Troubleshooting
Mixer does not turn on.
Check that the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Ensure the head is locked down and the speed control is not set to 0. Try a different power outlet.
Attachments are not mixing properly.
Verify the correct attachment is selected for the task. Ensure the bowl is correctly seated and the attachment is securely fixed. Check the speed setting; lower speeds are for initial mixing, higher speeds for whipping or aeration.
Motor sounds strained or overheats.
Reduce the amount of ingredients in the bowl, especially for heavy doughs. Do not exceed the maximum capacity. Allow the mixer to cool down if it feels excessively hot. Ensure the timer is not set excessively high, causing continuous operation without breaks.
Mincer is jamming.
Ensure meat is properly chilled and cut into appropriate-sized pieces for the mincer. Do not force ingredients through. Clean the mincer parts thoroughly after each use as food residue can cause blockages.
Timer not working.
Ensure the mixer is running at a speed setting above 0. The timer will only function when the motor is active. Check if the timer has reached its set limit and stopped the mixer.
