IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON PROTECTING ELECTRONIC CONTROL

To protect bread 

maker’s electronic control against possible damage caused by surges in electrical power line, we recommend using a surge 
protector device, available in the electronics department of most discount/hardware stores. Simply plug surge protector into 
the electrical outlet, then plug bread maker cord into receptacle of surge protector. 
 

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS 

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, property 
damage, electrical shock and/or personal injury, including the following:  
Read all instructions before using. 
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Always use potholders or oven mitts to handle hot bread pan or hot bread. 
Do not put hand inside oven chamber after bread pan is removed. Heating unit will still be hot. 
To protect against electrical shock, do not place cord, plug or appliance in water or other liquid. 
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. 
Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before 
cleaning appliance. 
Avoid contacting moving parts.  
Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any 
manner. Return appliance to West Bend Housewares for examination, repair or adjustment. 
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by West Bend Housewares may result in fire, electrical shock or 
personal injury.  
Do not use outdoors. 
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.  
Do not place appliance on or near a hot gas or electrical burner, or in a heated oven. 
Do not use appliance for other than intended use.  
To disconnect power, press stop button to turn control off, then remove plug from wall outlet. Never pull on the cord. 
Extreme caution must be used when moving appliance during operation. 
 

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 

Your bread maker needs no special care other than cleaning. If servicing becomes necessary see warranty section in this 
booklet for details. Do not attempt to repair it yourself.  
 
For Household Use Only.  
 
An off odor from motor may be noted with first use, which is normal and will disappear with use.  
 

Electric Cord Statement: CAUTION

:

 Your bread maker has a short cord as a safety precaution to prevent 

personal injury or property damage resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with the cord. Do not allow 
children to be near or use this bread maker without close adult supervision. If you must use a longer cord set or an 
extension cord when using the bread maker, the cord must be arranged so it will not drape or hang over the edge of a 
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. To prevent electrical shock, personal injury or 
fire, the electrical rating of the extension cord you use must be the same or more than the wattage of the bread maker 
(wattage is stamped on backside of bread maker).
