Taking Care of Your Breadmaker

CAUTION: Do not put the breadmaker in water or in a dishwasher. Do not use benzene, scrubbing brushes or chemical cleaners as these will damage the machine.

Use only a mild, non-abrasive cleanser to clean the breadmaker.

General Cleaning

1 Remove all bread crumbs by wiping them away with a slightly damp cloth.

2 DO NOT bend the heating element which is located on the inside of the breadmaker.

Cleaning the Baking Pan and Kneading Blade

1 Wipe the baking pan and kneading blade with a damp cloth and dry completely.

2 DO NOT wash the pan or parts in the dishwasher. Surely this will damage the finish of the pan and the other parts.

Caring for Your Breadmaker

1 Keep your breadmaker clean at all times.

CAUTION: Do not use metal utensils with the breadmaker. This will damage the non-stick pan and other parts.

2 Don’t worry if the color of the bread pan changes over time. The color change is a result of steam and other moisture and does not affect the machine’s performance.

3 If you have trouble removing the kneading blade, place warm water in the bread pan for 10 – 15 minutes and this will loosen the blade.

Storing Your Breadmaker

1 Make sure the machine is clean and dry before storing.

2 Store the breadmaker with the lid closed.

3 Do not place heavy objects on the lid.

4 Remove the kneading blade and place inside the bread pan.
