the machine for a full cycle. The machine will stop by itself when the cycle is complete. A
cycle varies in speed and length; see the Instructions on page 16 for a complete description
of the range of each PRE-SET button. Each button can be reprogrammed to any of the 34
available recipes. See pages 8-11 for information on Custom Programming these six
buttons. Due to the difference of recipes, your results may vary.
