Prima ABM 9 instruction manual HOW to USE the Timer

The most common use for the timer is to make a loaf overnight so it will be ready in the morning. Many people also programme the timer so the loaf is ready when they get home from work. However you use the timer, it’s a lot easier to set than most video recorders!

Once you have selected your desired programme, simply press the TIMER (up) button on the control panel and the figure on the display will increase by 10 minutes. This way you can delay the end of the programme to suit your requirements. The important thing to remember is that whatever the display reads is the time from pressing START to when the loaf will be ready.

For example: After selecting the required programme, if you keep pressing the TIMER button until the display reads 5:00 then press START it will be 5 hours before the loaf is ready. If you press the TIMER (up) button some more and the display reads 8:10 then (you’ve guessed it) the loaf will be ready in 8 hours and 10 minutes.

To save wear & tear on your index finger you can press & hold the TIMER (up/down) buttons to scroll quickly to your desired setting.

NOTES:

•The maximum time you can select is 13:00.

•Once you have pressed START you cannot alter the timer.

•If you need to reset the timer press START/STOP button for 3 seconds and the machine will reset, after which you can re-select your programme and delayed time accordingly. NB. You should not do this if the process is past the first kneading.

•Do not use perishable ingredients like milk or eggs when using the delay timer as these will spoil whilst sitting in the bread pan.

•You cannot reduce the delayed time to less than the process time.
