4) underside housing

Place the machine on a sturdy, flat and non-flammable surface (not on a plastic table cloth for example) and at a safe distance from an oven or stove or other heat sources. Keep a distance of at least 5 cm between the machine and the walls. Never place the machine on a damp surface and do not use the machine out of doors. During use, the machine will become hot, therefore touch only the hand grips and keep children out of the vicinity. You are advised to use oven gloves or pot- holders to remove the hot baking tins from the machine Do not use any metal objects (e.g. knives) to handle the baking tin as this will damage the non-stick coating. Use the machine with dry hands only. Before using the baking tins and the kneading arm for the first time, wash them carefully in warm soapy water and dry them off. The machine may give off a little smoke when used for the first time. This is normal for new heating elements and will stop after a short time. Ensure that the lid is placed correctly onto the appliance! If this is not the case, it will be shown in the display (the word 'LID' will appear on and off) As soon as the lid has been put into the correct position the appliance will start working again.

STEP BY STEP DESCRIPTION

The whole process is described below in brief on a step by step basis. The terms used will be explained later in these instructions. - Take the baking tin out of the breadmaker and put the 2 kneading arms onto the shafts so that they face each other. - Weigh the ingredients according to the recipe and place them in the baking tin. First the flour. Put the yeast in a small hollow in the flour. Then the salt, the butter or oil, and the sugar, all in a different cor- ner. Pour water or milk along the edges. (The yeast must not come into contact with the water, the salt or the butter or oil. This is especially important when you set the baking time with the ‘Timer’ button.) - Place the baking tin into the breadmaker and press it firmly. The baking tin is now held firmly in place by the clamps. - Close the lid and plug it in. 3:45 now appears on the display. - Select the desired programme with the ‘SELECT COURSE’ button. - Use the ‘CRUST CONTROL’ button to select the desired browning level (light, medium or dark). This option is available with programmes 1, 4, 8 and 10. - If you wish to use the TIMER function, you can do so now (only available with programmes 1,2,3,9 & 10). - Press the ‘START’ button. - After the 1st signal extra ingredients may be added for the filling, if desired. (see the recipes at the back of these instructions) - The second beep will sound when the baking process is finished. - WARNING: The baking tin and the bread are hot! Use ovengloves when removing the baking tin from the breadmaker and the bread from the baking tin. Let the bread cool down on a rack. - NOTE: The kneading arms may still be inside the bread. If this is the case, they can be carefully removed. Note that the kneading arms are hot! - If you wish to bake another loaf, you should wait a few minutes until the appliance has sufficiently cooled off. The breadmaker will emit a peeping sound and ‘HOT’ will appear in the display if it has not cooled down sufficiently.14 - Turn the appliance off when finished and remove the plug from the socket. - The easiest way to cut the freshly baked bread is with the Princess electrical knife ( art 2952) CONTROL PANEL You can switch the breadmaker on and off using the start/reset button. To switch on: Press the start/ reset switch. To switch off: Hold the start/reset button in, and count to 5. NOTE: If you switch off the breadmaker while the baking process is still running the programme will not be completed, but will start from the beginning.

• Basic To bake white or mixed bread. This is the most often used programme. The breadmaker kneads the bread 3 times. After the first time you will hear a beep. After this beeb you can add the extra ingredients. The programme takes 3 hours and 45 minutes in total.

• Basic wheat Preparing the wholemeal wheat bread. The breadmaker kneads the dough twice, the dough rises and takes longer to bake. The programme takes 3 hours and 55 minutes

• Basic dough With this method you can knead dough for sandwiches, pizzas, for example, or any other recipe for which you need dough. You can also use this setting to stir jam. The programme takes 2 hours and 5 minutes

• Quick (commonly used programme) To bake white or mixed bread. The breadmaker kneads the dough twice and beeps before the second kneading session begins. You can now add the ingredients. The rising process of the dough is shortened and baking will need less time. The programme takes 2 hours and 8 minutes.

• Quick wheat To bake French white bread. The dough is kneaded twice, the time it takes for the bread to rise is lengthened, as is the baking time. In this way, a thicker crust is achieved. The programme takes 2 hours and 28 minutes. This programme can also be used for other types of bread.

• Quick dough Preparing the dough. The breadmaker kneads only the dough. The programme takes 45 minutes

• Jam A programme for making jam. The programme takes 1 hours and 20 minutes

• Cake Preparing delicious cake. The bread maker kneads twice. The programme takes 2 hours15

• Sandwich The programme takes 3 hours and 35 minutes

• Home made For this, you can adjust the appliance yourself. You must go through the entire programme: kneading, rising, kneading, baking, etc. With this function you can use the ‘CYCLE’ and ‘TIME’ buttons. ‘CRUST CONTROL’ To choose the level of browning for the crust, press the button ‘ crust control’ - Light - Medium - Dark The times given in the overview are based on medium browning of the crust. If you want a different browning level the time will adjust itself! This option is available with programmes 1, 4, 8 and 10. TIMER function With the timer you can set the breadmaker to switch on automatically a few hours later. This means you can set it to switch on at night, for example. This option is available with programmes 1, 2, 3, 9 and 10. Example Put all the ingredients in the bread tin, make sure the yeast does not come into contact with the liquid. Use the menu button to select the desired programme and choose the desired browning with the "crust control" button. It is 10.00 pm and you would like to have fresh bread ready to take out of the breadmaker at 7.15 am the following morning. The difference between these times is 9 hours and 15 minutes. The timer should therefore be set to 9:15. LOAF SIZE This function allows you to determine the volume of the dough.

1.5 lb stands for 1.5 pounds (suitable for baking bread of 600 grams).

2.0 lb stands for 2.0 pounds (suitable for baking bread of 800/900 grams).

This option is only available with programmes 1, 2 and 9. PRE-HEAT FUNCTION This breadmaker is preheated for a few minutes - this is standard. This varies from 5 minutes to 40 minu- tes. The text ‘pre-heat’ appears on the display. FAULTS If there is a power failure during the process, the bread maker will turn itself on again automatically if the disturbance is shorter than 30 minutes. The programme will continue from the point it where it was inter- rupted. If the power failure lasts longer than 30 minutes, the machine will not continue the baking process and you should start the machine up again.

COMMENTS CONCERNING THE RECIPES

To get the best results, be careful to keep to the correct proportions between the ingredients. Use the enclosed measuring cup and measuring scoop, or use weighing scales. The measuring cup is 250 ml Ensure the water is not too cold - the best temperature is hand warm (28°X to 30°XC) The large measuring scoop is 15 ml and is equal to a dessert spoon. The small measuring scoop is 5 ml and is equal to a teaspoon Every recipe has fresh or dried yeast listed and you should make a choice between the two. Possible problems when baking bread The bread does not rise:

• put the yeast under the flour so that it doesn’t come into contact with salt, butter or water. The bread rises too high.

• use more salt The bread looks like a “crater”:

• too much water has been used

• use 2 more dessertspoons of flour

• The bread has been left too long in the bread mould. The bread is too heavy:

• Use 2 more dessertspoons of water There are holes in the bread

• use 2 dessertspoons less water

• use a little less yeast

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Before using the breadmaker for the first time, clean it and the kneading arms with a gentle detergent. Before cleaning and storing the appliance, always let it cool down first. After cooling down for about half an hour, the appliance is ready to be used once again for baking or making dough. Before cleaning, always remove the plug from the wall socket and give the appliance the chance to cool down. Never use aggressive detergents such as chemical cleaners, oven cleaner etc. Remove all ingredients and crumbs from the lid, the housing and the pan with a damp cloth Never immerse the bread maker in water and never fill the appliance with water. Clean the housing on the inside and outside with a damp cloth Always clean and dry the appliance carefully after use. The kneading arms and shafts must be cleaned immediately after each use. If you leave the kneading arms in position after use, it may be difficult to remove them at a later stage. If this happens, fill the baking tin with warm water and, after 30 minutes, remove the kneading arm and clean it. The baking tin and kneading arms are covered with a non-stick layer; you should therefore never use metal implements that could damage the surface. It is normal that the colour of the non-stick layer will turn dull after several baking cycles. This will not affect the functioning however. Before storing the appliance away, ensure that it is has completely cooled down and is clean and dry. Always close the lid of the appliance when storing it away.
