•
Always unplug the appliance after use.
Do not open the lid while the bread-
maker is in operation as this will affect
the quality of the bread, especially its
ability to rise properly. Only open the
lid when the recipe instructs you to add
additional ingredients or once it has
completed baking.
•
Room temperature note:
The breadmaker will work well in a
wide range of temperatures, but there
could be a difference in the loaf size
between a very warm room and a very
cold room. We recommend the room
temperature should be between 15
0
C
and 34
0
C.
Using the timer:
Use the timer when you want the bread to
be ready at a later time, or in the morn-
ing. A maximum time delay of 13 hours
can be set. Do not use this function with
recipes that use perishable ingredients
such as eggs, fresh milk, sour cream, or
cheese.
•
Decide when you want the bread to be
ready and calculate the difference in
time. For example, if you want a loaf at
8am, and it is now 7.30pm, the differ-
ence is 12 1/2 hours.
•
Enter this time by pressing the Time
and Time buttons. The arrows will
move the time up or down in 10 minute
increments. After you have pressed the
“Start/Stop” button, the colon (:) will
flash. If you have selected the wrong
time, press the “Start/Stop” button for
2 seconds. The timer will go back to
the preset time, then repeat the above
2 steps again.
•
The “time delay” function is able to
delay the start time for a maximum
of 13 hours. After the selected time
delay has elapsed the breadmaker will
start with the selected bread making
process.
Beeper:
The beeper sounds:
•
When pressing any button.
•
During the second kneading cycle on
certain programs to indicate that cere-
als, fruit, nuts or any other ingredients
can now be added.
•
When the selected program finishes.
•
When “Keep warm” program finishes.
Power interruption:
After a brief power supply failure:
•
In the event of a brief power failure, or if
the appliance is switched off for a short
time span and on condition that the
baking process was stopped before it
has started to bake, the process may
be restarted by pressing the “Start/
Stop” button. This will allow the appli-
ance to continue the baking process.
•
If it has gone beyond this point, the
process must be started from the very
beginning. The ingredients will have to
be discarded and you will have to start
again with fresh ingredients.
Slicing and storing bread:
•
For the best results place the freshly
baked bread on a wire rack and allow
to cool for 15-30 minutes before slicing.
•
Using an electric knife or a sharp knife
with a serrated blade, slice the bread in
even slices.
•
Store the unused bread in an air tight
plastic container and store at room
temperature for up to three days. If the
weather is hot and humid, store in the
refrigerator overnight.
•
For longer storage (up to one month),
place the bread in an air tight plastic
container in the freezer. If you store the
bread in the refrigerator, leave it out
