4. Insert Attachment: Select the desired attachment (dough hook, flat beater, or wire whip). Insert the attachment shaft into the accessory port on the mixer head. Push upwards and twist to secure it.
5. Lower Mixer Head: Hold the mixer head and push the tilt-head release lever again. Gently lower the head until it clicks into its locked position.

Speed Guide:

• Speed 1-3 (Dough Hook): For heavy mixtures like bread dough, pasta dough, or pie crusts. Start slow and gradually increase speed.
• Speed 2-4 (Flat Beater): For medium-heavy mixtures such as batters for cakes, cookies, and brownies, or for creaming butter and sugar.
• Speed 5-6 (Wire Whip): For light mixtures like whipping cream, egg whites, or meringues. Use higher speeds for aeration.
• Pulse (P): Provides short bursts of power for quick mixing or incorporating ingredients.

Mixing Tips:

• Always start mixing at a low speed to prevent ingredients from splashing, then gradually increase to the desired speed.
• Use the pouring shield to add ingredients while the mixer is running, minimizing mess.
• For optimal results, ensure ingredients like butter and eggs are at room temperature unless specified otherwise in your recipe.
• The planetary mixing action ensures thorough mixing, but occasionally stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl may be necessary for very small quantities or thick batters.

• Storage: Store the mixer and its accessories in a dry place.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your mixer, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Mixer does not turn on:
  • Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet.
  • Check if the speed control knob is set to an active speed (not '0').
  • Verify the mixer head is fully lowered and locked into place.
• Attachments do not reach ingredients at the bottom of the bowl:
  • This can occur with very small quantities of ingredients. Stop the mixer and manually scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula.
• Mixer is unstable or moves during operation:
  • Ensure the mixer is placed on a clean, dry, and flat surface for the suction cups to adhere properly.
  • Check that the mixing bowl is correctly locked into the base.
• Overheating: The mixer has overheating and overload protection. If it stops unexpectedly, turn it off, unplug it, and let it cool down for at least 20-30 minutes before resuming use. Reduce the load if mixing very heavy ingredients.
