• To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or damage to the product, never use more than one type of attachment at a time.

• Do not process more than one batch of heavy cookie dough without interruption. Allow the mixer to cool for at least 15 minutes before beginning the second batch. Never process ingredients for more than 4 minutes continuously for cookie dough.

• Do not insert knives, forks, spoons, etc. into the mixer while it is operating.

• If the mixer stalls, turn it off and unplug before removing any obstruction.

• To avoid damaging the mixer, do not try to scrape the bowl while the mixer is operating.

• Maximum rating is based on the attachment that draws the greatest load. Other recommended attachments may draw significantly less power.

• To avoid product damage, do not immerse the mixer head or stand in water or other liquid.

• Do not abuse the power cord. Never carry the mixer by the cord or yank to disconnect from the outlet; instead grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.

• Make sure the cord is not located where it may be tripped over, pulled or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

• Make sure the speed control is in the OFF position and the power cord is unplugged before attaching or removing accessories and before cleaning.

• Always test recipes using the slowest speed first and then gradually increase the speed as needed.

• Do not use the dough hooks on speed settings higher than speed 2.

A. 12-Speed Control Dial – The wide range of speeds provides greater control from ultra slow to ultra high speeds. The dial may be set for any speed from 1-12.

B. Mixer Head – The soft grip handle has been ergonomically designed for balance and comfort.

C. Head-Lock Button – Locks the mixer head in the “up” or “down” position. The mixer will not operate unless the head is in the locked down position.

D. Attachment Eject Button – Located for easy access to release the attachments quickly.

E. Chrome Beaters – These easy-to-clean beaters are designed without a center post, making clean-up easier. The unique design of the beaters allows for thorough, fast mixing results for all types of batters.

F. Dough Hooks – Ideal for kneading bread dough, pizza dough and other yeast doughs.

G. Whisks – Best for whipping cream and beating egg whites.

H. Two Glass Bowls – The combination of a large (4.6-quart) and small (2.2-quart) bowl allows for mixing a variety of batch sizes. The bowls are designed for nesting for easy, compact storage.

I. Turntable – The turntable provides two settings. Place the turntable guide in the outside position for the large mixing bowl. Place the turntable guide in the inside position for the small mixing bowl.

J. Beater shafts

Before preparing the mixer for use, be sure the speed control dial is in the OFF position and the electrical cord is unplugged. Wash bowls and attachments in hot, soapy water, or in the dishwasher. Rinse and dry.

The turntable may be adjusted depending on which mixing bowl is being used. While looking at the stand mixer from the front, lift the turntable plate slightly and slide the turntable control to the proper setting. The large bowl will have a post at the base to ensure proper centering. The small bowl has two indents on its base to help center it properly on the turntable.

To raise the head, depress the Head-Lock button located at the rear of the Stand Mixer. While this button is depressed, hold the handle to lift the head to the raised position. The head will lock in place. The mixer will not operate unless the head is in the locked down position. Once the head is in the locked down position, a “click” will be heard which indicates the motor head is locked into place. To lower the head, depress the Head-Lock button and gently guide the head down to the mixing position. A “click” will indicate the mixer head has been locked into position.

• Chrome Beaters

• Whisks

• Dough Hooks

When using the beaters, notice the plastic tab on the base of one of the beaters. Insert attachment with the plastic tab into the beater shaft socket closest to the bowl and insert the other attachment into the other beater shaft socket. If the attachment is properly seated, you will hear a “click” when it locks into place.

To use the dough hooks, insert the dough hook with the plastic tab into the attachment socket that is closest to the bowl. Insert the other dough hook into the other socket. The dough hooks should fit snugly into position to create the proper spacing for kneading.

To use the whisks, insert either whisk into either beater shaft socket. The whisks are interchangeable.

The turntable should be set for the proper setting, the large bowl for use and the small bowl for use. After selecting the proper setting, set the large bowl of your choice using the large bowl, and the small bowl for your choice of the small bowl. The bowl will seat properly in the turntable cradle and sit securely in the cradle on the mixer base.

Note: Mixing bowls should not be used in a conventional oven, microwave oven, or on a direct heat source. When mixing, the bowl will turn to provide better mixing results. The bowl should be turned by hand if needed.

After selecting and inserting the proper attachments and placing the bowl on the turntable, plug the mixer cord into an outlet. Turn the Speed Control Dial to the ON and OFF for selecting your desired mixing speed, starting with speed 1 and increasing to desired speed setting. See the Mixing Guide for assistance.

Rotate the speed control dial in either direction to increase or decrease mixing speed. The dial includes numbers as a guide for approximate mixing speeds.

The MIXMASTER Heritage Series mixer is equipped with a soft-start feature. The LED indicator on the top of the mixer head will illuminate to indicate an approved speed. If the unit stalls, the LED will flash.

During use, the top of the mixer head may become warm to the touch. This is normal.

Note: Do not scrape the bowl while the mixer is in operation. To maximize the mixing of all ingredients, it may be necessary to periodically scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure that all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.

Please keep in mind that the different mixing tasks and colored speed bands on the Speed Control Dial vary with each recipe. Therefore, speed settings may vary.

Most recipes should be mixed at the lowest speed until the ingredients are well blended. Then, begin building from there to the appropriate speed range called for by the particular recipe.

When folding ingredients such as nuts, raisins, and chocolate chips into batters and doughs, use the lowest speed setting on the mixer for a short amount of time.

When building up to a recipe that requires the addition of dry ingredients, such as flour, followed by liquids, it is helpful to add the dry and wet ingredients in parts. To do this, alternate between one-half of the dry and one-half of the liquid ingredients, always ending with the dry ingredients. Start at the slowest speed, and increase the speed to the speed specified by the particular mixing task.
