TROUBLE SHOOTING (CONTINUED)

Symptom

The bread didn’t
rise at all

The dough looks
like batter, or the
dough ball is still
sticky, not smooth
and round

The dough ball is
lumpy or too dry

Possible Solutions

Make sure yeast is not left out. Also check the date code
on the yeast and that it is always the last ingredient put
into the Pan. Make sure the yeast doesn’t come into
contact with salt or any liquid ingredients.

During the Kneading process, add 1 tablespoon of flour at a
time, letting it mix in well. For most breads, your dough ball
should become round, smooth, not sticky to the touch, and
should bounce back when you press it with your finger.

During the Kneading process, add 1 tablespoon of water at a
time, letting it mix in well.

The bread caved in Make sure liquids are measured correctly. Next time,

reduce your liquids by 2 tablespoons. If you’re using fruits
or vegetables, make sure they are well drained.

9. Do not use attachments not
recommended by Breadman

®

Products; they may damage the
appliance or cause injury.

10. This appliance is intended for
household use only. Do not use

surfaces. Do not place on an unsteady
or cloth-covered surface.

12. Do not place the appliance near a hot
gas or electric burner, in a heated oven.

13. Keep the unit at least 2 inches away
from walls or any other objects when
using it.

14. To disconnect, grip the plug and pull
the plug from the wall outlet. Never pull

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE:

A. A short power-supply cord is provided

to reduce the risk of becoming
entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord.

B. Extension cords are available and may

be used, but special care must be
exercised in use.

C. If an extension cord is used:

(1) the marked electrical rating of the

extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance, and

(2) the cord should be arranged so

that it will not drape over the
counter top or tabletop where it
can be pulled on by children or
tripped over unintentionally.

CAUTION: During use, the internal parts of
the Breadman

®

Ultimate™ and the area

around the Steam Vent are HOT.

Keep out of reach of children to avoid
possible injury.

The bread didn’t
rise enough

Did you add enough yeast, water or sweetener?

Make sure to add ingredients in the proper order: liquids,
dry ingredients, yeast. Make sure yeast doesn’t get wet
until the Breadman®mixes the ingredients together.

NOTE: Typically, bread made with whole grain flours

will not rise as high as bread made with refined
flours. Make sure you are using bread flour.

The bread rose
too high

Make sure not to add too much yeast, water or flour. Too
much of any of these may cause the loaf to rise more than
it should.

TROUBLE SHOOTING (CONTINUED)

Symptom

The Bread Machine
does not bake
the bread

Possible Solutions

The Dough program was selected. To bake the bread, choose
the appropriate program for baking bread.

Bread has an
offensive odor

Baked bread is soggy
or the bread’s surface
is sticky

Check to be sure you added the correct amount of yeast.
Measure carefully — too much yeast will cause an unpleasant
odor and may cause the loaf to rise too high.

Be sure to use only fresh ingredients.

Remove the bread from the Bread Pan as soon as it is
done baking. Leaving it in the Pan allows condensation
to collect on the sides touching the Pan.

Also be sure to cool the loaf on a wire rack; cooling it on
a countertop causes the side next to the counter to
become soggy.

The Kneading
Paddle was stuck
in the bread

Make sure the Kneading Paddle is mounted properly before
adding ingredients to the Bread Pan and baking.

Sometimes denser or crustier loaves of bread may pull the
Kneading Paddle out with them when you remove the loaves
after baking. When this happens, use a non-metal utensil and
gently remove the blade from the bottom of the loaf.

reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do
not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may
not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from
other appliances.
