SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS -
Your bread maker needs no special care other than cleaning. If servicing
becomes necessary, return your bread maker to The West Bend Company. See Warranty section in this booklet for service
details. Do not attempt to repair it yourself.
For Household Use Only.
An off odor from motor may be noted with first
use, which is normal and will disappear with use.
Electric Cord Statement -
CAUTION:
Your bread maker has a short cord as a safety precaution to prevent personal
injury or property damage resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with the cord. Do not allow children to be
near or use this bread maker without close adult supervision. If you must use a longer cord set or an extension cord when
using the bread maker, the cord must be arranged so it will not drape or hang over the edge of a countertop or tabletop,
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally. To prevent electric shock, personal injury or fire, the
electrical rating of the extension cord you use must be the same or more than the wattage of the bread maker (wattage is
stamped on underside of bread maker).
Important Safety Instructions -
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety
feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Never use with an extension cord unless plug can be fully inserted. Do not
attempt to defeat this safety feature. Your West Bend® Bread & Dough Maker was designed for use with 120 volt, 60 Hz
electrical service ONLY. Use of your bread & dough maker with a converter or transformer will destroy the electronic
control and will void your warranty
TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, READ AND FOLLOW THE
INSTRUCTIONS AND/OR WARNINGS IN THIS CARE/USE INSTRUCTIONAL MANUAL.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON PROTECTING ELECTRONIC CONTROL -
To Protect bread
maker’s electronic control against possible damage caused by surges in electrical power line, we recommend using a surge
protector device, available in the electronics department of most discount/hardware stores. Simply plug surge protector into
electrical outlet, then plug bread maker cord into receptacle of surge protector.
