Care & Cleaning

Measuring spoon & cup

Wash with water.

  Not dishwasher safe

•  The colour of the inside of the unit may change with use.

Lid

Wipe with a damp cloth.

Steam vent

Wipe with a damp cloth.

Bread pan & 
kneading blade

Twist the bread pan anti-clockwise 
to remove.
Remove the kneading blade and 
wash in warm soapy water.

  Ensure the area around the shaft 

and inside the kneading blade are 
cleaned thoroughly.

  If the kneading blade is difficult to 

remove from the pan, place a small 
quantity of warm water into the pan 
and soak for 5-10 minutes. Do not 
submerge the pan in water.

Body

Wipe with a damp cloth.

Temperature 
sensor

  Wipe gently to 

avoid damaging the 
temperature sensor.

To protect the non-stick finish

Bread pan and kneading blade are coated with a non-stick finish to avoid stains and to 
make it easier to remove bread.
To avoid damaging it, please follow the instructions below.

•  Do not use hard utensils such as a knife or a fork when removing bread from the bread pan.

(If the bread cannot be easily removed from the bread pan, leave the bread pan for 
5-10 minutes to cool, making sure that it is not left unattended where somebody or 
something may get burnt.)
After that, shake the pan several times using oven gloves. 
(Hold the handle down so that it does not get in the way of bread.)

•  Ensure that the kneading blade is not embedded in the bread loaf before slicing it.

If it is embedded, wait for the loaf to cool and remove it. In removing the blade, press on the 
base of the loaf and manipulate the blade gently to avoid damaging the loaf.
(Do not use hard or sharp utensils such as a knife or a fork.)
Be careful not to get burns as the kneading blade may still be hot.

•  Use the soft sponge when cleaning bread pan and kneading blade.

Do not use anything abrasive such as cleansers or scouring pads.

   Hard, coarse or large ingredients such as flours with whole or ground grains, sugar, or the addition of nuts 

and seeds may damage the non-stick finish of the bread pan. If using large chunk of ingredient, break into 
small pieces. Please make sure to follow the recipe quantities stated.

Dispenser lid

Remove and wash with water.

  Raise the dispenser lid to an angle of approximately 75 degrees. Align the 

connections and pull towards you to remove or push carefully back at the same 
angle to attach. (Wait until the machine has cooled down first, because it will be 
very hot immediately after use)

  Take care not to damage the seal. (Damage could lead to leakage of steam, condensation, or 

deformation)

Raisin nut dispenser

Remove and wash with water.

  Wash after each use to 

remove any residue.
