PARTS AND FEATURES

EXTRA BAKE- You can manualiy adjust the amount of time for any baking by using the plus and minus buttons to change the time in 10 minute increments. This must be done at the beginning, before the programmed baking begins,

FAST BAKE - The Fast Bake cycle goes through kneading, rising and baking in approximately an hour. Mix-ins must be added at the very beginning of the cycle with other basic ingredients. This cycle comes in handy when you cannot plan ahead for bread making. The kneading and rising of this cycle is suitable for white bread

recipes. Bring all ingredients to room temp and liquids to 100 ‘^F, The texture and rise of the bread is greatly improved by adding vital wheat gluten to the mixture - in a pinch it can be left out, but keep it on hand for Fast Bake Loaves.

KEEP WARM FUNCTION - After the bread has baked, the Bread Maker will go into a Keep Warm mode to keep the bread warm and to ensure that the crust does not become too soft. Also, items baked using the Fast Bake setting benefit from this step. This function lasts for up to 60 minutes.

PREPARING YOUR BREAD MAKER i

BEFORE FIRST USE;

Before using your Bread Maker, remove any packing material, plastic, labels, stickers or tags that may be attached to the appliance. Clean the appliance thoroughly:

1.Wash the bread pan, kneading blade, measuring cup and measuring spoon in hot. soapy water.

2.Rinse and dry thoroughly.

3.Do not use a dishwasher to clean bread pan. Dishwashing can damage the non-stick properlies of the bread pan, allowing bread to stick during baking.

3.DO NOT IMMERSE BREAD MAKER IN WATER.

4.The exterior of the Bread Maker can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth and warm soapy water. Dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive materials or cleaners.

5.The Oven Chamber can be cleaned with a damp cloth and dried thoroughly. Only clean oven chamber when it is cool.

Place Bread Maker on a dry, flat, level surface such as a countertop or table. Leave plenty of room around unit for air circulation. Make sure you have enough room above unit to open the lid.

OPERATING THE BREAD MAKER

1.Lift out the bread pan by pulling up on its handle.

2.Fit the kneading blade (see Fig. 4) onto the drive shaft in the bottom of the bread pan.

3.Pour the water, or other liquid called for as the first item in the recipe, into the bread pan.

4.Unless otherwise instructed, add the other ingredients at room temperature to the pan in the order listed in the recipe. Yeast should always go in last. Make a small indentation with your finger in the top of the dry ingredients and add the yeast to the indentation. Do not let the yeast touch the liquid below.

5.Make sure all ingredients are measured and weighed accurately. Use the see-through measuring cup included for liquids, and measure at eye level. For dry ingredients, use

a measuring cup that can be leveled off with the straight edge of a knife or metal spatula. A measuring spoon is also included, for tablespoon or teaspoon measures. Level off dry ingredients. Inaccurate measurements will produce poor results.

6.Insert the bread pan into the oven chamber and push down firmly until it fits into the drive coupling in the bottom of oven chamber, and dicks into the two clips on each side of bread pan handle. If pan is not inserted correctly, the kneading blade cannot work properly.

7.Lower the bread pan handle and close the Lid. Plug in and switch On. The unit will beep and the program default setting of 1 v/ill display, then the cook time for Program 1, 3:15(3 hr,s. 15 min.).
