Do not clean the appliance or any part or accessories of the appliance in an automatic dishwasher.

1. Unplug the appliance and with the lid open, leave the appliance cool down to room temperature (at least 20 minutes).

2. To unlock the bread pan, turn it counter-clockwise. Then lift it out of the heating compartment.
   IMPORTANT: Only use warm dishwater for cleaning the appliance.
   Handle the parts of the appliance with care to avoid damage. This holds especially for the inner flap of the ingredients box, the white silicone seal on the bottom of the heating compartment and the heating elements.

3. Clean the heating compartment using a wet cloth or a slightly wet soft sponge. Ensure to remove all crumbs and splashes. However, ensure not to damage the white silicone seal and heating elements in the bottom of the heating compartment.
   Additionally, no fluffs or other particles may remain on the heating elements.

4. Wipe the lid and the interior of the ingredients box carefully with a wet cloth. Ensure not to damage the hinges of the inner flap of the ingredients box. If required, use a small soft brush to clean the interior of the ingredients box.

5. Wipe the exterior of the appliance and power cord with a soft damp cloth. Thereafter, wipe the appliance dry with a soft cloth.

6. Take the kneading paddle out of the bread pan by simply pulling it upwards. If the kneading paddle sticks to the drive shaft and is hard to remove, fill the bread pan with hot dishwater for approx. 30 minutes. Then try again. If required, use the provided hook to lift the kneading paddle out of the bread pan.

7. Clean all surfaces of the bread pan and the kneading paddle using warm dishwater and a soft brush or cloth. Especially the drive shaft protruding from the bottom of the bread pan interior needs thorough cleaning. It must be smooth and shiny. Otherwise, the kneading paddle could stick to the drive shaft after next operation.
   TIP: Ensure that the opening in the kneading paddle is completely clean and smooth. Residues within the opening would stick to the drive shaft, thus making it quite difficult to remove the kneading paddle from the drive shaft after operation.

8. After cleaning, hold the kneading paddle and bread pan up to the light to check, whether the opening in the kneading paddle and the drive shaft are clean. If there are any residues, you should soak kneading paddle and bread pan for some minutes in hot dishwater. Thereafter clean thoroughly, using a soft cloth.

9. Dry all parts thoroughly. Thereafter leave the appliance (with the lid open) and the parts dry naturally for ½ hour, where they are out of reach of young children.
   TIP: It is good advice to reassemble the appliance after cleaning.
   This way, you protect the parts from damage, loss, and dust.
   IMPORTANT: Before reassembling the appliance, always ensure that the parts of the appliance are clean and completely dry. This is crucial especially for the heating compartment and exterior of the bread pan. Otherwise, moisture could get onto the heating elements and cause risk of overheating and electric shock.

10. Push the kneading paddle onto the drive shaft in the bread pan.

11. Turn the bread pan within the heating compartment until it settles down on the coupling of the kneading works. Then turn the bread pan clockwise to lock it onto the coupling.
    TIP: If you cannot push the bread pan down completely, turn the drive shaft/kneading paddle a little, then try again.

12. Close the lid.

Use the buttons of the “Bistro Bread Maker” to operate the following functions:

shown on top of the LCD screen. A list of the available programs can be checked with the use of the printed QR code on front side. Each time this button is touched, the appliance will switch to the next program number while sounding a beep. The appliance will cycle through the programs. After number 14, it will return to number 1 again.
WEIGHT| Use for setting the total amount of ingredients. Your choice is indicated on top of the LCD screen. The following settings are available:
• 1000 g — for a total amount of up to 1000 g (1 kg).
• 750 g — for a total amount of all ingredients between 500 g and 750 g (Default).
• 500 g — for a total amount of all ingredients up to 500 g.
Tip: With an amount not sufficient for the total amount of ingredients selected, your bread may not be done completely or too dry and dark. If it is not done, you can use the program Bake (12) for additional baking. See: “Applying Some Additional
Baking Time”.
This button is active only for the programs 1-8.
BURNING COLOR| Selecting the desired colour of your bread: light, medium, or dark.
Default: medium. Your choice is indicated via an icon on the bottom of the LCD screen. This setting is available for the programs 1-8.
+ TIME and
-TIME| Use these buttons to set up the time duration until completion.
• With the programs 1-9, 11 and 14 you can set a delayed start of the selected program. In this case, the icon of pre-set time will flash on the LCD screen. The set time will include the processing time of the selected program.
See: “Using the Timer”
• With the programs 10, 12 and 13, you enter the processing time. In this case, the time flashes on the LCD screen. You must confirm your time setting via the START/STOP button, before making other settings or starting the program. In all cases, you select the time until your food is finished. Thus, the minimum and maximum time duration depends on the currently selected program. To use this function, first select the desired program (MENU) and, if applicable, the WEIGHT and degree of browning (CRUST COLOR). Then adjust the time.
Tip: With your finger kept on the button, the time setting will run automatically until you remove your finger.
BAKE| This button will directly call the baking program (13). Simply touch this button and then the START/STOP button to select and start program 13.
Important: Timer operation is not available with the Bake program (13). Instead, you may change the baking time via the +TIME and – TIME buttons. Default: 30 minutes.
MIX| This button is the direct way for selecting program Mix (9). Simply touch this button and the START/STOP button for selecting and starting program 9.
START/ STOP| This START/STOP button starts the selected program or pauses / cancels the currently running program or the keep warm function. For cancelling a program, keep your finger on the button until a signal sounds (approx. 3 seconds).
Note: When cancelling a program, all settings are deleted. There is no way to continue the recently used program.
Thus, only touch this button shortly, if you wish to pause operation and add further ingredients.
Alternatively, unplug the appliance for no longer than 10 minutes.
SETTINGS| Select the Homemade program (14). With the Homemade program selected, this button switches through the various program phases of the Bread Maker to enable the input of your own program. The current phase and number is shown on the LCD screen. Use the +TIME and -TIME buttons to program the desired time duration for
each phase. See: “Programming Your Own Settings”.
For additional information on the individual program phases, see “Program Phases” and “Programming Your Own Settings”.

PROGRAMS OF THE BREAD MAKER

You select the desired program by touching the MENU button. The corresponding program number is shown on the LCD screen. The processing time depends on the selected program. See: “Program Phases”.

rye flour. The bread has a compact consistency. You can adjust the browning via the CRUST COLOR button.
2| French bread| For light breads made from fine flour. Special timing and temperature make the bread fluffy and produce a crispy crust. Not suitable for baking recipes requiring butter, marge or milk.
3| Whole wheat bread| For yeast breads with heavy varieties of flour, for example, containing a significant portion (50 %
and more) of whole wheat flour. Breads with whole wheat flour are more nutritious, because the flour  is milled from the entire wheat, including the bran and germ. This flour produces a brown
to dark brown bread (with only whole wheat flour used). The breads are more flavourful and healthful. However, the bread will be more compact and heavy.
4| Sweet bread| For bread with additional ingredients (e.g. fruit juices, grated coconut, raisins, dried fruits, chocolate, or sugar) causing a high content of sugar, fat, and proteins. These ingredients produce a darker
crust.
Due to a longer phase of rising the bread will be light and airy.
5| Gluten free bread| The ingredients to create gluten free breads are unique. While this is a yeast bread, the dough is generally wetter and more like a batter. It is also crucial not to over-mix or over-knead gluten free  dough. There is only one rise phase, and due to the high content of moisture, the baking time is increased. All ingredients must be added at the very beginning of the program cycle.
6| Quick bread| Kneading, rising and baking is performed in a very fast way. But the baked bread is usually small, rough and dense.
7| Fruit bread| This setting will bake the bread normally. Fill dry and not sticky fruits and nuts into the ingredients box that will automatically release the ingredients at the right time. However, fill wet, fresh and sticky
ingredients (e.g. fresh fruits, candied orange peel) directly into the bread pan, as soon as the signal sounds. This way, the ingredients are baked evenly into the bread.
8| Cake| Kneading, rising and baking are programmed for making cake. However, soda and baking powder
is used for rising. The WEIGHT button is not available with this program.
9| Mix| For preparing cake mixtures. In this program NO rising and NO baking is done. The buttons WEIGHT and CRUST COLOR are inactive.
10| Knead| For kneading of a somewhat heavier dough only. NO rising and NO baking is done. Used for making dough for pizzas, noodles, and rolls. You may adjust the processing time via the +TIME or -TIME buttons. No Timer operation is available. The buttons WEIGHT and CRUST COLOR are inactive.
11| Dough| For kneading and rising yeast dough WITHOUT baking. Remove the dough after processing. Use this program for making dough for bread rolls, pizza, steamed bread, etc.
The buttons WEIGHT and CRUST COLOR are inactive.
12| Ice Cream| Use this program exclusively for making ice cream in the ice bucket.
See: “Making Ice Cream”. Via the +TIME or -TIME buttons, you may select the processing time: 20, 25, or 30 minutes. No Timer is operation available.
Note: The Ice Bucket is not included in common product because it is an accessory.
The Ice Cream Menu doesn’t work with the Bread Pan.
13| Bake| For additional baking of bread that is too light or not baked through.
In this program is no kneading or rising. For example, use this program for baking already prepared dough in portions of special shapes. You may adjust the processing time via the +TIME or -TIME
buttons. No Timer operation is available.
14| Homemade| This place in memory is reserved for your own baking program.
See: “Programming Your Own Settings”.

In some programs (1-8) an acoustic signal sounds during running and the ingredients box will open automatically. If your recipe demands the addition of further ingredients (e.g. fruits or nuts), you should add dry and coarsely chopped foodstuffs into the ingredients box and flour or wet, sticky ingredients immediately after the signal is heard.
To prematurely cancel a program or the keep warm function hold the START/STOP button touched for 3 seconds, until one long acoustic signal is heard. To switch off the appliance, disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

PROGRAM PHASES

The following table shows the processing times of the program phases in minutes. Different time entries for one single process indicate variations due to different settings of the loaf size (WEIGHT button) or browning (CRUST COLOR button).

KEEP WARM FUNCTION

At the end of the baking programs (1-9) the appliance automatically switches to a keep warm function for up to 60 minutes (1 hour). In this mode, the heating compartment is kept warm. Thus, the bread will not get moistened and soggy. You can cancel the keep warm function at any time by keeping the START/STOP button touched for more than 3 seconds until an acoustic signal sounds.

MEMORY FUNCTION

When being live again after a power failure of up to 10 minutes, the program will continue automatically from the same point. There is no need to touch the START/ STOP button. However, if the power cutoff lasts for more than 10 minutes, the actual baking program will be cancelled completely.
NOTE: After you have cancelled the baking process by pressing the START/STOP button at least 3 seconds, all previously entered settings will be lost. In this case, you must start the baking process again (see: “Tips for Best Results”). Thus, for short  interruptions (e.g. for adding further ingredients or pushing down the ingredients back to the kneading paddle) it is best to unplug the appliance or touch the START/STOP button only shortly for pausing operation for 3 minutes at the maximum. However, please keep in mind that the appliance will re-assume operation automatically after 3 minutes.
NOTE: If the program has not entered the rising phase at the moment the power supply cuts off for more than 10 minutes, you can start the program again, without filling in new ingredients. This way, in total, the dough will be kneaded for a somewhat longer time duration.

The program Homemade (14) is reserved for your own baking program. For each program phase, you can enter the desired time duration. To disable a program phase, simply enter the time duration 0:00. This way, you can put your own special baking ideas into
practice. The program phases and default time durations are given above (see: “Program Phases“).
NOTE: Your settings will be deleted from memory, after disconnecting the appliance from power supply for more than 10 minutes.
Thereafter, the defaults given in the table above will be active again.

1. Touch the SETTING button to call the Homemade program. The program number 14 and the currently programmed total processing time will be shown on the LCD screen.

2. Again touch the SETTING button to switch to the first program phase. The icon and number of the program phase will be shown with the pre-set time duration flashing.

3. Use the +TIME and -TIME buttons to set the desired time duration.

4. With the desired time duration flashing on the LCD screen, touch the SETTING button again to switch to the next program phase.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have programmed all program phases beginning with the first kneading phase up to the maximum keep warm time duration.
   TIP: When touching the START/STOP button during programming, the appliance will finish programming, showing the complete time duration of your program.

6. After programming, you can start your Homemade program by touching the START/STOP button.
   TIP: As with most other programs of the Bread Maker, you can start your Homemade program belatedly. After completing programming, simply touch the +TIME or -TIME buttons to apply the desired time delay. The icon of pre-set time will flash on the LCD screen to indicate that the time delay function is active and the time duration until finishing the baking process is shown. See below: “Using the Timer”.

USING THE TIMER

The timer function enables delayed baking. The shown time is always the time duration until completion for the currently active baking program. The maximum duration is 15 hours, indicated via 15:00. The minimum is the processing time of the currently selected baking program. With the timer active, the hourglass is shown on the LCD screen as an indicator for timer operation.
CAUTION: With the programs 10, 12 and 13 the timer function is not available. However, via the +TIME and -TIME buttons, the processing time will be set (e.g. the baking time with program 13). In contrast to this, the Timer setting for the programs 1-9, 11 and 14 will NOT change the processing time of any program phase of the baking program. Instead, the baking program will be started belatedly.
Thus, to avoid overheating of your ingredients, it is important to observe the pre-set time icon on the LCD screen especially when using the Bake program (13).
NOTE: However, if you have set the timer, you should put all the ingredients into the bread pan or ingredients box (coarsely chopped nuts, whole grain), before starting the program. In this case, however, fruits and nuts should always be cut into smaller pieces.
NOTE: Do not use the timer function when working with quickly spoiling ingredients such as eggs, milk, cream or cheese. The quality of these ingredients will degrade, when not cooled.

1. At first, select the program via the MENU button. Then adjust loaf size (WEIGHT button) and degree of browning (CRUST COLOR button), as these settings may affect the processing time. See: “Starting the Baking Process”.

2. Thereafter, use the +TIME and -TIME buttons to set the time duration until completion shown on the LCD screen. With the Timer active, the icon of pre-set time flashes on the LCD screen.
   TIP: The delay time is including the baking time of the chosen pro- gram. Thus, after the shown time elapsed, there is hot bread in the Bread Maker ready for being served after leaving it cool down for some minutes.

3. Touch the START/STOP button to start operation. The icon of pre-set time and the dots of the time display will flash on the LCD screen and a countdown will show the remaining time. You will have fresh bread at the desired time. If you don’t take out the bread immediately, the keep warm time of 1 hour starts. See: “Keep Warm Function”.

LOCKING THE CONTROL PANEL

You can disable the control panel to protect the bread maker from any unintended input.
Press the buttons WEIGHT and CRUST COLOR simultaneously to lock the control panel. A signal sounds an the is displayed on the LCD screen. Thereafter there will be no respond to touching any single button on the control panel.
IMPORTANT: By locking the control panel, you will disable even the START/STOP button!
To unlock the control panel, again press the buttons WEIGHT and CRUST COLOR simultaneously. The signal sounds and the disappears. The control panel is ready for your input again.

TIPS FOR BESTRESULTS

For a successful baking process, please consider the following factors:

• Never use larger quantities than those specified in this booklet. Do not fill in more than 1000 g in total. Too much dough can rise out of the bread pan and drop onto the hot heating elements, thus causing risk of overheating, fire and electric shock.
• One important step of making good bread is to measure the ingredients precisely. Even small deviations from the quantities specified in the recipe may affect the baking results. You should measure out the correct amount from liquids (water, milk, oil) via measuring cups or measuring spoons. When measuring oil, the measuring vessel must be completely dry. Solid ingredients (flour, sugar, nuts, etc.) should be measured via kitchen scales to obtain the correct amounts.
• If you do not have kitchen scales at hand, you may use measuring cups and spoons even for solid ingredients. However, the measuring vessel should provide an appropriate scale. This is crucial, as the weight of various solid ingredients differ in volume from the volume of water with the same weight. Spoon solid ingredients into the measuring vessel and level off the surface at the correct height. With most measuring vessels, do not tamper or heap the food in the measuring vessel. As this additional amount would influence the result considerably.
• Essential for good results is the order for putting the ingredients into the bread pan. Generally, you should first add all liquids, then sugar, salt, spices, and flavours. Thereafter, put flour on top of the liquids without stirring. Add yeast or baking powder/soda as the very last ingredient on top of the flour layer. Doing so, ensure that the yeast will not come in contact with salt and any liquids.
• During the baking programs 1-8, after kneading for a while, short acoustic signals will sound and the ingredients box will open automatically, emptying its content into the bread pan. However, some ingredients cannot be added via the ingredients box (very moist or sticky foodstuffs or powder). These ingredients must be added by opening the lid shortly, and pouring the ingredients directly into the bread pan.
• If fruits are added too soon, the flavour will evaporate during the mixing process. Thus, wait for the signal to add these ingredients.
• For several programs of the bread maker, you can set a delayed start of the program by using the timer (see: “Using the Timer”). If you have set the timer, you should put all the ingredients into the bread pan and/or ingredients box before starting the program. However, it is best to cut fruits and nuts into smaller pieces.
• Do NOT use the timer function, when working with perishable ingredients such as eggs, milk, cream or cheese. The quality of these ingredients will degrade, when not cooled.
• For preparing yeast dough, all ingredients should have room temperature (20 – 25 °C) to maintain an optimal rising result of the yeast.
• The bread will be kept warm for up to 1 hour after the end of the baking process. This prevents the bread from becoming too moist due to condensate. Take your bread out of the appliance during this warm-keeping period.
• Immediately rinse the bread pan with warm water after removing the bread. This prevents any food residues from accumulating on the drive shaft. Otherwise, the kneading paddle could stick to the drive shaft.
• If you remove the kneading paddle after the last kneading of the dough, the bread will remain intact, when you remove it from the bread pan.
• In the case of having cancelled a running baking program unintentionally (e.g. when adding further ingredients or removing the kneading paddle), you can finish the already prepared dough choosing the programs Knead, Mix or Dough for further preparation and/or Bake (No. 12) for baking according to your recipe. See also: “Programs of the Bread Maker” for the required processes, or “Applying Some Additional Baking Time”.

BREAD INGREDIENTS

Bread flour| Bread flour has a high content of gluten and a high ability to keep the size of the bread from collapsing after rise. As the gluten content is higher than the common flour, so it can be used for making bread with large size and better inner fibre.
Bread flour is the most important ingredient for making bread.
---|---
Plain flour| Flour that contains no baking powder. It is used for making Quick Bread.
Whole-wheat flour| Whole-wheat flour is ground from grain. It contains wheat skin and gluten.
Whole-wheat flour is heavier and more nutrient than common flour. The bread made by whole-wheat flour is usually small in size. Thus, many recipes usually combine whole-wheat flour and bread flour to achieve the best results.
Black wheat flour| Black wheat flour is also named as “rough flour”. It is a kind of high fibre flour and similar with whole-wheat flour. To obtain the large size after rising, it must be used in combination with a high proportion of bread flour.
Self-rising flour| A type of flour that contains baking powder, it is used for making cakes.
Corn flour and oatmeal flour| These types of flour are the additive ingredients of making rough bread, to enhance the flavour and texture.
Sugar| Sugar is very important to increase sweetness and colour of bread. And it is also considered as nourishment in the yeast bread. White sugar is largely used. Brown sugar, powder sugar or cotton candy sugar may be used by special requirements.
Yeast| The yeast will produce carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide will expand the dough and make the inner fibre soft. However, the yeast needs carbohydrate in sugar and flour as nourishment. Use the following notes as a role of thumb: 15 ml dry yeast 5 ml dry yeast
Yeast must be stored in the refrigerator, as the fungus in it will be killed at high temperature. Before using, check the production date and storage life of your yeast. Store it back in the refrigerator as soon as possible after each use. Usually the failure of bread rising is caused by
bad yeast.
To check, whether your yeast is fresh and active, use the following ways:
• Pour 118 ml cup warm water (45 – 50 °C) into a measuring cup.
• Put 1 teaspoonful white sugar into the water and stir, Then sprinkle 2 teaspoonful yeast over the water.
• Place the measuring cup in a warm place for approx. 10 minutes. Do not stir the water.
• The froth should be up to 1 cup. Otherwise, the yeast is dead or inactive.
Salt| Salt is necessary to improve bread flavour and crust colour. But salt can also restrain yeast from rising. Never use too much salt in a recipe. Without salt, the bread will be larger.
Egg| Eggs can improve bread texture, make the bread more nourish and large in size.
The egg must be stirred evenly without eggshell.
Fat, butter and vegetable oil| Fat makes bread soften and improve storage life. Butter should be melted and thereafter cooled down. Alternatively, cut butter or other solid fat into small pieces.
Baking powder| Baking powder is used for rising Ultra Fast Bread and cake, as it does not need any time for rising. It will produce carbon dioxide by a chemical process thus building bubbles in the dough and softening the texture of the bread.
Soda| Soda is similar with baking powder and can be used in combination with baking powder.
Water and other liquid| Water is an essential ingredient for making bread and cake. Generally, a water temperature between 20 °C and 25 °C is best. The water may be replaced with fresh milk or water mixed with 2 % milk powder. This may improve the bread flavour and crust colour.
Some recipes may use juice for the purpose of improving bread flavour (e.g. juices of apples, oranges, lemon, and others).

BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Remove all packaging materials.

2. Remove any film, paper or tape from the appliance.

3. Separate the Kneading Paddle (4) and Bread Pan (6) from the machine.
   CAUTION! To unlock the bread pan, turn it counterclockwise. Then lift it out of the heating compartment.
   WARNING! Make sure the machine is safely placed on a flat surface before removing the basket.

4.  Thoroughly clean the Kneading Paddle and Bread Pan with hot water, some washing-up liquid and a non-abrasive sponge.

5. Wipe inside and outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.

PREPARATIONS

1. Prepare your ingredients: Measure all required amounts according to your recipe. Doing so, ensure to observe the maximum amount (for bread and cake: 1000 g including all ingredients). Check your recipe accordingly. When adding nuts, fruit or other bulk ingredients, you should cut, chop or purée these ingredients.
   TIP: You can use the supplied measuring cups.

2. Place the appliance on a stable, level and heat-resistant surface with a distance of at least 30 cm to other objects and to the edge of the table or counter. Check, whether the appliance has a really stable stand and will not wobble or slip on the table or  ounter.
   IMPORTANT: The bread pan is locked on the coupling of the kneadingworks. Do not use violence when attempting to insert or remove the bread pan to avoid damage. Always ensure that the appliance cooleddown after the recent usage, before starting a new baking process.

3. Check that the exterior of the bread pan and the interior of the heating compartment are clean and dry and no ingredients are spilled into the heating compartment to avoid a burnt smell during operation and even risk of fire.

4. Open the lid, and place the bread pan into the appliance.Place the bread pan on the coupling of the kneading works and turn it until it slips down. Then turn the bread pan clockwise a little to lock it on the coupling. When installed correctly, the walls of the bread pan lay parallel to the walls of the heating compartment and the bread pan will stand stable.

5. Coat the drive shaft with a little marge or cooking oil. This will prevent the dough from sticking to the drive shaft and help to remove the kneading paddle after operation. Push the kneading paddle onto the drive shaft and turn it until it slips down. WARNING: Always avoid spilling any ingredients onto the heating elements in the heating compartment. During the baking process, even small particles on the heating elements would carbonize, thus causing risk of fire and at least a burnt smell!

6. Put the ingredients for your recipe in the correct order into the breadpan. In general: first add eggs and all liquids, then sugar, salt, spicesand flavours. Then add the solid ingredients (flour, cake mixture). Add yeast, soda, or baking powder as the very last ingredients.
   NOTE: Ensure that yeast, soda or baking powder will not come in contact with any liquids and salt. It is good advice to make a gentle hollow on top of the flour to add these ingredients.

7. Ensure that the inner flap of the ingredients box is closed. For this, slightly push the inner flap back into the lid. Close the lid gently.
   IMPORTANT: Carefully dab wet ingredients dry before filling into the ingredients box. Do not fill in too large or sticky ingredients, as this may block the inner flap of the ingredients box. Always chop or cut your ingredients to small pieces, but do not fill in finely ground ingredients, or any powder, or any runny food. For adding this type of ingredients, pause operation when the signal sounds and add your ingredients by opening the lid.

8. The ingredients box is perfectly suited for adding granular ingredients like sesame, linseed or coarsely chopped nuts. The appliance will open the inner flap of the ingredients box to leave the content fall into the bread pan. Open the slider of the ingredients box to fill in your food. Thereafter, close the slider.

STARTING THE BAKING PROGRAM

IMPORTANT: Always leave the appliance cool down, before starting a new baking process. If the display is showing H:HH after starting a new program, the temperature in the heating compartment is too high. In this case, immediately unplug the appliance and open the lid until the appliance has reached ambient temperature.

1. Prepare the appliance for operation according to the instructions  above and close the lid (see: “Preparation”).

2. Insert the power plug into the wall power outlet. (See: “Important Safeguards for Electrical Appliances”) An acoustic signal sounds and the LCD screen shows the program number 1 and the defaults of this baking program (operation time, colour and amount).
   TIP: The buttons respond even to slight touches. Simply tip on the buttons with your finger. A beep sounds with each entry. Names and numbers of the available programs are printed on the lid. The buttons of the appliance are inactive, whenever the respective function is not available with the currently selected program, or while a program is running, or when the control panel is locked (see: “Locking the Control Panel”). Running programs must be terminated first using the START/STOP button, when you wish to make new entries.

3. Select your desired program by slightly touching the MENU button. (See: “Programs of the Bread Maker”) Each input is confirmed by an acoustic signal.

4. Use the CRUST COLOR button to select the desired colour of your bread. The icon on the bottom of the LCD screen shows whether you have chosen light, medium, or dark.

5. Use the WEIGHT button to select the used total amount of all ingredients according to your recipe: 500 g, 750 g, or 1000 g.

6. Thereafter, if required, you can set the finishing time duration for the baking process via the timer function. You can enter a maximum delay of up to 15 hours. See: “Using the Timer”.
   IMPORTANT: If the display shows unusual information after the program has been started (H:HH or E:E0), then immediately unplug the appliance. See “Solving Problems” for further information.

7. With the desired settings on the LCD screen, start the baking program by touching the START/STOP button. The dots of the program time and the icon of the actual operating phase will flash. The program will automatically run various operations. During operation, only the START/STOP button is active. You can watch the process via the window in the lid of your Bread Maker. Occasionally, during various program phases, condensate could accumulate on the window.
   TIP: The appliance lid can be opened during kneading, for example, to add further ingredients. For this, you should pause operation (see: “Functions of the Buttons”). Use this way for adding powder and wet or sticky ingredients. However, you should avoid opening the lid during operation, if possible. This holds especially during the baking process, because the bread could collapse.

8. You can pause operation at any time by shortly touching the START/STOP button. The program time will flash on the LCD screen. The appliance will re-assume operation after 3 minutes automatically. Additionally, you can cancel operation at any time. For this, hold your finger on the START/STOP button for approx. 3 seconds, until a beep sounds. Any running program will be cancelled immediately and the current settings are deleted.
   TIP: You may store remainders of home-made bread in sealed plastic bags or containers for approx. 3 days on room temperature. In the refrigerator you may store bread for 10 days at the most. Generally, storage time is no longer than that for bread in market.

SPECIAL INTRODUCTION ABOUT QUICK BREAD

Quick Breads are made with baking powder and soda that are activated by moisture and heat. For perfect quick breads, it is essential that all liquids are placed on the bottom of the bread pan with dry ingredients on top. During the initial mixing of quick bread batters, dry ingredients may accumulate in the corners of the bread pan. Thus, it will be necessary to help the kneading process with mixing to avoid the build-up of flour clumps. For this, use a rubber spatula.

APPLYING SOME ADDITIONAL BAKING TIME

If the bread has not reached the desired consistency or browning or you have unintentionally cancelled the baking program untimely, you may apply some additional baking time of up to 1½ hours. For this, leave the bread in the Bread Maker and close the lid. TIP: To complete baking bread and cakes, you may need only some minutes of additional baking time. For this, start program 13 (Bake) immediately after the baking process finished. After the desired baking time, cancel the Bake program manually by holding the START/ STOP button pressed for approx. 3 seconds until the signal sounds.
NOTE: Before making any new entries, you must cancel any running program including the keep warm function. For this hold the START/ STOP button pressed for approx. 3 seconds until a signal sounds.

1. Touch the BAKE button to select the Bake program (13). The preset baking time (30 minutes) is shown on the LCD screen.

2. Using the buttons +TIME and/or -TIME select the desired baking time. You can select baking times from 10 minutes to 1½ hour (1:30) in steps of 5 minutes.

3. With the desired baking time flashing on the LCD screen, shortly touch the START/STOP button to confirm your choice.
   IMPORTANT: The baking time will flash on the LCD screen and the other buttons will be locked, after pressing +TIME or -TIME. You must confirm your choice via the START/STOP button, before you can make any other settings or start the program.

4. Press the START/STOP button to start the program. The Bread Maker will heat the heating compartment for the selected duration. Thereafter a signal sounds and the Bread Maker switches to the keep warm function automatically.

USING THE ICE BUCKET

NOTE: The Ice Bucket is not included in common product because it is an accessory. The Ice Cream Menu doesn’t work with the Bread Pan.
WARNING: The ice bucket is filled with a cooling agent and is intended for usage in a refrigerator or freezer and may never be heated. Do not use the ice bucket, gear box, and stirring paddle with any program of the appliance other than the Ice Cream program
12! Do not bring the ice bucket, gear box, and stirring paddle in contact with hot surfaces or hot liquids. Do not use the ice bucket in combination with any heating program of the bread maker. The coolant within the ice bucket would expand forcefully when heated, thus bursting the ice bucket and causing risk of severe injuries and damage. Additionally, the plastic parts of the ice bucket, gearbox and stirring paddle are sensitive to heat and will get distorted and damaged when heated.
When taking the ice bucket out of the freezer, please keep in mind, that it will be extremely cold. Protect your hands with gloves. Under no circumstances touch the ice bucket with wet hands, when it has been in the freezer. Your skin would freeze immediately on  the cold surfaces, causing severe burns and injuries.
The coolant within the ice bucket can maintain a low temperature for several hours. For this, pre-cool the ice bucket in the freezer for several hours (overnight).
Always place the ice bucket on a level surface in an upright position into the freezer with the freezing temperature not below -18 °C.
Additionally, do not position the ice bucket upside down or tilted, or directly on delicate frozen food in the freezer.
TIP: The ice bucket is ready for usage, when the coolant within will not gurgle, while shaking the ice bucket (after 16 hours of cooling at the maximum).
You can use the ice bucket in various ways:

• Keep your drinks and beverages (e.g. wine, lemonade) cold for several hours.
• Store ice cubes or crushed ice for various hours.
• Additionally, using the Ice Cream program (12) of the “Bistro Bread Maker”, you can prepare ice cream.

TIP: Place the ice bucket in the freezer overnight and use it through the day.

MAKING ICE CREAM

How to Prepare the Ingredients:
IMPORTANT: The volume of all ingredients should not exceed half of the maximum volume of the ice bucket (approx. 300-350 ml) to avoid overflow due to ice cream expansion while stirring. Adapt your recipe accordingly.

1. Egg yolk may be added to make your ice cream somewhat softer and smoother. Beat the egg yolk with sugar until it is creamy. Use granulated sugar, as this type is easily dissolved.
2. Heat the milk in a pot until it slightly boils. Then, slowly scoop the milk into the beaten egg yolk while stirring vigorously. However, do not pour the heated milk into the egg yolk all at once, to avoid that the egg yolk will set and get lumpy.
3. Heat the mixture until it slightly boils. Then leave the mixture cool down to room temperature. Place the mixture in the refrigerator until the mixture is chilled to approx. 5 °C.
4. Pour the chilled cream in a pre-cooled container and whip the cream until it is slightly creamy. Then mix cream and the cold milk mixture.
5. To make your individual ice cream, mix the ice cream mixture with puréed ripe fruits, juices, finely chopped, roasted nuts or almonds, vanilla, nougat cream, molten chocolate, or instant coffee dissolved in a little milk. Add further flavour to taste.
6. Before freezing in the ice bucket, chill the mixture in the refrigerator to at least + 5 °C.

How to Freeze the Ice Cream:

1. The ice bucket should have been in the freezer for up to 16 hours in an upright position. Do not place the ice bucket upside down or lay or tilt it. Ensure that the temperature of the freezer is sufficiently low (at least -18 °C). The ice bucket is cooled sufficiently, when you do not hear any gurgle while shaking it.

2. The ingredients should be prepared according to your recipe and the instructions above and cooled in the refrigerator to approx. + 5 °C.

3. Place the gearbox with the black drive wheel upwards into the heating compartment of the “Bistro Bread Maker”. Turn the gearbox clockwise to lock it in the heating compartment. The gearbox must stand stable and may not tilt or wobble.

4. Protect your hands with gloves and take the ice bucket out of the freezer. Place the ice bucket onto the gearbox and turn it clockwise to lock it safely onto the gearbox. Push the stirring paddle onto the drive shaft in the centre of the ice bucket.

5. Connect the Bread Maker to the power supply and select the Ice Cream program (12) via the MENU button.

6. Using the +TIME and -TIME buttons, select the desired stirring time according to your recipe. The time shown on the LCD screen will flash. You can select 20, 25 or 30 minutes. Touch the START/STOP button to confirm your choice.

7. Touch the START/STOP button again shortly to start the program.
   IMPORTANT: Do not fill in hot ingredients. All ingredients should be at refrigerator temperature, when filled into the ice bucket.

8. As soon as the stirring paddle is rotating, shortly stir your pre- cooled ice cream mixture and slowly fill it into the ice bucket. Thereafter close the lid of the Bread Maker and wait until the acoustic signal sounds.

9. Unplug the Bread Maker and open the lid. Protect your hands with gloves and turn the ice bucket clockwise to unlock it. Then take the ice bucket out of the heating compartment.
   IMPORTANT: Do not use any hard or sharp-edged objects for taking out your ice cream. Do not use violence. Use a soft plastic spatula or plastic spoon.

10. Using a plastic spoon, take your ice cream out of the ice bucket.
    Clean the ice bucket after each usage (see: “Care and Cleaning”).
    TIP: The ice cream is soft. If you wish it somewhat harder, place the ice cream into the freezer for ½ hour before consumption. You may store ice cream for approx. 1 week in an air-tight container in the freezer.
