Speed Control should always be set on lowest speed for starting, then gradually moved to desired higher speed to avoid splashing ingredients out of bowl. See the chart below for suggested speed control settings. Electronic Speed Sensor Control The Mixer has an Electronic Speed Sensor Control that is designed to maintain the same speed under different load conditions (such as when flour is added to a batter). You might hear slight speed variations as the Mixer electronically adjusts to the speed at which it is set.
