7. Since smoke can occur the first time the appliance
heats up, we recommend that you allow the breadma-
ker to run through the BACKPULVER program once
with an empty baking pan (without kneader) to remove
any residue on the heating elements.
8. Allow the appliance to cool for a while.
9. Afterwards you can start baking bread.
1. Prepare the appliance as described in the section
“Preparing the appliance for operation”.
2. Open the lid of the Backmeister
®
and remove the
baking pan.
3. Generously apply heat-resistant margarine to the hole
in the kneader to prevent the dough from baking on
here during baking.
4. Place the kneader on the drive shaft in the baking pan.
Make sure to place the kneader right side up; other-
wise the coating of the pan can be damaged.
5. Place the ingredients in the baking pan as stated in
the recipe. For optimal results when baking with heavy
dough, reverse the order of the ingredients, i.e. first
add the dry ingredients and then the liquid. When
using the timer function, however, make sure that the
yeast does not come into contact with the liquid too
early.
6. Place the baking pan in the appliance, turning it clock-
wise until it locks into place.
7. Close the lid of the Backmeister
®
.
8. If you wish to add further ingredients to the bread,
such as seeds or nuts, while the program is in pro-
gress, pull the dispenser tray out of the holder on the
back of the appliance. Put the desired ingredients into
the dispenser and push the tray back in. The appli-
ance will add these ingredients to the dough automati-
cally at the correct time during the program.
9. Plug the appliance into an electrical outlet.
10. Select the desired program with the “MENÜ” button.
Hold this button down until the desired program num-
ber (e.g. 1 for the basic program) appears on the dis-
play. Information on the individual programs can be
found starting on page 49. Bread made from a stan-
dard bread mix turn out well with the “Basic” pro-
gram.
11. Select the desired degree of browning with the “BRÄU-
NUNG” (Hell/Light – Mittel/Medium – Dunkel/Dark)
button. Please note that it is not possible to select the
degree of browning with all programs. For more infor-
mation, please see page 49.
12. Select the desired loaf size with the “STUFE” button.
Please note that it is not possible to select the loaf
size with all programs. For more information, please
see page 49.
13. Once you have selected all the desired settings, press
the START/STOP button. For safety reasons, there is a
slight time delay when you press this button.
14. When your bread has finished baking, the Backmeis-
ter
®
beeps several times to signal that the bread can
be removed. If you wish to remove the bread before
the end of the keep-warm time, press the START/STOP
button and hold it down until a tone sounds to signal
that the program has been interrupted.
15. Remove the baking pan carefully. To prevent burns,
please use suitable potholders. Turn the baking pan
upside down and allow the bread to slide out onto a
wire rack for cooling. If the bread does not come out
right away, turn the kneading mechanism on the bot-
tom of the pan back and forth until the bread comes
out. Be aware that the kneading mechanism could still
be hot. Here again you should use suitable potholders.
Never strike the baking pan against a table edge or
worktop. This could cause dents in the baking pan.
16. If the kneader remains in the bread, you can pull it out
with the included hook. Insert it at the bottom of the
warm loaf into the hole in the kneader and allow it to
catch on the bottom edge of the kneader, preferably
at the point where the blade of the kneader is located.
Now carefully pull the kneader out of the bread. As you
pull, you will see in which direction the blade of the
kneader is pointing so you can pull it out.
17. Afterwards, clean the baking pan as described on
page 51.
