ALERTS, SOUNDS and OTHER GENERAL FUNCTIONS

Alert: The alert sounds:

At the pressing of any button that allows function selection. If the button doesn’t beep, that function choice is not available.

An alert may sound during the second kneading cycle of some settings to signal that the cereals, fruits, nuts or other ingredients can be added.

When the end of the program is reached.

During the warming phase at the end of the baking procedure the alert sounds

several times.

Power Interruption: If there is a brief power interruption of less than five minutes, the program position is stored in memory and the machine will resume when the power is restored.

Over-temp Error: If the display shows “H H H” after the program has been started, it means that the temperature inside of bread maker is too high. You should stop the program and unplug the power cord immediately. Open the lid and let the machine cool down completely before using again. If you are making consecutive loaves of bread, this error message is not uncommon and does not indicate defect in the bread maker.

A small amount of smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the release of manufacturing oils – this is normal.

Some minor expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and cooling – this is normal.

KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS AND MEASURE ACCURATELY

Although bread making seems very basic, it is a science and the proportions of ingredients are critical. The most important step in using your bread maker is to measure the ingredients precisely and accurately. Read the following information to better understand the importance each ingredient plays in the bread making process. Always make sure the ingredients are fresh.

Measure the liquid ingredients in see-through measuring cups with accurate markings. Place the cup on a flat surface and measure at “Eye Level,” not at an angle. All measurements must be accurate. Always use liquids between 80-90°F (27-32°C) to assure optimal

yeast activity.
