1Basic white (2:50 and 2:45)

For white and brown bread. Also for flavoured breads with added herbs and raisin.

2Wholewheat (4:30 and 4:25)

For the baking of bread containing significant amounts of wholewheat. This setting has longer preheat time to allow the grain to soak up the water and expand. The kneading blade does not turn during this 30 minute rest period. It is not advised to use the delay timer as this can produce poor results. It has been found that some wholemeal flours perform better on the basic menu setting.

3French (3:40 and 3:36)

For the baking of light weight bread such as french bread which has a crisper crust and light texture.

4Rapide (1:58 and 1:56)

For white bread that is required in a shorter time. Bread baked on this setting is usually smaller with a dense texture.

5Sweet (3:25 and 3:22)

For the baking of sweet type bread which gives a crisper crust than on basic setting. The crisper crust is produced by the sugar ‘burning’.

6Cake (1:40 and 1:34)

This setting will mix ingredients and then bake for a preset time. It is required to mix two groups of ingredients in bowls before adding to the breadmaker (see cake recipes).

7Pasta (0:13)

The pasta setting is a 13 minute knead which can be used for general mixing of other flour based recipes. Do not exceed 3 cups of dry mix.

8Fastbake (0:58)

For preparation of a 1.5lb white loaf in a reduced time period. Loaves made on this setting can be shorter and the texture more moist. Water temperature 32-38˚C.

9Dough (1:30)

This setting only makes the dough and will not bake the final bread. Remove the dough and shape it to make bread rolls, pizza, etc. Any dough can be prepared on this setting. Do not exceed 1kg (2lb) of combined ingredients.

Program descriptions

10 Jam (1:25)

Use this setting for making jam from fresh fruits and marmalade from Seville oranges. Do not increase the quantity or allow the recipe to boil over the pan into the baking chamber. Should this happen, stop the machine immediately. Remove the pan carefully, allow to cool a little and clean thoroughly.

11 Extra bake (0:10)

This setting is bake only and can be used to increase the baking time on selected settings. This is especially useful to help ‘set’ jams and marmalade. When started the default time is 10 mins (0:10) minimum and counts down in 10 minute intervals. You will have to manually switch this off by pressing the stop button, when you have completed the Extrabake process. It is advised that you check the condition of the bread or jam after 10 minutes and at 10 minute intervals.

Pressing ▲ increases the time in increments of 10 minutes.

When selecting Extrabake straight after another program, if the message E:01 is displayed, open the lid, remove the pan and allow to cool for 10 minutes. When cool, replace the baking pan and its contents, set program and press start.

Times indicated are for loaf size option, crust colour selection will vary these times. See cycle chart page 21.
