When the bread/dough is done, 0:00 will appear in the display and an audible alert will sound to let you know it is done. If in the bread
mode, the bread maker will automatically go into the Keep Warm mode for up to 3 hours or until the bread maker is turned off. If in
the Dough mode, the bread maker will automatically turn itself off when the dough is complete. Unplug cord from electrical outlet.
Remove bread or dough from bread maker. Always use potholder or oven mitt when removing hot bread pan from bread maker after
baking. Cool loaf on rack 15 to 30 minutes before slicing.
CAUTION:
To avoid burn injury, do not touch cover, vent or sidewalls of bread maker during the bake cycles, as these surfaces are
hot. Do not put hands inside oven chamber or touch the heating unit after completion of the bake cycle, as these surfaces are also hot.
SLICING BREAD
Always allow bread to cool at least 15 to 30 minutes before slicing. If you attempt to slice the bread immediately after baking, it will
be very difficult to slice and will be sticky.
STORING BREAD
Since homemade bread contains no preservatives, it does not stay as fresh for as long as commercially made bread. Store your bread in
a plastic bag to keep it from drying out. Keep the bread at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to one week. For longer
storage, put the bread in the freezer. Slice before freezing so you can remove only the number of slices you need at a time.
CLEAN AFTER EACH USE
DO NOT IMMERSE BOTTOM OF BREAD PAN IN WATER!
The bread pan is not immersible and should never be washed in an automatic dishwasher. This can cause damage to the bearing that
turns the knead bar and reduce the non-stick qualities of the coating, causing the bread to stick.
1. Unplug cord from electrical outlet and allow bread maker to cool before cleaning.
2. The bread pan and knead bar must be cleaned after each use to ensure performance. After bread is removed from pan, fill pan
half full with warm water and small amount of dish soap. Set pan in empty sink or on hot pad and allow to soak for 5 to 10
minutes or until knead bar can be lifted off shaft. Twist bar slightly to loosen. The knead bar must soak in water before it can
be removed. Wash inside of pan and knead bar with a soft cloth, rinse and dry. Replace bar on shaft.
Be sure that shaft in pan is kept clean so that knead bar fits properly.
DO NOT
use any type of utensil or tool to clean the
gasket around the shaft as damage will occur and result in leakage.
DO NOT
use any abrasive scouring pads or cleansers on
bread pan or knead bar as damage to finish can occur. The coating inside of bread pan may change color over time, which is
normal and does not affect the bread or dough.
CAUTION
: To prevent personal injury or electric shock, do not immerse bread maker base, its cord or plug in water or other liquid.
3. Wipe inside of chamber and outside surfaces of bread maker with a damp cloth if necessary. The cover is removable for
cleaning if needed. Simply open it 45 degrees and pull toward you. Wipe cover with a damp, soapy cloth and dry.
DO NOT
immerse cover in water or place in automatic dishwasher as water will get in between the parts and cause damage.
Replace cover by aligning attachment hooks into hinge on back of bread maker. Cover should move freely up and down after
being replaced.
