2. HOW TO MEASURE
Measuring ingredients the right way with the correct measuring cups and spoons is not important when making bread. See measuring section for
more information.
REMEMBER TO:
Always measure liquid ingredients in see-through measuring cup with graduated markings.
Liquid should just reach marking on cup at “eye-level”, not above or below. For easier measuring, set
cup on inside of top kitchen cabinet.
Always use liquids at the correct temperature, lukewarm, between 75-85°F.
Always spoon dry ingredients like bread flour into solid, nesting type measuring cups, then level
off with table knife.
Never scoop measuring cups into dry ingredients as this will pack down the ingredients, causing
the dough to be dry and the loaf to be short.
Always use set of measuring spoons to measure smaller quantities of dry and liquid ingredients,
measuring level, not rounded or heaping.

OTHER TIPS TO KEEP IN MIND WHEN USING YOUR BREAD MAKER
1. CAUTION: To prevent personal injury, 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 stop button down for four (4) seconds or until alert sounds and SEL flashes in display.
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 four
(4) inches away from walls, cabinets and other appliances, especially heating and cooling appliances which 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 that turns the knead bar on the bottom of the pan.
See “CLEAN AFTER EACH USE” section in this booklet on page 12 for further details.
4. ALWAYS place bread maker on a DRY, STABLE, heatproof countertop or table during use. Since the bread maker contains a motor, some
vibration occurs during the knead cycle.
5. CAUTION: To prevent personal injury, AVOID touching bread maker during the bake cycle as exterior surfaces become hot. ALWAYS use
oven mitts when removing and handling the bread pan after baking.
6. FOLLOW instructions as given for best results. THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP IN SUCCESSFUL BREAD MAKING IS TO MEASURE
INGREDIENTS ACCURATELY. See “MEASURING INGREDIENTS ACCURATLEY” section in this booklet on page 6.
