Caution, hot surfaces: This appliance
generates heat and escaping steam
during use. Proper precautions
must be taken to prevent the risk
of burns, fires or other injury to
persons or damage to property.
POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only)
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is
intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify
the plug in any way.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant
screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the
risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the
outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply
cord) is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension
cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.
c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension
cord is used,
1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable
power-supply cord or extension cord should be
at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance,
2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the
extension cord should be a grounding-type
3-wire cord, and
3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it
can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be
replaced by qualified personnel; in Latin America, by an
authorized service center.

POWER OUTAGE
7-Minute Power Failure Back-Up
Your Breadman
back-up feature. If the electricity goes out, the memory will
store your cycle selection for up to 7 minutes. If the power
comes back on within this time, bread making will resume
where it left off.
If the bread maker loses power for more than 7 minutes and
you are using any dairy products, perishables or meat in your
bread, you should discard the contents of the recipe and start
again with new fresh ingredients due to health and sanitary
considerations. For nonperishable recipes you may try starting
the bread maker at the beginning of the cycle again. However,
this may not always produce an acceptable loaf of bread.
If you are not sure when the outage occurred, remove the dough
and discard.

WHITE
Used for breads that primarily include white bread flour,
although some recipes may include small amounts of whole
wheat flour.
WHOLE WHEAT
Used for recipes with significant amounts of whole wheat or
rye flour, oats or bran. Whole wheat cycle begins with rest
period during which flours or grains absorb liquid ingredients.
Soaking causes flour or grain to soften and helps ingredients
to combine. Generally, whole wheat and multi-grain breads are
shorter and denser than white, French or sweet.
FRENCH
Traditionally, French bread has a slightly crispier crust and
lighter texture than white bread. Recipes usually do not include
butter, margarine or milk.
