Operation
WARNING: Always ensure that the appliance and all its parts and accessories are out of
reach of young children. Your new Design Bread Maker Plus is intended for cooking
edible food and is heated electrically. Thus, the heating elements will become very hot during
operation.
During operation DO NOT place the appliance near any inflammable or explosive liquids
or gases (e.g. spirit, propane gas cylinder or gas lighter). Additionally, do not place the ap-
pliance on heat-sensitive surfaces during operation, to avoid overheating and risk of fire and
electric shock.
Only place the appliance on a stable, dry, level, and clean surface. Do not place the appli-
ance on inclined surfaces where it can fall over and/or fall down. Do not place any clothes
or tissue or other foreign objects on or under the appliance during operation, to avoid risk of
fire, overheating, or electric shock. Do not block the ventilation slots of the housing. During
operation, the operating elements (see: ›Knowing Your Design Bread Maker Plus‹) must be
accessible all the time.
Ensure to keep the appliance in an appropriate distance of at least 30 cm on each side to the
edge of the working space and any other objects. During operation leave at least 1 m of free
space above the appliance for unhindered access.
Before assembling the appliance, always ensure that all parts are in proper working order.
(See: ›General Safety Instructions‹) Do not use any damaged or unsuitable parts to avoid risk
of injuries and damage. Additionally ensure that the heating compartment and
especially the heating elements are absolutely clean and dry. Even very
small particles on the heating elements could overheat or short-circuit du-
ring operation, thus catching fire!
Exclusively use the appliance for baking bread and cakes, or for preparing desserts, jam, or
yoghurt according to the instructions in this booklet. The appliance is NOT suited for drying
or storing any other food or materials.
DO NOT fill more than the maximum total amount of 750 g into the bread
pan! Check your recipe accordingly. Otherwise, the bread pan could overflow, with
food running out onto the heating elements. Food and foreign objects on the heating elements
will be burnt to charcoal during operation, thus causing risk of fire and electric shock via
short-circuit.

30 cm to other objects and to the edge of the table or counter.
