Removing Bread

Bread pan and baking chamber will be hot and oven mitts should be used. Remove the bread pan by lifting the handle and turning it counterclockwise to unlock it from the base of the chamber.

Carefully shake the bread upside down until the loaf falls out of the bread pan. Allow to cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before slicing.

TIP: If the kneading paddle comes out in the loaf, remove it with a spatula or small utensil.

When baking is complete, the unit will switch to the Keep Warm setting for up to 1 hour.

Press and hold the START/STOP button for 2 seconds to end this cycle before removing bread pan.

To clean bread pan:

Remove the bread pan by turning it counterclockwise. Wipe inside and outside of bread pan with

a damp cloth. Do not use any abrasive agents, in order to protect the nonstick coating. The bread pan must be dried completely before installation.

NOTE: The bread pan and kneading paddles are dishwasher-safe. The outside of the bread pan and base may discolor. This is normal.

To clean housing and top lid: After use, allow unit to cool. Use a damp cloth to wipe lid, housing, baking chamber, and interior of viewing window. Do not use any abrasive cleaners for cleaning, since this will degrade the high polish of the surface. Never immerse the housing into water for cleaning.

Before the breadmaker is packed for storage, ensure that it has completely cooled down, is clean and dry, and the top lid is closed.
