if any part is damaged.
• Make sure the appliance is disconnected from the power supply. Wash the
kneading blades, measuring spoon and measuring cup with a soft cloth
or sponge in warm water and a little washing-up detergent to remove any
dust from transport. Do not use any abrasives in order not to damage the
non-stick coating. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly.

Bread-making programs
The table on this page spread lists all 13 programs. For options available under
each program, please see the table on page 18.
Program Bread type (product)
1
Basic
This most commonly used program is suitable for baking white
(wheat) bread. It is the default program that is automatically
selected when the machine is switched on.
2
French
This program is for typical French-style bread made with white,
protein-rich our, with a crisp crust and soft, slightly chewy
interior.
3
Wholemeal
This program is for heavier wholemeal or wholegrain bread.
It includes a special ‘hold/preheat’ time for softening grains.
Wholemeal loaves are generally smaller and more compact.
4
Sweet
On this setting, the baking time and temperature are adjusted for
sweeter bread or fruit loaves with higher fat and sugar contents.
5
Gluten-free
Use this program for baking gluten-free bread in the bread maker.
Take particular care with your recipe to ensure all ingredients are
gluten-free. When using a commercially prepared gluten-free
bread-baking mix, follow the instructions on the packet.
• Ensure that the our and yeast are all gluten-free.
• Xanthan gum (food additive number 415) and Guar gum (415)
act as substitutes for gluten and give structure to the dough
so it can rise. These ingredients are generally available from
health food stores.
• Tapioca our is gluten-free and often used as a thickening
agent.
IMPORTANT: For more information on the suitability and
availability of gluten-free ingredients, contact the Coeliac
Society in your area, or consult a health professional for advice.
We assume no responsibility for the suitability of any particular
recipes or ingredients for people with special dietary needs.
6
Rye
This program is suitable for bread with a high rye content. It
includes a special ‘hold/preheat’ time for softening grains.
Loaves with high rye content are generally smaller and more
compact.

Program Bread type (product)
7
Quick
This is a quick (80 minute) program with fewer stages and
reduced rising and rest times. This makes the bread slightly
rmer and more compact.
8
Italian
This is a program for light, Italian-style bread, which often
contains olive oil and herbs such as oregano or thyme.
9
Dough
This program is for kneading yeast dough only (no baking). Use
it to knead yeast dough that you want to shape yourself by
hand and bake in an oven, or for pizza crusts, pastry or bread
rolls. The dough is heated so that it can rise, but it will not be
baked. After the kneading process you can bake the dough in a
traditional or pizza oven.
10
Pasta
dough
This program is similar to the dough program, but it is specially
designed for preparing yeast-free dough for pasta, wafes,
biscuits or pies. It simply mixes and kneads the dough; there is
no baking involved. When the dough is ready, take it out of the
bread maker and continue processing as appropriate.
11
Milk bread
This program is suitable for baking bread made with milk or
dairy products.
12
Jam
Use this program for processing fresh fruit or making marmalade
or jam. Place all ingredients in the bread pan and follow the
general usage instructions to start cooking jam. At the end of
the program, remove the pan wearing oven mitts. Carefully pour
the hot processed fruit into a heat resistant and refrigerator
safe container, leaving 1cm space at the top. Cover tightly. The
jam will thicken upon cooling. Do not exceed any the quantities
indicated to avoid the jam boiling over and ending up in the
baking chamber.
13
Bake only
This program is for baking bread from a dough prepared
manually, or for extending the baking time by up to an hour, to
achieve a darker, crispier crust. There is no mixing or kneading
involved. The baking time for this program is one hour, and the
program can be used several times in a row.
If the dough is baked before the end of the set time, simply
press the START/STOP button to stop the baking process.

Getting Started (Cont.)
Basic bread-making ingredients
Flour
Flour is the main ingredient of bread and releases gluten, which allows the
bread to rise and gives substance to the bread. Always check the packaging
to see if the our is suited for baking bread. Also make sure to always weigh
the correct amount of our required in your recipe as the weight of our can
vary signicantly from type to type.
NOTE: Do not use self-raising our unless stated in your recipe.
Yeast
Yeast allows the dough to rise and makes the bread light and easy to digest.
We recommend using dry yeast (ready-to-use) as this type has a longer shelf
life and tends to produce more consistent results than fresh yeast. But make
sure to check the use-by date, as stale yeast may prevent the rising process.
Salt
Salt enriches the our and reinforces the gluten in the our for a better rising
process. Make sure to measure salt quantities accurately, as adding too
much, or omitting it altogether, will not only spoil the taste of your bread but
also affect the rising process.
Butter/oil
Butter, margarine or oil improve the taste of the bread and make it softer.
Make sure any solid fats are at room temperature, and cut into chunks.
Sugar
Sugar provides nutrition for the yeast and is essential for the rising process.
You can use rened sugar or brown sugar, but also honey or syrup. Sugar
also adds sweetness to the taste of the bread and helps brown the crust.
Water
We recommend using tap water, at room temperature. If it is too cold, the
yeast activation will not start, and if it is too warm, the yeast activation
will process too quickly. (Warmer water may only be used for the 'Quick’
program.)
Milk and milk powder
Milk and other dairy products enhance the taste and nutritional value of the
bread and produce a nice brown crust. If substituting fresh milk for water,
deduct the quantity of milk from the amount of water mentioned in the recipe.
IMPORTANT!
Do not use milk, other dairy products, eggs or meat when using the delayed
start timer. These ingredients must be kept refrigerated to ensure food safety.
