Using the timer
The breadmaker is equipped with a timer to
enable baking to start at a predetermined
time. To use the timer, follow the instructions
‘To bake a loaf of bread using one of the
standard settings’ upto and including Step 5.
Set the timer as follows:
Press
S
to select the time (in hours and
minutes) until the bread will be required. The
time advances in 1-minute increments. If you
hold down either button, the numbers
advance quickly. If you go past the desired
hours and minutes, simply press
T
to go
backwards in 1-minute increments.
Example:
If the time is now 8:00 PM and you
want the bread to be ready at 7.00
AM, that is 11 hours from now, press
S
until 11:00 appears on the
display, and then press the
Start
button.
Press the
Start
button. The timer
indicator on the panel will light up
and the time will begin counting
down. The breadmaker will
automatically start mixing at
precisely the right moment and you
will have hot, baked bread at the
selected time.
If you forget to press the Start
button, the timer will not work.
Important
Do not use fresh milk, eggs or fruit and
vegetable purees when using the timer as they
could spoil.
Always add carefully-measured ingredients in
the correct sequence: liquids, salt, dry
ingredients and yeast. The yeast must always
be kept away from the liquid and the salt
when using the timer.
If you are using the breadmaker in hot or
humid weather with a preset time greater
than 2 hours, there is a danger of the bread
rising too quickly. To prevent this, reduce the
liquid by one or two tablespoons, increase the
salt 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoons and reduce the
sugar by up to a 1/2.
