Before using your bread maker for the first time, wash the inside of pan and the two knead bars with hot soapy water and a soft cloth, rinse and dry. The knead bars lift off the shafts in the bottom of pan and are made of two parts. See Diagram 8. Do not use any abrasive scouring pads or cleansers on pan or knead bars as damage can occur.

Wipe the inside of chamber and outside surfaces of machine with a soft damp cloth if necessary, dry with a soft cloth.

CAUTION: To prevent the risk of electrical shock, do not immerse bread maker base, its cord or plug in water or other liquid.

Your bread maker is now ready to use.

HOW TO USE-BASIC STEPS IN MAKING BREAD

1.Assemble both knead bars matching same colored parts. See Diagram 8. Position knead bars onto correct shafts in bottom of pan, matching the hub shape to the shaft shape. Note that one shaft is shaped like a D and the other a to easily recognize the difference. Do not attempt to interchange the hubs on the shafts as damage to the bread maker will occur. See Diagram 9 for proper positioning of knead bars on shafts. Make sure both knead bars are pushed down onto the shafts all the way. The blades of the knead bars will lie flat in the bottom of the pan, which is normal.

2.Add ingredients to pan in order listed in recipes, MAKING SURE to add all liquids to pan first, then the butter or margarine, followed by the dry ingredients and finally the yeast. After the dry ingredients are added to pan, tap pan to settle dry ingredients, then level ingredients, pushing some of the dry mixture into corners of pan. This will prevent any liquid from seeping up from the corners. Make a slight well in center of dry ingredients and add the yeast to the well. This is especially important when using the TIME DELAY to prevent the yeast from getting wet too soon.

3.Lock bread pan into bread maker by angling back edge of pan into oval shaped holder. Then firmly push front edge of pan down to lock in place. See Diagram 11 for more details. If pan does not lock in securely, push PAN RELEASE button and position again until secured. Pan must always be locked in place for bread maker to function properly. Always make sure the side of the pan marked FRONT is positioned to the front. Close door.
