BEFORE FIRST USE

Before rst usage, please read this Instruction Manual thoroughly and keep it handy for future reference. Please pay particular attention to the safety instructions. Carefully unpack the bread machine and remove all packaging materials. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packing, wipe the baking tins, kneading blades and outer surface of the bread machine with a clean, damp cloth. Do not use scouring pads or any abrasives to clean any part of the machine.

ABOUT YOUR BREAD MACHINE

Your new bread machine is able to bake two 1-pound loaves of bread. A special EXPRESS-setting makes it possible to complete the bread-making process in a shorter time. This applies to special recipes only. The Fruit and Nut Beep signals at the time when you can add ingredients, such as fruits, nuts or chips. Instead of being chopped by the kneading blade, the ingredients will maintain their shape and texture. If you use the TIMER to delay baking, you may add all the ingredients at once and bypass the function. However, the fruits, nuts or chips may get somewhat chopped in this case. The colour at the end of the bread crust can be adjusted according to your personal preference. The TIMER enables you to program the end of the baking process. The VIEWING WINDOW allows you to observe the bread-making process. The KEEP WARM function prevents the bread from getting soggy by keeping the nished bread warm up to an hour after the completion of the baking process. This function stops when the unit is turned off or unplugged. The machine has got a POWER LOSS MEMORY, which resumes the interrupted cycle after a shortterm power loss. After unplugging the unit and letting it cool off, remove any spilled ingredients or crumbs from the baking chamber, using a damp sponge or cloth.
IMPORTANT: Always add the ingredients exactly in the order specied in the recipe. To obtain the best results, accurate measuring of ingredients is vital. Do not put larger quantities than recommended into the baking tin, as this may produce poor results and even damage the bread machine.

SETTINGS

BREAD SETTINGS: Your new bread machine has four bread settings (Basic, French, Wheat, Sweet) and two time modes (Normal [default setting] and Express). Each bread setting is described below. The baking times in the Normal time mode vary from 2:00 to 3:30 hours, according to the selected setting or setting combination. In the Express time mode, the baking times range between 0:45 and 1:50 hours. For the exact setting times we refer you to the Bread Machine Cycle Times schedule. The Normal time will give you the best results. Only specially designed recipes are appropriate for the Express mode. Heavy ours and other heavy ingredients are not suitable for this setting. It is possible to make two different types of bread simultaneously, to make the same type of bread in both baking tins or to make only one loaf of bread. BASIC The basic settings are used for breads that primarily consist of white our, although some recipes may include small amounts of whole wheat our. These settings have the minimum number of rising cycles and the shortest overall operating times. Therefore, loaves will be slightly denser than French or Sweet breads. Choose from Basic settings and select the desired crust colour. FRENCH Traditionally, French bread has a crispier crust and lighter texture than Basic bread. Recipes for this kind of bread usually do not include butter, margarine or milk. WHEAT In this setting you can make bread with signicant amounts of heavier types of wheat requiring a longer knead and rise cycle, such as whole wheat, rye our, oats or bran. Generally, whole wheat and multi-grain breads are shorter and denser than basic, French or sweet breads. SWEET Use this setting for recipes in which fruit juice, additional sugar or added sweet ingredients such as coconut akes, raisins, dried fruit or chocolate are used. Baking temperature in this setting is reduced and a longer rise cycle gives the loaf a light, airy texture.

USING YOUR BREAD MACHINE

After a setting or setting combination has been selected, your new bread machine will automatically move through its bread making process down to its completion. Thanks to the automatic TIMER you can have the machine make bread while you are asleep or otherwise occupied. (See Using the TIMER.) The recipes included in this booklet have been thoroughly tested so as to ensure the best results. They have been prepared by home economists especially for these bread machines and may not lead to acceptable results with other bread machines. FOR ALL BREAD SETTINGS, FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Open the lid and remove the baking tin by pulling it straight upwards. It is important to remove the baking tin from the unit before putting any ingredients into it. This will prevent accidentally spilling ingredients into the baking chamber. Warning: Place the bread machine on a level, stable and safe surface. Ingredients spilled into the baking chamber can cause re when ignited by the heating element. 6
2. Attach the kneading blades onto the shafts inside the baking tins by lining up the at side of the blade with the at side on the shaft. Push the blade rmly onto the shaft. Attention: Be sure to x the kneading blade rmly to its place to prevent it from loosening during its operation, which might have a detrimental effect on the kneading or mixing process. Be sure the shaft is clean of any residue (i. e. dough). This will keep the kneading blade rmly xed in its place and prevent it from sticking to the shaft. 3. Select a recipe from the recipe section of this booklet and follow these instructions: Measure the ingredients carefully and accurately. To measure liquids, use a see-through liquid measuring cup and check the measurement at eye level. When measuring dry ingredients, use a standard dry measuring cup and level the ingredients with a straight-edge knife. Even a slightly inaccurate measurement can make a difference in results. Use standard measuring spoons and level off with a straight-edge knife. (For further information see Measuring Your Ingredients.) Always add the ingredients to the baking tin in the specied order. Always add yeast last. Be sure that the yeast does not come into touch with liquid ingredients.
Attention: Be careful not to mix the yeast with any wet ingredients, especially when using the TIMER feature. Otherwise, the bread may no not rise properly.After 5 minutes of kneading, open the lid of the bread machine and check the dough consistency. The dough should form a soft, sticky ball. If it is too dry, add liquid. If it is too wet, add our (1/2 to 1 tablespoon at a time) 4. Place the baking tin into the unit and push it down until you hear it click rmly into its place. Special note: If one of the baking tins is not xed properly, the blade will not operate. 5. Close the lid. Connect the plug with a 220 240-volt-rated AC-outlet. You will hear a beep. The display will show the default settings of Basic & Basic in its Normal time mode (2:10) for both baking tins. 6. Choose the desired setting by pressing the MENU button. Each time MENU is pressed you will hear a beep and the number in the display window will advance to the next cycle. There are 10 preset combinations. If no selection is made, the default setting is BASIC & BASIC. Setting combinations: 7 Basic Basic Basic Basic French French French Basic Wheat Sweet French French Sweet Wheat 7

8 Wheat 9 Wheat 10 Sweet

Wheat Sweet Sweet
7. Press the COLOUR button to choose the crust colour. When you press the button you will hear a beep and the display window will show the colour you selected. Alternatively, you can also select the Express mode with this button. Note: At this point, you can press the TIMER button to delay the completing of the baking process for up to 13 hours For further details see Using the Timer. 8. Press the START/STOP button to start the chosen setting. The remaining time will count down in one-minute intervals. At the end of the baking time a beep will sound ve times. Bread-making Tip: After 5 minutes of kneading, open the lid of the unit and check the dough consistency. The dough should form a soft, sticky ball. If it is too dry, add liquid. If it is too wet, add our (1/2 to 1 tablespoon at a time). 9. The bread machine is designed with a Keep Warm feature, which automatically begins functioning as soon as the baking time has ended. This will continue for up to 60 minutes after the end of the baking process. During this time, the system will circulate hot air to keep the bread warm. You can turn off the Keep Warm feature before the end of the 60 minutes. Simply press the START/STOP button and keep it pressed until you hear a beep. UNPLUG THE UNIT AFTER ITS USE! Never leave the unit plugged in when not in use. 10. The bread machine has a convenient viewing window so that you may observe the progress of the bread as the bread-making process goes through its stages. Occasionally, some moisture may form on the window during the bread-making process. You may open the lid to look into the unit during the mixing and kneading stages. HOWEVER, DO NOT OPEN THE LID DURING THE BAKING CYCLE, as this may cause the bread to collapse. Warning: To avoid damaging the bread machine, do not put any objects upon it. 11. To remove the baking tins from the unit, use pot holders or oven gloves and pull the tins upwards. Turn the tins upside down and shake the bread out onto a wire cooling rack. Do not use any metal utensil to remove the bread, as they may scratch the non-stick surface. If you have difculty removing the bread from the baking tin, use a plastic spatula or something similar to loosen the loaf. Turn the tin over and shake the loaf out. Before slicing the bread, allow it to cool off. See Slicing and Storing Bread. If the kneading blade sticks to the shafts at the bottom of the baking tin, put hot water into the tin for the kneading blade to loosen. If the kneading blade remains in the bottom of the bread, use the end of a plastic spoon or other non-metal utensil to remove it. Do not use a knife or any other sharp metal object as it will scratch the non-stick coating. Attention: Before slicing the bread, always make sure that the kneading blade is removed from the loaf. Important: To prevent the blade from sticking to the shaft, put warm water into the tin immediately after removing the bread. 12. In case of overheating of the unit, the DISPLAY WINDOW will show E 01, if the temperature is too low, E 00 will show up. When either of these error messages is displayed, the bread machine will not function until it has either cooled off or warmed up. Caution: Do not try to make another loaf until the bread machine has cooled down or warmed up.

USING THE TIMER

Use the TIMER button to delay the completion of the bread-making process. You can set the machine to start up to almost 13 hours later. TO SET THE TIMER, FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS: Note: First, follow the steps 1 through to 7 in Using Your Bread Machine. Do not use the TIMER with recipes that call for perishable ingredients, such as eggs, fresh milk, sour cream or cheese. 1. Determine the time you want to have the bread nished. For example: It is 7:30 p.m. and you want the bread to be nished at 08:00 a.m. next morning. After selecting the correct setting according to the recipe, keep the TIMER button pressed until 12:30 appears in the display, as the time until the end of the baking process amounts to 12 hours and 30 minutes. 2. There is no need to calculate the difference between the setting time and the total hours up to the end of the bread-making process. The machine will automatically adjust to include the setting time. to go back. If you pass the desired time, simply press 3. After setting the desired time, press START. The colon (:) in the display will ash to indicate that the Timer has been set, and the countdown will begin. The TIMER will count down the remaining period in one-minute intervals. When the TIMER reaches 0:00, the bread-making process will have nished and the beeper will sound.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Caution: Before you clean the unit, always disconnect the plug from the power supply and allow the bread machine to cool off. Protect the unit from splashes or any liquid so as to avoid the danger of causing damage and/or electric shock. To ensure best performance and maintenance of the bread machine, clean it after each use as follows: OUTER BODY, LID, BAKING CHAMBER Wipe the lid and outer body of the unit with a damp cloth or slightly damp sponge. Use a damp sponge or cloth to wipe out any our, crumbs or other materials from the baking chamber. Dry the unit thoroughly. BAKING TINS AND KNEADING BLADES: The baking tins and kneading blades have non-stick surfaces. Do not use any hard cleansers, abrasive materials or utensils that may scratch the surfaces. In course of time, the non-stick surface may change its appearance due to moisture and steam. This is normal and has no adverse effect on its use or quality. Before cleaning the unit, remove the baking tins and kneading blades from the baking chamber. Wipe the outside of each baking tin with a damp cloth. Never immerse the baking tin into water or other liquids. Wash the inside of the baking tin with warm, soapy water. If the kneading blade gets stuck, ll the baking tin with hot water and wait for 30 minutes so that it loosens and can be removed easily. Never use any of the following to clean your bread machine: Paint thinner Benzine Steel wood pads Polishing powder Chemical dustcloths 9

Caution: Do not clean any part(s) of the bread machine in a dishwasher! STORING THE UNIT Before storing the unit, be sure to dry all parts of it, including the viewing window. Close the lid, and do not place any items upon the machine. TROUBLESHOOTING Specic questions about the functions of the bread machine as well as problems with ingredients or recipe are addressed under Questions and Answers / Troubleshooting. To obtain optimal baking results allow the unit to cool down completely before beginning to bake a second time. You can accelerate the cooling process by opening the lid and removing the baking tins.
HELPFUL INFORMATION ABOUT INGREDIENTS
IMPORTANT NOTE ON FLOURS Flours, while similar in appearance, can be very different by virtue of how they were grown, milled, stored, etc. To obtain the best baking results, you may have to experiment with different types of our. The information under Recipe Tips will be helpful to you. YEAST Yeast, through a fermentation process, causes bread to rise by releasing carbon dioxide. Three different types of yeast are available: Fresh, dried and fast-rising yeast. To obtain the best results, use traditional dried yeast. However, fast-rising yeast can also be used in smaller amounts. Note: The recipes in this manual were prepared using traditional dried yeast. Always store yeast in a refrigerator to keep it fresh, as heat will spoil it. Ensure that your yeast is fresh by checking its expiry date. Once a package or jar of yeast has been opened, it is important that the remaining contents will be immediately resealed and refrigerated for future use. By the following test you can nd out whether or not your yeast is still usable: 1. Place one cup of lukewarm water (43 - 46C) into a liquid measuring cup. 2. Stir one teaspoon of sugar into the water and then sprinkle two teaspoons of yeast over the surface. 3. Place the cup in a warm environment and leave it there for ten minutes. 4. The mixture should foam and rise to the 1-cup mark. If this does not occur, discard the yeast. Conversion Chart for Fast-Rising Yeast 1 teaspoon active dried yeast 1 1/2 teaspoon active dried yeast 2 1/4 teaspoon active dried yeast 3 teaspoon active dried yeast SUGAR Sugar has an immense inuence on the colour and avour of bread. Recipes in this manual calling for sugar require granulated sugar. Do not used icing sugar unless otherwise indicated. Articial sweeteners cannot be used as a substitute for sugar, as the yeast will not react properly with them. SALT Salt is necessary to balance the avour of breads and cakes as well as for their crust colour. Salt limits the growth of yeast. Therefore do not exceed the amount of salt specied in the recipes. For dietary 10 = 3/4 teaspoons fast-rising yeast = 1 teaspoons fast-rising yeast = 1 1/2 teaspoons fast-rising yeast = 2 teaspoons fast-rising yeast

reasons, salt may be left out. However, in this case the bread may rise higher than it normally does. LIQUIDS Liquids, such as milk, water, or a combination of powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. While milk improves the avour of the bread, it also gives it a velvety texture and softens its crust, water alone produces a crispier crust. Some recipes call for juice (orange, apple, etc.) to be added as a avour enhancer. EGGS Eggs add richness and velvety texture to bread doughs and cakes. Use large-size eggs with these recipes. FATS: SHORTENING, BUTTER, OIL Shortening, butter and oil shorten or tenderize the texture of yeast breads. French bread owes its unique crust and texture to the lack of fat in the ingredients used. However, breads containing fat stay fresh longer. If butter is used directly from the refrigerator, it should be cut into small pieces for easier blending during the kneading cycle. BAKING POWDER Baking powder is a leavening agent used in quick breads and cakes. This type of leavening agent does not require a rising time before baking, as the chemical reaction works when liquid ingredients are added BAKING SODA Baking soda is another leavening agent not to be confused with or substituted for baking powder. It also does not require rising time before baking, as the chemical reaction works during the baking process. MEASURING YOUR INGREDIENTS You nd enclosed the following measuring instruments that will help you measure the ingredients easily: 1 measuring cup with the measuring units ml, oz and cup 1 big measuring spoon, equal to 1 tablespoon 1 small measuring spoon, equal to 1 teaspoon Place the cup on a horizontal at surface while measuring the ingredients. The ingredients level must be aligned to the mark of measurement. It is very important to measure each ingredient accurately when baking with your bread machine. Faulty measurements even if small can cause poor baking results. The ingredients must also be added in the order specied in each recipe. When measuring dry ingredients make sure the measuring cup is DRY. When measuring with the measuring spoons, measurements must be level, not heaped. You can use a knife to level off. Do not scoop or tap a measuring cup as this will pack the ingredients.

RECIPE TIPS

The recipes included with this manual are tailored especially to this bread machine. To obtain the best baking results, it is extremely important not no exceed the amounts of our specied in each of the recipes. When trying your own recipes, use the recipes in this manual as a guide for converting proportions from your recipe to your bread machine. 11

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS / TROUBLESHOOTING
Question What should I do if the kneading blade comes out with the bread? Answer Remove it with a crochet hook or a sandwich pick before slicing the bread. Since the blade can be separated from the tin, the remaining of the kneading blade is not due to a failure of the appliance.
Why does my bread sometimes have some our on the side crust?
Your dough might be too dry. Next time, check your recipe and measuring. You may need to add more liquid, 1/2 to 1 tablespoon at a time. You can simply trim off that portion of the outer crust. The kneading blade or baking tin may not be inserted properly. Make sure the tin has clicked into its place. See Cycle Times Chart. The milk will get spoiled if it is left in the machine too long. Perishable ingredients, such as eggs and milk, should never be used when working with the timer feature. If the power supply failure does not last longer than approximately 10 minutes, the bread machine resumes its cycle at the stage in which the interruption took place. This allows the bread machine to mix the ingredients in the most efcient manner possible. When using the timer, it also keeps the yeast from combining with the liquid before the dough is mixed. The machine must start operating several hours before the bread will be ready. So these sounds are made by the motor when kneading the dough. It is a normal operation, not a malfunction. Your bread machine makes 1-pound loaves of bread. If the kneading blade gets stuck, pour hot water into the baking tin. Rotate the kneading blade to remove any incrustrations that may have devloped underneath. Please refer to the rating label on the machine. No. The baking tins and kneading blades must be washed by hand. Do not immerse the tins into water. The keep warm cycle will keep it warm and thus prevent it from becoming soggy for 1 hour. If the bread is left in the tin longer than 1 hour, it may start to become soggy.

Why does the appliance fail to mix up the dough? I can hear the motor running. How long does it take to make bread? Why cant I use the timer when baking with fresh milk?
What will happen if there is power supply failure in the middle of a cycle?
Why do I have to add the ingredients in a certain order?
When setting the timer for the morning, why does the machine make sounds late at night?
The bread machine makes loafs of what size? The kneading blade is stuck in the baking tin after baking. How do I get it out?
What is the wattage of the appliance? Can I clean the baking tins in the dishwasher?
What will happen if I leave the nished bread in the baking tin?
Why did the dough only partially mix?
Check to make sure that the kneading blades and baking tins are inserted properly. Also check the dough consistency. After 5 minutes of kneading, check the dough. If it is too dry, add liquid, if it is too moist, add our. Only add 1/2 to 1 tablespoon at a time. The yeast might have passed the expiry date. Possibly no yeast was added at all. Check the condition of the yeast. The Fruit & Nuts beep signals when to add raisins, nuts, etc. If it is more convenient for you to add them at the start, you will still have acceptable results. However, the added ingredients may be chopped during the kneading process. Humidity may affect the dough. After 5 minutes of kneading, check the dough. If it appears too moist, add more our, 1/2 to 1 tablespoon at a time. To obtain the best results, take the baked bread out of the tin soon after the end of the baking process. This can be caused by using too much yeast.
Why didnt the bread rise?
How will I know when to add fruits and nuts to the bread?
My baked bread is too moist. What can I do?
Why do I get air bubbles at the top of the bread?
When using raisins, the bread machine crushes them. How can I avoid this?
