or fail to operate, check the
following:
1. Is the mixer plugged in? 
2. Is the fuse in the circuit to the
mixer in working order? If you have
a circuit breaker box, make sure
the circuit is closed.
3. Try unplugging the mixer, then

Hand Mixer Features
The KitchenAid®Artisan®7-Speed and Professional 9-Speed Hand Mixers offer
a host of conveniences, including extra low speeds for better control with heavy
mixtures, and a special Soft Start™ Speed that helps prevent splattering when
mixing begins. The Clean Touch™ Speed Control is simple to use and a breeze
to clean, and the digital display shows you the mixing speed at a glance. An
electronic sensor automatically adjusts the mixer power to maintain a steady
beater speed when the firmness of your mix changes.
The Turbo Beater™ Accessories that come with your mixer have an open
shape with no center post: this design permits thorough mixing with no
clogging, little splashing, and minimal food collection. 
Your mixer is designed to mix cookie doughs and cake batters, mash
potatoes, and whip heavy cream and egg whites. With the optional dough
hooks and liquid blender rod, the mixer can also knead yeast bread doughs and
blend smoothies, milkshakes, soups, and sauces. 
The KitchenAid
®Hand Mixer is designed to deliver the same legendary quality
and reliability that have been built into KitchenAid®Stand Mixers since 1919.
