Troubleshooting

Mixer does not turn on

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Check that the mixer head is fully lowered and locked. Verify the speed control is not set to '0'.

Accessory is not spinning

Confirm the accessory is correctly attached and locked into place. Ensure the mixer head is lowered and the speed selector is above '0'. Check for any blockages around the accessory shaft.

Uneven mixing or ingredients not reaching the bottom

Adjust the height of the beater/whisk if possible (refer to manual). Ensure the bowl is properly seated and locked. Try using the planetary rotation setting effectively.

Motor seems to struggle or overheat

Do not overload the bowl beyond recommended capacity. Reduce mixing time for very stiff doughs or ensure ingredients are at room temperature. Allow the mixer to cool down if it overheats.

Splash guard does not fit securely

Ensure the splash guard is aligned correctly with the rim of the bowl and the mixer head before locking it into place. Check for any debris obstructing the fit.
