CLEANING YOUR BREADMAKER 
1.  Unplug cord from electrical outlet and allow to cool completely before cleaning. 
2.  After bread is removed from pan, fill pan half full with warm water and a small 
amount of dish soap.  Set pan in an empty sink or on hot pad and allow pan to 
soak for 5 to 10 minutes or until knead bar can be lifted off shaft.  You may need 
to twist bar slightly to loosen.  The knead bar must soak in water before it can be 
removed.  If knead bar is difficult to remove after soaking, secure cross bar on 
underside of pan while twisting knead bar to loosen.  Wash inside of pan and 
knead bar with a soft cloth, rinse and dry.  Replace knead bar on shaft. 
Do not immerse bread pan in water or wash in automatic 
dishwasher as damage to bearing that turns the knead bar 
can occur. 
Be sure shaft in bottom of pan is kept clean to ensure knead 
bar fits properly.  Do not use any type of utensil or tool to clean 
the gasket around the shaft, as damage will occur and result in leakage. 
Do not use any abrasive scouring pads or cleansers on bread pan or knead bar 
as damage to coating or finish can occur.  The coating on the inside of bread 
pan may change color over time, which is normal and does not affect the bread. 
3.  Wipe inside of oven chamber and outside surfaces of bread maker with a damp 
cloth if necessary.
