Setting 1 BASIC BREADS
This setting is used for breads that primarily use white flour,
although some recipes may include small amounts of whole grain flour.
This is the best setting to use when experimenting with different
bread recipes in your Breadmaker.
Setting 2 WHOLE WHEAT (also MULTI-GRAIN)
This setting is used for recipes with significant amounts of whole
wheat, rye flour or bran. It begins with a rest period during which the
flours or grains absorb the liquid ingredients. Soaking causes the flour
or grain to soften and helps ingredients to combine well. The settings
have an extra rise cycle to allow heavy wheat and grains to expand.
Generally, whole wheat and multi-grain breads are shorter and denser
than Basic, French, or Sweet breads.
Setting 3 FRENCH
Traditionally, French bread has a crispier crust and lighter texture than
basic breads. Recipes usually do not include butter, margarine, or milk.
Setting 4 QUICK
These breads have the shortest mixing time and are always leavened
with baking powder or baking soda. Use for banana breads, coffee cakes
and pound cakes.
Setting 5 SWEET
Use this setting for recipes that use a high percentage of butter,
eggs and sugar, as well as fruit juice, or added sweet ingredients, such as
coconut flakes, raisins, dried fruit, or chocolate. Baking temperature is
reduced to prevent burning and the extra rise cycle gives the loaves
a light, airy texture.

Setting 6 CAKE
This setting is used for recipes that contain baking powder or baking
soda rather than yeast to make cake rise. Cake recipes must be specially
designed for this setting.
Setting 7 JAM
Use this setting for making jam from fresh fruits.
Setting 8 DOUGH
This setting is ideal for making a variety of doughs. Use this setting to
knead, proof, punch and rise without utilizing the baking mode. Remove
the dough and shape it to make pizza, rolls, pretzels, doughnuts, and
round or braided breads. Then bake in a conventional oven or fry in a
deep fryer (i.e. doughnuts).
Setting 9 RAPID BAKE
This setting is designed to make bread in only 59 minutes. Only specially
designed recipes are appropriate for this setting. These recipes call for
very warm water and a large amount of Breadmaker or fast-rising yeast.
Heavy flours and other heavy ingredients are not suitable for this setting.
Setting 10 BAKE
This is a bake-only setting that does not mix. If you have baked a
loaf of bread in your machine and would prefer a darker crust, use
the BAKE setting to bake the loaf for a longer period of time. Set the
machine to the BAKE setting and press the START key. Watch your time
and stop the machine when desired. The bake cycle is preset for 60
minutes. This setting is especially helpful for leftover breads, or when
you need to extend the baking time from any of the other cycles.
Setting 11 GLUTEN FREE
This setting is used for kneading, rising, and baking gluten-free bread
using gluten-free flours in place of standard bread flour.
Setting 12 CUSTOM
This setting allows you to set your own preferred times for the kneading,
rising, and baking cycles of your Breadmaker.
