Using the timer
Use the timer when you want the bread to be ready at a later time, or in the morning. A maximum of 13
hours can be set. Check if function is available by consulting “Baking cycle times” section. Do not use
this function with recipes that use perishable ingredients such as eggs, fresh milk, sour cream, or cheese.
1.
Decide when you want the bread to be ready and calculate the difference in time between now and
then. For example, if you want a loaf at 8am, and it is now 7:30 p.m., the difference is 12 ½ hours.
2.
Enter this time by pressing “Time Up” and “Time Down” buttons. Arrows will move time up or
down in 10-minute increments. After you have pressed Start, the column (:) will flash.
3.
If you have selected the wrong time press stop for 2 seconds. The timer will go back to the
program time, repeat step 1 and 2.
4.
The timer delay is up to a maximum of 13 hours. This is when the bread will be ready to remove
from the machine.
Beeper
The beeper sounds:
•
when pressing any button;
•
during the second kneading cycle of certain programs to indicate that cereals, fruit, nuts or other
ingredients can be added;
•
when the program finishes;
•
when “keep warm” finishes.
Power interruption
If there is a brief power supply failure for less than 15 minutes, press Start and the program will continue
from the point where it was interrupted.
If the power interruption is for longer than 15 minutes, the process must be started from the very
beginning. The ingredients have to be discarded and you must start again with fresh ingredients. Start
again with fresh ingredients.
Tips and Tricks
For best results place the bread on a wire rack and allow it to cool for 15-30 minutes before slicing. Use
an electric knife or a sharp knife with a serrated blade for even slices.
Store unused bread tightly covered in a plastic bag at room temperature for up to three days. If weather is
hot and humid, store in the refrigerator overnight. For longer storage (up to one month), place bread in a
tightly covered container in the freezer. If you store the bread in the refrigerator, leave it out to bring it to
room temperature before serving.
Since homemade bread has no preservatives it tends to dry out and become stale faster than commercially
made bread. Leftover slightly hardened bread may be cut into 1.3 cm (half inch) or 2.5cm (1 inch) cubes
and used in favorite recipes to make croutons, bread pudding or stuffing.
