Cause
During initial use special protective
oils are burning off the heating
element, or ingredients have
spilled onto the heating elements
in the bottom of the chamber
Breadmaker was kept in the bread
machine too long after completion
of the bread making cycle and
keep warm cycle has elapsed.
Kneading blade is stuck to the
bread pan
Several issues can cause this
to occur. The wrong MENU cycle
was used for the type of bread
you are making, during the baking
and rising cycles the lid was
opened continuously, or left open,
or the ingredients was placed in
the pan in the wrong order, or
wrong volume
Kneading blade is not in the Bread
Pan, the Bread Pan is not properly
placed into the housing, or too
much dough has been added to
the pan
Too much yeast, flour, or water
was added to the batch, or the
temperature is too high
No yeast, or not enough yeast was
added to the pan, yeast is expired,
water temperature is too high

Solution
After first use all protective substances will have burned off the heating
elements and require no maintenance. If ingredients have spilled onto
the heating elements, unplug your Breadmaker and allow it to
completely cook. Wash the heating element off with a damp cloth (no
soap) and allow to dry thoroughly
Do not allow bread to stay in the Breadmaker more than I hour after
completion of the bread making cycle
Allow the Bread Pan to sit on a cooling rack for 10 - 15 minutes
before attempting to remove the bread. After removing the bread
put hot soapy water in the pan and allow to sit for 10 minutes to loosen
the kneading blades from the shaft. Always ensure that your Bread Pan
shaft and kneading blades are completely clean before baking a new
loaf of bread
Select the proper MENU function, Do not open the cover excessively,
keep the cover closed during the bread making process, always use
liquid ingredients first, then dry. Ensure that you are measuring the
ingredients accurately.
Ensure the kneading blade has been properly placed onto the shaft
before adding ingredients, ensure that the Bread Pan is properly locked
into place in the housing, never exceed the recommended amount of
flour in the Bread Pan
Check the recipe measurements, always allow the machine to cool down
at least 15 minutes in between batches
Ensure that the ingredients are measured properly and that the yeast
has not expired
