Close the lid and plug into an outlet (120 volt). Two
ARROWS will come up in the display window indi-
cating BASIC BREAD TYPE with a REGULAR crust and
12:00 AM will flash in the display window. If you wish
to use the TIMER to delay baking, you will first have to
set the correct time of day. However, if you want to
start the breadmaking operation now, it is not neces-
sary to set the CLOCK.

To bake a Basic loaf of bread with a Regular
Crust, simply press the START/RESET Button.
However, you can choose a different setting for your
recipe by pressing the
BREAD TYPE button
on the pad. Each time
you press BREAD TYPE, the
arrow in the display window will point
to the next selection (i.e. Rapid Bake, Sweet
Bread, etc.) If you are using a recipe that calls for the
Basic, Rapid Bake, or Sweet
Bread setting, choose a
crust color by pressing the
CRUST COLOR button until the
arrow in the window lines up with either
Regular or Dark.
7
Press the START/RESET Button once until it
beeps and the red on indicator light comes on.
The flashing 12:00 AM will be replaced by, for exam-
ple, 3:50, if you chose a recipe for the Basic Bread set-
ting (regardless of whether you chose Regular or
Dark crust). It will count down the
remaining time in one-minute intervals
(3:49, 3:48, etc.) until the bread is done. When the
baking is complete, several beeps will sound to alert
you that the bread is ready and the red indicator light
will begin flashing. In addition, a flashing 12:00 AM
will reappear in the display screen.

This Breadmaker is designed with a Keep Warm
function that automatically begins when baking
is complete. The red light will continue to flash for
up to 60 minutes after baking is complete and will
keep bread warm during that time. At the end of the
hour, the
Keep Warm cycle will end and the light
will remain on constantly, indicating the unit is still
plugged in. The bread should then be removed as
soon as possible to avoid getting soggy. You may
remove the Baking Pan any time during the
Keep
Wa rm
cycle. To turn off the Keep Warm feature
before the 60 minutes are up, simply press the
START/RESET button and hold it until the display
time clears.
NOTE: The Keep Warm feature does not function for
the DOUGH/PASTA setting since baking is not
involved in this program. If you leave finished dough
in the unit over a period of time, it may over-rise and
produce poor results. For best results, remove dough
at the end of the program and follow the recipe
directions for shaping, rising, and baking.

This unit has a convenient Viewing Window so
that you may watch the progress of the bread as
it is mixed, kneaded, and baked. Occasionally, some
moisture may form in the window during the rising
cycle. If moisture forms, you may lift the lid to look
inside during the mixing and kneading stages,
however, DO NOT OPEN THE LID DURING THE
BAKING CYCLE (approximately the last hour) or
during the Super Rapid Bake setting as this may
cause the bread to underbake. Most of the moisture
should disappear during the baking cycle.
10
To remove the Baking Pan, use pot holders or
oven mitts, grasp the wire handle with both
hands and turn the Pan to the left until the notch in
the pan lines up with the unlock arrow on the back
wall of the oven chamber. Pull straight up on the
Baking Pan. Fold and lock the wire handle down.
Turn the pan on its side and gently shake the bread
