12.  Invert the bread pan and shake gently until the loaf falls out.  Place the bread on 

a rack to cool 15 to 20 minutes.  The knead bar will normally stay in the bread 
pan when the bread is removed, but may on occasion slide out in the bread.  If 
the knead bar is inside the loaf, remove before slicing.  If making another loaf of 
bread right away, be sure the machine is turned off and allowed to cool 15 to 20 
minutes with the cover open.  

 
High Altitude Adjustment

: Reduced air pressure at high altitudes causes yeast 

gases to expand more rapidly and the dough to rise more quickly.  The dough can 
rise so much that when it begins to bake, it will collapse due to overstretching of the 
gluten structure.  To slow the rising of the dough, reduce the amount of yeast by ¼ 
teaspoon at a time until you find the right amount.  You can also reduce the amount 
of liquid by a teaspoon or two.  Some experimentation will be needed when using 
your bread maker at high altitudes.  
 

CLEANING YOUR BREADMAKER 

1.  Unplug the cord from the electrical outlet and allow the appliance to cool 

completely before cleaning.  

2.  Immediately after the bread is removed from the bread pan, fill the bread pan 

half full with warm water and a small amount of dish soap.  Allow the bread pan 
to soak for 5 to 20 minutes or until the knead bar can be lifted off of the shaft.  
You may need to twist the knead bar slightly to loosen.  The knead bar may 
need to soak in water before it can be removed.  If the knead bar is difficult to 
remove after soaking, secure the cross bar on the underside of the bread pan 
while twisting the knead bar to loosen.  Wash the inside of the bread pan and 
knead bar with a soft cloth, rinse and dry.  Use a mild detergent.  Never use 
chemical cleaning agents, oven cleaners, abrasive scouring pads, or cleansers 
on the bread pan or knead bar as damage to the coating or finish can occur.  
Replace the knead bar on the shaft.  

3.  Never immerse the bread pan in water or wash in an automatic 

dishwasher as damage to the bearing that turns the knead bar 
can occur.  Wipe the inside of the oven chamber and the outside 
surfaces of the bread maker with a damp cloth if necessary.  
Never dip the appliance in water or fill the baking compartment with water!  For 
easy cleaning, the lid can be removed by positioning it vertically and pulling it 
out.  

 

NOTE: 

The coating on the inside of bread pan may change color over time, this is 

normal and does not affect the bread.
