Problems you may encounter
while making bread

Bread flops over sides of bread pan
• Too much dough.
• Bread has over risen (reduce amount of
yeast slightly).

Help and advice
Sticky bread which slices unevenly
• Always use a serrated bread knife.
• Allow bread to cool longer before slicing.
Bread shape and height varies in each
use
• Ensure accurate measurement of
ingredients.
• Room temperature and length of the timer
cycle not constant.
The kneading blade comes out with
the bread
• This is not a fault as the kneading blade is
detachable. Use a non-metallic utensil to
remove it.
Caution
The kneading blade will be hot.
The bread has a floured corner
• Sometimes flour in the corner of the bread
pan may not have been completely
kneaded into the dough. Scrape it off with
a knife.
If the breadmaker still does not work properly
refer to your authorised service agent.
