REMOVING THE ATTACHMENTS
Switch off the mixer and unplug from the socket. Scrape off any mixture with a rubber
spatula. Take hold of the stems of the attachments and press the eject button to
release them.
CARE AND CLEANING
Always ensure the mixer is switched off and unplugged from the socket before
cleaning. Wash the attachments in warm, soapy water, or in the cutlery basket of your
dishwasher. Rinse well and dry. Wipe the mixer with a damp cloth, then dry. CAUTION:
never immerse the mixer in water, and never attempt to wash the attachments without
removing them from the mixer first.
HELPFUL HINTS
•
To avoid splattering, lower the beaters into the food before switching the mixer
on. Lift the beaters out of the mixing bowl after switching the mixer off.
•
If you need to add extra ingredients, switch off the mixer and rest on its heel,
with the beaters over your mixing bowl to catch any drips.
•
The mixer is designed to run for up to 10 minutes at a time. Switching off and
letting the mixer rest for at least 10 minutes will allow the motor to cool down,
before starting again.
•
After the mixer has been switched off, the beaters will continue to move for a
short while, so please take care.
RECYCLING YOUR ELECTRICALS
Along with many other high street retailers, Lakeland has joined a scheme whereby
customers can take their unwanted electricals to recycling points set up around the
country. Visit www.recycle-more.co.uk to find your nearest recycling point.
BEFORE USING YOUR HAND MIXER FOR THE FIRST TIME
Carefully unpack the mixer and remove any packaging. Wash the stainless steel beaters
and dough hooks in warm, soapy water, or in the cutlery basket of your dishwasher.
Rinse well and dry.
ADDING THE ATTACHMENTS
Always ensure the mixer is unplugged before inserting any attachments. Push the
beaters or dough hooks into the openings until they click firmly into place. Do not use
a mixture of attachments. PLEASE NOTE: the dough hook with the metal collar only fits
into the opening on the left-hand side, as shown below.

MIXING
A kitchen essential, the hand mixer saves a good deal of time and work when whisking
cream, egg whites, batter and cake mix, and making pastry and dough. The beaters
incorporate air into light, fluffy mixtures, whilst the dough hooks are designed for
heavier, thicker mixtures.
1.
Set the speed switch to ‘0’ before plugging in the mixer.
2.
The mixer has 5 speed settings. We recommend starting at low speed to avoid
splattering or splashing, then gradually increasing speed.
Level 1: to begin mixing.
Levels 2-3: to fold, stir, mix and beat, especially dough, pastry and cake mixture.
Levels 4-5: to whisk egg whites, batter and cream.
3.
For an extra burst of speed and power, press the turbo button. This allows you to
mix more quickly or to increase the speed during heavy-duty tasks. Please do not
hold the turbo button for longer than 5 minutes.
