To Protect The Non-Stick Finish; Troubleshooting - Panasonic SD-YR2500 Notice D'utilisation

To protect the non-stick finish

Bread pan and kneading blade are coated with a non-stick finish to avoid stains and to make it easier when removing
bread.
To avoid damaging it, please follow the instructions below.
• Do not use hard utensils such as a knife or a fork when removing bread from the bread pan.
When you have hard time taking out the bread from the bread pan, see P.EN30.
• Ensure that the kneading blade is not embedded in the bread loaf before slicing it.
If it is embedded, wait for the loaf to cool and remove it.
(Do not use hard or sharp utensils such as a knife or a fork.)
Be careful not to get burns as the kneading blade may still be hot.
• Use the soft sponge when cleaning the bread pan and the kneading blade.
Do not use anything abrasive such as cleansers or scouring pads.
 Hard, coarse or large ingredients such as flours with whole or ground grains, sugar, or the addition of nuts and seeds may damage the
non-stick finish of the bread pan. If using large chunks of ingredients, break into small pieces. Please make sure to follow the recipe quantities
stated.
