OTHER TIPS TO KEEP IN MIND WHEN USING YOUR BREAD MAKER
1.
DO NOT REMOVE
the bread pan or touch any moving parts when bread maker is in operation. If you need to stop the bread
maker during operation, hold the
start/stop
button down for 4 seconds or until the red
ON
light goes out.
2 BE SURE
to allow adequate ventilation around the bread maker when it is in operation. Keep it out of drafts and direct sunlight and
at least 4 inches away from walls, cabinets and other appliances, especially heating and cooling appliances which can interfere with
the internal bread maker temperatures and affect the loaf of bread being prepared.
3.
DO NOT IMMERSE
base of bread pan in water or other liquid as this can damage the bearings on the bottom of the pan that turns
the knead bars. See “Clean After Each Use” section for further details.
4.
ALWAYS
place bread maker on a DRY, STABLE, heatproof countertop or table during use. Since the bread maker contains a
motor, some vibration occurs during the knead cycle.
5.
AVOID
touching bread maker during the bake cycle as exterior surfaces become hot. ALWAYS use potholders when removing
and handling the bread pan after baking.
6.
FOLLOW
instructions as given for best results.
THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP IN BREAD MAKING IS TO MEASURE
INGREDIENTS ACCURATELY
. See “MEASURING INGREDIENTS ACCURATLEY” section in this booklet.
7.
DO NOT EXCEED
the ingredient capacity of the bread maker. See “Know Your Ingredients” section in this booklet. Use only
fresh ingredients.
8.
ALWAYS ADD INGREDIENTS
in the order listed in the recipes. Add liquid ingredients to the bread pan first, the butter or
margarine next, followed by the dry ingredients and finally the yeast in the very center. Before adding the yeast, ALWAYS tap the
pan to settle the dry ingredients, then level off the ingredients, pushing into the corners to prevent liquid from seeping up. Then add
the yeast to the very center of the pan, making a slight well in the center of the dry ingredients. This sequence is very important,
especially when using the delay start timer of your bread maker to prevent over fermentation of the yeast.

.
IN THE EVENT OF A POWER OUTAGE
, the bread maker will turn off and automatically resume where it left off in the cycle if
power is restored within 5 to 10 seconds. If power is not restored in 5 to 10 seconds, the bread maker will remain off when power is
restored. If this occurs, you will need to remove the contents from the bread pan and start over using fresh ingredients. The red ON
light will remain off and the display will reset to the default setting; basic/specialty, medium crust, 1½ lb. loaf, with 3:30 in display.
10.
DO NOT COVER
bread maker with anything during operation as this can cause malfunction.
11.
DO NOT TOUCH
control panel buttons after bread maker has been turned ON as this will interrupt the cycle. Turn bread maker
OFF after completion of cycle.
12.
DO NOT LEAVE
bread make plugged into electrical outlet when not in use to prevent it from being accidentally turned
ON
.
KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS
Although bread making seems very basic, it is a science and the proportions of ingredients are critical. Read the following information
to better understand the importance each ingredient plays in the bread making process. Also, always make sure your ingredients are
fresh.
•
FLOUR
is the main ingredient in making bread. It provides structure and food for the yeast. Several different types of flour
can be used in your bread maker, but
DO NOT USE
, cake flour or self-rising flour, as poor results will be obtained.
•
BREAD FLOUR
if available, is the preferred flour to use in your bread maker as it contains more gluten-forming proteins
than all-purpose flour and will provide tall, well-formed loaves with good structure. Several different brands of bread flour may
be available for use in your bread maker.
•
ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
may also be used in your bread maker if bread flour is not available. Slightly shorter loaves of
bread may be obtained when using all-purpose flour. Even though all-purpose flour may be presifted, you may wish to sift it
yourself before measuring for best results.
