The timer delay is up to a
maximum of 13 hours. This is when
the bread will be ready to remove
from the machine, see page 8, item
14 ‘Remove the food’.
Beeper
The beeper sounds:
when pressing any button;
during the second kneading cycle
of certain programmes to indicate
that cereals, fruit, nuts or other
ingredients can be added;
when the programme finishes;
when keep warm finishes.
Power interruption
After a brief power supply failure
if the programme has not yet
reached rise 1, press start and the
programme will continue using the
automatic repeat function;
if it has gone beyond this point, the
process must be started from the
very beginning. The ingredients will
have to be discarded and you must
start again with fresh ingredients.
Slicing and storing
bread
For best results, place bread on a
wire rack and allow to cool for 15-
30 minutes before slicing.
Use an electric knife or a sharp
knife with a serrated blade for even
slices.
Store unused bread tightly covered
in a plastic bag at room
temperature for up to three days. If
weather is hot and humid, store in
the refrigerator overnight.
For longer storage (up to one
month), place bread in a tightly
covered container in the freezer.
If you store the bread in the
refrigerator, leave it out to bring it
to room temperature before
serving.
Since homemade bread has no
preservatives, it tends to dry out
and become stale faster than
commercially made bread.
Leftover slightly hardened bread
may be cut into 1.3 cm (half inch)
or 2.5cm (1 inch) cubes and used
in favourite recipes to make
croutons, bread pudding, or
stuffing.
Drop down blade
The breadmaker has a unique
kneading blade which folds down
flat at the end of the 2nd rise cycle,
this ‘punches’ the dough ready for
the final rise 3 and allows the blade
to fold flat to minimise the hole size
left in the base of the baked loaf.
Ensure the blade is in the upright
position before adding the
ingredients. If it falls over, lift it back
to the upright position.
Clean the blade every time after
use, ensure the blade rotates freely
on the spindle before each use,
you can add a little sunflower oil to
the joint before putting it back into
the pan. This will then be ready for
next use.
Care and cleaning
1
WARNING: To prevent electrical
shock, unplug the unit before
cleaning.
2
Wait until the breadmaker has
cooled.
IMPORTANT: Do not immerse or
splash either the body or lid in any
liquid as this may cause damage
and/or electric shock.
3
Exterior: Wipe the lid and outer
body of the unit with a damp cloth
or slightly dampened sponge.
4
Interior: Use a damp cloth or
sponge to wipe the interior of the
breadmaker.
5
Baking pan: Clean the baking pan
with warm water, soap is not
necessary. Avoid scratching the
non-stick surface. Dry it thoroughly
before placing it back in the baking
chamber.
Do not wash the baking pan,
measuring cup, spoon or kneading
blades in the dishwasher.
Do not soak the baking pan for
long periods, as this could interfere
with the working of the drive shaft.
If the kneading blade becomes
stuck in the bread pan, pour hot
water over it and allow to soak for
30 minutes.
This will enable you to remove the
kneading blade more easily.
Be sure the appliance is completely
cooled before storing away.
Do not use any of these when
cleaning
• Paint thinner
• Benzine
Steel wool pads
• Polishing powder
• Chemical dustcloth
Special care for the non-stick finish
Avoid damaging the coating. Do
not use metal utensils such as
spatulas, knives or forks.
The coating may change colour
after long use, this is only caused
by moisture and steam and will not
affect the performance of the unit
or quality of your bread.
The hole in the centre of the
kneading blade should be cleaned,
then add a drop of cooking oil and
replace it on the spindle in the
baking pan. This will prevent the
blade sticking.
Keep all air vents and openings
clear of dust.
Storing the unit
Be sure to dry all parts before
storing, including wiping any
moisture from the viewing window.
Close the lid and do not store
anything on top of the lid.
Understanding
baking
It is often said that cooking is an
art, relying on the creativity of the
chef, while baking bread is much
more of a science. This means that
the process of combining flour,
water and yeast results in a
reaction that produces bread. You
have to remember that when the
ingredients combine with each
other they produce a specific
result. Read the following
information carefully to gain a
better understanding of the
importance each ingredient plays in
the breadmaking proces
