Basic Steps In Making Bread - West Bend 41200 Mode D'emploi

•
A small amount of smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the
release of manufacturing oils – this is normal.
•
Some minor expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and
cooling – this is normal.
Always clean your new appliance thoroughly before using. Refer to "Cleaning
Your Automatic Breadmaker" section.
1. Position the knead blade on to the shaft in the bottom of the bread pan, matching
the hub shape with the shaft shape. You may need to turn the blade slightly for it to
drop in place. Make sure the knead blade is pushed down on the shaft all the way.
2. Add ingredients to the bread pan in the order listed in the recipe; liquids first, then
the butter or margarine, next the dry ingredients and finally the yeast. For best
results level the dry ingredients before adding the yeast.
3. With the bread pan at a diagonal, insert it into the baking chamber. Be sure that
the bread pan is seated into the coupler at the bottom of the baking chamber
completely. Turn the bread pan clockwise to lock into position. To remove the
bread pan, turn the pan counter-clockwise and lift. CAUTION: The handle is hot
after baking. Use oven mitts or hot pads when removing a hot bread pan.
4. Close the lid. Plug the breadmaker cord into a 120 volt, AC electrical outlet
ONLY.
5. Use the "MENU" button to select the desired program menu. (see pg. 5)
6. Use the "LOAF SIZE" button to select the desired loaf size.
7. Use the "COLOR" button to select the desired crust darkness.
8. If desired, use the "TIME +" and "TIME -" buttons to set the elapsed time for when
the program is to be completed (see pg. 4).
9. Press the "START/STOP" button to begin the program. After the breadmaker has
been turned on, the programmed setting cannot be changed without canceling
the program. To change the setting, hold the "START/STOP" button down until
the alert sounds; program the control as desired and turn back on.
10. When the bread is done, an alert will sound. Turn the breadmaker off by holding
the "START/STOP" button down until the alert sounds. Unplug the cord from the
electrical outlet. If the breadmaker is not turned off after the cycle is complete, the
breadmaker will automatically go into a one hour "Keep Warm" period. If the
machine is not turned off after the end of the "Keep Warm" period, the machine
will turn itself off.
11. Remove the bread pan. CAUTION: The handle is hot after baking. Use oven
mitts or hot pads when removing a hot bread pan.
12. Invert the bread pan and shake gently until the loaf falls out. Place the bread on a
rack to cool 15 to 20 minutes. The knead blade will normally stay in the bread
pan when the bread is removed, but may on occasion slide out in the bread. If the
knead blade is inside the loaf, remove with the included hook before slicing.
CAUTION: The knead blade is very hot, remove with care. If making another loaf
of bread right away, be sure the machine is turned off, unplugged, and allowed to
cool for 15 to 20 minutes with the lid open.
High Altitude Adjustment: Reduced air pressure at high altitudes causes yeast
gases to expand more rapidly and the dough to rise more quickly. The dough can
rise so much that when it begins to bake, it will collapse due to overstretching of the
gluten structure. To slow the rising of the dough, reduce the amount of yeast by ¼
teaspoon at a time until you find the right amount. You can also reduce the amount
of liquid by a teaspoon or two. Some experimentation will be needed when using
your breadmaker at high altitudes.
