If the unit does not start, check the following:

Is the power cord plugged in? If not, plug the power cord in securely.

Does the clock display indicate OEO2? The unit will not operate if the oven’s interior temperature is above 131°F, such as immediately after baking. Open the lid and let it cool down.

Does the clock display indicate OEO1? If so, contact qualified service personnel.

If the dough is not kneading or mixing, check the following:

Is the dough blade attached correctly? If not, remove the pan, take out the ingredients, and attach the dough blade correctly.

Does the clock display indicate Err 1? If so, let the unit rest for approximately 30 minutes until this disappears from the display.

If your bread is not baking, check these possible causes:

Is the Mixing program being used? The Mixing program is designed only for dough making and the unit will not enter the baking process. Remove the ingredients, replace with new ingredients, and start the unit in the right program.

Is the dough blade properly attached? If not, attach the dough blade correctly.

Was the glass cover opened during baking? Keep the glass cover closed during baking.

Does the clock display read HEO1 or HEO2? Contact qualified service personnel.

If you are having issues baking with the timer, check the following:

Does the clock display indicate the present time? If not, correctly set the clock to read the current time of day.

Is the program timer set correctly? Carefully read the instructions for setting the program timer.

Does the clock display flash on and off reading 12:00? A power failure may have occurred. Remove ingredients and start all over.

MAIN UNIT

• Unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before cleaning.

• Gently wipe off dirt with a damp sponge or soft cloth. Wipe dry with a clean cloth.

• Never use any chemical cleaners, abrasive powders, or scouring pads.

• Non-kitchen detergents or bleach should not be used.

PAN AND DOUGH BLADE

• Clean these parts thoroughly using a sponge or soft cloth dampened in lukewarm water and mild dishwashing liquid. After cleaning, dry them completely and store them inside the main unit.

• NOTE: The Pan is coated with fluorine resin. Use only plastic utensils to avoid scratching or damaging this coating.

BAKING CRUMBS

• Remove flour and bread crumbs and all foreign matter from the inside of the oven with a damp cloth.

SHAFT

• Remove all crumbs after each use. Use a sponge or cloth to wipe clean.

PACKING

• If crumbs accumulate on the bottom of the main unit, remove the packing and clean thoroughly with a damp sponge or soft cloth.

• Be sure to reinstall the packing properly or water may leak from the pan.

AIR INTAKE

• Occasionally clean the air intake vent on the bottom of the unit to prevent it from clogging. Use a vacuum cleaner crevice tool or soft brush to do this.

If the power is cut during use due to a power failure or unplugging the unit, the bread making process will end. In this case, remove the ingredients from the inner pot, replace them with fresh ingredients, and start over from the beginning.

Please note that if the power is cut off during the programmed time, the clock display will flash 12:00 on and off, making it impossible to continue bread making.

Cause: Ingredients were not at room temperature or were not placed in the recommended order.

Solution: Ingredients must be at room temperature unless otherwise noted. Place ingredients in the Bakery pan in the recommended order.

Cause: Yeast did not activate.

Solution: Be certain yeast is fresh; check the expiration date on the package. Do not reduce the amount of sugar or sweetener called for in the recipe; do not use artificial sweeteners. Too much salt can inhibit dough from rising; use the amount specified in the recipe.

Cause: Low gluten flour was used.

Solution: Unless otherwise noted, always use bread flour.

Cause: High altitude.

Solution: For every 1000 feet above 3000 feet sea level, reduce the water by 1 tablespoon, up to a maximum of 4 tablespoons.

Cause: Dough rose unevenly.

Solution: Make sure water is no warmer than room temperature (70°-80°F). Flour is very absorbent and can absorb moisture from the air during periods of excessive humidity. If the dough is too sticky, the bread can collapse. Reduce water or liquid in the recipe by up to 4 tablespoons. Let the appliance knead for 1 to 2 minutes; if the dough appears too dry, add additional water 1 tablespoon at a time, up to 3 tablespoons.

Cause: Weather is very hot and/or humid.

Solution: Do not bake bread in the Bakery until it is cooler and less humid. Reduce yeast by 25% to 50%. For example, if a recipe calls for 2 teaspoons, try 1.5 teaspoons down to 1 teaspoon.

Cause: Too much or the wrong type of yeast was used.

Solution: Use the specified amount of yeast. Do not use fast-rising yeast; only use active dry yeast.

Cause: Ingredients were not measured properly.

Solution: Measure ingredients carefully. Use U.S. Standard measuring cups and spoons.

Cause: The lid was opened.

Solution: Do not open the lid during the final kneading and baking cycle.

Cause: Ambient temperature is lower than 70°F.

Solution: Use the appliance in a warmer location.

Cause: The baking temperature is too high.

Solution: Set the Baking Control on a lower setting.

Cause: The recipe has been modified.

Solution: Reduce the amount of sweetener and shortening.

Problem: Butter/margarine does not blend in well with other ingredients.

Cause: Too hard.

Solution: All ingredients must be at room temperature unless otherwise noted.

Problem: Ingredients are not well blended.

Cause: Ingredients were not added at the appropriate moment.

Solution: Pre-measure all ingredients. Add as indicated in the recipe.

Problem: Quick bread doesn’t bake completely.

Cause: Bakery lid was up, or the bread was not baked at the right temperature.

Solution: The lid must be down while baking. Set Baking Control on a darker setting and tent a piece of aluminum foil, shiny side down, over the glass dome.

Problem: Quick bread burns.

Cause: Bread was not baked at the right temperature, or the recipe was modified.

Solution: Set Baking Control on a lighter setting. Reduce the amount of sweetener and shortening.

Cause: The dough is too soft.

Solution: Ingredients must be at room temperature. The ambient temperature should not exceed 80°F. Do not overmix cookie dough; press CLEAR/STOP when the dough appears well mixed. If the dough is too soft, refrigerate it for approximately 1 hour or until slightly firm before baking.

Cause: Ingredients were at the wrong temperature, dough was over-worked, or dough is too warm and gluten is not relaxed.

Solution: For pastries, butter and/or shortenings and water must be well chilled. Never work the dough longer than specified in the recipe. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for approximately 1 hour or until firm. This “rest” allows gluten to relax and butter/shortening to harden, which is very important so that the crust will be light and flaky when baked.
