Additional important instructions
– Always use an oven-cloth or suitable gloves when touching the unit after use, or when handling
freshly baked bread.
– In case of a power failure of less than 5 minutes during operation, the baking process
automatically continues at the point of interruption.
– During the kneading process, water vapour may condense on the viewing window. However, this
condensation will disappear during the baking phase.
– To ensure evenly baked bread, do not open the lid during the baking process.
– After use, allow sufficient time for the bread-maker and the baking-tin to cool down before
cleaning them thoroughly.
– The baking-tin and the kneading hook have a non-stick coating. In order to prevent damage, do
not use any metallic, hard, sharp or pointed objects on the coating.
– Caution: Operating the bread-maker empty could result in damage to the unit
the empty baking-tin.
Caution
– In the event of any smoke coming from the baking compartment, be sure to keep the door firmly
closed, but immediately remove the plug from the wall socket. Do not, under any circumstances,
try to smother or extinguish smouldering dough with water. Dough may catch fire if it is allowed
to rise over the edge of the baking-tin and touch the heating element. It is therefore important to
follow the quantity limits given in the recipes.
– Always make sure that the unit is placed well out of children's reach, especially while it is
operating.
– Do not place the unit on soft or inflammable surfaces (e.g. carpets). Always ensure that it is
placed on a firm, level work surface. Always position the unit in such a way that it cannot fall
over.
– Do not touch the steam vents at the rear of the lid, nor the viewing window in the lid: these parts
heat up during operation.
– Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is disconnected from the power supply and has cooled
down completely.
