IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, especially when children
are present, basic safety precautions should always be taken,
including the following:

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS, PRODUCT LABELS AND

WARNINGS BEFORE USING THIS BREAD MAKER.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces; carry the unit by plastic base.
Always use oven mitts when handling hot material, and allow
metal parts to cool before cleaning. Allow the bread maker to
cool thoroughly before putting on or taking off parts.

3. When unit is not in use and before cleaning, unplug the
bread maker from wall outlet. Let the bread maker cool down
completely before assembling or disassembling it.

4. To protect against risk of electric shock, do not immerse the
appliance or plugs in water or other liquids.

5. Close supervision is always necessary when this or any appliance
is used near children or incapacitated persons.

6. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not plug
in cord where people may walk or trip on it. Unplug this bread
maker from the wall outlet when not in use, before you leave for a
trip, or go out for a long period of time.

7. Do not operate this or any appliance with a frayed or damaged
cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or
has been damaged in any manner. Take appliance to the nearest
authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electric or
mechanical adjustment.

8. Do not let the cord dangle over the edge of a table or counter or
touch hot surfaces. Do not place on an unsteady or cloth-covered
surface.

9. Avoid contact with moving parts.

10. Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
They may cause fire, electric shock or injury or may damage the
unit and void the warranty.

11. Do not use outdoors or for commercial purposes.

12. Do not place the appliance near a hot gas or electric burner,
or in a heated oven.

13. Keep power cord away from the hot surface of this bread maker.
Do not put any flammable objects on the hot surface of this bread
maker.

14. Place this bread maker a minimum of 2 inches away from any wall
or other object.

15. Do not use this bread maker for other than its intended use.

16. When plugging or unplugging this bread maker, be sure not to
touch the plug blades with your fingers.

17. Before unplugging, press and hold the START/STOP button for
1 to 3 seconds to cancel any programs, then grip plug and pull
from wall outlet. Never pull on the cord.

18. Use of extension cords: A short power-supply cord has been
provided to reduce the risk of injury resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may
be used with care. The marked electrical rating of the extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled by children or
tripped over accidentally. If the appliance is of the grounded type,
the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

19. If electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your bread
maker may not operate properly. This bread maker should be
operated on a separate electrical circuit from other operating
appliances.

20. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage or under
a wall cabinet. When storing in an appliance garage, always
unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so could
create a risk of fire, especially if the appliance touches the walls
of the garage or the door touches the unit as it closes.

21. Preheating of the appliance is necessary.

22. For household use only.

The Process

Once you start a program, the unit will automatically take care of each step
of the process until the loaf is done. An indicator on the LCD will show the
current function: Knead, Rise, Bake, or Keep Warm.

Knead – Most bread types use 2 Knead cycles. The first Knead cycle quickly
mixes the main ingredients. The second Knead cycle is longer, and continues
the mixing process. The dough is “punched down” before the longer cycle
begins, prior to removing the kneading paddle.

Rise – Rise cycles help to ensure the perfect consistency of all yeast breads.
During the Rise cycles, your bread maker will appear to be inactive.

a. Press START/STOP to pause the program.
b. Open the lid and remove the bread pan by the handle.
c. Take the dough from the pan and remove the kneading paddle.
d. Form the dough into a neat ball and place in the center of the

The display will show it is actually in Rise mode.
Bake – This bread maker will consistently regulate both baking time and

e. Replace the bread pan into the machine and turn clockwise to lock

temperature according to the recipe you select.
Keep Warm – Allows you to leave the finished bread in the machine to serve

warm for up to 60 minutes. It also helps to keep the crust from becoming
soggy if bread is not removed from the machine immediately after baking.

f. Press START/STOP to resume the program.
NOTE: If you plan to remove the dough and reshape it in another pan for

Some crusts will darken slightly in Keep Warm.

Options:

After Bread Making

1. Light: Press and hold SIZE/ for 3 seconds to turn on the internal

chamber light at any time. The light will automatically turn off after 30
seconds, or press and hold again to turn off.

2. Pause: You can pause the process for up to 10 minutes at any time

by pressing the START/STOP button while the unit is on. The time and
power light will flash while the program is paused. Press START/STOP
to resume the program.

There will be 10 beeps to signal the end of the Baking cycle; the LCD display
window will read 00:00. Your bread will be kept warm for 60 minutes in
the keep warm cycle. There will be one long beep at the end of the Keep
Warm cycle and then unit will shut off. For optimal results, we recommend
removing the loaf as soon as the Baking cycle is complete and letting it cool
on a wire rack.

3. Add-ins: An audible signal of 4 sets of 5 long beeps each will sound to

remind you to add any additional ingredients your recipe requires. To do
so, open the lid and add additional ingredients. Be sure to close the lid,
once finished. This typically occurs during the second knead. The display
will show “add-in” for a few minutes during the Knead cycle in case you
miss the initial beeps.

there will be an audible signal of 10 short beeps before the last Rise
cycle, indicating the point at which the mixing/kneading is complete
(the display will show “paddle” for one minute in case you miss the initial
beeps). At this point in the bread-making process, you have the option
of removing the kneading paddle, and/or re-shaping the dough, though
neither is necessary. To do so:

baking in your conventional oven, this is the time to do so. Be sure to
press and hold the START/STOP button to reset the machine, so it does
not automatically resume the bread-making process after 10 minutes.
