IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

To prevent personal injury or property damage, read and follow all instructions

and warnings.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be

followed including the following:

• Read all instructions.

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle or knobs. Always use hot pads or oven

mitts when handling hot bread and bread pan.

• To protect against electric shock do not immerse cord, plugs, or other electric

parts in water or other liquids.

• Close supervision is necessary when this appliance is used by or near children.

• Unplug the appliance from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to

cool before putting on or taking off parts.

• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance

malfunctions or if the appliance is dropped or damaged in any manner. If you

experience any problems with your appliance, unplug it immediately from the

electrical outlet. For service information see warranty page.

• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by West Bend may cause

fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

• Do not use this appliance outdoors.

• Do not let cord hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

• Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance during operation.

• To disconnect, turn control to “OFF,” then remove plug from wall outlet.

• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

• Avoid contacting moving parts.

• Do not let cord contact hot surface, including the stove.

• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce

the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one

way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not

fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

• Set breadpan on hot pad, trivet or other heat protective surface. Do not set hot

breadpan directly on the counter, table or other surface.

• Do not put hand inside oven chamber after bread pan is removed. Heating unit

will still be hot.

• Do not use your breadmaker with a converter or transformer. This will destroy the

electronic controls.

• Do not attempt to repair this appliance yourself.

• A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming

entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

English - 3

• Longer, detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may

be used if care is exercised in their use. While use of an extension cord is not

recommended, if you must use one, the marked electrical rating of the detachable

power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical

rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension

cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord. The cord should be arranged so that

it will not hang over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled by children

or tripped over.

• For household use only.

Breadmaker. The control panel on your

breadmaker was designed to be very easy to use. Please review the following

features to better understand the control panel.

CONTROL PANEL and FUNCTIONS

LCD DISPLAY: The display indicates when the appliance is ready for use. When the

appliance is first plugged in, there will be an audible beep and the default program is

displayed. “1 3:05” appears on the display. The “1” specifies which program is selected

(1-12 programs) and the “3:05” is the length of the program in hour: minutes. The

position of the arrow at the top of the display indicates the weight of the loaf selected (3,

2.5 or 2 lb) with 2.5 lb as the default. The position of the arrow at the bottom of the

display indicates the degree of browning that is selected (light, medium, or dark) with

medium as the default. As the program proceeds, the digits of the time displayed will

decrease progressively, indicating remaining time. During operation, the status of the

program is indicated in the display with a mark at the active program mode.

“START/STOP” Button: The “START/STOP” button is used to start, pause, or cancel a

program. A short alert is heard with each press of the “START/STOP” button. Press this

button when the Breadmaker is idle to start the program. When the breadmaker is active,

press the button once to pause the program, or press and hold to cancel the program. If

you do cancel the program, the breadmaker will return to its default settings for the

chosen menu selection. All customized settings will be lost if the program is cancelled.

You must set all desired program settings before starting the program. The program

cannot be changed after the cycle has begun, unless you cancel the cycle.

“COLOR” Button: “COLOR” cycles to select the crust darkness: LIGHT, MEDIUM,

and DARK. The default color is MEDIUM.

“TIMER” Buttons: The “+” and “-” buttons are used to set a delayed program end

time. All settings, except (10) “Cake,” can be used with the delay timer. The delay

hours and minutes will be added to the preprogrammed times for the specific

program. The time indicated in the display is the time until the end of the cycle. The

maximum time delay is 13 hours per program. Note: When delay start time has been

selected, press “START/STOP” button. As time counts down, the “ : ” will blink to

indicate that it is working. Setting (10) Cake cannot be used with a delayed start.

DELAY START: The maximum time delay is 13 hours per program.

Example: It is 8:30 p.m. and you would like the bread ready for the next morning at

7:00 a.m. Determine the time difference, 7:00 a.m. is 10 hours and 30 minutes

ahead of 8:30 p.m. Press the “+” or “-” buttons until 10:30 appears in the display.

NEVER use the time delay function when using perishable ingredients such as

milk, eggs, fruit, yogurt, etc.!

“LOAF / PROCESS” Button: The “LOAF” button adjusts the various programs for

the selected loaf size; 3 lb, 2.5 lb, or 2 lb. This button is only applicable for the

following programs: “Basic,” “French,” “Whole wheat,” “Sweet,” “Super rapid,”

“Sandwich,” “Gluten free,” and “Cake.”

“MENU” Button: Use the “MENU” button to select the desired program. In general,

use the following suggested programs for the following specialties.

MENU SELECTIONS

Menu 1: “Basic” for white, rye, potato, egg, garlic and similar breads. The “Basic”

setting can be used for almost any bread recipe containing mostly bread flour.

Menu 2: “French” for the preparation of particularly light white and Italian breads.

This is not suitable for baking recipes requiring butter, margarine, or milk.

Menu 3: “Whole Wheat” for breads containing 50% or more whole wheat, cracked

wheat, buttermilk wheat and like breads.

Menu 4: “Sweet” for preparing breads with raisins, cinnamon, apricots and similar

ingredients.

Menu 5: “Super Rapid” for preparing loaves in under 2 hours.

Menu 6: “Sandwich” for baking lightly textured bread with a thinner crust, perfect for

at-home sandwiches.

Menu 7: “Gluten Free” for Gluten free recipes. Additional bake time on setting 12

may be necessary when baking some gluten free breads. Always check gluten free

bread’s internal temperature with a thermometer to check doneness.

Menu 8: “Mix” for the preparation of doughs without yeast with no baking.

Menu 9: “Dough” for the preparation of dough with no baking.

Menu 10: “Cake” mix and bake; designed for use with boxed cake mixes and quick

breads. Additional bake time on setting (12) Bake may be necessary when baking

some cakes or quick breads.

Menu 11: “Custom” this program is for the baker who is very familiar with baking in

a bread machine. This program allows for complete personalization of making bread.

The time of each cycle; knead, rise, bake and keep warm, can be customized. The

settable time range of each program as following:

KNEAD1

3-14min

RISE1

20-60 min

KNEAD2

0-24 min

RISE2

1-60 min

RISE3

0-120 min

BAKE

0-80 min

WARM

0-120 min

Please see “Special Instructions for “CUSTOM”” section for detailed instructions

for using the “CUSTOM” function.

Menu 12: “Bake” for baking and browning of breads, cakes, or even casseroles. This

setting is perfect for additional baking of breads that are too light or have not baked

completely through. Bake time can be set in 10-minute increments, up to 1 hour.

Press “LOAF / PROCESS,” then press the “+” or “-“ buttons to increase or decrease

bake time, then “START/STOP” to begin the cycle. In this program, there are no

English - 6

ALERTS, SOUNDS and OTHER GENERAL FUNCTIONS

Alert: The alert sounds:

• At the pressing of any button that allows function selection. If the button doesn’t

beep, that function choice is not available.

• An alert of ten beeps may sound during the second kneading cycle of some

settings to signal that the cereals, fruits, nuts or other ingredients can be added.

• When the end of the program is reached.

• During the warming phase at the end of the baking procedure the alert sounds

several times.

Power Interruption: If there is a brief power interruption of less than ten minutes,

the program position is stored in the memory and the machine will resume when the

power is restored.

Over-temp Error: If the display shows “H:HH” after the program has been started, it

means that the temperature inside of bread pan is too high. You should stop the

program and unplug the power cord immediately. Open the lid and let the machine

cool down completely before using again.

• A small amount of smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the release

of manufacturing oils - this is normal.

• Some minor expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and cooling

- this is normal.

BASIC STEPS IN MAKING BREAD

Always clean your new appliance thoroughly before using. Refer to “Cleaning

Your Breadmaker” section.

1. Position the knead blades on to the shafts in the bottom of the bread pan,

matching the hub shapes with the shaft shapes. You may need to turn the blades

slightly for the knead blades to drop in place. Make sure the knead blades are

pushed down on the shaft all the way. The knead blade is all the way down when

the top of the shaft is flush with the top of the knead blade.

2. Add ingredients to the bread pan in the order listed in the recipe; liquids first, then

the butter or margarine, next the dry ingredients and finally the yeast. For best

results level the dry ingredients before adding the yeast. Note: Ingredients and

measuring are the key to successful breadmaking. We highly recommend reading

the “Know Your Ingredients and Other Helpful Hints” section of this manual before

making bread.

3. Insert the bread pan; place the bread pan in the center of the baking chamber.

Press gently on the bread pan to lock the pan into place. To remove the bread pan,

pull with medium force on the bread pan carrying handle. CAUTION: The handle is

hot after baking. Use oven mitts or hot pads when removing a hot bread pan.

4. Close the lid. Plug the breadmaker cord into a 120 volt, AC electrical outlet ONLY.

5. Use the “MENU” button to select the desired program menu. (see pg. 5)

6. Use the “LOAF / PROCESS” button to select the desired loaf size.

7. Use the “COLOR” button to select the desired crust darkness.

8. If desired, use the TIMER “+” and “-” buttons to set the elapsed time for when the

program is to be completed (see pg. 4).

9. Press the “START/STOP” button to begin the program. After the breadmaker has

been turned on, the programmed setting cannot be changed without canceling

the program. To change the setting, hold the “START/STOP” button down until

the alert sounds; program the control as desired and turn back on.

10. When the bread is done, an alert will sound. Turn the breadmaker off by holding

the “START/STOP” button down until the alert sounds. Unplug the cord from the

electrical outlet. If the breadmaker is not turned off after the cycle is complete, the

English - 7

breadmaker will automatically go into a one hour “Keep Warm” period. If the

machine is not turned off after the end of the “Keep Warm” period, the machine

will turn itself off.

11. Remove the bread pan. CAUTION: The handle is hot after baking. Use oven

mitts or hot pads when removing a hot bread pan.

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 blades will normally stay in the bread

pan when the bread is removed, but may on occasion slide out in the bread. If a

knead blade is inside the loaf, remove with the included hook before slicing.

CAUTION: The knead blade is very hot, remove with care. If making another loaf

of bread right away, be sure the machine is turned off, unplugged, and allowed to

cool for 15 to 20 minutes with the lid open.

Special Instructions for “CUSTOM”: The “CUSTOM” setting is perfect for the user

who is familiar with the intricacies of making bread at home and wants to customize

their own settings.

1. Press the “LOAF / PROCESS” button once and “KNEAD1” will appear on the

display; then press the the TIMER “+” and “-” buttons to adjust the minutes.

Press “LOAF / PROCESS” again to confirm the time for the first kneading cycle.

Press “LOAF / PROCESS” again to advance to the next step. Note: To advance

the time more rapidly, press and hold the TIMER “+” and “-” buttons.

2. “RISE1” will now show on the display. Press the the TIMER “+” and “-” buttons

to adjust the minutes. Once the desired time has been set, press “LOAF /

PROCESS” again to advance.

3. Continue until you have customized all settings. Press “START/STOP” to exit

programming, then press again to begin the cycle.

Note: Your breadmaker’s memory can remember your customized homemade

settings unless power is lost for more than 5 minutes. When “CUSTOM” is first

selected, the default setting is the same as BASIC.

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 breadmaker at high altitudes.

CLEANING YOUR BREADMAKER

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

completely before cleaning.

2. After the bread is removed from the bread pan, and the pan has cooled, fill it 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 blades can be lifted off of the shafts.

You may need to twist the knead blades slightly to loosen. If the knead blades

are difficult to remove after soaking, secure the cross bar on the underside of the

bread pan while twisting the knead blades to loosen. Wash the inside of the

bread pan and knead blades 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 blades, as damage to the coating

or finish can occur. Replace the knead blades 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 blade can occur. Wipe the inside of

the oven chamber and the outside surfaces of the breadmaker with a damp cloth

English - 8

if necessary. Never dip the appliance in water or fill the baking compartment with

water! The lid cannot be removed for cleaning.

NOTE: The coating on the inside of bread pan may change color over time; this is

normal and does not affect the bread.

KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS AND OTHER HELPFUL HINTS

Although bread making seems very basic, it is a science and the proportions of

ingredients are critical. The most important step in using your bread maker is to

measure the ingredients precisely and accurately. Read the following information to

better understand the importance each ingredient plays in the bread making process.

Always make sure the ingredients are fresh.

• Measure the liquid ingredients in see-through measuring cups with

accurate markings. Place the cup on a flat surface and measure at

“Eye Level,” not at an angle. All measurements must be accurate.

Always use liquids between 80-90°F (27-32°C) to assure optimal

yeast activity.

• Spoon the dry ingredients into the appropriate measuring cups or

spoons, and then level off with table knife. All ingredients measured in

measuring spoons and cups must be level, not rounded or heaping.

• Never scoop measuring cups into dry ingredients. This will

compress the ingredients into the cup and cause the dough to be

dry which will result in a short loaf of bread.

BREAD FLOUR should be used in your bread maker. It contains more gluten-

forming proteins than all-purpose flour and will provide well-formed loaves with good

structure. Several different brands of bread flour are available. Do not use self-

rising or cake flour in your bread maker.

WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR can be used in your bread maker using the “Whole wheat”

bread setting. Whole wheat flour contains the entire wheat kernel, including the bran

and germ. Therefore, breads made with 100 percent or a high percentage of whole

wheat flour will be lower in height and heavier in texture than bread made with bread

flour. The “Whole wheat” setting on your bread maker is programmed to better

develop the structure of wheat breads for optimum results.

RYE FLOUR can be used in combination with bread flour in the preparation of rye or

pumpernickel bread. However, it cannot be used alone as it does not contain enough

protein to develop adequate gluten for structure.

SUGAR AND OTHER SWEETENERS provide food for the yeast, add height and

flavor to the bread and give the crust a golden color. Types of sweeteners that can

be used include sugar, brown sugar, honey, molasses, maple syrup, corn syrup and

fruits, dried or fresh. Do not use artificial sweeteners as a substitute for sugars and

other natural sweeteners; artificial sweeteners turn bitter when subjected to baking

temperatures, the yeast will not react properly, and poor results will be attained.

When measuring sticky sweeteners, such as honey, coat the measuring spoon with

vegetable oil before measuring the sweetener. This will allow the sweetener to slide

off the spoon without sticking.

MILK enhances flavor and increases the nutritional value of bread. Any type of milk;

dry, whole, 2%, 1%, skim, buttermilk or canned evaporated milk can be used in making

bread. Refrigerated milk may be warmed to 80-90°F (27-32°C) however do not

overheat (above 100°F, 38°C) as this could affect the yeast activity. Do not use regular

milk when using the “Delay Start” function. Use dry milk and water as a substitute.

English - 9

WATER used in combination with dry milk can be substituted for regular milk and

must be used when using the “Delay Start” function as regular milk can spoil when

left at room temperature for several hours. Use lukewarm water, about 80-90°F (27-

32°C). Do not use water above 100°F (38°C) as this could affect the yeast.

BUTTER, MARGARINE, SHORTENING and OILS serve several purposes in bread

making as they tenderize the bread, add flavor and richness. Butter and margarine

are interchangeable in recipes. Butter and margarine can be used right from the

refrigerator. Cut cold butter or margarine into smaller pieces for faster blending

during the knead cycle. Low-fat or fat-free bread can be made by substituting equal

amounts of unsweetened applesauce or plain yogurt for the amount of fat

recommended in the recipe. Using less fat will affect the height, tenderness and

texture of the bread, which is normal.

EGGS add color, richness and leavening to bread. Use only large eggs. No

premixing is needed. Egg substitutes can be used in place of fresh eggs. One egg

equals ¼ cup of egg substitute. To reduce cholesterol, you can substitute two (2)

egg whites for a large egg in the recipes without affecting the end result. Watch the

dough during the knead cycle as some minor adjustment may be needed to get the

dough to the right consistency.

SALT has several functions in making bread. It controls yeast growth while

strengthening the gluten structure to make the dough more elastic and also adds

flavor. Use ordinary table salt in your bread maker. Using too little or eliminating the

salt will cause the dough to over rise. Using too much can prevent the dough from

rising as high as it should. “Light” salt can be used as a substitute for ordinary table

salt, providing it contains both potassium chloride and sodium. Use the same amount

as recommended for table salt. When adding salt to the bread pan, add to one

corner to keep it away from the yeast, especially when using time delay as the salt

can affect the yeast activity.

YEAST is a living organism which, through fermentation, feeds on carbohydrates in

flour and sugar to produce carbon dioxide gas that makes the bread rise. Active dry,

fast rising or bread machine yeast can be used in your bread maker. Use only the

amount stated in the recipes. Using a little more can cause the dough to over rise

and bake into the top of the bread maker. Fast rising yeast and bread machine yeast

are virtually the same and interchangeable with one another. Do not use

compressed yeast as poor results may be obtained. A ¼-ounce envelope of yeast

contains 2¼ teaspoons. Yeast can also be purchased in bulk so you can measure

the exact amount needed. Once opened, keep refrigerated. Always make sure yeast

is fresh and has not passed the “Use By” date.

SPECIAL NOTE ON FLOUR: All flours are affected by growing conditions, milling,

storage, humidity, etc. While not visibly different, you may need to make some minor

adjustments when using different brands of flour as well as compensating for the

humidity in your area. Always store bread flour in an airtight container. Store whole

grain flours, whole wheat and rye, in a refrigerator to prevent them from becoming

rancid. Measure the amount of flour as directed in each recipe, but make any

adjustments after the first 3 - 4 minutes of continuous kneading.

You may find you get better bread by weighing your flour rather than measuring in

measuring cups. Most flours average 1 cup = 135 grams.

CHECKING THE DOUGH: Making changes to the dough is easy. This can be done

during the knead cycle only. Do not turn off the breadmaker to adjust dough.

• Touch the dough. If it feels a little sticky and there is a slight smear of dough

under the knead blade, no adjustment is necessary.

English - 10

• If the dough is very sticky, clinging to the sides of the pan, and is more like a

batter than a dough, add one tablespoon of flour. Allow the flour to be mixed

completely into the dough before making any more adjustments. To prevent heat

from escaping, open the lid of the bread maker only to add flour.

• If the dough is dry and the bread maker appears to be laboring, add one

teaspoon of lukewarm water. Allow water to be completely mixed into the dough

before making any additional adjustments and keep lid closed to keep heat in the

appliance.

Dough is “just right” when it is smooth in appearance, soft to the touch, leaves a slight

residue on your finger, and the bottom of the bread pan is clean of dough residue.

SPECIAL NOTE ON CINNAMON AND GARLIC: Adding too much cinnamon or garlic

can affect the texture and size of the loaf obtained. Cinnamon can break down the

structure of the dough, affecting height and texture. Too much garlic can inhibit the

yeast activity. Use only the amount of cinnamon and garlic recommended in the recipe.

CREATING ARTISAN BREAD CRUSTS: Just before the bread baking cycle begins,

open the lid of the bread maker and carefully brush the top surface of the dough with a

lightly beaten egg white that has been mixed with 1 teaspoon of water. If desired, slash

the top of the dough ¼ to ½ inch deep with a sharp knife into desired design. Leave

plain or sprinkle with seeds, herbs, grated parmesan or romano cheeses, or other

desired toppings. Press toppings gently into the dough to ensure it adheres and will not

fall off. Close the lid and allow bread to bake.

For best results, use only the beaten egg white with water to treat the crust before the

bake cycle begins. This mixture will ensure that toppings will stick and not fall off when

bread is removed from the pan.

Do not use vegetable oil cooking sprays to treat crusts, as the cooking sprays can be

flammable when exposed to the bread maker’s heating unit.

Crust can also be treated after bread is done baking. Remove bread from the bread

pan and place on a rack. Lightly brush the top of the loaf with melted butter, margarine,

olive oil, or vegetable oil and sprinkle desired topping on to the bread’s top.

GLUTEN FREE BREAD: Always use room-temperature ingredients. Do not use

eggs directly from the refrigerator. Instead, place them in a bowl of warm water until

they reach room temperature. Gluten free bread dough will have more of a muffin

batter texture than a typical bread dough texture. This is normal. You may need to

assist mixing of the ingredients in your bread pan with a rubber spatula. If you desire

a lighter loaf of gluten free bread, try beer bread or bread made with club soda or

ginger ale.

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 breadmaker at high altitudes.

CHECK YOUR TEMPS: It is a good idea at the end of a bread cycle to check the

internal temperature of your bread with a thermometer before removing the bread

from the pan. Most breads are done when they reach 190°F-200°F. Gluten-free

breads should be between 205°F-210°F. If you have not reached these

temperatures, it is likely that your bread is underbaked. Bake for additional time on

setting (12) Bake.

CYCLE TIME CHART: Please refer to the last page of this manual for a complete

breakdown of each cycle.

English - 11

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Review the following Problems, Possible Causes and Solutions below.

GLUTEN FREE TROUBLESHOOTING

Gluten free breadmaking can be tricky. To prevent baking a dense brick of bread

rather than a fluffy loaf, use these helpful tips.

• Use room-temperature ingredients, including eggs.

• Reverse the normal order of adding ingredients. Start with the yeast and dry

ingredients, add half the wet ingredients, and then start the cycle. Allow the ingredients

to mix for several minutes and gradually add the remaining wet ingredients.

• Observe the dough during the knead cycle. If the breadmaker has difficulty mixing

ingredients thoroughly, use a spatula to scrape around the pan to assist.

• Use an instant read thermometer to take the temperature of your bread before you

remove it from the bread pan. If internal temperature has not reached 205-210°F,

your loaf will be under done. Bake on the bake cycle for additional time, until

internal temperature is between 205-210°F.

LOAF SIZE & SHAPE

Short loaves

• Wheat breads will be shorter than white breads due to less gluten forming protein

in whole-wheat flour.

• Not enough liquid - Increase liquid by 1-2 teaspoons.

• Sugar omitted or not enough added - Assemble ingredients as listed in recipe.

• Wrong type of flour used - Do not use all-purpose flour.

• Not enough yeast used or too old - Measure amount recommended and check

freshness date on package.

• Wrong type of yeast used - Use fast rising or bread machine yeast. Do not use

compressed yeast.

Flat loaves, no rising

• Yeast omitted - Assemble ingredients as listed in recipe.

• Yeast too old - Check expiration date.

• Liquid too hot - Use lukewarm liquids 80-90°F (27-32°C).

• Too much salt added - Use amount recommended in recipe.

• Sugar or other sweetener omitted - Assemble ingredients as listed in recipe.

Top and sides cave in

• Too much liquid – Reduce liquid by 1-2 teaspoons.

• Too much yeast – Use recommended amount.

Gnarly or knotted top, not smooth

• Not enough liquid – Increase liquid by 1-2 teaspoons.

• Too much flour – Measure flour accurately, leveling off measuring cup.

Loaves uneven, shorter on one end

• Dough too dry preventing even rise in bread pan – Increase liquid by 1-2

teaspoons.

Collapsed while baking

• May be caused from baking in high altitude – Make adjustment for high altitude

baking by reducing yeast by ¼ teaspoon and reducing liquid by 1-2 teaspoons.

English - 12

BREAD TEXTURE

Heavy, dense texture

• Too much flour – Measure accurately, leveling off measuring cup.

• Not enough yeast – Add recommended amount of yeast.

• Not enough sugar – Add recommended amount of sugar.

Open, coarse, or holey texture

• Salt omitted – Assemble ingredients as listed in recipe.

• Too much yeast – Add recommended amount of yeast.

• Too much liquid – Reduce liquid by 1-2 teaspoons.

Bread doesn’t slice well, very sticky

• Sliced while too hot – Allow bread to cool on rack at least 15-20 minutes before

slicing to release steam.

• Not using proper knife – Use a good bread knife or electric knife.

Center of loaf raw, not baked through

• Too much liquid – Reduce liquid by 1-2 teaspoons.

• Power outage during operation – If the power goes out during operation for longer

than 5 minutes, the breadmaker will remain off when the power is restored.

Remove the unbaked loaf from the bread pan and start over with fresh ingredients.

• Forgot to put knead blade in bread pan – Always make sure the knead blade is on

the shaft in bottom of the bread pan before adding ingredients.

CRUST and COLOR THICKNESS

Dark crust color/too thick

• Too much sugar – Reduce sugar by half.

Loaf of bread is burned

• Breadmaker is malfunctioning – See Warranty page for service information.

Crust too light

• Not enough sugar or fat – Increase sugar or fat by half the amount recommended.

BREAD PAN PROBLEMS

Knead blade cannot be removed

• Add warm water to the bread pan and allow the knead blade to soak before trying

to remove. Follow the cleaning instructions. You may need to twist the knead

blade slightly after soaking to loosen. Do not immerse the bread pan in water.

Bread sticks to bread pan/difficult to shake out

• Can happen over prolonged use – Wipe the inside of the bread pan, from the ribs

down with vegetable oil or solid shortening. Or add 1 tsp. vegetable oil to the

liquid in the bread pan before adding dry ingredients. Do not use vegetable spray

as sticking can worsen. Or, let bread sit in bread pan for 10 minutes before

shaking out. Replacement bread pans may be ordered. See Warranty section.

MACHINE MECHANICS

Ingredients not mixed

• Did not start machine – After programming the control panel, press the

“START/STOP” button to turn on.

• Forgot to put knead blade in bread pan – Always make sure the knead blade is on

the shaft in the bottom of the bread pan before adding ingredients.

Burning odor noted during operation

• Ingredients spilled inside oven – Be careful not to spill ingredients when adding to

the bread pan as they will burn on the heating unit and cause smoke.

• Bread pan leaks – Replacement bread pan may be ordered. See Warranty

section.

• Exceeding capacity of bread pan – Do not use more ingredients than

recommended in recipe and always measure accurately.

Machine unplugged by mistake or power lost during use for longer than 5

minutes. How can I save the bread?

• If machine is in knead cycle, reprogram to the same bread setting and turn the

machine back on.

• If machine is in rise or bake cycle, preheat conventional oven to 350°F (177°C).

Carefully remove the bread pan from the machine and bake on rack in center of

oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Alert sounds, display shows “H:HH” and machine cannot be turned on.

• Breadmaker too hot to make consecutive loaves – Unplug the cord from the outlet

and allow to cool with the bread pan removed and lid open for 15-20 minutes. Plug

the cord back in the outlet, add bread pan and start machine. If you are making

consecutive loaves of bread, this error message is not uncommon and does not

indicate defect in the bread maker.

Alert sounds, display shows “E:E0” and machine cannot be turned on.

• Breadmaker is malfunctioning – See Warranty section for service information.

RECIPES

Pre-packaged bread mixes can be used in your breadmaker. Simply follow the

instructions given for the specific bread mix. Unless otherwise stated for the bread

mix, use the 2 lb. setting for loaf size. Follow standard practices; liquid ingredients

into the bread pan first, then dry ingredients with the yeast, if required, going in last.

Following are some made-from-scratch bread recipes to get you started. A

supplemental recipe book is also available at www.westbend.com, in our care and

use manuals section under support.

For All Settings: Add liquids to the bread pan first, then dry ingredients. Level the

dry ingredients; quarter the butter or margarine and add to the corners. Make an

impression in the center of the dry ingredients and add the yeast. Close the lid,

select “Menu,” choose setting desired, select “Color,” then select “Loaf” to size

indicated in recipe. Because of the many variables in bread making, we suggest

checking the internal temperature of your bread with a thermometer before removing

the bread from the pan at the end of the bread cycle. Most breads are done when

they reach 190°F-200°F. Gluten-free breads should be between 205°F-210°F. If you

have not reached these temperatures, it is likely that your bread is underbaked. Bake

for additional time on setting (12) Bake.

room temperature ingredients, and if you notice issues with your loaves, reverse the

normal order of adding ingredients. Start with the yeast and dry ingredients, add half the

wet ingredients, and then start the cycle. Allow the ingredients to mix for several minutes

and gradually add the remaining wet ingredients.
