Move the speed switch forwards
to the pulse “P” position to
operate the motor at maximum
speed. The motor will operate
for as long as the pulse is held in
position.
6 When the mixture has reached
the desired consistency, return
the speed switch a to the off “O”
position and then lift the beaters/
kneaders out of the bowl.
7 To remove the tools, make sure
the speed switch a is in the
off “O” position and unplug the
handmixer. Press the tool release
button b. Hold onto the tool
shafts when ejecting the tools.
Important:
l
kneaders only - when making
bread dough we recommend that
the dough load does not exceed
450g flour.
l
To protect your handmixer, do not
use it for longer than 3 minutes in
any 5 minute period with doughs,
heavy cake mixtures, etc. Switch
it off as soon as you have got the
right consistency.
hints
l
When creaming for cake mixtures,
use butter or margarine at room
temperature or soften before use.
l
To avoid overloading your mixing
bowl, select one of an appropriate
size.
l
Large quantities and thick mixtures
may require a longer mixing time.
l
When whipping cream, use of a
high-sided bowl is recommended
to minimise splashing.
