SETTINGS
BREAD SETTINGS:
Your new bread machine has four bread settings (Basic, French, Wheat, Sweet) and two time modes
(Normal [default setting] and Express). Each bread setting is described below. The baking times in
the Normal time mode vary from 2:00 to 3:30 hours, according to the selected setting or setting
combination. In the Express time mode, the baking times range between 0:45 and 1:50 hours. For
the exact setting times we refer you to the “Bread Machine Cycle Times” schedule. The Normal time
will give you the best results. Only specially designed recipes are appropriate for the Express mode.
Heavy fl ours and other heavy ingredients are not suitable for this setting. It is possible to make two
different types of bread simultaneously, to make the same type of bread in both baking tins or to
make only one loaf of bread.
BASIC
The basic settings are used for breads that primarily consist of white fl our, although some recipes may
include small amounts of whole wheat fl our. These settings have the minimum number of rising cycles
and the shortest overall operating times. Therefore, loaves will be slightly denser than French or Sweet
breads. Choose from Basic settings and select the desired crust colour.
FRENCH
Traditionally, French bread has a crispier crust and lighter texture than Basic bread. Recipes for this
kind of bread usually do not include butter, margarine or milk.
WHEAT
In this setting you can make bread with signifi cant amounts of heavier types of wheat requiring a
longer knead and rise cycle, such as whole wheat, rye fl our, oats or bran. Generally, whole wheat and
multi-grain breads are shorter and denser than basic, French or sweet breads.
SWEET
Use this setting for recipes in which fruit juice, additional sugar or added sweet ingredients such as
coconut fl akes, raisins, dried fruit or chocolate are used. Baking temperature in this setting is reduced
and a longer rise cycle gives the loaf a light, airy texture.
USING YOUR BREAD MACHINE
After a setting or setting combination has been selected, your new bread machine will automatically
move through its bread making process down to its completion. Thanks to the automatic TIMER you can
have the machine make bread while you are asleep or otherwise occupied. (See „Using the TIMER“.)
The recipes included in this booklet have been thoroughly tested so as to ensure the best results. They
have been prepared by home economists especially for these bread machines and may not lead to
acceptable results with other bread machines.
FOR ALL BREAD SETTINGS, FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Open the lid and remove the baking tin by pulling it straight upwards. It is important to remove
the baking tin from the unit before putting any ingredients into it. This will prevent accidentally
spilling ingredients into the baking chamber.
Warning
: Place the bread machine on a level, stable and safe surface. Ingredients spilled into the
baking chamber can cause fi re when ignited by the heating element.
