GETTING TO KNOW YOUR BREADMAKER

The control panel on your bread maker was designed to be very easy to use. Please review the following features to better understand the control panel.

CONTROL PANEL and FUNCTIONS

LCD DISPLAY: The display indicates when the appliance is ready for use. When the unit is first plugged in the default program is displayed. "1 3:25" appears on the display. The "1" specifies which program is selected (1-12 programs) and the "3:25" is the length of the program in hour:minutes. The position of the marking at the top of the display indicates the weight of the loaf selected (1, 1-1/2 or 2lb) with 2lb as the default. The position of the marking at the bottom of the display indicates the degree of browning that is selected (light, medium, dark or rapid) with medium as the default. As the program proceeds the digits of the time displayed will decrease progressively indicating remaining time. During operation the status of the program is indicated in the display with a mark at the active program mode; "Timer," "Preheating," "Kneading," "Pause," "Rising," "Baking," "Keep Warm," and program "End."

"START/STOP" Button: The "START/STOP" button is used to start, stop, pause or cancel a program. Pressing the button when the bread maker is idle will start the program. Pressing the button when the bread maker is active will pause the program. Pressing the button while the program is paused will resume the program. When the bread maker is active or paused, pressing and holding the button until a short alert is heard will cancel the program. A short alert is heard with each press of the "START/STOP" button. You must set all your desired program settings before starting the program. The program cannot be changed while the bread maker is active.

UP and DOWN "TIMER" Buttons: The "TIMER" buttons are used to set a delayed program end time. Only the following programs can be used with the delay timer: (1) "BASIC," (2) "FRENH," (3) "WHOLEWHEAT," (4) "SWEET," (8) "DARK," (9) "DOUGH" and (10) "BAGEL DOUGH." The (5) "SUPER RAPID 1.5lb," (6) "SUPER RAPID 2lb," (7) "QUICK," (11) "JAM" and (12) "BAKE" programs can not be started with the delay timer. The delay hours and minutes will be added to the preprogrammed times for the specific program. The time indicated in the display is the time until the end of the cycle. The maximum time delay is 12 hours and 58 minutes per program.

Example: It is 8:30 p.m. and you would like the bread ready for the next morning at 7:00 a.m. Determine the time difference, 7:00 a.m. is 10 hours and 30 minutes ahead of 8:30 p.m. Press the "TIMER" up or down button until 10:30 appears in the display.

NEVER use the time delay function when using perishable ingredients such as milk, eggs, fruit, yogurt, etc.!

Press and hold the "START/STOP" button until the "E01" message clears and the basic setting appears on the display. Remove the bread pan, leave the cover open, and allow the appliance to cool for 15-20 minutes. Only the "BAKE" program can be started immediately after clearing the "E01" message even if the appliance is still hot.

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^) to assure optimal yeast activity.

• Spoon the dry ingredients into the appropriate measuring cups or then level off with table knife. All ingredients measured in measuring cups must be level, not rounded or heaping.

Never scoop measuring cups into dry ingredients. This will compress the ingredients into the cup and cause the dough to be dry which will result in a short loaf of bread.

BREAD FLOUR should be used in your bread maker. It contains more gluten-forming proteins than all-purpose flour and will provide well-formed loaves with good structure. Several different brands of bread flour are available.

WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR can be used in your bread maker using the "WHOLEWHEAT" bread setting. Whole wheat flour contains the entire wheat kernel, including the bran and germ. Therefore, breads made with 100 percent or a high percentage of whole wheat flour will be lower in height and heavier in texture than bread made with bread flour. The "WHOLEWHEAT" setting on your bread maker is programmed to better develop the structure of wheat breads for optimum results.

RYE FLOUR can be used in combination with bread flour in the preparation of rye or pumpernickel bread. However, it cannot be used alone as it does not contain enough protein to develop adequate gluten for structure.

SUGAR and OTHER SWEETENERS provide food for the yeast, add height and flavor to the bread and give the crust a golden color. Types of sweeteners that can be used include sugar, brown sugar, honey, molasses, maple syrup, corn syrup and fruits, dried or fresh. Do not use artificial sweeteners as a substitute for sugars and other natural sweeteners; the yeast will not react properly and poor results will be attained.

MILK enhances flavor and increases the nutritional value of bread. Any type of milk dry, whole, 2% , 1% , skim, buttermilk or canned evaporated milk can be used in making bread. Refrigerated milk may be warmed to 80 - 90^ ( 27 - 32^ ) however do not overheat (above 100^ , 38^ ) as this could affect the yeast activity. Do not use regular milk when using the "Time Delay" function. Use dry milk and water as a substitute.

WATER used in combination with dry milk can be substituted for regular milk and must be used when using the "Time Delay" function as regular milk can spoil when left at room temperature for several hours. Use lukewarm water, about 80 - 90^ (27-32°C). Do not use water above 100^ (38°C) as this could affect the yeast.

BUTTER, MARGARINE, SHORTENING and OILS serve several purposes in bread making as they tenderize the bread, add flavor and richness. Butter and margarine are interchangeable in recipes. Butter and margarine can be used right from the refrigerator. Cut cold butter or margarine into smaller pieces for faster blending during the knead cycle. Low-fat or fat-free bread can be made by substituting equal amounts of unsweetened applesauce or plain yogurt for the amount of fat recommended in the recipe. Using less fat will affect the height, tenderness and texture of the bread, which is normal.

EGGS add color, richness and leavening to bread. Use only large eggs. No premixing is needed. Egg substitutes can be used in place of fresh eggs. One egg equals 14 cup of egg substitute. To reduce cholesterol, you can substitute two (2) egg whites for a large egg in the recipes without affecting the end result. Watch the dough during the knead cycle as some minor adjustment may be needed to get the dough to the right consistency.

SALT has several functions in making bread. It controls yeast growth while strengthening the gluten structure to make the dough more elastic and also adds flavor. Use ordinary table salt in your bread maker. Using too little or eliminating the salt will cause the dough to over rise. Using too much can prevent the dough from rising as high as it should. "Light" salt can be used as a substitute for ordinary table salt, providing it contains both potassium chloride and sodium. Use the same amount as recommended for table salt. When adding salt to the bread pan, add to one corner to keep it away from the yeast, especially when using time delay as the salt can affect the yeast activity.

YEAST is a living organism, which through fermentation, feeds on carbohydrates in flour and sugar to produce carbon dioxide gas that makes the bread rise. Active dry, fast rising or bread machine yeast can be used in your bread maker. Use only the amount stated in the recipes. Using a little more can cause the dough to over rise and bake into the top of the bread maker. Fast rising yeast and bread machine yeast are virtually the same and interchangeable with one another. Do not use compressed yeast as poor results may be obtained. A 1/4 -ounce envelope of yeast contains 21/4 teaspoons. Yeast can also be purchased in bulk so you can measure the exact amount needed. Once opened, keep refrigerated. Always make sure yeast is fresh and has not passed the "Use By" date.

SPECIAL NOTE ON CINNAMON AND GARLIC: Adding too much cinnamon or garlic can affect the texture and size of the loaf obtained. Cinnamon can break down the structure of the dough, affecting height and texture. Too much garlic can inhibit the yeast activity. Use only the amount of cinnamon and garlic recommended in the recipe.

BASIC STEPS IN MAKING BREAD

Always clean your new appliance thoroughly before using. Refer to "Cleaning Your Breadmaker" section.

1. Insert the bread pan; place the non-stick coated bread pan exactly in the middle of the base inside the baking space. When the bread pan is pressed lightly in the center the fixing device locks into place. To remove the bread pan, pull with medium force on the bread pan carrying handle. CAUTION: The handle is hot after baking. Use oven mitts or hot pads when removing a hot bread pan.
2. Position the knead bar on to the shaft in the bottom of the bread pan, matching the hub shape with the shaft shape. You may need to twist the bar slightly for the knead bar to drop in place. Make sure the knead bar is pushed down on the shaft all the way.
3. Add ingredients to the bread pan in the order listed in the recipe; liquids first, then the butter or margarine, next the dry ingredients and finally the yeast. For best results level the dry ingredients before adding the yeast.
4. Plug the bread maker cord into a 120 volt, AC electrical outlet ONLY.
5. Use the "MENU" button to select the desired program menu.
6. Use the "COLOR" button to select the desired degree of browning.
7. Use the "LOAF" button to select the desired loaf size.
8. If desired, use the "TIMER" up or down arrows to set the elapsed time for when the program is to be completed.
9. Press the "START/STOP" button to begin the program. The start indicator will illuminate. After the bread maker has been turned on, the programmed setting cannot be changed without canceling the program. To change the setting, hold the "START/STOP" button down until the alert sounds and the green "operation" light goes out. Then program the control as desired and turn back on.
10. When the bread is done, an alert will sound and the start indicator will flash. Turn the bread maker off by holding the "START/STOP" button down until the alert sounds and the start indicator light goes out. Unplug the cord from the electrical outlet. If the bread maker is not turned off after the cycle is complete, the bread maker will automatically go into a one hour "Keep Warm" mode. If the machine is not turned off after the end of the "Keep Warm" period, the machine will turn itself off and the start indicator will go out.

11. Remove the bread pan. CAUTION: The handle is hot after baking. Use oven mitts or hot pads when removing a hot bread pan.

12. Invert the bread pan and shake gently until the loaf falls out. Place the bread on a rack to cool 15 to 20 minutes. The knead bar will normally stay in the bread pan when the bread is removed, but may on occasion slide out in the bread. If the knead bar is inside the loaf, remove before slicing. If making another loaf of bread right away, be sure the machine is turned off and allowed to cool 15 to 20 minutes with the cover open.

High Altitude Adjustment: Reduced air pressure at high altitudes causes yeast gases to expand more rapidly and the dough to rise more quickly. The dough can rise so much that when it begins to bake, it will collapse due to overstretching of the gluten structure. To slow the rising of the dough, reduce the amount of yeast by 14 teaspoon at a time until you find the right amount. You can also reduce the amount of liquid by a teaspoon or two. Some experimentation will be needed when using your bread maker at high altitudes.

CLEANING YOUR BREADMAKER

1. Unplug the cord from the electrical outlet and allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Immediately after the bread is removed from the bread pan, fill the bread pan half full with warm water and a small amount of dish soap. Allow the bread pan to soak for 5 to 20 minutes or until the knead bar can be lifted off of the shaft. You may need to twist the knead bar slightly to loosen. The knead bar may need to soak in water before it can be removed. If the knead bar is difficult to remove after soaking, secure the cross bar on the underside of the bread pan while twisting the knead bar to loosen. Wash the inside of the bread pan and knead bar with a soft cloth, rinse and dry. Use a mild detergent. Never use chemical cleaning agents, oven cleaners, abrasive scouring pads, or cleansers on the bread pan or knead bar as damage to the coating or finish can occur.

Replace the knead bar on the shaft.

1. Never immerse the bread pan in water or wash in an automatic dishwasher as damage to the bearing that turns the knead bar can occur. Wipe the inside of the oven chamber and the outside surfaces of the bread maker with a damp cloth if necessary.

Never dip the appliance in water or fill the baking compartment with water! For easy cleaning, the lid can be removed by positioning it vertically and pulling it out.

NOTE: The coating on the inside of bread pan may change color over time, this is normal and does not affect the bread.
