Electrical Requirements

Volts: 120 A.C. only. Hertz: 60

The wattage rating for your stand

mixer is printed on the serial plate.

Do not use an extension cord. If the

power supply cord is too short,

have a qualified electrician or

serviceman install an outlet near the

appliance.

The maximum rating is based on

the attachment that draws the

greatest load (power). Other

recommended attachments may

draw significantly less power.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong

outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

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

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 the

"Beater to Bowl Clearance"

section.

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.

If the problem is not due to one

of the above items, see the

"Arranging for Service" section.

Do not return the stand mixer to

the retailer as they do not provide

service.

Keep a copy of the sales receipt

showing the date of purchase.

Proof of purchase will assure you of

in-warranty service.
