Product Information

greatly affect the results of
baked yeast breads. Keep the bread maker away from direct sunlight.
If the humidity is especially high, add an additional teaspoon per
cup of flour used in the recipe.
Why is my bread sunken/uneven on the top?| Humidity and room temperature can greatly affect the results of
baked yeast breads. Keep the bread maker away from direct sunlight.
If the humidity is especially high, add an additional teaspoon per
cup of flour used in the recipe.
Why does my yeast bread have an underbaked/gummy texture?| The dough was too wet, or possibly does not have enough white
flour for gluten development. Add a bit more flour, 1 tablespoon
per cup, or reduce the amount of whole-wheat/grain flours in the
recipe and substitute white flour.
Why does the interior of my yeast bread have excessive
holes?| Double-check the recipe and, if necessary, make changes by
either adding a small amount of flour or reducing the yeast
slightly.
Why is my yeast bread heavy and dense?| This could be one of a few different issues. The mixture may be
too dry as a result of not enough liquid or because lower fat
substitutes were used. Another reason may be not using enough
yeast. If this is occurring in whole-wheat/grain bread, you may
need to use vital wheat gluten to help with the structure of the
finished bread.
Why are the corners/edges of the bread full of extra flour/not
evenly mixed?| Sometimes ingredients will stick to the corners of the pan,
most commonly in the Cake or Gluten Free programs (both have more
batter-like consistencies than a dough). Check the bread about 10
minutes into the kneading/mixing time and pause to scrape down if
necessary. Lightly coating the bread pan with flavorless
vegetable oil will help to prevent this from happening as
well.
How do I get the kneading paddle out of the loaf?| There are two options. In most programs, you can remove the
paddle after you hear the Remove Paddle signal (prior to the final
rise). If this is not an option, or you were not present to remove
it, wait until the bread is cooled and then, carefully take out the
paddle (use caution because it may be hot).
Why is the unit smoking/producing a burning smell?| Most likely this is from ingredients that fell into the bottom
of the bread machine or onto the heating element. If it is
excessive, unplug the unit, and once cool, clean the interior of the
unit. Plug the unit back in and resume the program (the program
will be stored in memory for a maximum of 15 minutes). In most
cases, the smoke/odor will be minimal and it will dissipate.

error codes.
Why did my mix-ins not get dispensed?| Please refer to your Instruction Booklet for information on
mix-in dispensing.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Why did my dough/ bread not rise well?

| There are a number of factors that could result in a short rise. Be sure that the yeast is fresh and that all ingredients are at room temperature (75ºF to 90°F).

If the liquids are too warm or too cold, they will not activate the yeast properly. Be sure the ingredients are put into the baking pan in the correct order. The salt should be as far away from the yeast as possible. Note that not all breads rise as much as others. Whole-wheat or whole-grain breads tend to be shorter than white breads. Also, breads with more sugar or sweeteners, and ones that are enriched with eggs, will be taller than regular white breads.

Why is my bread sunken/uneven on the top?| Humidity and room temperature can greatly affect the results of baked yeast breads. Keep the bread maker away from direct sunlight. If the humidity is especially high, add an additional teaspoon per cup of flour used in the recipe.
Why does my yeast bread have an underbaked/gummy texture?| The dough was too wet, or possibly does not have enough white flour

for gluten development. Add a bit more flour, 1 tablespoon per cup, or reduce the amount of whole-wheat/grain flours in the recipe and substitute white flour.

Why does the interior of my yeast bread have excessive holes?| This happens if either the bread is too wet or if too much yeast was used. Double-check the recipe and, if necessary, make changes by either adding a small amount of flour or reducing the yeast slightly.

Why is my yeast bread heavy and dense?

| This could be one of a few different issues. The mixture may be too dry as a result of not enough liquid or because lower fat substitutes were used. Another reason may be not using enough yeast. If this is occurring in whole- wheat/grain bread, you may need to use vital wheat gluten to help with the structure of the finished bread.

Plug the unit back in and resume the program (the program will be stored in memory for a maximum of 15

minutes). In most cases, the smoke/odor will be minimal and it will dissipate.

What do the error codes mean?

| The display shows “HHH” (accompanied by beeps): The unit’s internal temperature is too high. This usually occurs when trying to make two successive loaves. Open the lid and allow the unit to cool for 10–20 minutes. The display shows “LLL” (accompanied by beeps): The unit’s internal temperature is too low to bake bread. Stop the beeps by pressing the START/STOP button.

The display shows ”EE0, EE1, or “EE2” (accompanied by beeps): Unplug the unit and contact your nearby service center.

Why did my mix-ins not get dispensed?| The automatic mix-ins dispenser is not programmed for every Menu option. (Refer to pages 11–13 of the Instruction Booklet for more information on which programs include mix-ins.
