Adjusting the mixing time
The count-up timer
The count-up timer is especially useful to gauge mixing time. You
can monitor the time it takes to thoroughly mix the ingredients, so
that the next time you mix the same ingredients you can set the
count-down timer for the specific time.
The count-up timer will automatically begin counting up as soon as
the dial is rotated from ‘Off’ to one of the speeds. When the dial is
turned to „Pause“ the total time will be displayed on the LCD and
will flash. When the dial is turned to „OFF“, the LCD display will reset back to „0:00“.
The count-down timer
The count-down timer is especially useful for any recipe that specifies the length of time
ingredients should be mixed. For example, if a recipe reads, “beat for 3 minutes”, you can
set the count-down timer to 3 minutes by pressing the up/down arrows. After 3 minutes of
mixing, an alarm will sound and the motor will automatically turn off. The count-down timer
will flash “OFF”. The control dial must to be rotated to the “OFF” position to reset the timer
and to continue mixing.
To set the count-down timer, press the up or down arrows until the
desired mixing time is displayed on the LCD screen.
nOTe: Press and hold the arrows down to scroll through the timer
setting more quickly.
Rotate the dial clockwise to select the desired speed and to begin
mixing. When the timer has finished counting down, „0:00” will
flash on the LCD screen and a beep will sound to notify you that the time has expired. The
stand mixer will automatically turn the motor off. The control dial must be rotated to the ‚OFF‘
position to reset the timer and to continue mixing.
nOTe: The maximum time displayed on the timer is „9:59“. The stand mixer will automati-
cally switch Off at 9 minutes 59 seconds. The control dial needs to be rotated to the “Off”
position to reset the timer and to continue mixing.
Pause mode
While mixing, at any stage, you can rotate the control dial to the “pause” setting. This
will turn the motor off and “pause” the timer. This enables you to assess the mixing progress
or add additional ingredients without effecting the timer.
For example, if you are mixing using the ‘count-up timer’ mode, you can rotate the control
dial from one of the mixing speeds to “pause”. The mixer motor will stop and the timer will
“pause”. Once ready, you can rotate the dial back to one of the mixing speeds, the timer
will continue to coun tup from the exact time it was paused. Alternatively, if you have turned
the mixer to “pause” you can then reset the timer to 0:00 by rotating the dial to “OFF”
position.
If using the “pause” function in ‘countdown timer’ mode, you can suspend the timer at any
stage during the count-down process by rotating the control dial to the “pause” setting.
