Maintenance & Cleaning

1. Cleaning the Bread Pan and Paddles

• The non-stick ceramic bread pan and kneading paddles are dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended for longer product life.
• Use warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
• If paddles are stuck in the bread, use the paddle removal hook provided.

2. Cleaning the Machine Exterior

• Wipe the exterior of the bread maker with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Ensure the machine is unplugged and completely cool before cleaning.

Troubleshooting

• Bread Pan Difficulty: If you experience difficulty placing the bread pan, ensure the bottom of the pan is correctly aligned with the drive shaft and twisted clockwise until it clicks into place.
• Lid Appears Loose: The lid is designed to have a slight looseness for proper venting during the baking process. This is normal and not a defect.
• Digital Display Lock: If the digital display locks, refer to the user manual for specific instructions on how to unlock it or make adjustments. This is a safety feature.
• Unsatisfactory Bread Results: Ensure you are following recipes precisely, especially regarding water temperature and ingredient measurements. Experiment with different recipes and settings to find what works best for your ingredients and preferences.
