Using the Delay Timer
You can delay the time your breadmaker starts to have fresh bread
ready when you get up in the morning or when you come from work.
We recommend that before you use the Delay Timer, you try out a few
recipes. Use recipes that have produced good results for you in the past.
Important:
You cannot use the Delay Timer
for settings.
Before Using the Delay Timer:
1. Add al1 recipe ingredients to the bread pan.
2. Select the correct setting for the kind of bread you are making.
3. Select the crust color.
Caution:
Do not use recipes with ingredients that can spoil
like eggs or milk.
4. Determine how many hours and minutes there are between now
and when you want final, baked bread.
5. Use the “Timer Up” button to advance the time in 10 minute
increments. If necessary, use the “Timer Down” button to decrease
the time.
(To advance the time quickly, simply press and hold
down the “Timer Up/Down" buttons.)
Important:
If you make a mistake or wish to start over, press
and hold down the "Start/Stop" button until you
hear a beep. The display will show the original
setting and cycle time. The Delay Timer is canceled
and you can start again.
6. When the Delay Timer is set where you want it, make sure to
press the “Start/Stop” button. The colon ( : ) will flash and your
bread will be ready when you planned.
Important:
When using the Delay Timer during times of hot
weather, you may wish to reduce the liquid in your
recipe by 1 or 2 tablespoons. This is to prevent the
dough from rising too much. You may also reduce
the Salt by 1/8 or 1/4 teaspoon and try cutting the
amount of sugar you use by
teaspoon at a time.
