2. HOW TO MEASURE 

Measuring ingredients the right way with the correct measuring cups and spoons is not important when making bread.  See measuring section for 
more information. 

 
 

 

REMEMBER TO: 

 

Always measure liquid ingredients in see-through measuring cup with graduated markings.  

Liquid should just reach marking on cup at “eye-level”, not above or below.  For easier measuring, set 
cup on inside of top kitchen cabinet.

 

 

Always 

use liquids at the correct temperature, lukewarm, between 75-85

°

F.

 

 

Always spoon dry ingredients like bread flour into solid, nesting type measuring cups, 

then level 

off with table knife.

 

 

Never scoop measuring cups into dry ingredients as this will pack down the ingredients, 

causing 

the dough to be dry and the loaf to be short.

 

 

Always use set of measuring spoons to measure smaller quantities of dry and liquid ingredients, 

measuring level, not rounded or heaping.

basic white-large 1-1/2 lb.

, press 

select

 button until “2” appears in display.  If 

using 

one hour bread cycle, press select button until 

“12

” 

appears in display. 

2. Press 

start

 button to turn machine on.  Time to make bread will appear in display: 2:50 for (2) setting; 0:59 for (12) setting.  Minutes will begin to

OTHER TIPS TO KEEP IN MIND WHEN USING YOUR BREAD MAKER 
 

1. CAUTION:

 To prevent personal injury, 

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 stop button down for four (4) seconds or until alert sounds and SEL flashes in display.

 

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 four 

(4) inches away from walls, cabinets and other appliances, especially heating and cooling appliances which 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 bearing that turns the knead bar on the bottom of the pan.  

See “CLEAN AFTER EACH USE” section in this booklet on page 12 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. CAUTION:

 To prevent personal injury, 

AVOID

 touching bread maker during the bake cycle as exterior surfaces become hot. 

ALWAYS

 use 

oven mitts when removing and handling the bread pan after baking.

 

6. FOLLOW

 instructions as given for best results. 

THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP IN SUCCESSFUL BREAD MAKING IS TO MEASURE 

INGREDIENTS ACCURATELY.  

See “MEASURING INGREDIENTS ACCURATLEY” section in this booklet on page 6.
