Operating light
Whenever the machine is operating, the bowl is
illuminated by a light located below the motor head.
After the machine has been switched off, the light will
stay on for 3 minutes.
If the knob is already set to an operating speed before
the machine is powered, the light will start flashing
as soon as the machine is powered, but the motor
will not start. First turn the knob to OFF and then set
the speed.
Tips and operating techniques
We recommend using the lid to add the
ingredients through the special spout, thus
avoiding any splashes from liquid mixtures.
Always insert and remove the lid with the
motor head in working position (D).
• To determine the ideal duration of each
preparation, monitor the mixture and keep
mixing only until it looks just like in your recipe.
• We recommend adding the ingredients as close
as possible to the bowl side and not directly into
the moving utensil. Always use the inlet on the
splash-guard spout.
• Solid ingredients such as walnuts, raisins or
candied fruit are usually added during the last
seconds of mixing at speed 1.
• The mixture should be thick enough to prevent
such ingredients from sinking to the bottom of
the saucepan while you are cooking.
• Mixtures comprising large quantities of liquid
ingredients should be blended at low speeds to
avoid splashes. Increase the speed only after
the mixture has thickened.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Danger of injuries: disconnect the appliance
before you touch the whisks/beaters or other
attachments. Failure to follow this instruction may
result in fractures, cuts or bruises.
• Clean the outside of the machine with a soft
damp cloth.
• Remove any utensils before cleaning the
machine.
• Wash the flat beater, dough hook and steel bowl
using warm water and detergent. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
Handwash the wire whisk.
• Utensils and bowls should be washed
as soon as possible after use to prevent
any food from drying up on the surface.
Do not use abrasive detergents or wire wool
to clean the machine.
DISPOSAL OF OLD
ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Wa-
ste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE), requires that old household electri-
cal appliances must not be disposed of in
the normal unsorted municipal waste stre-
am.
Old appliances must be collected separately
in order to optimise the recovery and
recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the
impact on human health and the environment.
The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product
reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose
of the appliance it must be separately collected. Con-
sumers should contact their local authority or retailer
for information concerning the correct disposal of their
old appliance.
