Well built machine calls for dry yeast in inner pot on side. Add all dry ingredients in order on top. Then add lukewarm water. Add egg, butter, vanilla extract. Press select button for sweet bread (if unit has one).
Press start button. When machine's beeper sounds 10 times at second kneading stage, add raisins and nuts. My machine takes 4 hours. Adjust your recipe accordingly.
