Do not use an extension cord.  
Failure to follow these  
instructions can result in  
death, fire, or electrical shock.  
Troubleshooting Problems  
Please read the following before  
If your Stand Mixer should  
malfunction or fail to operate,  
please check the following:  
- Is the Stand Mixer plugged in?  
- Is the fuse in the circuit to the Stand  
Mixer in working order? If you have a  
circuit breaker box, be sure the circuit  
is closed.  
- Turn the Stand Mixer off for 10-15  
seconds, then turn it back on. If the  
mixer still does not start, allow it to  
cool for 30 minutes before turning it  
back on.  
calling your service center.  
1. The Stand Mixer may warm up during  
use. Under heavy loads with extended  
mixing time periods, you may not be  
able to comfortably touch the top of  
the Stand Mixer. This is normal.  
2. The Stand Mixer may emit a pungent  
odor, especially when new. This is  
common with electric motors.  
3. If the flat beater hits the bowl, stop  
the Stand Mixer. See “Beater to  
Bowl Clearance”.  
If the problem is not due to one of the  
above items, see the KitchenAid®  
Warranty. Do not return the Stand Mixer  
to the retailer, as they do not provide  
service.

Using Your KitchenAid® Attachments  
Flat Beater for normal to heavy mixtures:  
cakes  
creamed frostings  
candies  
cookies  
pie pastry  
biscuits  
quick breads  
meat loaf  
mashed potatoes  
Wire Whip for mixtures that need air incorporated:  
eggs  
sponge cakes  
angel food cakes  
mayonnaise  
egg whites  
heavy cream  
boiled frostings  
some candies  
Dough Hook for mixing and kneading yeast doughs:  
breads  
rolls  
coffee cakes  
buns  
Mixing Time  
Your KitchenAid® Stand Mixer will mix  
faster and more thoroughly than most  
other electric stand mixers. Therefore,  
the mixing time in most recipes must  
be adjusted to avoid overbeating. With  
cakes, for example, beating time may be  
half as long as with other stand mixers.  
Mixer Use  
The Stand Mixer may warm up during  
use. Under heavy loads with extended  
mixing time, you may not be able to  
comfortably touch the top of the Stand  
Mixer. This is normal.  
If the Stand Mixer becomes overloaded,  
it will automatically shut off to prevent  
damage. See Auto-Reset Motor  
Protection”.  
NOTE: 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.  
Turn Stand Mixer off before scraping.

Speed Control Guide – 10 Speed Stand Mixers  
All speeds feature Soft Start™ operation, which minimizes splash-out and flour puff.  
The mixer will start slowly before increasing to the selected speed.  
Number of Speed  
Speed  
Stir  
STIR  
For slow stirring, combining, mashing,  
starting all mixing procedures. Use to add  
flour and dry ingredients to batter, and add  
liquids to dry ingredients. Do not use STIR  
speed to mix or knead yeast doughs.  
2
SLOW MIXING  
For slow mixing, mashing, faster stirring.  
Use to mix and knead yeast doughs, heavy  
batters and candies; start mashing potatoes  
or other vegetables; cut shortening into  
flour; mix thin or splashy batters.  
4
MIXING,  
BEATING  
For mixing semi-heavy batters, such as  
cookies. Use to combine sugar and  
shortening and to add sugar to egg whites  
for meringues. Medium speed for cake  
mixes.  
6
BEATING,  
CREAMING  
For medium-fast beating (creaming) or  
whipping. Use to finish mixing cake,  
doughnut, and other batters. High speed  
for cake mixes.  
8
FAST BEATING,  
WHIPPING  
For whipping cream, egg whites, and  
boiled frostings.  
10  
FAST WHIPPING  
For whipping small amounts of cream, egg  
whites or for final whipping of mashed  
potatoes.  
NOTE: Use speed 2 to mix or knead yeast dough or fondants. Use of any other speed  
with heavy doughs may cause mixer to stop rotating to limit mixer damage. This is  
normal operation. If this occurs, turn the speed selector to off, and then turn back on to  
a lower speed.

Beater to Bowl Clearance  
Your Stand Mixer is adjusted at the factory so the flat beater just clears the bottom of  
the bowl. If, for any reason, the flat beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far away  
from the bowl, you can correct the clearance easily.  
1. Unplug Stand Mixer or disconnect  
power.  
Raise Bowl  
Lower Bowl  
2. Place bowl lift lever in down position.  
3. Attach flat beater.  
4. Adjust so flat beater just clears bottom  
surface of bowl when in lifted position  
by turning screw (A) counterclockwise  
to raise the bowl and clockwise to  
lower the bowl. Just a slight turn is all  
that is required: the screw will not  
rotate more than 1/4 turn (90 degrees)  
in either direction. (The full range of  
adjustment is 1/2 turn, or 180 degrees.)  
A
5. Place bowl lift lever in up position to  
check clearance.  
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 if necessary.  
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, the beater or whip  
may wear.

Mixing Tips  
Using Your Recipes with the Mixer  
Adding Ingredients  
There are a number of methods that  
can be used for making cake with your  
KitchenAid® Stand Mixer.  
Always add ingredients as close to side of  
bowl as possible, not directly into moving  
beater.  
For example, the “quick mix” method  
(sometimes referred to as the “dump”  
method) is ideal for simple cakes, such as  
yellow cake and white cake. This method  
calls for combining dry ingredients with  
most or all liquid ingredients in one step.  
NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom of  
bowl are not thoroughly mixed, then the  
beater is not far enough into the bowl.  
See “Beater to Bowl Clearance”.  
Cake Mixes  
When preparing packaged cake mixes,  
use Speed 2 for low speed, Speed 4 for  
medium speed, and Speed 6 for high  
speed. For best results, mix for the time  
stated on the package directions.  
More elaborate cakes, such as a torte,  
should be prepared using the traditional  
cake mixing method. With this method,  
sugar and the shortening, butter,  
or margarine are thoroughly mixed  
(creamed) before other ingredients are  
added. For all cakes, mixing times may  
change because your KitchenAid® Stand  
Mixer works more quickly than other  
mixers. In general, mixing a cake with  
the KitchenAid® Stand Mixer will take  
about half the time called for in most  
cake recipes.  
Adding Nuts, Raisins,  
or Candied Fruits  
In general, solid materials should be  
folded in the last few seconds of mixing  
on Stir Speed. The batter should be thick  
enough to prevent the fruit or nuts from  
sinking to the bottom of the pan during  
baking. Sticky fruits should be dusted  
with flour for better distribution in the  
batter.  
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.”  
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.  
To select the best mixing speeds, see  
“Speed Control Guide”.

Basic White Bread  
1/2 cup (120 mL)  
low-fat milk  
3 tbs (45 mL) sugar  
2 tsp (10 mL) salt  
3 tbs (45 mL) butter or  
margarine  
2 packages active dry  
yeast  
1-1/2 cups (355 mL)

2 and mix about 1 minute.  
Continuing on Speed 2, add remaining flour, 1/2 cup  
(120 mL) at a time, and mix about 1-1/2 minutes,  
or until dough starts to clean sides of bowl. Knead  
on Speed 2 about 2 minutes longer, or until dough  
is smooth and elastic. Dough will be slightly sticky to  
the touch.  
Place dough in greased bowl, turning to grease top.  
Cover. Let rise in warm place, free from draft, about  
1 hour, or until doubled in bulk.  
Punch dough down and divide in half. Shape each half  
into a loaf, and place in greased 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 2-1/2"  
(21.25 x 11.25 x 6.25 cm) baking pans. Cover. Let rise  
in warm place, free from draft, about 1 hour, or until  
doubled in bulk.
