HOW TO USE DOUGH SETTING
The DOUGH setting will prepare dough for you for hand shaping/forming and baking in your own oven.
Use this setting when you wish to make dinner rolls, cinnamon rolls, donuts, bread sticks or even traditional
shaped loaves of bread. The Delay Start Timer CANNOT be used for the DOUGH setting nor can the
Bread Color button be activated as the dough will not be baked.
Follow these steps for using the DOUGH setting:
1. Place knead bar on shaft in bottom of bread pan, matching the opening of the knead bar with the shape
of the shaft. Make sure knead bar is pushed down onto shaft and the shaft area is clean.
2. Add ingredients to pan in order listed in recipe, MAKING SURE to add any liquid ingredients fi rst,
followed by dry ingredients, then butter or margarine and lastly the yeast. After dry ingredients are added
to the pan, tap the pan several times to level the dry ingredients, then push some of the flour mixture
into the corners of pan to prevent any liquid from seeping up from the corners. Add the yeast to the very
center of pan, making a very slight well in the flour as an extra precaution to prevent the yeast from
getting wet.
3. Lock bread pan into bread maker, turning the pan counterclockwise to lock in place. Pan must be locked
in place for the bread maker to function properly. Make sure handle of pan is down, then close cover.
4. Plug bread maker cord into a 120 volt AC electric outlet ONLY. Press the Bread Select button until the
word DOUGH appears in the display along with the process time of 1:20 (1 hour, 20 minutes). If you pass
by the DOUGH setting, continue to press the Bread Select button until DOUGH appears.
5. Press START/STOP button once to turn bread maker on. When turned on, the red light under the word
ON will glow. Press LOCK button once to 'lock' program into control. The word 'lock' will appear
in display.
After the bread maker is turned on, the colon between 1:20 will begin to flash. In addition, the word
KNLAD will appear in the display and the ingredients will begin to mix, and then go into a constant
knead. After the KNLAD cycle is complete, the dough will then RISE for about 55 minutes and then be
kneaded down. At this time, 0:00 will appear in the display and an audible alert will sound to let you know
the dough is done. It must then be removed from the pan for hand shaping and the fi nal rise before baking
in your oven. The bread maker will automatically turn itself off after the dough cycle is complete. The red
signal light will go out and the program 'lock' will automatically be released when the bread maker turns
off. Unplug cord from electric outlet after cycle is complete. Lollow directions to complete recipe.
CLEAN AFTER EACH USE
SPECIAL NOTE: The bread pan is not immersible and should never be
washed in an automatic dishwasher. Immersing the pan in water can cause
damage to the bearing in the bottom of the pan that turns the knead bar,
plus dishwasher cleaning can reduce the release qualities of the non-stick
fi nish, causing the bread to stick to the pan.
Do not immerse bread pan in water or put
pan in automatic dishwasher to clean.
1. Unplug cord from electric outlet.
2. The bread pan and knead bar must be cleaned after each use. After the bread is removed from the pan,
fill the bread pan with warm water to cover the knead bar. Set pan in a dry sink or on a pot holder and
allow the pan and knead bar to soak for 5 to 10 minutes for easier removal. Then lift the knead bar out
of bread pan.
Add a small amount of dishwashing detergent to the pan and wash the interior with a soft cloth or sponge.
Wash the knead bar in the same manner. Empty the bread pan and rinse the inside of pan and the knead
bar with warm water and dry with a soft cloth. Always make sure the center shaft area in the bottom of
the pan is kept clean. Do not use any type of utensil or tool to clean the gasket around the shaft in bottom
of pan as damage will occur and result in leakage.
Do not use any abrasive scouring pads or cleansers on bread pan or knead bar as damage to the non-stick
coating can occur.
The coating on the inside of the bread pan may change color over time which is normal and does not affect
the bread or dough prepared.
CAUTION: To prevent the risk of electric shock, do not immerse bread maker base, its cord or plug
in water or other liquid.
3. Wipe the inside of the chamber and the outside surfaces of the bread maker with a damp cloth and
dry with a soft cloth if necessary. If necessary, remove the cover for cleaning by opening about 45°, then
sliding the cover toward you. Wipe cover with a damp soapy cloth and dry. Do not immerse cover in water
or place in automatic dishwasher for cleaning as water will get in between the parts and can cause damage.
After cleaning, replace cover by aligning bar on back of cover into hinge openings on back of bread maker
base. Cover should move freely up and down after being replaced.
