Using Your Hand Mixer Operating the Speed Control This KitchenAid® Hand Mixer will beat faster and more thoroughly than most other electric hand mixers. Therefore, the beating time in most recipes must be adjusted to avoid over beating. Beating time is faster due to larger beater sizes. To help determine the ideal beating time, observe the batter or dough and beat only until it has the desired appearance described in your recipe, such as "smooth and creamy". To select the best beating speeds, use the "Speed control guide" section. 1 Plug the Hand Mixer into an electrical outlet. 2 Slide the Power switch to the "I" (ON) position. The motor will automatically start at Speed 1, and the "1" on the speed indicator control will light up. 3 Touch the "UP (arrow)" button to increase the mixing speed to the desired setting. If necessary, touch the "DOWN (arrow)" button to decrease the mixing speed. See the "Speed control guide" for more information. NOTE: The Hand Mixer automatically starts at Speed 1 every time it is turned on, regardless of the Speed setting at the time the Hand Mixer is shut off. 4 When mixing job is finished, slide the Power switch to the "O" (Off) position. Unplug the Hand Mixer before removing accessories. 10
