– Troubleshooting:

BREAD ROSE TOO HIGH OR PUSHED LID UP
Cause: Ingredients not measured properly (too much yeast, flour), Forgot to add salt.
Solutions: Measure all ingredients accurately and make sure sugar and salt have been added. Try decreasing yeast by 1/4 teaspoon.
Cause: Kneading paddle not in bread pan.
Solution: Check installation of kneading paddle.

BREAD DID NOT RISE; LOAF SHORT
Cause: Breads with wheat flour will be shorter than white breads as they have less gluton forming protein.
Solution: Add 1 tsp of Vital Wheat Gluten (added in our recipes)
Cause: Inaccuracy measurement of ingredients
Solution: Measure all ingredients accurately
Cause: Lifted lid during programs
Solution: Keep lid closed
Cause: Wrong type of yeast
Solution: Use fast rising or bread machine yeast.
Cause: Not enough yeast or too old
Solution: Measure accurately and check freshness date on package.
Cause: Not enough liquid
Solution: Increase liquid (room temperature) by 1-2 tbs.
Cause: Used all purpose flour
Solution: Use Bread flour

BREAD HAS A CRATER IN THE TOP OF THE LOAF ONCE BAKED.
Cause: Dough has risen too fast.
Solution: Do not open lid during baking.
Cause: Too much yeast or water.
Solution: Reduce liquid by 1-2 tsp. Use correct amount of Yeast.

UNEVEN TOP
Not enough liquid-increase by 1-2 tsp
Too much flour-measure correctly and level off

ODOR OR BURNING SMELL
Cause: Flour or other ingredients have spilled into the baking chamber.
Solution: Stop the bread maker and allow cooling completely. Wipe excess flour etc., from the baking chamber with a paper
towel.

INGREDIENTS ARE NOT BLENDING CAN HEAR MOTOR BURNING
Cause: Bread pan or kneading paddle may not be installed properly.
Solution: Make sure kneading paddle is fully on the shaft .
Cause: Too many ingredients.
Solution: Measure ingredients accurately.

“HHH” DISPLAYS WHEN START/STOP BUTTON IS PRESSED.
Cause: Internal temperature of bread maker is too high.
Solution: Allow unit to cool down in between programs. Unplug unit, open lid, and remove bread pan. Allow to cool 15-30 minutes before beginning new programs.

WINDOW IS CLOUDY OR COVERED WITH CONDENSATION
May occur during mixing or rising programs. Condensation usually disappears during baking programs. Clean window well in between uses.

KNEADING PADDLE COMES OUT WITH THE BREAD.
It is not uncommon for the kneading paddle to come out with the bread loaf. Once the loaf cools, remove paddle with the hook tool.

DOUGH IS NOT BLENDING THOROUGHLY; FLOUR AND OTHER INGREDIENTS ARE BUILT UP ON SIDES OF PAN; BREAD LOAF IS COATED WITH FLOUR
Bread pan or kneading paddle may not be installed properly.
Too many ingredients.
Gluten-free dough is typically very wet. It may need additional help by scraping sides with a rubber spatula.
Make sure bread pan is securely set in unit and kneading paddle is firmly on shaft.
Make sure ingredients are measured accurately and added in the proper order.

UNEVEN LOAF-ONE SIDE SHORTER
Cause: Dough is too dry
Solution: Increase liquid by 1-2 tsp.

COLLAPSED DURING BAKING
This may be cause from baking in high altitude. Make adjustments for high altitude by decreasing yest by 1/4 tsp and liquid by 1-2 tsp.

KNEADING PADDLE CAN NOT BE REMOVED
Soak the kneading blade in the bread pan in warm water for 20 minutes before trying to remove. Twist it off after soaking.

BREAD DIFFICULT TO SHAKE OUT/STICKS TO PAN
This is possible after prolonged use.
Use solid shortening or vegetable oil to coat the inside of the pan.
Add 1 tsp. vegetable oil to the liquid in the bread pan before adding the dry ingredients.
Never use an oil spray as the sticking will worsen.

MACHINE LOST POWER OR UNPLUGGED BY MISTAKE FOR LONGER THAN 5 MINUTES. HOW CAN I SAVE THE BREAD?
If this happened in the knead cycle, simply reprogram to the same bread setting and turn the machine back on.
If this happened during the rise or bake cycle, preheat your conventional oven to 350 deg F. Remove the bread pan from the machine and bake on a rack in the center of the oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown.

IF YOU CAN NOT CHANGE the mode, temperature or time, that means the unit is already working. Simply, press and hold to stop the function and the unit will go back to the default setting. Now you can start fresh, and proceed with step 4 on page 7.
