This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY and may be plugged into any t20V AC electrical outlet. Do not use any other type of outlet.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. if the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. if it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician, Do not attempt to modify the plug inany way.

SHORT POWER CORD

The Breadmaker's power cord is short to reduce your risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. You can obtain a longer, detachable power-supply cord or extension cord, but be careful when using breadmaker equipped with extra cord length.

if you are using a longer detachable powersupply cord or extension cord, (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) arrange the longer cord so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

BREAD PAN INSTRUCTIONS

• To insert Bread Pan into Breadmaker, • seat it into Oven Case and press down until it snaps into place, Remember to insert Kneading Paddle first, then add all ingredients BEFORE inserting Bread Pan into Oven case.
• To remove Bread Pan from Oven Case, use an oven mitt to hold Handle and lift gently. When you remove Bread Pan after baking, BE SURE TO WEAR OVEN • MITTS to prevent burning. After you remove the loaf by turning the Bread Pan upside down and gently shaking it, check O to see that the Kneading Paddle is removed from the loaf, tf it is stuck in the bread, use a non-metal utensil to gently remove it.

CAUTION: The Kneading Paddle may be very hot. Never remove it from hot bread with bare hands, Take care not to scratch the Kneading Paddle.

!, 2, 3! 1, 2, 3!

We'll say this again, because it's so important, Always put your ingredients into the Bread Pan in this order:

• 1, Wet -- water, milk, oi!s, fats
• 2. Dry -- salt, powdered milk, grains, sugar, flour
• 3. Yeast -- Do not use yeast past expirat!on date.

OPERATING TIPS

• Use oven mitts when working with hot bread or any part of the Breadmaker during or just after Baking cycle.
• It is normal for the Viewing Window to experience condensation during the latter part of the rising cycle, prior to the activation of baking. As the bread bakes, the moisture wil! evaporate.
• Don't open Lid excessively during baking, This causes bread to bake improperly.
• Do not unplug Breadmaker during Kneading or Baking cycles. This will stop the operation.
• Whole Wheat cycles have a rest period for up to 30 minutes before kneading begins, No movement occurs in the Bread Pan, This is normal.
• After baking, a controlled Keep Warm phase will begin for each selection (except Dough and Jam), This will help to reduce condensation between loaf and Bread Pan, However, it is best to remove bread as soon as possible after completing Baking cycle,
• If a dough cycle was chosen, remove ball of dough as soon as the breadmaker has completed the dough cycle, Turn dough out of the pan onto a clear, floured surface. Shape, bake, or store the dough as you planned.

MAKING DOUGH AND BAKING BREAD

Step 1. Remove Bread Pan

Open Lid and remove Bread Pan, Using the Bread Pan Handle, lift Bread Pan straight out of the machine.

Step 2. Position Kneading Paddle

Position Kneading Paddle on Drive Shaft. Match the flat side of the Drive Shaft to the flat part of the hole in the Kneading Paddle, Be sure the paddie is in place, although the fit may seem slightly loose.

Step 3. Place ingredients into Bread Pan

Place ingredients into Bread Pan. For best results, add all liquid ingredients first; then, beginning with salt, add all dry ingredients EXCEPT yeast.

Step 4. Add yeast

Yeast can be the "make or break" ingredient in your recipe. Follow these simple steps and you shouldn't have any yeast problems in baking.

Yeast is always the last ingredient to go in the Bread Pan, Make a shallow well in the direct center of the dry mixture sitting in the pan; no deeper than the first joint of your index finger,

Double check that the yeast is not past the date code on its envelope or label. Add the called-for measure of yeast directly into the shallow welt you made ifi the Bread Pan,

Always be sure to keep yeast from water/liquids and salt. Premature mixing with either of these two ingredients will have a dramatic effect on the yeast, Keep yeast away from liquids (or it will start to activate immediately) and salt (or it may not activate at all). For more details, see "Troubleshooting" at the end of this manual,

Always follow proper ingredient order-- especially on delay bake preparations.

Step 5. insert Bread Pan into Oven Case

Place Bread Pan into Oven Case. (See "INSERTING AND REMOVING BREAD PAN.") Close lid and plug Breadmaker into a 120V wall outlet. Once plugged in, the Breadmaker display window automatically opens to Basic White Bread, 2 lb., Medium Crust.

Step 6. Select Bread Cycle

Press the SELECT button to choose the bread cycle you would like. Beginning with Basic (white), the selec. tot will move through the types of bread settings in the following order:

Basic (white)
Whole Wheat
Fruit and Nut (sweet)
French*
Cake/Batter Bread

See other models: 79641583411 11064972300 66516522000 58075123500 25344723110
Jam
Pizza Dough
Bread Dough
Bake Only

*The French cycle is for breads with crisper crusts, especially those that are lowest in sweeteners, such as French and italian breads.

Step 7 : Select Loaf Size

Press the LOAF button to choose the size loaf you want to bake. You may either choose a 2 Ib or 1,5 Lb bread. This cycle can be prompted for 48 settings.

NOTE: LOAF control cannot be activated for: Batter Bread, Cake, Jam, Dough, Pizza Dough, or Bake Only.

Step 8. Select Crust Color

Press the CRUST button to choose light, medium, or dark crust, You may choose crust types on Basic White, Whole Wheal Fruit and Nut, and French breads only.

Step 9. Start Cycle

Press START to act rate the Breadmaker, The breadmaker has already calculated your various settings and selections, and your recipe is now on its way to being prepared.

First, the machine mixes the ingredients, Then, it begins the Kneading process, During this process, the yeast begins to activate, The Viewing Window may begin to "fog" with condensation, This is a normal part of the process, The condensation wi!! gradual. ly disappear during baking.

Whole Wheat cycles have a "rest" period for up to 30 minutes before kneading begins, No movement occurs in the pan, This is normal.

For special cycles, such as Jam, the Breadmaker follows the processes outlined in the cycle charts at the end of this manual.

Step 10. Stop Cycle/ Remove Bread Pan

When the bread is done, the machine will beep, Press and hold the STOP button, Put on protective oven mitts and remove Bread Pan,

Remember that the Bread Pan and the bread loaf are both very hot after the Baking Cycle! DO NOT place either on a tablecloth, plastic surface, or other surface which might scorch or melt

If STOP is not pressed, a Keep Warm Cycle begins. This wil! help keep the bread from becoming soggy, For best results, remove bread immediately after Baking cycle is complete.

The Keep Warm Cycle does not apply to Dough, Batter Breads/Cakes and Jam cycles

Step 11: Remove Bread from Bread Pan

Remove loaf of bread from Bread Pan as soon as the Breadmaker has completed the baking cycle.

Hold Bread Pan upside down a few inches from countertop and gently shake out the loaf of bread.

Place loaf of bread on a wire rack or other ventilated cooling surface to coot. Allow bread to cool !5.30 minutes before slicing.

Step 12, Remove Kneading Paddle

Be sure to remove Kneading Paddle before slicing,

CAUTION: The Kneading Paddle may be very hot, Never remove it from hot bread with bare hands.

The Kneading Paddle may stick in the loaf of bread, If it does, use a non-metal utensil to gently remove it from the bread, taking care not to scratch the paddle. Use a knife with a serrated edge for best slicing.

Step 13. Unplug Breadmaker

Always unplug your Automatic Breadmaker immediately after use

SUPER RAPID BREADS

The Super Rapid program, with hotter rise and bake temperatures, is convenient for baking a hot fresh loaf of bread in under an hour. The longer bread programs, with lower rise and bake temperatures, will bake a taller more developed loaf of bread.

Step 1

Add ingredients to the bread pan in the order listed. Refer to "For Best Baking Results" for measuring information. Place the bread pan in the bread maker.

Step 2

Close the lid. Select the Super Rapid START.

Step 3

When finished baking, remove bread pan from the bread maker, invert and shake to remove the loaf, Allow loaf to cool stand- ing upright on a wire rack before slicing.

SUPER RAPID PROGRAM HINTS

• Water temperatures must be 110°-115°F/43°-46"C
• Larger amounts of Quick-Rise TM, RapidRise TM, Bread Machine or Instant Active Dry yeast must be used. They may be substituted in equal amounts.
• The dough ball for the Super Rapid program should be a very soft, sticky to the touch, loose ball with a smooth texture. Do not add extra flour,
• Check the dough at the beep, and if necessary, use a rubber spatula to push any flour or dough from the sides of the bread pan down into the dough ball,
• As a result of the increased temperatures during the rise and bake process, the loaf of bread produced from this program may have a dark crisp crust with a split on the top side of the loaf.

SUPER RAPID BREAD RECIPES

We suggest starting your Super Rapid bread baking with this White Bread Recipe, Refer to "For Best Baking Results" for measuring information.

USING THE TIMER

DELAYED BAKING

You can program the Breadmaker to delay preparing and baking the loaf for up to 13 hours from the time you press the START button,

Set the timer for the number of hours there wilt be between the time you set it and the time you want the bread to finish baking. For example:

It's 8:15 a.m, and you want the bread to be finished at 7:00 p.m, the same day. The time difference from 8:!5 a,m. to 7:00 p,m, is 10 hours, 45 minutes. Set the timer for 10 hours, 45 minutes.

It's 9:00 p,m. and you want breakfast bread ready at 6;30 a.m. the next morning. The number of hours + minutes from 9:00 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. is 9 hours, 30 minutes.

Set the timer for 9 hours, 30 minutes.

CAUTION: DO NOT use delayed baking for recipes containing perishable ingredients such as Dairy Products (eggs, milk, cheese, yogurt), Meats (cooked or uncooked), Flsh, or Poultry, These ingredients may begin to spoil before baking begins and create a health hazard if eaten

1, 2, 3! 1, 2, 3!

Remember to always put your ingredients into the Bread Pan in the following order:

1. Wet -- water, milk, oils, fats

2. Dry - salt, powdered milk, grains, sugar, flour
