2. Place ingredients into the bread pan. Please keep to the order mentioned in the recipe.
   Usually the water or liquid substance should be put firstly, then add sugar, salt and flour, always add yeast or baking powder as the last ingredient.
   Note: the maximum quantities of the flour and yeast and other ingredients which may be used refer to the recipe.

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

• Take the baking pan out of the housing, before putting in the ingredients. If ingredients reach the baking area, a fire may be caused by them heating up on the heating elements.
• Always put the ingredients in the stated order into the baking pan.
• All ingredients should have room temperature to maintain an optimal rising result of the yeast.
• Measure the ingredients precisely. Even negligible deviations from the quantities specified in the recipe may affect the baking results.

Note
Never use larger quantities than those specified . Too much dough can rise out of the baking pan and drop on to the hot heating elements, causing a fire.

Starting a Program

Now start the program using the Start/Stop button.
The program will automatically run various operations. You can watch the program sequence via the window of your bread baking machine. Occasionally, condensation may occur during baking in the window. The appliance lid can be opened during kneading.
Note
Do not open the appliance lid during baking. The bread can collapse.
Tip: After 5 minutes of kneading, check the consistency of the dough. It should be a soft, sticky lump. If it is too dry, add some liquid to it. If it is too moist, add some flour (1/2 to 1 teaspoon one or more times, as needed).
Ending a program
When the baking process has been completed, ten acoustic signals are issued and the display indicates 0:00. At the end of the program the appliance automatically changes to a warming mode for up to 60 minutes. In this mode, warm air circulates inside the appliance. You can prematurely terminate the warming function by keeping the Start/Stop button pressed until two acousitc signals are heard. The “keep warm” phase does not apply to program 4,7,10 or 13.
Warning
Before opening the appliance lid, pull the power plug out of the wall socket. When not in use, the appliance should never be plugged in!
Taking out the bread
When taking out the baking pan, always use pot holders or oven gloves. Hold the baking pan tilted over a grid and shake lightly until the bread slides out of the baking pan. If the bread does not slip off the kneading paddles, carefully remove the kneading paddles using the enclosed kneading paddle remover.
Note
Do not use any metal objects that may lead to scratches on the non-stick coating. After removing the bread, immediately rinse the baking pan with warm water. This prevents the kneading paddles from sticking to the driving shaft.
Tip: If you remove the kneading paddles after the last kneading of the dough, the bread will remain intact when you remove it from the baking pan.

• Briefly press the Start/Stop button, to interrupt the baking process or pull the power plug out of the wall socket.
• Open the appliance lid and take out the baking pan. You can take the dough out with floured hands and remove the kneading paddles.
• Replace the dough and close the appliance lid.

Warning
Do not attempt to start operating the bread maker, before it has either cooled down or warmed up. If the display shows “HHH” after the program has been started, it means that the temperature inside of bread pan is too high. You should stop the program and unplugged the power outlet immediately. Then open the lid and let the machine cool down completely before using again . If the display shows “EE0” after you have pressed Start/Stop button,Switch off the main switch and disconnect the mains plug, then insert the mains plug again and switch on the main switch ,if the error message is still displayed,please contact Customer service.

Cleaning and Care

Warning

to an electric shock. Please also observe the safety instructions.
Important
The parts and accessories of the appliance should not be washed in a dish washing machine.
Casing, lid, baking chamber
Remove all particles left behind inside the baking area using a wet cloth or a slightly wet soft sponge. Wipe the casing and the lid too with a wet cloth or sponge. Make sure that the inside area is fully dry. For easy cleaning, the appliance lid can be removed from the housing:

• Open the appliance lid to a suitable angle and lift up to remove it.
• Pull the appliance lid out of the hinge guides.
• To attach the appliance lid, pass the wedge-shaped hinge tappets through the opening in the hinge guides.

Baking pans and kneading paddles
The surfaces of the baking pans and kneading paddles have a nonstick coating. While cleaning, do not use any abrasive detergents, cleaning powders or objects that may cause scratches on the surface. Due to moisture and vapor the surface of various parts may undergo changes in their appearance over a period of time. This does not affect the quality or functional performance of the appliance. Before cleaning, take the baking pans and kneading paddles out of the baking area. Wipe the outside of the baking pans with a damp cloth.
Important
Never immerse the baking pans in water or other liquids. Clean the interior of the baking pans with warm, soapy water. If the kneading paddles are incrusted and hard to release, fill the baking pan with hot water for approx. 30 minutes. If the retainer in the kneading paddle is clogged, you can clean it carefully with a wooden skewer. Do not use any chemical cleaning agents or thinners to clean the bread maker.
