USING THE TIMER
You can preset your Breadman$ to cook bread from 2:50 to
13 hours in advance.
Note: Don't use the Timer if your recipe includes eggs, fresh
milk or other ingredients that may spoil. The Breadmanl!l
Timer can't be used for Fruit & Nut, Batter Bread
™
or
Dough cycles.
To preset your
Breadman~
follow these steps:
1. Add the ingredients as usual, taking care not to let the
yeast and liquid ingredients contact one another.
2. Close the Breadman$ Lid and plug it in.
3. Select the Baking Cycle you want. The time needed for the
selected Baking Cycle appears in the Display Window.

4. Press the@Timer button once for each 10 minutes you
want to add. (Use the
(i)
button to subtract time from the
Timer.) The amount of time you set is shown in the
Display Window.
• For example, if it is 8 o'clock and you want a loaf of bread
ready at 1 o'clock, press the
@
Timer button until the
display reads 5:00, meaning it will finish baking in
five hours.
5. Press Start to begin the Timer. The Timer Indicator begins
to flash, letting you know the Timer is started. When the
Display Window indicates 0:00, baking is completed and
Complete Indicator blinks.
For Best Results
• Take care to measure ingredients accurately, using a good
set of measuring cups and spoons, or a good scale. Make
sure to level all dry ingredients as you measure them.
Inaccurate measuring could cause unexpected results in
your loaf of bread.
• In particular, be precise in measuring the water.
• Take care not to add more than 4 cups of flour per loaf.
Excess flour will cause the bread to bake incompletely and
the dough to stick to the inside of the Lid.
• After placing all the ingredients in the Baking Pan, wait 10
minutes before pressing Start, or use the Timer to add 10
minutes to the total processing cycle.
• Use fresh ingredients.
• Since moisture is an enemy to flour, be sure to store
your flour in an airtight container.
• To keep your yeast active, store it in an airtight
container in your refrigerator.
• Speaking of fresh - when using the Timer, we recommend
setting it for as short a time as possible. Because ingredients
are partially combined in the Bread Pan, the dough may
tend to deteriorate if left too many hours, especially on a
warm or humid day.
• Keep the Lid closed during the Baking cycle. Opening it
causes uneven baking.
• After your bread has cooled completely, store it in a plastic
bag or plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out.
