So tomorrow he will bring it home for me to clean and start using.....only problem is she doesn't think she knows where the instructions are.....what can i do???

Thanks as always for any help and hugs to you all!

    The Swan brand is now owned by Littlewoods, but I couldn't find anything about it on the LW website.

    I did find that it is possible to BUY a manual, here's the link:

    Hope that helps
  • Thanks...I may just do that........must go back to bed for a few more zzzzzzz's.

    There are lots of other interesting bits on there too :)
  • What model is it? I'll see if I can find one on Google for you.

    I have had exactly the same problem. I bought a Swan super rapid automatic breadmaker from Ebay for my brother and his girlfriend for Christmas, it was described as only used once (yeah right!) and with all instructions as new. It finally arrived minus the box and no instructions. I have searched high and low on google, requested on freecycle and posted here but found absolutely nothing :mad: I emailed the seller on Ebay but no response. If you do get a manual could you please let me know?

    Thanks Culpepper for that link, thats a great find!

    If I buy an appliance from a boot sale or something similar without the instructions I go to the website of the manfacturer and email them saying you have mislaid your instruction booklet. Include your address and they will usually send you one.
