sound and "2:50" will appear on the display. Programme 1 will appear
as default setting.
6. Select the appropriate programme for your recipe by pressing the
MENU button on the control panel. Each time this button is pressed,
the number in the display window will move to the next setting. Be
sure to press the button until you hear a beep.
7. Select the appropriate setting for loaf size by pressing the weight
button. Each time this button is pressed, the display will cycle from
one weight to another.
8. Select the appropriate colour setting for your bread crust by pres-
sing the crust button. You can choose between light and dark. The
default setting is light.
9. Press the START/STOP key and hold it for 3 seconds. The baking time
in hours and minutes will appear on the LCD display and the LCD bac-
klight will start flashing. For instance, if you choose a recipe using the
standard bread programme for light crust and 680g size, the display
will show "2:55". It will count down the remaining processing time
in one-minute increments until the bread is done. When using the
programmes "Basic", "French", "Sweet", "Wholewheat" and "Sandwich",
10 beeps will sound during the cycle to indicate that you can add
ingredients. Open the lid and add the desired ingredients. Be careful
when opening the lid because steam might escape.
Note: Once you have pressed the START/STOP key, it is impossible to
modify the settings with the other keys.
10. When the programme is completed, 12 beeps will sound. To avoid
damaging the bread maker surface, do not put any object or the hot
baking tin on top of the unit. If you do not want to use the keep warm
function, stop the appliance by pressing the START/STOP button for
3 seconds. A long beep will sound and the display will go back to the
default setting.
11. If you do not press the START/STOP key and leave the loaf inside
the baking tin, the "keep warm" function begins automatically when
the baking time is done. The bread maker will keep the bread warm
for 60 minutes. At the end of the hour, the display will come back to
the default setting. You may remove the baking tin any time during
46.
the "keep warm" cycle. To turn off the "keep warm" feature before the
60 minutes are up, simply press the START/STOP key and hold it for
3 seconds. Unplug the unit when finished. Caution: when using the
programmes 7 (WHISK), 8 (JAM) and 10 (DOUGH), the keep warm
function is not activated. For programme 10 this is because if you
leave finished dough in the unit too long, it may over-rise and produce
poor results. For best results, remove the dough at the end of the cycle
and follow the recipe directions for shaping, resting and baking.
12. This bread maker 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 on the window during
processing. You may lift the lid to look inside during the mixing and
kneading stages, however, DO NOT OPEN THE LID DURING THE BA-
KING CYCLE (approximately the last hour) as this may cause the bread
to collapse.
13. To remove the bread from the baking pan, use potholders or oven
mitts and raise it by its handle. Turn the pan upside down and shake
the bread out onto a wire cooling rack. The baking pan has a non-stick
coated finish so that the bread should come out easily. Do not use
metal utensils to remove the bread as they may scratch the non-stick
coating. If needed, slide a flat rubber or plastic spatula along the sides
of the pan to loosen the loaf. If the kneading paddle remains in the
bottom of your loaf, use the hook provided or the end of a plastic
spoon or other non-metal utensil to remove it. Do not use a knife or
other sharp metal object, as this will scratch the non-stick coating on
the kneading blade. Always check to see where the kneading blade is
when removing a baked loaf of bread. If it remains stuck to the bread,
you may accidentally damage the kneading blade by cutting into it
while slicing.
14. Allow the bread to cool on a rack for at least 60 minutes before
slicing, to release steam. Use a good serrated bread knife or electric
knife.
