Operating Instructions

Basic Bread Making Steps

1. Add Ingredients: Place all ingredients into the bread pan in the order specified by your recipe (typically liquids first, then dry ingredients, with yeast last).
2. Select Program: Press the 'Menu' button to cycle through the 25 available programs until you reach your desired setting.
3. Adjust Loaf Size & Crust Color: Use the 'Loaf Size' button to select 1lb, 1.5lb, or 2lb. Use the 'Crust Color' button to choose light, medium, or dark.
4. Set Delay Timer (Optional): If you wish to delay the start of baking, use the 'Time+' or 'Time-' buttons to set the desired delay time (up to 13 hours).
5. Start Baking: Press the 'Start/Stop' button to begin the baking process. The machine will automatically mix, knead, rise, and bake the bread.
6. Automatic Nut Dispenser: If your recipe includes fruits or nuts, load them into the automatic dispenser. The machine will release them at the appropriate time during the kneading cycle.
7. Remove Bread: Once baking is complete, the machine will beep. Use oven mitts to carefully remove the bread pan. Invert the pan onto a wire rack to release the bread. If the kneading paddles remain in the bread, use the paddle removing hook to extract them.
8. Cool: Allow the bread to cool on a wire rack for at least 20-30 minutes before slicing to ensure proper texture.
