Question 2
Why does my bread sometimes have some flour on the side crust?
In some cases, the flour mix may remain on the corners of the baking pan. When this happens, it usually can be eaten or simply trim off that portion the outer crust with a sharp knife.
Question 1
What should I do if the kneading blade comes out with the bread?
Remove it with a pair of plastic tongs before slicing the bread. Since the blade can be disconnected from the pan, it is not a malfunction if it comes out in your bread.

Questions about general performanceQuestion 7

and operation

When setting the timer for morning, why

 

does the machine make sounds late at night?

 

The machine must start operation when the time

 

delay reaches the start time of the program so that

 

the bread will be ready. These sounds are made by

 

the motor when kneading the dough. It is a normal

 

operation, not a malfunction.

of

Question 3

Why isn't the dough mixing? I can hear the motor running.

The Kneading Blade or baking pan may not be inserted properly. Make sure the pan is facing the right way and that it has ‘clicked’ and seated into the bottom of the breadmaker.

Question 4

How long does it take to make bread? Timings for each setting are outlined earlier.

Question 5

Why can't I use the timer when baking with fresh milk?

The milk will spoil if left sitting in the machine too long. Fresh ingredients such as eggs and milk should never be used with the delayed timer feature.

Question 6

Why do I have to add the ingredients in a certain order?

This allows the breadmaker to mix the ingredients in the most efficient manner possible. It also serves to keep the yeast from combining with the liquid before the dough is started to mix, which is essential on the time delay.

Question 8

The kneading blade is stuck in the bread pan. After baking how do I get it out?

The kneading blade may ‘stick’ in place after baking. Running warm or hot water over the blade should loosen it enough to be removed. If still stuck, soak in hot water for about 30 minutes.

Question 9

Can I wash the baking pan in the dishwasher?

No. The baking pan and kneading blade must be washed by hand.

Question 10

What will happen if I leave the finished bread in the baking pan?

Whilst still in the breadmaker for the first hour after baking is complete the bread ’keeps warm’ to prevent it becoming ‘soggy’.

Leaving the bread in the breadmaker after the keep warm period may result in a ‘soggy’ loaf of bread as excess steam (moisture) would not be able to escape. Remove and allow to cool on a wire rack after baking to prevent this.

Question 11

Why did the dough only partially mix? Why didn't it mix completely?

The dough may be too heavy or dry. Also, the kneading blade or baking pan may not be inserted properly. Ingredients may have been added in the wrong order.

Question 12

Why didn't the bread rise?

The yeast could be bad, past it’s sell by date or possibly no yeast was added at all. Also, if the mixing was not complete, rising problems could develop.

Question 13

Why can't the delayed finish be set for more than 13 hours? What is the minimum time a cycle may be delayed?

The maximum length of delay is 13 hours including the total cycle time. For example, Setting 1 (basic small) has a cycle time of 3:20. This start is delayed by a maximum of 9:40. The minimum length of delay for each setting is 10 minutes. The delay clock increases and decreases in increments of 10 minutes.
