the dough and do each half separately.
●The ingredients mix best if you put the liquid in first.
●At intervals stop the machine and scrape the mixture off the dough hook.
●Different batches of flour vary considerably in the quantities of liquid required and the stickiness of the dough can have a marked effect on the load imposed on the machine. You are advised to keep the machine under observation whilst the dough is being mixed; the operation should take no longer than 5 minutes.
speed switch
These are a guide only and will vary depending upon the quantity of mix in the bowl and the ingredients being mixed.
●creaming fat and sugar start on ‘min’, gradually increasing to a higher speed.
●beating eggs into creamed mixtures 4 - ‘max’.
●folding in flour, fruit etc ‘min - 1 or fold 
.
●all in one cakes start on ‘min’, gradually increase to ‘max’.
●rubbing fat into flour ‘min - 2.
●Gradually increase to ‘max’.
●Start on ‘min’, gradually increasing to 1.
electronic speed sensor control
Your mixer is fitted with an electronic speed sensor control that is designed to maintain the speed under different load conditions, such as when kneading bread dough or when eggs are added to a cake mix. You may therefore hear some variation in speed during the operation as the mixer adjusts to the load and speed selected - this is normal.
