Operating Instructions
Basic Bread Making Process
- Insert Kneading Blade: Place the kneading blade onto the shaft inside the baking pan.
- Add Ingredients: Add ingredients to the baking pan in the order specified by your recipe (typically liquids first, then dry ingredients, with yeast last). Ensure yeast does not come into direct contact with liquids or salt initially.
- Place Pan: Insert the baking pan into the bread maker, pressing down firmly until it clicks into place. Close the lid.
- Select Program: Use the "Menu" button to select the desired program (e.g., Basic, Whole Wheat, French, Sweet, Dough).
- Select Loaf Size: Use the "Loaf Size" button to choose between 1.0LB, 1.5LB, or 2.0LB, according to your recipe.
- Select Crust Color: Use the "Crust" button to select Light, Medium, or Dark crust.
- Start Baking: Press the "Start/Stop" button to begin the program. The bread maker will automatically mix, knead, rise, and bake.
- Remove Bread: Once the program is complete, the bread maker will beep. Press "Start/Stop" to stop the beeping, then unplug the appliance. Using oven mitts, carefully remove the baking pan.
- Cooling: Invert the pan to release the bread onto a wire rack. If the kneading blade remains in the bread, carefully remove it with a non-metallic utensil. Allow the bread to cool for at least 20-30 minutes before slicing.
Delay Timer Function
The delay timer allows you to program the bread maker to finish baking at a later time, up to 13 hours. After selecting your program, loaf size, and crust color, use the "+" and "-" buttons to set the desired delay time. The time displayed includes the baking time. Press "Start/Stop" to activate the delay timer.

- Before Cleaning: Always unplug the appliance and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
