When it comes to power, you can either use the regular power source or opt for battery operation (make sure to get 9V batteries separately). As for maintenance, keep the mixer clean from dust. Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. Also, when not in use, store it in a safe place to prevent any physical damage.
