Troubleshooting Problems
Please read the following before
arranging for service.
1. The mixer may warm up during
use. Under heavy loads with
extended mixing time periods, you
may not be able to comfortably
touch the top of the unit. This is
normal.
2. The mixer may emit a pungent
odor, especially when new. This is
common with electric motors.
3. If the flat beater hits the bowl,
stop the mixer. See “Beater to Bowl
Clearance,” page 11.
If your mixer should malfunction
or fail to operate, please check
the following:
1. Is the mixer plugged in?
2. Is the fuse in the circuit to the
mixer in working order? If you have
a circuit breaker box, be sure the
circuit is closed.
3. Turn mixer off for 10-15 seconds,
then turn mixer back on.
If the problem cannot be corrected
with the above steps, see the
KitchenAid Warranty on page 3. DO
NOT return the mixer to the retailer –
they do not provide service.
