How To Use Your Breadmaker
5 Close the lid and plug into an outlet (120 volt). An ARROW will come up in the display window
indicating BASIC bread and showing two icons— one for loaf size (2.0 or 1.5 lbs.) and one for Crust Color (Light or Dark). You will also see 12 a.m. flashing in the display window. If you wish to use the TIMER to delay baking, you will first have to set the correct time of day. However, if you want to start the breadmaking operation now, it is not necessary to set the CLOCK.
6 To bake a Basic loaf of bread with a Light Crust, simply press the START/RESET Button.
However, you can choose a dif- ferent setting for your recipe by pressing the MENU button on
the pad. Each time you press
MENU, the arrow in the display
window will point to
the next selection (i.e. RAPID bake, SWEET bread, etc.) If you are using a recipe that
calls for the BASIC,
RAPID bake, SWEET or FRENCH
bread setting, choose a crust
color by pressing the CRUST but-
ton to select LIGHT or DARK.
7 Press the
START/RESET Button once until it
beeps and the red “operation” indicator light comes on. The flashing 12:00 a.m. will be
replaced by the baking time for
that setting, for example, 3:50, if
you chose a recipe for
the BASIC bread set- ting (regardless of whether you chose LIGHT or DARK crust).
It will count down the remaining time in
8 This Breadmaker is designed with a KeepWarm function that automatically begins when baking is complete. The red “operation” light will continue
to flash for up to 60 minutes after baking is com- plete and will keep bread warm during that time. At the end of the hour, the KeepWarm cycle will end and the light will remain on constantly, indicating the unit is still plugged in. The bread should then be removed as soon as possible to avoid getting soggy. You may remove the Baking Pan any time during the KeepWarm cycle. To turn off the KeepWarm feature before the 60 minutes are up, simply press the START/RESET button and hold it until the dis- play time clears.
NOTE: The Keep Warm feature does not function for the JAM, DESSERTS or DOUGH settings since baking is not involved in these programs. If you leave fin- ished dough in the unit over a period of time, it may
9 This unit has a convenient Viewing Window so that you may watch the progress of the bread as
it is mixed, kneaded, and baked. Occasionally, some moisture may form in the window during the rising cycle. If moisture forms, you may lift the lid to look inside during the mixing and kneading stages, however, DO NOT OPEN THE LID DURING THE BAKING CYCLE (approximately the last hour) as this may cause the bread to underbake. Most of the moisture should disappear during the baking cycle.
10 To remove the Baking Pan, use pot holders or oven mitts, grasp the wire handle with both
hands and pull straight up on the Baking Pan. Fold and lock the wire handle down. Turn the pan on its side and gently shake the bread out onto a wire cooling rack. The Baking Pan and Mixing Paddle have a
