• TIMER BUTTONS FOR DELAY START
The TIMER buttons let you program the bread maker to start at a later time, especially convenient if you
wish to wake up to a fresh baked loaf of bread or to come home to a warm loaf at dinner time. The timer
can be programmed to delay the start of the bread maker for up to 13 hours. Simply prepare the recipe you
wish to make, place the bread pan into the bread maker, make your desired selections for BREAD SELECT
and COLOR and program the number of hours and minutes between starting time to desired fi nish time
using the timer buttons. The UP A TIMER button will scroll up in 10 minute intervals, whereas the
DOWN V TIMER button will scroll down in 10 minute intervals. See Timer Delay Section in this book
for more details.
The delay start timer can be used with all SIX Bread Settings, providing non-perishable ingredients are
used. The delay start timer cannot be used with the Dough setting. The recipes that have the ® symbol
can be used in the delay start mode. Either active dry or fast rising yeast can be used with the delay
start timer.
• START/STOP BUTTON
Use the START/STOP button to turn the bread maker on and off. Before starting the bread maker, you
must fi rst program the BREAD SELECT setting and the BREAD COLOR setting plus the DELAY START
TIMER if using this feature. To start the bread maker, simply press the START/STOP button once. When
turned on, the red signal light under the word ON will glow and remains lit until the bread maker is turned
off. To turn bread maker off, press and hold the START/STOP button down for about 3 seconds or until
the ON light goes out.
Once you have started the bread maker, the colon between the hours and minutes will begin to flash and
the minutes will begin to count down. If not using the delay start timer, words describing the actual cycle
the bread maker is in will appear in the display such as REST, KNEAD, RISE and BAKE so you know
exactly what cycle the bread maker is in. The process time also begins to count down in minutes so you
always know how much time remains before the bread will be done.
When the process time elapses, 0:00 will appear in the display and an audible alert will sound to let you
know the bread or dough is done. Turn the bread maker off by holding down the START/STOP button
until the red signal light goes off. Remove the bread pan using pot holders and place hot loaf of bread
on a rack to cool.
If the bread pan is not removed from the bread maker immediately after baking, the bread maker will
automatically go into a Keep Warm mode for up to 3 hours to keep the bread warm. The red ON light
will remain lit during the keep warm period as a reminder. When the bread pan is removed, turn the
bread maker off by holding down the START/STOP button for 3 seconds or until the ON light goes out.
If in the dough mode, the bread maker will turn off automatically and the ON light will go out upon
completion of the cycle. Remove the pan containing the dough immediately and shape/form as desired
for conventional baking. Do not leave pan containing dough inside bread maker after it turns off as dough
will continue to rise and could overfill the pan if left inside bread maker too long. See Dough Section
for more details.
• LOCK BUTTON
The LOCK button lets you 'lock' the selected program into the control panel after the bread maker has
been turned on. This will prevent accidental tampering of the control buttons which can interfere with
the bread making process. The use of the LOCK button is optional.
The LOCK button can be used with all Six Bread Settings as well as the Dough Setting. After the control
has been programmed for Bread Select, Bread Color, and the Delay Start Timer, if being used, press the
START/STOP button once to turn the bread maker on. Then press the LOCK button once to 'lock' the
selected program into the control. If you try to activate the LOCK feature before the bread maker is turned
on, an alert will sound indicating that you cannot enter LOCK until after ihQ bread maker has been
turned on.
When the LOCK feature is activated, the word 'lock' will appear in the display. Upon completion of the
bread making cycle, you must fi rst release the 'lock' setting from the control before the bread maker can
be turned off. Press and hold the LOCK button down for 3 seconds or until the word 'lock' disappears
from the display. Then press and hold the START/STOP button down for 3 seconds or until the ON light
goes out. If in the Dough mode, the LOCKfeature will be released when the bread maker automatically turns
off upon completion of the cycle.
TOO HOT/TOO COLD WARNING
If the inside of the oven chamber is too hot or too cold for making bread, the words TOO HOT or TOO
COLD will appear in the display along with an audible alert. You will need to remove the bread pan from
the bread maker and allow the chamber to cool down or warm up accordingly. Typically TOO HOT will
appear in the display when you attempt to make consecutive loaves of bread. Allow the chamber to cool,
with the cover open, for 10 to 15 minutes or until the bread maker can be turned on without the warning
going off. If TOO COLD appears in the display, move the bread maker into a warmer area for 15 minutes
or until bread maker can be turned on without the warning going off. If the oven is too hot, the yeast can
be killed; if it is too cold, the growth of the yeast will be retarded.
