lower speed to help avoid ingredient splash-out and “our puff” at start-up, then quickly

increases to the selected speed for optimal performance.

NOTE: The speed control lever can be set between the speeds listed in the above chart

to obtain speeds 3, 5, 7, and 9 if a finer adjustment is required. Do not exceed Speed 2

when preparing yeast doughs as this may cause damage to the Stand Mixer.

PLACING/REMOVING THE POURING SHIELD*

To place pouring shield: Turn speed

control to “0”. Unplug Stand Mixer.

Attach your chosen accessory. See

“Attaching/removing the flat beater,

wire whip, or dough hook” section.

From the front of the Stand Mixer,

slide the pouring shield over the

bowl until the shield is centered. The

bottom rim of the shield should fit

within the bowl.

* Included with select models only. Also available as an optional accessory.

BEATER TO BOWL CLEARANCE

1Turn speed control to “0”. Unplug

Stand Mixer. 2

Lift motor head. Turn screw slightly

counterclockwise (left) to raise flat

beater or clockwise (right) to lower

flat beater. Make adjustment with

flat beater, so it just clears surface

of bowl. If you over adjust the screw,

the bowl lock lever may not lock

into place.

Your Stand Mixer is adjusted at the factory so the at beater just clears the bottom of the

bowl. If, for any reason, the at beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far away from

the bowl, you can correct clearance easily.

NOTE: When properly adjusted, the flat beater will not strike on the bottom or side

of the bowl. If the flat beater or the wire whip is so close that it strikes the bottom

of the bowl, coating may wear off the beater or wires on whip may wear.

3To remove pouring shield:

Turn speed control to “0”.

Unplug Stand Mixer. 4Lift the front of the pouring shield

clear of the bowl rim and pull forward.

Remove attachment and bowl.

USING THE POURING SHIELD*

For best results, rotate the shield

so the motor head covers the

U-shaped gap in the shield. The

pouring chute will be just to the

right of the attachment hub as

you face the Stand Mixer.

2Pour the ingredients into the bowl

through the pouring chute.

Use the pouring shield to avoid having ingredients splashing out of the bowl when

mixing, as well as to easily pour ingredients in the bowl while mixing.

* Included with select models only. Also available as an optional accessory.

OPTIONAL ATTACHMENTS

KitchenAid offers a wide range of optional attachments such as food grinders or

pasta makers. They may be attached to the Stand Mixer attachment power shaft,

as shown here.

1To attach: Turn speed control

to “0”. Unplug Stand Mixer. 2Loosen attachment knob by turning

it counterclockwise. Remove

attachment hub cover.

OPERATING THE SPEED CONTROL

Plug Stand Mixer into proper

electrical outlet. Always set speed

control lever on lowest speed to

start, then gradually increase speed

to avoid splashing ingredients. See

“Speed control guide” chart.

Do not scrape bowl while Stand Mixer

is operating. The bowl and beater are

designed to provide thorough mixing

without frequent scraping. Scraping

the bowl once or twice during mixing

is usually sufficient.

NOTE: The Stand Mixer may warm up during use. Under heavy loads with extended

mixing time, the top of the unit may become hot. This is normal.

18 | TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

EGG WHITES

WHIPPED CREAM

Place room temperature egg whites in clean, dry bowl. Attach bowl and wire whip.

To avoid splashing, gradually turn to designated speed and whip to desired stage.

AMOUNT SPEED

1 egg white GRADUALLY to 10

2 or more egg whites GRADUALLY to 8

Whipping stages

With your KitchenAid Stand Mixer, egg whites whip quickly. Avoid over whipping.

Pour cold whipping cream into chilled bowl. Attach bowl and wire whip. To avoid

splashing, gradually turn to designated speed and whip to desired stage.

AMOUNT SPEED

less than 200 ml (3/4 cup) GRADUALLY to 10

more than 200 ml (3/4 cup) GRADUALLY to 8

Whipping stages

Watch cream closely during whipping. Because your KitchenAid Stand Mixer whips so

quickly, there are just a few seconds between whipping stages.

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

USING THE STAND MIXER

Loosen attachment knob by

turning it counterclockwise. Rotate

attachment slightly back and forth

while pulling out.

8Replace attachment hub cover.

Tighten attachment knob by turning

it clockwise.

NOTE: See the Use and Care Guide of each specific attachment for recommended

speed settings and operating times.

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS | 19

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

MIXING TIPS

Mixing time

Your KitchenAid Stand Mixer will mix

faster and more thoroughly than most

other electric mixers. Therefore, the

mixing time in most recipes must be

adjusted to avoid over beating.

To help determine the ideal mixing time,

observe the batter or dough and mix

only until it has the desired appearance

described in your recipe, such as “smooth

and creamy.” To select the best mixing

speeds, use the “Speed control guide”

section.

Adding ingredients

The standard procedure to follow when

mixing most batters, especially cake and

cookie batters, is to add:

1/3 dry ingredients

1/2 liquid ingredients

1/3 dry ingredients

1/2 liquid ingredients

1/3 dry ingredients

Use Speed 1 until ingredients have been

blended. Then gradually increase to

desired speed.

Always add ingredients as close to side of

bowl as possible, not directly into moving

beater. The pouring shield can be used to

simplify adding ingredients.

NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom

of bowl are not thoroughly mixed, the

beater is not far enough into the bowl.

See the “Beater to bowl clearance”

section.

Cake mixes

When preparing packaged cake mixes, use

Speed 4 for medium speed and Speed 6

for high speed. For best results, mix for the

time stated on the package directions.

Adding nuts, raisins, or candied fruits

Solid materials should be folded in the last

few seconds of mixing on Speed 1. The

batter should be thick enough to keep the

fruit or nuts from sinking to the bottom of

the pan during baking. Sticky fruits should

be dusted with our for better distribution

in the batter.

Liquid mixtures

Mixtures containing large amounts of

liquid ingredients should be mixed at lower

speeds to avoid splashing. Increase speed

only after mixture has thickened.

Kneading yeast doughs

ALWAYS use the dough hook to mix and

knead yeast doughs. Use Speed 2 to mix

or knead yeast doughs. Use of any other

speed creates high potential for unit

failure.

Do not use recipes calling for more than

900 g (7 cups) all-purpose our or 800 g

(6 cups) whole-wheat our when making

dough in a 4.3 L bowl.

Do not use recipes calling for more than

1 kg (8 cups) all-purpose our or 800 g

(6 cups) whole-wheat our when making

dough in a 4.8 L bowl.

20 | CARE AND CLEANING

Bowl, pouring shield*, white flat

beater, Flex Edge beater*, and white

dough hook may be washed in a

dishwasher. Or, clean them thoroughly

in hot sudsy water and rinse

IMPORTANT: The wire whip is not

dishwasher-safe. Clean it thoroughly

in hot sudsy water and rinse

completely before drying. Do not

store wire whip on shaft.

* Included with select models only. Also available as an optional accessory.

CARE AND CLEANING

Always be sure to unplug Stand Mixer

before cleaning. Wipe Stand Mixer

with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use

household/commercial cleaners. Wipe

off beater shaft frequently, removing

any residue that may accumulate. Do

not immerse in water.
