I have an unused Silver Crest bread maker IAN 38170, which I picked up in a charity shop. When I turn it on to do the initial heat up suggested, it trips my RCD. It seems such a shame to bin it, does anyone know if there is a reset button or equivalent? I have been told by Lidl, where I have discovered it was originally sold, it is too old for them to repair and my local electrician says the part which has a minor fault cannot be reached.
Failing that would anyone like a gift of: baking mould; paddles; instruction book; recipe book. I just hate throwing things away and would be pleased if even some parts could be used.

I would throw it away. You don't want a faulty electrical appliance in your home.
An electrical problem like this is just too dangerous for a lay person to fool with and since you have already been told that it cannot be repaired - I agree that it should be dumped. As to the accessories - I'm like you - I do not like to throw usable things away so why not bag them up and donate them to one of your local thrift stores - preferably Hospice, but any church charity is better than Goodwill (sorry - my opinion).
