ElectricalRequirement

The Stand Mixer is designed for use with 120
VAC, 60 Hz (240 VAC, 50 Hz International) only.
It has a grounded plug and should not be
modified in any way. Do not use an extension
cord or an adapter with this Stand Mixer.
A short power supply cord is provided (with the
exception of the Commercial unit) to reduce the
risks resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord. If the power supply
cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or
service technician install an outlet near the area
where the Stand Mixer will be used.
