INTRODUCTION
Bread plays an important role in our nutrition.
Who has never dreamed of making their own freshly baked bread at home?
Now you can using a breadmaker.
Whether you are a beginner or an expert, all you have to do is add the ingredients and the breadmaker
does the rest. You can easily make bread, bread dough, pizza dough, brioche, pasta and jam effortlessly.
However be aware that to make the most of your breadmaker a certain learning curve is necessary. Take
the time to get to know it and don’t be disappointed if your first attempts aren’t quite perfect. But if you’re
impatient to make your first loaf, one of the recipes in the quick-start paragraph will help you take your
first steps. Note that the texture of the bread you’ll get is more compact than bread from a bakery.
Also, remember that all baked loaves have a hole underneath where the kneading paddle is positioned
while the bread is baking in the pan.
FIRST STEPS
Tips for making good bread
1
Read the instructions carefully and use the recipes: breadmaking using this appliance is not the same as
breadmaking by hand!
2
All the ingredients used must be at room temperature and should be weighed precisely. Measure
liquids with the graduated beaker supplied. Use the double doser supplied to measure
teaspoons on one side and tablespoons on the other. All spoon measures are level and not
heaped. Incorrect measurements give bad results.
3
For successful bread making using the correct ingredients is critical (see page 20 & 21). Use ingredients
before their use-by date and keep them in a cool, dry place.
4
It is important to measure the quantity of flour precisely. That is why you should weigh out flour using a
kitchen scale. Use packets of active dry baker’s yeast. Unless otherwise indicated in the recipe, do not
use baking powder. Once a packet of yeast has been opened, it should be used within 48 hours.
5
To avoid disturbing the preparation while it is rising, we recommend that you place all the ingredients into
the pan at the beginning and do not open the lid during use. Carefully follow the order of ingredients and
quantities indicated in the recipes. First the liquids, then the solids. Yeast should not come
into contact with liquids, sugar or salt.
General order to be followed:
Liquids (butter, oil, eggs, water, milk)
Specific solid ingredients
Salt
Sugar
Flour, first half
Powdered milk
Flour, second half

QUICK-START
To get to know your breadmaker, we suggest trying the BASIC BREAD recipe for your
first loaf.
Remove the bread pan by lifting the handle and
firmly pulling upward.
Then insert the kneading paddle.
>
Place the bread pan in the breadmaker. Press
down on both sides of the pan so that it clips well
to both sides of the breadmaker and engages
the drive. NOTE: If the baking pan is incorrectly
fitted the paddle with not operate.
>
Press the button.
The indicator light comes on facing the stage
the program has reached.
The timer colon flashes. and the timer will count
down. The operating indicator lights up.
When baking has finished a beep sounds.
Put the ingredients in the pan in exactly the order
recommended.
Make sure that all ingredients are weighed with
precision.
Close the lid. Plug in the breadmaker and switch
it on. After you hear the beep, programme 1
settings are displayed by default, i.e. 1000 g,
medium browning.
1H
Unplug the breadmaker at the end of the cooking
or warming cycle. Lift the bread pan out of the
breadmaker by pulling on the handle. Always use
oven gloves as the pan handle is hot, as is the
inside of the lid. Turn out the hot bread and place
it on a rack for at least 1 hour to cool.

USING YOUR BREADMAKER
A default setting is
displayed for each programme.
You will therefore have
to select the desired settings
manually.
SELECTING A PROGRAMME
Choosing a programme triggers a series of steps which are carried out automatically one after another.
The MENU button enables you to choose a certain number of different programmes. The
time corresponding to the programme is displayed. Every time you press the button, the
number on the display panel advances to the next programme, from 1 to 10:
1> basic white bread6 > leavened dough (pizza for example)
2> French bread7 > fresh pasta
3> wholemeal bread8 > yoghurt bread
4> sweet bread9 > jams and compots
5> super fast bread10 > cooking only
1 The Basic Bread programme is used to make
most bread recipes using white wheat flour.
2 The French Bread programme corresponds to
a traditional French crusty white bread recipe.
3 The Wholemeal Bread programme should be
selected when using wholemeal bread flour.
4 The Sweet Bread programme is suited to recipes which contain more fat and sugar.
5 The Super Fast Bread programme is specific to
the SUPER FAST bread recipe (see page 23).
6 The Leavened Dough programme does not bake.
It is a kneading and rising programme for all leavened doughs such as pizza dough, rolls, sweet buns.
7 Programme 7 only kneads.
It is for unleavened pasta, like noodles for example.
8 Yoghurt bread is a speciality with an acidic
taste, with medium browning, 1000 g only.
9 The Jams programme automatically cooks
jams and compots (stewed fruits) in the pan.
10 The Cooking Only programme is used to cook
for 60 min. It can be selected alone and used:
The breadmaker should not be left unattended
when using programme 10.
When the crust has browned to the colour you
want, manually stop the programme by pressing
the button for several seconds.
18
a) with the Leavened Dough programme,
b) to reheat cooked and cooled breads
or to make them crusty,
c) to finish cooking in case of a prolonged
electricity cut during a bread baking cycle.
Page 5
SELECTING THE WEIGHT OF THE BREAD
The bread weight is set by default at 1000 g. This weight is shown for informational purposes. See the
recipes for more details. Programmes 6, 7, 8 and 9 do not have weight settings. Press the button to
set the desired weight of 750 g or 1000 g. The indicator light against the selected setting comes on.
SELECTING THE COLOUR OF THE CRUST (BROWNING)
By default, the colour of the crust is set at MEDIUM.
Programmes 6, 7, 8 and 9 do not have a colour setting.
Three choices are possible: LIGHT/MEDIUM/DARK.
If you want to change the default setting, press the button until the indicator light facing the desired
setting comes on.
SELECTING FAST MODE
Recipes 1, 2, 3 and 4 can be made in FAST mode, thus reducing baking time.
Press on the button 4 times to select FAST mode.
The colour of the crust cannot be set in FAST mode.
START/STOP
Press the button to switch the appliance on. The countdown begins.
To stop the programme or to cancel delayed programming, hold down on the button for 5 seconds.
CYCLES
The indicator light comes on facing the cycle that the breadmaker has reached.
A table (page 24-25) indicates the breakdown of the various cycles for the programme chosen.
Preheating
Used for
programmes
3 and 8 to
let the dough
rise better.
Kneading
>>>> >
For forming
the dough’s
structure so
that it can
rise better.
Rest
Allows
the dough
to rest
to improve
kneading
quality.
Rising
Time during
which the yeast
works to let
the bread rise
and to develop
its aroma.
Baking
Transforms
the dough
into bread
and gives it
a golden,
crusty crust.
Warming
Keeps the bread
warm after baking.
It is recommende that
the bread should be
turned out promptly
after baking, however.
Preheating: only activated for programmes 3 and 8. The kneading paddle does not operate during
this period. This step accelerates yeast activity and thus encourages rising in breads made of flours which
tend not to rise well.
Kneading: the dough is in the 1st or 2nd kneading cycle or in a stirring period between rising cycles.
During this cycle, and for programmes 1, 3, 4 and 8, you can add ingredients: dried fruit or nuts, olives,
bacon pieces, etc.
A beep indicates when you can intervene. See the summary table for preparation times (page 24-25) and
the “extra” column.
This column indicates the time that will be displayed on your appliance’s screen when the beep sounds.
For more precise information on how long before the beep sounds, subtract the “extra” column time from
the total baking time.
For example: “extra” = 2:51 and “total time” = 3:13, the ingredients can be added after 22 min.
Rising: the dough is in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd rising cycle.
Baking: the bread is in the final baking cycle.
Warming: for programmes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 and 10, you can leave your preparation in the appliance.
A one-hour warming cycle automatically follows baking.
The display remains at 0:00 for one hour of warming. The appliance beeps at regular intervals. At the end
of the cycle, it stops automatically after 3 beeps. To stop the warming programme, unplug the appliance.
19
Page 6
DELAYED START PROGRAMME
You can programme the appliance up to start 15 hours in advance to have your preparation ready at the time you want. This function cannot be used on programmes 5,6,7,9,10.
This step comes after selecting the programme, browning level and weight. The programme time is displayed. Calculate the time difference between the moment when you start the programme and the time at
which you want your preparation to be ready.
The machine automatically includes the duration of the programme cycles.
Using the and buttons, display the calculated time ( up and down).
Short presses change the time by intervals of 10 min + a short beep.
Holding the button down gives continuous scrolling of 10-min intervals.
For example, it is 8 pm and you want your bread to be ready for 7 am the next morning. Programme 11:00
using the and buttons.
Press the button. A beep is emitted. The facing indicator light switches on and the timer colon
blinks. The countdown begins. The ON light switches on.
If you make a mistake or want to change the time setting, hold down the button until it makes a beep.
The default time is displayed. Start the operation again.
With the delayed start programme do not use recipes which contain fresh milk, eggs, soured cream,
yoghurt, cheese or fresh fruit as they could spoil or stale overnight.
PRACTICAL ADVICE
If there is a power cut: if, during the cycle, the programme is interrupted by a power cut or
mishandling, the machine has a 7-min protection time during which the settings are saved. The cycle
starts again where it stopped. Beyond that time, the settings are lost.
If you plan to run a second programme bake a second loaf, open the lid and wait 1 hour
before beginning the second preparation.

INGREDIENTS
Fats and oils: fats make the bread softer and tastier. It also stores better and longer. Too much fat
slows down rising. If you use butter, cut it into tiny pieces so that it is distributed evenly throughout the
preparation, or soften it. You can substitute 15g butter for 1 tablespoon of oil. Do not add hot butter. Keep
the fat from coming into contact with the yeast, as fat can prevent yeast from rehydrating. Do not use
low fat spreads or butter substitutes.
Eggs: eggs make the dough richer, improve the colour of the bread and encourage the development of
the soft, white part. If you use eggs, reduce the quantity of liquid you use proportionally. Break the egg and
top up with the liquid until you reach the quantity of liquid indicated in the recipe. Recipes are designed for
one 50 g size egg; if your eggs are bigger, add a little flour; if they are smaller, use less flour.
Milk: recipes use either fresh or powdered milk. If using powdered milk, add the quantity of water stated
in the recipe. It enhances the flavour and improves the keeping qualities of the bread. For recipes using
fresh milk, you can substitute some of it with water but the total volume must equal the quantity stated in
the recipe. Semi-skimmed or skimmed milk is best to avoid bread having a close texture. Milk also has an
emulsifying effect which evens out its airiness, giving the soft, white part a better aspect.
Water: water rehydrates and activates the yeast. It also hydrates the starch in the flour and helps the
soft, white part to form. Water can be totally or partially replaced with milk or other liquids. Use liquids at
room temperature.
Flour: the weight of the flour varies significantly depending on the type of flour used. Depending on the
quality of the flour, baking results may also vary. Keep flour in a hermetically sealed container, as flour
reacts to fluctuations in atmospheric conditions, absorbing moisture or losing it. Use “strong flour”, “bread
flour” or “baker’s flour” rather than standard flour.
20
Page 7
Adding oats, bran, wheat germ, rye or whole grains to the bread dough will give a smaller, heavier loaf of
bread.
Using T55 flour is recommended unless otherwise specified in the recipe.
Sifting the flour also affects the results: the more the flour is whole (i.e. the more of the outer envelope of
the wheat it contains), the less the dough will rise and the denser the bread. You can also find readyto-use bread preparations on the market. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using these
preparations. Usually, the choice of the programme will depend on the preparation used. For example:
Wholemeal bread - Programme 3.
Sugar: use white sugar, brown sugar or honey. Do not use unrefined sugar or lumps. Sugar acts as food
for the yeast, gives the bread its good taste and improves browning of the crust. Artificial sweeteners cannot be substituted for sugar as the yeast will not react with them.
Salt: salt gives taste to food and regulates the yeast’s activity. It should not come into contact with the
yeast. Thanks to salt, the dough is firm, compact and does not rise too quickly. It also improves the
structure of the dough. Use ordinary table salt. Do not use coarse salt or salt substitutes.
Yeast: yeast is what makes the dough rise. Use active dry baker’s yeast in packets. The quality of
yeast can vary, and it does not always rise in the same way. Bread can therefore come out differently
depending on the yeast used.
Old or poorly stored yeast will not work as well as a freshly opened packet of dry yeast.
The proportions indicated are for flaked dried yeast. If you use fresh yeast, multiply the quantity by 3 (in
weight) and dilute the yeast in a small amount of warm water with a little sugar for more effective action.
There are dry yeasts in the form of small granular pellets that have to be rehydrated with a small amount
of warm water with a little sugar. These are used in the same proportions as flaked dry yeast, but we
recommend the latter as it is easier to use.
Additives (olives, bacon pieces, etc.): you can add a personal touch to your recipes by adding
whatever ingredients you want, taking care:
> to add following the beep for additional ingredients, especially those that are fragile such as dried fruit,
> to add the most solid grains (such as linseed or sesame) at the start of the kneading process to facilitate
use of the machine (delayed starting, for example),
> to thoroughly drain moist ingredients (olives),
> to lightly flour fatty ingredients for better blending,
> not to add too large a quantity of additional ingredients, especially cheese, fresh fruit
and fresh vegetables, as they can affect the development of the dough,
> to finely chop nuts as they can cut through the loaf structure and reduce the cooked height.
Bread preparation is very sensitive to temperature and humidity conditions. In case of high heat,
use liquids that are cooler than usual. Likewise, if it is cold, it may be necessary to warm up the water or
milk (never exceeding 35°C). Any liquid used should be tepid, about 20 to 25 C (except for Super Fast
Bread which should be 35 to 40 C max.).
It can also sometimes be useful to check the state of the dough during the second kneading:
it should form an even ball which comes away easily from the walls of the pan.
> if not all of the flour has been blended into the dough, add a little more water,
> if the dough is too wet and sticks to the sides, you may need to add a little flour.
Such corrections should be undertaken very gradually (no more than 1 tablespoon at a time) and wait to
see if there is an improvement before continuing.
A common error is to think that adding more yeast will make the bread rise more. Too much yeast
makes the structure of the bread more fragile and it will rise a lot and then fall while baking. You can determine the state of the dough just before baking by touching it lightly with your fingertips: the dough should
be slightly resistant and the fingerprint should disappear little by little.
