Always make sure that the kneading blade does not stay inside the bread, otherwise you may

damage the kneading blade when you slice the bread.

Do not use other metal utensils to remove the kneading blade, as these may damage the

non-stick coating of the kneading blade.

Be careful, the kneading blade and the bread are hot.

6 Immediately remove the kneading blade from the bread pan to prevent it from getting stuck.

Note: If the blade is stuck, ll the bread pan with water to a level above the kneading blade and let the

bread pan soak for 30 minutes. Then remove the kneading blade from the shaft.

7 Let the bread cool down on the wire cooling rack for 30-60 minutes before you slice it with

a bread knife or electric knife.

8 Let the appliance cool down before you clean it or before you bake another loaf of bread.

- Bread should be eaten while fresh, as it does not contain any preservatives. It can only be stored

for 1 or 2 days.

- Store the bread at room temperature in a tightly sealed plastic bag or an airtight container.

- Sliced bread loses its freshness and dries out more quickly than unsliced bread.

- Store French-style bread in a paper bag or exposed to the air to retain the crisp crust. This type

of bread is best eaten on the same day on which it was baked.
