Baking Process

1. Add Ingredients: Place the kneading paddle into the bread pan. Add all ingredients according to your recipe, typically liquids first, then dry ingredients, with yeast last. Ensure ingredients are at room temperature.
2. Select Program: Use the program selection buttons to choose one of the 19 available programs (e.g., Whole Wheat, French Bread, Gluten-Free, Jam, Yogurt). The selected program number will appear on the LCD display.
3. Choose Loaf Size and Browning:
   • Loaf Size: Select your desired loaf weight: 500g, 750g, or 1000g.
   • Browning Level: Choose from Light, Medium, or Dark crust settings.

4. Set Delay Timer (Optional): If you wish to delay the start of the baking process, use the timer buttons to set the desired delay time, up to 15 hours. This allows you to wake up to freshly baked bread.
5. Start Baking: Press the START/STOP button to begin the selected program. The bread maker will automatically perform all steps, including kneading, rising, and baking.
6. Keep Warm Function: After baking is complete, the bread maker will automatically switch to a 1-hour keep-warm function to maintain the bread's temperature.
7. Remove Bread: Once the program is finished and the keep-warm cycle ends, unplug the appliance. Carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts. Invert the pan to release the bread onto a wire rack to cool before slicing. Remove the kneading paddle if it remains in the loaf.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your bread maker.

• Before Cleaning: Always unplug the bread maker from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Bread Pan and Kneading Paddle: The bread pan features a 5-layer non-stick coating for easy release and cleaning. Wash the bread pan and kneading paddle with warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads, as these can damage the non-stick surface. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
• Lid and Viewing Window: The removable lid and viewing window can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild detergent. Ensure no water enters the internal components.
• Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the bread maker with a soft, damp cloth. Do not immerse the main unit in water or any other liquid.
• Storage: Store the bread maker in a clean, dry place when not in use. Ensure all parts are dry before storage.
