This document describes the Livoo Stand Mixer, a versatile kitchen appliance designed to assist with various sweet and savory culinary tasks. It is an instruction manual that provides comprehensive guidance on the safe and effective use, assembly, operation, and maintenance of the stand mixer.
The primary function of the Livoo Stand Mixer is to mix, knead, and beat ingredients for a wide range of recipes. It is equipped with a powerful motor and a robust design to handle different consistencies, from light egg whites to dense doughs. The appliance is intended for household and similar applications, including staff kitchen areas in shops, offices, and other working environments, farmhouses, hotels, motels, residential-type environments, and bed and breakfast establishments.
Usage Features:
The stand mixer comes with a stainless steel bowl with a capacity of 5 liters, allowing for the preparation of substantial quantities of ingredients. It offers 6 speed variations, providing precise control over the mixing process, which is crucial for achieving desired textures and consistencies for different recipes.
The appliance includes three essential tools:
- Metal Whisk: Ideal for whipping egg whites, cream, and other light mixtures, creating airy and fluffy results.
- Dough Hook: Specifically designed for kneading heavy doughs such as those for bread, pizza, and pasta, ensuring thorough mixing and development of gluten.
- Beater: Suitable for beating and mixing various pasta pies, pancakes, cakes, and desserts, providing a consistent blend of ingredients.
Assembly and Operation:
Before the first use, it is crucial to ensure the appliance is unplugged and placed on a stable surface. All accessories, including the bowl, lids, and tools, should be cleaned with soapy water, rinsed thoroughly, and dried. The main unit and base should be wiped with a damp soft cloth.
To operate the mixer:
- Release the Head: Press button "6" to release the head of the mixer, allowing access for placing accessories.
- Assemble the Bowl: Place the filled bowl onto the base and twist it in an anti-clockwise direction to secure it.

- Lower the Head: Press the mixer head down by turning button "6" in an anti-clockwise direction until it locks.
- Anti-Projection Cover: An anti-projection cover with an opening can be added if desired to prevent splattering during operation.
Mixing and Kneading Dough:
- For dough, a suggested flour to liquid ratio is 5:3.
