| Mixing Time |

Your KitchenAid® stand mixer will mix faster and more thoroughly than most other electric stand mixers. Therefore, the mixing time
in most recipes must be adjusted to avoid overbeating. With cakes, for example, beating time may be half as long as with other stand mixers.
Mixer Use
WARNING
Injury Hazard
Unplug mixer before touching beaters.
Failure to do so can result in broken bones, cuts or bruises.
NOTE: Do not scrape bowl while stand mixer is operating.
The bowl and beater are designed to provide thorough mixing without frequent scraping. Scraping the bowl once or twice during mixing is usually sufficient. Turn stand mixer off before scraping.
The stand mixer may warm up during use. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the stand mixer. This is normal.
