OTHER TIPS TO KEEP IN MIND WHEN USING YOUR BREAD MAKER
1. DO NOT REMOVE the bread pan or touch any moving parts when bread maker is in
operation. If you need to stop the bread maker during operation, hold the START/STOP
button down for 3 seconds or until the red ON light goes out.
2.BE SURE to allow adequate ventilation around the bread maker when it is in operation.
Keep it out of drafts and direct sunlight and at least 4 inches away from walls, cabinets
and other appliances, especially heating and cooling appliances which can interfere
with the internal bread maker temperatures and affect the loaf of bread being prepared.
3.DO NOT IMMERSE base of bread pan in water or other liquid as this can damage the
bearing on the bottom of the pan that turns the knead bar. See Cleaning Section in this
booklet for further details.
4.ALWAYS place bread maker on a DRY, STABLE, heat-proof countertop or table
during use. Since the bread maker contains a motor, some vibration occurs during the
knead cycle.
5.AVOID touching bread maker during the bake cycle as exterior surfaces become hot.
ALWAYS use pot holders when removing and handling the bread pan after baking.
6.FOLLOW instructions as given for best results. THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP IN
BREAD MAKING IS TO MEASURE INGREDIENTS ACCURATELY. See
Measuring Section in this booklet.
7.DO NOT EXCEED the ingredient capacity of the bread maker. See Know Your
Ingredients Section in this booklet. Use only fresh ingredients.
8.ALWAYS ADD INGREDIENTS in the order listed in the recipes. Add liquid
ingredients to the bread pan first, followed by dry ingredients, then butter or margarine
and finally the yeast in the very center. Before adding the yeast, ALWAYS tap the pan
to settle the dry ingredients, then level off the ingredients, pushing into the corners to
prevent liquid from seeping up. Then add the yeast to the very center of the pan,
making a slight well in the center of the dry ingredients if desired. This sequence is
very important, especially when using the delay start timer of your bread maker to
prevent over fermentation of the yeast.
