Bread Pan & Kneading Blades
The most important thing when cleaning your Home Bakery is to keep the non-stick
coating of the bread pan and kneading blades in good order. Never use metal utensils to
remove loaves, cakes or jam from the bread pan, as this will damage the non-stick
coating.
Avoid using strong detergents and don’t put the pan or kneading blades in the dishwasher.
The strong detergent used in dishwasher tablets or liquids can damage the non-stick
coating in the long term. If you can get away with just using water to clean the pan then
just use water.
After making a loaf a simple wipe round the pan with a damp cloth should be sufficient. If
necessary, you can part fill the pan with water and leave it to soak for an hour (but no
longer) to release any stubborn dough/bread fragments.
After making a cake or jam it is very likely that the bread pan will need to be soaked.
However, avoid immersing the whole pan in water as this may damage the seals under the
kneading blade shafts. The best method is to simply fill the pan with water, leave to soak
for an hour then wipe round with a cloth. Jam can be particularly stubborn so use hot water
and a tiny amount of washing up liquid if absolutely necessary.
The oven
Since most of the ingredients are loaded into the bread pan away from the oven it should
not need to be cleaned too often. However, if you have an accidental spill or overflow, wait
for the oven to cool completely then wipe round with a damp cloth moistened with a mild
detergent solution then wipe dry.
The Machine
A simple wipe with a cloth moistened in a mild detergent solution should be sufficient.
IN ALL CASES ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE MACHINE IS COLD AND
DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING
