Control Panel

breadmaker was designed to be very easy to use. Please review the following

features to better understand the control panel.

LCD DISPLAY: The display indicates when the appliance is ready for use. When the

appliance is first plugged in, there will be an audible beep and the default program is

displayed. “1 3:05” appears on the display. The “1” specifies which program is selected

(1-12 programs) and the “3:05” is the length of the program in hour: minutes. The

position of the arrow at the top of the display indicates the weight of the loaf selected (3,

2.5 or 2 lb) with 2.5 lb as the default. The position of the arrow at the bottom of the

program. A short alert is heard with each press of the “START/STOP” button. Press this

button when the Breadmaker is idle to start the program. When the breadmaker is active,

press the button once to pause the program, or press and hold to cancel the program. If

you do cancel the program, the breadmaker will return to its default settings for the

chosen menu selection. All customized settings will be lost if the program is cancelled.

You must set all desired program settings before starting the program. The program

cannot be changed after the cycle has begun, unless you cancel the cycle.

“COLOR” Button: “COLOR” cycles to select the crust darkness: LIGHT, MEDIUM,

and DARK. The default color is MEDIUM.

selected, press “START/STOP” button. As time counts down, the “ : ” will blink to

indicate that it is working. Setting (10) Cake cannot be used with a delayed start.

DELAY START: The maximum time delay is 13 hours 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 “+” or “-” buttons until 10:30 appears in the display.

NEVER use the time delay function when using perishable ingredients such as

milk, eggs, fruit, yogurt, etc.!

knead or rest cycles.

8. If desired, use the TIMER “+” and “-” buttons to set the elapsed time for when the

program is to be completed (see pg. 4).

9. Press the “START/STOP” button to begin the program. After the breadmaker 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; program the control as desired and turn back on.

10. When the bread is done, an alert will sound. Turn the breadmaker off by holding

the “START/STOP” button down until the alert sounds. Unplug the cord from the

electrical outlet. If the breadmaker is not turned off after the cycle is complete, the

Note: Your breadmaker’s memory can remember your customized homemade

settings unless power is lost for more than 5 minutes. When “CUSTOM” is first

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 ¼

teaspoon at a time until you find the right amount. You can also reduce the amount

soak for 5 to 20 minutes, or until the knead blades can be lifted off of the shafts.

You may need to twist the knead blades slightly to loosen. If the knead blades

are difficult to remove after soaking, secure the cross bar on the underside of the

bread pan while twisting the knead blades to loosen. Wash the inside of the

bread pan and knead blades 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 blades, as damage to the coating

or finish can occur. Replace the knead blades on the shaft.

3. Never immerse the bread pan in water or wash in an automatic dishwasher as

damage to the bearing that turns the knead blade can occur. Wipe the inside of

the oven chamber and the outside surfaces of the breadmaker with a damp cloth

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

BREAD FLOUR should be used in your bread maker. It contains more gluten-

WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR can be used in your bread maker using the “Whole wheat”

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 “Whole wheat” 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.

temperatures, the yeast will not react properly, and poor results will be attained.

When measuring sticky sweeteners, such as honey, coat the measuring spoon with

vegetable oil before measuring the sweetener. This will allow the sweetener to slide

off the spoon without sticking.

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°F (27-32°C) however do not

overheat (above 100°F, 38°C) as this could affect the yeast activity. Do not use regular

milk when using the “Delay Start” function. Use dry milk and water as a substitute.

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.

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, providing it contains both potassium chloride and sodium. Use the same amount

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

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 FLOUR: All flours are affected by growing conditions, milling,

storage, humidity, etc. While not visibly different, you may need to make some minor

adjustments when using different brands of flour as well as compensating for the

humidity in your area. Always store bread flour in an airtight container. Store whole

grain flours, whole wheat and rye, in a refrigerator to prevent them from becoming

rancid. Measure the amount of flour as directed in each recipe, but make any

adjustments after the first 3 - 4 minutes of continuous kneading.

under the knead blade, no adjustment is necessary.

Basic Pasta Dough

After knead cycle has completed, remove the dough ball from the bread pan. Place in a

plastic bag or under a damp towel to keep moist, and let rest for 30 minutes. Cut into

quarters then roll thin through a pasta roller or use a rolling pin to roll to desired thickness.

Pizza Dough

When dough is done, turn breadmaker off and remove the bread pan. Place the

Press the dough into the pans, forming an edge. Let the dough rise in a warm, draft

free place for 20 to 25 minutes. Spread pizza sauce evenly over crusts, then top with

favorite meat, toppings, and shredded cheese. Bake in an oven, preheated to 425°F,

for 20 to 25 minutes or until browned on top. Let rest 5 minutes before cutting.

warm, draft free area for 45 minutes to rise. Once dough has doubled in size, lightly

brush the tops with butter or egg white and bake in a 350° F oven for 15-20 minutes,

or until golden brown. Serve warm.
