BEFORE THE FIRST USE

• Clean your bread maker, bread pan and kneading paddle with a damp cloth. The bread pan and
  the kneading paddle both have a non-stick coating to prevent dough from sticking to it. You must therefore never clean these parts with cleaning products, a sponge or a dishwashing brush. A damp cloth will do to clean them. Remove the protective film from the display.

• It is perfectly common and harmless for your appliance to emit a bit of smoke when you use it for the first time.

• Before the first use it is recommended to first bake with an empty bread pan with the program BAKE. This for 10 minutes. Afterwards, let everyting cool down and clean the parts again.

USE

BASIC RECIPE
The recipe below is for a loaf of simple white bread.

• 630 g flour
• 370 ml water
• 5 g of dried yeast
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp sugar

INGREDIENTS
Baking a great bread will largely depend on 3 main factors: quality, freshness and correct measurement of quantities.
Caution: never exceed the maximum capacity of your bread maker! (1000 g) Never use more than these maximum quantities of the following ingredients for 1 baking session:

• Flour: 715 g max.
• Yeast: 22 g fresh yeast or 4+1/4 teaspoons dry yeast max.
• Water: 460 ml max.

FLOUR
Flour is the basic component of bread. The weight of the flour varies, depending on the type of flour used. It is therefore absolutely neccesary that you weigh the right quantity on a pair of scales. Please make sure you buy a variety of flour which is suitable for bread making. Check the packaging.

GLUTEN
Gluten is a natural ingredient of flour and stimulates the bread to rise.

YEAST
Yeast is a micro-organism found on several vegetable foodstuffs. Yeast converts sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide. This ability is ideal for the bread to rise and to make it lighter and easier to digest. We recommend the use of dry yeast for this bread maker. This (granular) yeast is easier to work with, keeps for a longer time than fresh yeast and generally gives you a better result as well.

SALT
Salt does not only lend the bread a certain flavour but equally regulates the activity of the yeast, strengthens the dough and prevents the bread from rising too hard.

BUTTER / OIL
Butter and oil improve the general taste of the bread and equally soften it. Butter or oil should both be at room temperature when you add them to the other ingredients.

SUGAR
Sugar is the nutritional source for the yeast and is of great importance for the bread’s rising process. You can use plain white sugar, brown sugar, syrup or honey. Sugar lends the bread a certain soft and delicate flavour, increases its nutritional value and also renders the bread less perishable. Attention: you should not use unrefined sugar or sugar lumps, when you want to make e.g. cinnamon bread, for they can damage the non-stick coating of the bread pan.

WATER
When the flour mixes with the water, the gluten will form and air can no longer enter, thus enabling the bread to rise. At normal temperature you should use tepid water (± 20 à 25 °C) to make bread: cold water will not activate the yeast and warm water will achieve the opposite result.

MILK
Milk adds greatly to the colour of the bread (brown for the crust, creamy on the inside), improves the overall taste of the bread and increases its nutritional value. Should you choose to use fresh milk, do not forget to reduce the amount of water, in order to maintain the right level of humidity.

Attention: do not use fresh milk if you are going to choose the baking program with the time delay function, for the milk could turn sour.

OTHER INGREDIENTS
Always use fresh ingredients. When you want to use nuts, sunflower seeds, dried fruit or similar ingredients, we recommend that they be soaked in water and dried before adding them to the dough. Always ensure these ingredients are not too large, for they may damage the non-stick coating.

PROGRAMS

1. Basic
   This is the program most commonly used to make a regular white loaf of bread.

2. French
   With this type of baking program, the time to knead and to rise will be longer than this of the first program. The result is a crisper crust and a lighter texture.

3. Whole wheat
   This program is most suitable for the confection of heavier types of bread, such as wholemeal bread or multi-grain bread. Generally, these types of bread tend to be slightly smaller than regular white bread, due to the bigger weight of the flour. It is best not to use the time delay function with this program, since the results might not be as good.

4. Quick
   For kneading, rising and baking bread with baking soda or baking powder. The result usually is a smaller bread with a denser texture. It is recommended that you briefly stir the ingredients with a wooden spoon before you press start.

5. Sweet
   Suitable for making raisin bread etc.

6. Ultra Fast-I
   With this program you can make a delicious, 700 gram loaf of fresh white bread of within one hour. The water you add must be between 48°C and 50°C. For best results, use a culinary thermometer.

7. Ultra Fast-II
   With this program you can make a delicious, 1000 gram loaf of fresh white bread of within one hour. The water you add must be between 48°C and 50°C. For best results, use a culinary thermometer.

8. Dough
   Select this program if you just want the bread maker to make dough and let it rise. It is best not to use the time delay function with this program, since the results might not be as good.

9. Gluten free
   This program allows you to make gluten free bread.

10. Cake
    This program allows you to make bread that is confected with e.g. baking powder. With this type of baking program, your loaf of bread will be less high and more solid. You can not use the time delay function with this program, because the baking powder starts working immediately. If you use this  program to bake a cake, we recommend that you put the ingredients in the bread pan, program the bread maker and briefly stir the ingredients with a wooden spoon before pressing the ‘start/stop‘ button.

11. Sandwich
    Select this program to make a very light white dough suitable for e.g. little bread rolls. Please note! With this program you cannot set a crust colour, the machine will do so itself.

12. Bake
    For ready-made dough which you perhaps had already made in advance. This program can only be used for the final stage of the baking process. Program 12 also allows you to reheat bread that you had already baked.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Take the bread pan out of the bread maker, by turning it a quarter of a turn to the right. You can lift the bread pan out, straight up, by pulling the handle.

2. Place the kneading paddle on the axis in the bread pan. Please position the kneading paddle carefully and appropriately, so all ingredients can be sufficiently mixed and kneaded.

3. When putting the ingredients into the bread pan, please do so in the following manner and order:

4. Water / milk

5. Butter / oil

6. Eggs (optional)

7. Salt (salt on one side)

8. Sugar (put the sugar on the opposite side)

9. Flour

10. Yeast (concentrate the yeast in a little hole in the middle)

11. Remove all remnants of the ingredients on the outside of the bread pan. Put the bread pan back in the bread maker. Turn the bread pan clockwise so it locks into place.

12. Close the lid.

13. Plug in the appliance.

14. Select the program you require, using the ‘menu’ button. Each input is confirmed by a bleeping signal.

15. Select the colour of the crust (light, medium or dark) with the ‘crust’ button. Select the weight of your bread with the ‘loaf size’ button.

16. Program the time delay function, if so desired.

17. Press the ‘start/stop’ button. The colon will start flashing, which indicates the bread maker has started the process. When you have programmed the time delay function, the program will start after the programmed time delay has expired.

18. When your bread is ready, the machine will beep. Keep the ‘start/stop’ button pressed down for
    a few seconds. The appliance will beep again to confirm the baking process has been terminated. Disconnect the plug from the power socket and open the lid of the bread maker. Put on oven mitts in order to remove the bread pan from the bread maker.

19. Allow the bread to cool down for approximately 10 minutes. Turn the bread pan upside down above the sink and gently shake it to remove the bread. Please make sure the bread and the bread pan are never placed on the exterior of the appliance. Nor must they ever be placed directly on a plastic table-cloth. Should you have difficulty removing the bread from the bread pan, carefully  turn the kneading paddle at the bottom of the bread pan until the bread comes loose. If a kneading paddle should get stuck in the bread, try and remove it as gently as you can. If necessary, you can allow the bread to cool down a little more so you can remove the kneading paddle with your hands afterwards. Beware that you only touch the kneading paddle with your hands if it has sufficiently cooled down. We recommend that you wait 15 to 20 minutes before cutting the bread.

ENVIRONMENTAL GUIDELINES

EXTRA: in case you should not make it home in time, the bread maker will continue to heat the bread for another 60 minutes. This additional time is not included in the program time. Press the ‘start/stop’ button for a few seconds, if you want to interrupt this part of the process. If you leave the bread in the bread maker for more than an hour, it will become moist. Rinse the bread pan immediately with warm water, after you’ve taken out the bread, to make sure the kneading paddles don’t keep stuck to the axle. Do not activate the bread maker, if the appliance hasn’t cooled down or warmed up yet. During the kneading process of the programs Basic, French, Whole wheat, Sweet, Sandwich, Gluten free, you will hear a beep. This beep means it is the right time to add extra ingredients such as nuts, raisins, etc. You just open the lid, add the ingredients, close the lid again and the kneading process will be continued.

REMOVING THE KNEADING PADDLE BEFORE BAKING
You can remove the kneading paddle, after the dough has been kneaded for the last time.

1. Shortly press the ‘start/stop’ button to interrupt the baking process or disconnect the plug from the power socket.
2. Open the lid and take out the bread pan. Take out the dough with floured hands and remove the kneading paddle.
3. Place the dough back in the bread pan and close the lid.
4. Insert the plug into the power socket and press the ‘start/stop’ button. The program will be continued.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning your bread maker, please make sure it’s no longer activated, it has sufficiently cooled down and the plug has been disconnected from the power socket.

EXTERIOR
Clean the outside of the appliance and the lid with a damp cloth or sponge. Take out the bread pan before you start cleaning. If necessary, you can clean the outside of the appliance using a mild detergent. The lid can be removed for easy cleaning.

INSIDE
The inside of the device can be carefully cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. Be careful when cleaning the heater element.

LOAF TIN
The loaf tin can be cleaned with warm water. Make sure that you do not damage the non-stick coating. If it is not possible to remove the dough hook from the loaf tin, let the tin cool completely. Pour a little warm water into the loaf tin so that the dough hook is under water. The water will now ensure that the sticky particles dissolve and the dough hook can be removed. Do not use detergents or washing up brushes as they can damage the non-stick coating of the loaf tin. The loaf tin is not suitable for cleaning in the dishwasher.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

very important to achieve a good result. Also, different brands of flour can give different results. The best way to learn to use the device is to use it. We recommend that you

try the basic recipe. A ready-made bread mix is another great way to get started. If this does not help, please contact our customer service department.

·      The ingredients have not been accurately weighed.

·      The ingredients are not fresh.

·      The ingredients are not at room temperature.

Can I check whether the dough is working during the process?| The dough should look like a smooth, elastic round ball. After 5 to 10 minutes (during kneading), open the lid and touch the top of the dough ball with your fingers. The dough should stick to your fingers a little. If the dough is too sticky, it is too moist and you need to add some flour. If the dough does not stick at all, it is too dry and you need to add a little water. Do not open the lid while rising. This could cause the bread to collapse.
I want to bake several loaves of bread one after the other.| Allow the appliance to cool for 20 minutes with the lid open. A heated device will cause the yeast to start working too quickly, which will harm the result.
The bread has collapsed.| ·      If the bread seems to have collapsed on all sides, this means that the dough was too moist. Try adding a little less water. When using preserved fruit or vegetables, drain it well and rub dry before using. It has been soaked for a long time, meaning it will contain excess moisture.

·      You can try using a lighter flour variety.

·      It may also have risen too much. The dough has risen so much that it cannot cope with the rising. Try to add a little less yeast (1 to 2 grams). If the dough has risen too fast, it may have risen out of the loaf tin at the top. Unplug the device and let it cool off. Then clean the heating element.

The inside of the loaf is not ready.| If the bread is too soft in the middle, this may be due to the type of flour used. This is usually the result of using heavier flours, such as rye flour or wholemeal flour. Try using one more kneading process when using these types of flours. When the bread maker has finished the first kneading process, stop the machine. Then reset the unit and press Start. The machine will start kneading again; there will now be a larger amount of air in the dough.
---|---
The bottom of the bread is too thick.| You left the bread in the appliance a bit longer with the warming function on. The water will evaporate, giving you a thicker bottom. Remove the bread from the appliance immediately after the program.
The bread has

overflowed.

| ·      You used too much yeast.

·      The yeast has been too strongly activated, e.g. by too much sugar or too high a temperature.

H:HH appears on the display.| The unit is still too hot. Allow the appliance to cool first.
E:RR appears on the display.| There is a problem with the temperature sensor. Send the device to our after-sales service.
L:LL appears on the display.| The unit is too cold. This could happen if you always store the device in a

cold place (e.g. In the cellar). Let the unit warm up for a moment.

Why can’t I add extra ingredients at the start of the program?| The extra ingredients (such as currants or nuts), will be kneaded to pieces and the bread will not be kneaded properly. It will also affect the rising. Only add the extra ingredients once the appliance beeps, after kneading/ rising.
Can I use milk instead of water?| Yes! Always make sure that the complete volume of moisture is correct. The ratio of milk and water makes no difference.
The crust is sometimes lighter and sometimes darker.| These can be selected with the ‘Colour’ button. Preparations with more sugar will also make the crust darker.
The bread machine is kneading slower than normal.| This can happen with heavy flours, causing the engine to work harder. However, this is not a problem for the machine. Add a tablespoon of liquid.
The kneading paddle is stuck in the baking mould.| Remove the bread from the mould. Fill the mould with warm water and leave to soak for 15 minutes. The stuck dough will come loose.
There is condensation on the inside of the inspection window.| This is normal. This is due to the heat.
I used a ready-made mix, but the bread still came out wrong.| Before sending the device in for repair, we recommend that you try the basic recipe again. Ready-made mixes can sometimes also contain ingredients that produce poor results.
