SOLVING PROBLEMS

If any problems occur during operation, you will find solutions in this section. Fur-
ther information on processing your food is given in section "Tips for Best Results".
Problem
Smoke is escaping from
the ventilation slot.
The bottom crust of the
bread is too hard and/
or too thick.
It is very difficult to get
the bread out of the
bread pan.
Possible Reason
Residues from the pro-
duction process evaporate
from the heating elements.
Some ingredients are
spilled on the heating
elements.
The ingredients in the
ingredients box have
been too wet or too fine-
ly ground. Thus powder
or moisture has been
spilled into the heating
compartment.
The bread has been left
in the bread pan for too
long with the keep warm
function active.
The kneading paddle
sticks to the drive shaft.
The Solution
This is normal. Before first use, let the bread maker run the
Bake program (16) for 10 minutes, while the bread pan is
left empty. See: "Before First Use".
Unplug and leave the appliance cool down. Then clean the
heating compartment and exterior of the bread pan thorough-
ly (see: "Care and Cleaning"). Let dry naturally for approx.
½ hour with the lid open. Strictly avoid spilling of any food
into the heating compartment.
Unplug and leave the appliance cool down. Then clean the
heating compartment and exterior of the bread pan thorough-
ly (see: "Care and Cleaning"). Let dry naturally for approx.
½ hour with the lid open. The ingredients box is intended
for coarsely chopped and dry ingredients. Always fill wet and
finely ground ingredients directly into the bread pan.
After baking an acoustic signal sounds. This is the best
moment to take the bread out of the bread maker.
After taking the bread out, pour hot water into the bread
pan and soak for 10 minutes. Then clean the bread pan and
kneading paddle thoroughly. Before next use, grease the
drive shaft using some cooking oil or marge. This will help to
remove the kneading paddle after baking.
