FAQs
Can I use other attachments with this mixer?
Yes, the kMix range is compatible with a wide variety of Kenwood attachments that fit the front high-speed hub.
Is the bowl microwave safe?
The glass bowl is designed for mixing; it is recommended to avoid sudden extreme temperature changes, such as moving it directly from the freezer to a hot oven.
How do I use the fold function?
The fold function is integrated into the speed dial; use it for gently adding light ingredients like flour or egg whites to heavier mixtures.
Does this mixer come with a splash guard?
The splash guard is standard equipment to keep your workspace clean while the mixer is running.
Can the pasta roller be cleaned in a dishwasher?
No, the pasta roller contains internal gears and should be cleaned by hand with a dry brush or cloth.
Troubleshooting
The mixer does not start.
Ensure the head is fully lowered and locked into position; the safety interlock will prevent operation if it is not secured.
Ingredients are not mixing at the bottom of the bowl.
Adjust the tool height using the adjustment screw located on the tool shaft to ensure it clears the base by a few millimeters.
Pasta sheets are tearing.
Ensure the dough has been rested properly before rolling and increase the thickness setting to avoid over-stretching.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, ensure the mixer is placed on a flat, stable surface. The tilt-head mechanism is released via a lever on the side; ensure it clicks firmly into the locked position before turning the unit on. When attaching the bowl, twist it clockwise until it locks into the base.
For the pasta roller, remove the front attachment cover on the top of the mixer head and slide the roller mechanism into the hub until it is secure.
Care instructions are straightforward: the stainless steel tools and glass bowl are dishwasher safe. The main body of the mixer should be wiped down with a damp, lint-free cloth. Do not immerse the motor base in water. The pasta attachment should be cleaned with a dry brush to remove flour residue; avoid washing the internal rollers of the pasta attachment with water to prevent corrosion or jamming.
