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 prop-

erty.

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
counter top 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 Professional Bread Maker has a 7-minute power failure 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.

KNEADING AND BAKING CYCLES

Note: If at any time during bread making process you need to turn bread maker off, press
and hold the START/STOP (I/O) button for several seconds, then unplug the unit.

Note: If bread is not removed immediately after baking and START/STOP button is not

pressed, a controlled 60-minute Keep Warm mode will begin (except during Dough, Jam &
Pasta). For best results, remove bread immediately after baking process is complete.

BASIC

Used for breads that primarily include white bread flour, although some recipes may
include small amounts of whole wheat flour.

FRENCH

Traditionally, French bread has a slightly crispier crust and lighter texture than white
bread. Recipes usually do not include butter, margarine or milk.

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.

SWEET

Used for recipes that contain eggs, fruit juice, additional sugar or added sweet ingredients
such as coconut flakes, raisins, dried fruit or chocolate. Baking temperature is reduced to
prevent burning.

SUPER RAPID

Used for White, Whole Wheat and French cycles to decrease time to approximately 1 hour.
Choose recipe, then simply add ½ tsp. to amount of yeast listed for a 2-lb. loaf. Bread may
be shorter and denser than bread made using the longer program.

DOUGH

Use to prepare dough for making bread, rolls or pizza which are shaped and allowed to
rise before baking in a conventional oven. This setting blends and kneads the dough and
takes it through the first rise.

PASTA

Several different kinds of doughs can be mixed using the PASTA program. Remove dough
and follow directions with the recipe to complete the baking/cooking.

GLUTEN-FREE

Used for gluten-free recipes.

JAM

Use to prepare preserves, marmalade, chutneys and ketchup.
Add fruit, sugar and lemon juice for homemade preserves –
a great topping for homemade bread, waffles and ice cream.

BAKE ONLY

Used if crust is too light or you wish to bake pre-made dough – also especially useful if
your bread is not quite done. Check every few minutes. Bakes for up to 1 hour, 30 minutes.

TIPS ON FLOUR STORAGE

Keep flour in a secure, airtight container. Store rye and whole wheat flours in a
refrigerator, freeze or a cool area to prevent them from becoming rancid. Allow flour to
come to room temperature before using.

Note: Flours, while visibly similar, can be very different in how they are ground, milled,
stored, etc. You may have to experiment with different brands of flour to help you make the
perfect loaf. See RECIPE TIPS to assist with these experiments.

YEAST

Active yeast, through a fermentation process, produces carbon dioxide gas necessary to
make bread rise. Yeast feeds on carbohydrates in sugar and flour to produce this gas.
Three different types of yeast are available: fresh (cake), active dry and quick-acting.
Quick, rapid rise and bread machine yeasts are quick-acting. Fresh (cake) yeast is NOT
RECOMMENDED for use with your bread maker.

TIPS ON YEAST

Ensure your yeast is fresh by checking its expiration date. Ideally, yeast should be used
several months before the expiration date. Once a package or jar of yeast is opened, it is
important that the remaining contents be immediately resealed and refrigerated or frozen
for future use. Often dough that fails to rise is due to stale yeast.

Note: Basic bread and dough recipes in this booklet were developed using active dry yeast.
You may use chart below to substitute any quick-acting yeast (quick rise, fast rise or bread
maker yeast) for active dry yeast.

CONVERSION CHART FOR BREAD MACHINE YEAST

¾ tsp. bread machine yeast = ½ tsp. quick-acting yeast
1 tsp. bread machine yeast = ¾ tsp. quick-acting yeast
1½ tsp. bread machine yeast = 1 tsp. quick-acting yeast
2¼ tsp. bread machine yeast = 1½ tsp. quick-acting yeast
1 tbsp. bread machine yeast = 2 tsp. quick-acting yeast

RAPID CYCLES

Rapid cycle settings for White, Whole Wheat and French decrease time for making your
favorite bread in approximately 1 hour. Choose recipe, then add an additional ½ tsp. of
bread machine yeast to the recipe. The bread may be shorter and denser.

All-purpose flour is a blend of refined hard and soft wheat flours ideally suited for making quick
breads and cakes.

Bran (unprocessed) is coarse outer portion of wheat or rye grains that is separated from flour
by sifting or bolting. It is often added to bread in small quantities for nutritional enrichment,
heartiness and flavor. It is also used to enhance bread texture.

Bread flour typically has higher gluten concentration than all-purpose flour. Using bread flour
will produce loaves with better volume and structure.

Cornmeal and oatmeal come from coarsely ground white or yellow corn and from rolled or
steel-cut oats. They are used primarily to enhance flavor and texture of bread.

Cracked wheat has very coarse texture. It comes from wheat kernels cut into angular
fragments. It gives whole grain breads a nutty flavor and crunchy texture.

Rye flour must always be mixed with high proportion of bread flour, as it does not contain
enough gluten to develop structure for high, even-grained loaf.

Self-Rising Flour is NOT RECOMMENDED for use with your bread maker. Self-rising flour
contains leavening ingredients that will interfere with bread and quick bread making.

7 grain cereal blend is a blend of cracked wheat, oats, bran, rye, cornmeal, flax seeds and
hulled millet. It is used primarily to enhance flavor and texture of bread.

Vital Wheat Gluten is manufactured from wheat flour that has been treated to remove nearly
all of the starch to leave a very high protein content. (Gluten is the protein in wheat that makes
dough elastic.) Vital Wheat Gluten is available at most health food stores. It can be used in small
portions to increase volume and lighten texture.

Whole wheat flour is milled from the entire wheat kernel, which contains the bran and germ.
This high fiber flour is richer in nutrients than all-purpose or bread flour. Breads made with this
flour are usually smaller and heavier than white loaves. Many recipes mix whole wheat flour
with bread flour or vital wheat gluten to produce higher, lighter-textured bread.

MEASURING YOUR INGREDIENTS

The most important step when using your Breadman® Bread Maker for making bread is
measuring your ingredients. It is very important to measure each liquid and dry ingredient

accurately. For best results, add ingredients into the Bread Pan in the order given in each
recipe.

LIQUID MEASUREMENTS

Use transparent plastic or glass liquid measuring cups to measure all liquid ingredients.
Place the cup on a horizontal flat surface and view markings at eye level. The level of the
liquid must be aligned to the appropriate mark of measurement. A “guesstimate” is not
good enough, as it could throw off the critical balance of the recipe.

DRY MEASUREMENTS

Dry ingredients must be measured using standard size dry measuring cups. These cups
are available in various sizes. Gently spoon dry ingredients into the measuring cup and
level off with a knife. Do not scoop or tap measuring cup, as this will pack the ingredients.
This extra amount could affect the balance of the recipe. Do not sift flour in bread making.

When measuring small amounts of dry or liquid ingredients (i.e. yeast, sugar, salt, dry
milk, honey or molasses), a standard measuring spoon must be used. Measurements
must be level, not heaping.

The Breadman® Bread Maker produces delicious baked goods with ease. This marvelous
appliance asks only that you carefully follow the recipe instructions. In most cooking,
a pinch of this and a dash of that is fine, but this is not the case for automatic Bread
Makers. Using this Breadman® Bread Maker requires that you accurately measure each
ingredient.

MEASUREMENT/CONVERSION CHART

1-1/2 tsp = 1/2 TBL 8 TBL = 1/2 cup
3 tsp = 1 TBL 12 TBL = 3/4 cup
1/2 TBL = 1-1/2 tsp 16 TBL = 1 cup
2 TBL = 1/8 cup 3/8 cup = 1/4 cup + 2 TBL
4 TBL = 1/4 cup 5/8 cup = 1/2 cup + 2 TBL
5 TBL+ 1 tsp = 1/3 cup 7/8 cup = 3/4 cup + 2 TBL

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENT NOTES
Important: Exact measurements for ingredients are the most important part of baking. It is the key to getting great texture and consistency
in your bread. Make sure to measure all ingredients exactly.

BAKING POWDER

BAKING SODA

EGGS

FATS

LIQUIDS

SALT

SUGAR

Double-acting baking powder is a leavening agent used in quick breads and cakes. This type of leavening agent does
not require rising time before baking, as chemical reaction works when liquid ingredients
are added and again during baking process.

Baking soda is another leavening agent, not to be confused or substituted for baking powder.
It also does not require rising time before baking, as chemical reaction works during baking process.

Eggs add richness and velvety texture to bread dough and cakes. When recipe calls for egg(s),
large egg(s) at room temperature should be used.

Butter, margarine and oil shorten or tenderize the texture of yeast breads. French bread gets unique crust and
texture from the lack of added fat. However, breads that call for fat stay fresh longer.
If butter is used directly from refrigerator, it should be cut into small pieces for easier blending
during kneading process.

All liquids should be warm 80ºF/27ºC to 90°F/32°C for all recipes. Liquids, such as milk, water or a combination of
powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. Milk will improve flavor,
provide velvety texture and soften the crust, while water alone will produce a crispier crust. Vegetable
or fruit juices and potato water may be used for flavor variety.

Salt is necessary to balance flavor in breads and cakes; it also limits growth of yeast. Changing the amount of salt in
a given recipe may result in shorter, gummier bread. When first making a type of bread, do not increase or decrease
amount of salt shown in the recipe.

Sugar is important for color and flavor of breads. It also serves as food for yeast since it the supports fermentation
process. Recipes in this book that call for sugar require granulated sugar.

Important: Do not substitute powdered sugar. Artificial sweeteners cannot be used as substitute,
as yeast will not react properly with them.

CLIMATE CHANGES & BAKING

• In high-altitude areas (over 3,000 feet), dough tends to rise faster
as there is less air pressure. Therefore, less yeast is necessary.

• In dry climates, flour is drier and requires slightly more liquid.

• In humid climates, flour is wetter and will absorb less liquid, so less liquid is required.

How to Use

This product is for household use only.

GETTING STARTED

• Remove packing materials and any stickers.

• Please go to www.prodprotect.com/applica to register your warranty.

• Place bread maker on dry, stable, level surface away from heat and areas where
cooking grease or water may splatter on unit. Do not place near edge of counter top.
If placing beneath cabinets, make sure there is enough room to open the lid without
interference.

Important: Your bread maker will bake up to a 2lb. loaf. Do not put larger quantities of
ingredients into bread pan. Bread will not mix and bake correctly and bread maker may
become damaged. (See MAXIMUM INGREDIENT AMOUNTS.)

• Before first use, operate on Rapid White cycle without adding ingredients to burn off
manufacturing oils. (Follow instructions in USING YOUR BREAD MAKER.)

Note: During first use, bread maker may smoke and/or

emit an odor from mineral oils used in manufacturing. This is normal.

MAXIMUM INGREDIENT AMOUNTS

• Bread cycles 4 to 4-2/3 cups

• Batter Breads and prepackaged cake mixes 4 cups

• Dough cycles 4-2/3 cups

• Jam 3 cups fruit

BREAD PAN TIPS
Inserting bread pan
Note: Remember to insert kneading paddles first, then add all ingredients in the order

listed BEFORE inserting the bread pan into baking chamber.

• When inserting bread pan into bread maker, make sure to set firmly in place.

Removing bread pan

• To remove bread pan from baking chamber, hold handle with an oven mitt and lift

straight up firmly.

Important: When you remove bread pan after baking, be sure to wear oven mitts to
prevent burning.

• After removing loaf (by turning bread pan upside down and shaking gently), check to

see that kneading paddle is removed from loaf. If it is stuck in bread, allow bread to
cool; then use a non-metal utensil to remove it, taking care not to scratch the kneading
paddle. Allow bread to cool before removing the kneading paddle.

CHECKING DOUGH CONSISTENCY

Although your bread maker will mix, knead and bake bread automatically,
when baking bread from scratch, it is recommended that you learn to
recognize condition of your dough. The ratio of flour to liquid is the most
critical factor in any bread recipe, yet the most easily remedied. After 5 to
8 minutes in Knead 2, open bread maker to check consistency of dough.
Dough should be in a soft, tacky ball (feel sticky like scotch tape). If it is
too dry, add 1 tsp. of liquid at a time. If it is too wet, add 1 tbsp. of flour at a

B

time.

USING YOUR BREAD MAKER
Note: Depending on the cycle or recipe used, some steps may not

apply or there may be additional steps. Refer to the respective recipes
instructions in the recipes portion of this booklet, as well as the specific

Bake Only, Pasta

13. Turn bread pan upside down and shake to release bread (G). Place

bread upright on wire rack to cool at least 20 minutes before
slicing.

Caution: Be sure to remove kneading paddle from the bread before serving.
Caution: Bread pan, kneading paddle and bread will be

very hot. Allow bread to cool before removing the paddle.

14. Unplug unit and allow to cool completely before cleaning.

(See CARE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS.)

Important: Make sure to clean the inside of the baking
chamber thoroughly after each use.

15. Once bread has cooled (approximately 2 hours) store in

an airtight container.

SLICING AND STORING BREAD

For best results, place bread on wire rack and allow to cool at least 20 minutes before
slicing. Use electric knife or serrated knife for even slices.
Store unused bread, tightly sealed (sealable plastic bags or plastic containers work well)
at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, (up to 1 month) place bread in
sealed container in freezer. Since homemade bread has no preservatives, it tends to dry
out and become stale faster. Leftover or slightly hardened bread may be cut into ½-inch or
1-inch cubes and used in recipes to make croutons, bread pudding or stuffing.

USING 15-HOUR DELAY BAKE TIMER
Important: Delay baking does not activate JAM cycle. Do not use delay bake timer if your

recipe includes perishables, such as, eggs, fresh milk, yogurt or other dairy products
and meats, etc. To preset your bread maker, follow these steps:

1. Add ingredients in the order listed as usual, taking care not to let yeast and liquid

ingredients contact one another.

Note: If your recipe contains salt, add it with the liquid ingredients, taking care to keep it
away from the yeast.

hold START/STOP for several seconds. Timer will clear and you can begin again.

BAKE ONLY

The BAKE ONLY cycle offers the flexibility to vary time. You can bake pre-made dough or
dough purchased at the store using this cycle. You may also use this cycle if crust color is
too light or if your sweet bread is not quite done. Check every few minutes.

1. Press the MENU Button until 10 (BAKE) appears in the Display Window.

2. Press the ▲ (UP) and t (DOWN) TIMER Buttons (arrows) to adjust the amount of time

you need to BAKE, from 1 to 15 hours.

3. Press the START/STOP Button to begin the BAKE cycle.

4. If you need less than 1 hour, press the START/STOP Button to cancel the BAKE cycle at

the desired time.

SPECIAL GLAZES FOR YEAST BREADS

Select 1 of the following special glazes to enhance your bread:

• Melted Butter Crust: Brush melted butter over just-baked bread for a softer, more

tender crust.

• Milk Glaze: For a softer, shiny crust, brush just-baked bread with milk or cream.

• Sweet Icing Glaze: Mix 1 cup sifted confectioner’s sugar with 1 to

2 tablespoons of milk, water or fruit juice until smooth. Drizzle glaze over raisin or
sweet bread when they are almost cool.

Note: If desired, generously sprinkle with your choice of nuts or seeds after glazing.
DOUGH CYCLE
Tips for Best Results

• If using delay bake timer, make sure yeast is on top of flour, away from liquids.

Important: Never allow dough to remain in bread maker after cycle is complete; it may
over rise and damage machine.

14

• Rising times for dough after it is shaped and placed in baking pan will vary due to

recipe, temperature and humidity level of your kitchen. Optimum temperature for rising
is 80°– 85°F. Rising is the most essential feature in bread making.

• Bread maker allows dough to have first rise or fermentation before dough is removed.

Fermentation conditions gluten, (becoming pliable and elastic with a soft, smooth
quality) develops flavor and leavens product.

• Sometimes a double rising is beneficial especially for whole grain or 100% whole wheat

bread. Let dough rise once in bread maker. Remove from bread maker, punch down,
let rise again, punch down and let rest 10 minutes. Resting allows gluten to relax and
makes handling easier. Shape as desired and allow to rise until doubled in volume. If
only 1 rise is desired, remove from bread maker, let rest, shape and rise as above.

• Baker’s Tip: Dough has doubled in volume when an indentation remains after tip of a

finger is pressed lightly and quickly into dough. If indentation springs back, cover and
let rise a few more minutes and check again.

SPECIAL TIPS FOR MAKING DOUGH
Important: For use only with the Dough Cycle.

• Always allow optimum rising of shaped dough.

• Use pastry brush to apply glaze.

• Bake as directed in recipe.

Apply Just Before Baking:
Egg Yolk Glaze

For shiny golden crust, mix 1 slightly beaten egg or egg yolk with 1 tbsp. water or milk.

Egg White Glaze

For shiny, chewy crust, mix 1 slightly beaten egg white with 1 tbsp. water.
If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts or fruit and/or seeds after glazing.

Lightly Floured

Sprinkle enough flour onto work area so dough can be handled without sticking.

Shaped Rolls
Important: Once rolls are shaped, cover and let rise until doubled before baking.

Cloverleaf Rolls

Shape into ½-inch balls. Place 3 balls in each greased muffin tin.

Crisscross Rolls

Shape into balls, setting 2 aside. Combine balls and roll into a ¹⁄8-inch thick square. Cut
strips ¹⁄8-inch wide and 2-inches long. Brush top of roll with beaten egg. Place 1 strip
across top of each ball. Repeat process, placing second strip in opposite direction across
top of each ball.

Traditional Rolls

Shape into balls. For “pull apart” rolls, place dough balls with sides touching in 8 or 9 inch
round or square greased baking pan. For “individual” rolls place dough balls 2-inches
apart.

Crescent Rolls

On lightly floured board, roll dough to 12-inch circle. Spread with softened butter. Cut
into 16 wedges beginning at wider end. Place rolls 2 inches apart on greased baking sheet
with points underneath; curve rolls slightly. If desired, brush with melted butter just before
baking.

Rosettes

On lightly floured board, roll about 1 ½ oz piece of dough into 14 inch rope. Tie in a loose
knot, leaving 2 long ends. Tuck one end under knot and second end into the top center of
the loose knot. Place 2 inches apart on lightly greased baking sheet.

JAM CYCLE METHOD AND RECIPES

Use this cycle for making jams from fresh or frozen fruits. Do not double recipes or allow
ingredients to boil over the Baking Pan into the Baking Chamber. Should this happen, stop
the Bread Maker immediately. Allow to cool and clean thoroughly.

Press the MENU Button until 9 (JAM) appears in the Display Window.

Method:

1. Remove the Bread Pan from the Breadman®. Attach the Kneading Paddle onto the

Drive Shaft. Have all ingredients ready. Clean fresh berries or fruit, cut into 1/2-inch
cubes and drain. If using frozen fruit, thaw and drain.

2. Use a liquid measuring cup to measure the drained fruit, then crush with a potato

masher or with your hands.

3. Use a dry measuring cup to measure the sugar.

4. Use a measuring spoon to measure the lemon juice, if using.

5. Place the Bread Pan into the Breadman®. Push down until it fits firmly into place.

Close Lid.

6. The Display Window will show 9 (JAM). Press the START/STOP Button.

7. The Bread Maker will pre-heat for 15 minutes before any movement occurs in the

Bread Pan. After pre-heating, the jam will be heated and mixed for approximately 50
minutes. The entire JAM cycle takes 1 hour 5 minutes.

8. When the jam is finished, the Breadman® will beep and “0:00” will appear in the

Display Window. Press the START/STOP Button and open the Lid.

CAUTION: THE OVEN CAVITY, BREAD PAN, KNEADING PADDLE AND JAM WILL BE VERY
HOT USE OVEN MITTS.

9. Remove the Bread Pan from the Breadman®. BE SURE TO USE OVEN MITTS.

10. Pour the hot jam into a heat-safe container. Leave on the counter top to cool;

stir frequently.

11. Pour the jam into a refrigerator/freezer-safe container, leaving 1/2" of space at the top.

12. Cover tightly to store. Jam will thicken upon cooling.

PASTA CYCLE

Use this cycle to mix doughs and then follow directions with the recipe to complete the
baking/cooking. Several different kinds of doughs can be mixed using the PASTA program.
Remove dough and follow directions with the recipe to complete the baking/cooking.

• It is very important that you assist the Bread Maker in the stirring process. After 5

minutes (:09), open the Lid and use a rubber spatula to gently scrape the ingredients
from the sides and corners of the Bread Pan and fold into the wet mixture. Close the
Lid and allow the Bread Maker to complete the cycle.

• Because cookie dough is more difficult to work with, it may be necessary to repeat part

or all of the PASTA cycle. Remember to check the mixture after 5 minutes and assist
when necessary.

TROUBLESHOOTING

QUESTION ANSWER

Why does height and shape
of bread differ in each loaf?

Bread has unusual aroma. Why? Stale ingredients may have been used or too much yeast may have been used. Always use fresh

Kneading paddle comes out with
bread.

Bread has floured corners. Sometimes flour in the corners of the bread pan may not have been completely kneaded into dough.

or doubled?

Can fresh milk be used
in place of dry milk?

Height and shape of bread may differ depending on the ingredients, room temperature and length of timer
cycle. Also, accurate measurement of ingredients is essential to make delicious bread.

ingredients. Accurate measurements are essential to make delicious bread.

This can happen, as kneading paddle is detachable. Use a nonmetal utensil to remove it.

Caution: Kneading paddle will be hot. Allow bread to cool before removing paddles.

Scrape it off the loaf with a knife. Check bread about 10 minutes into kneading cycle. If all flour is not
incorporated, use a rubber spatula to remove the flour from the sides of the bread pan so it can be
incorporated into the dough.

NO. If there is too little in bread pan, kneading paddle cannot knead well enough. If there is too much,
bread rises out of bread pan.

YES. Be sure to decrease same measurement of water to equal liquid substitution.
Fresh milk is not recommended when using delay bake timer, because it may spoil while
sitting in bread pan.
