Features of your Maestro Toaster

Using your Maestro Toaster

Plug the toaster into a 230-240 volt AC power outlet and switch the power on.

Toasting Bread

1. Position the bread into the bread slot.

2. Select the desired browning setting using the Electronic Browning Control by pressing the buttons on the left hand side of the LED panel up and down.
   Note: If toasting 1 slice (in the TA6240 Maestro 2) or 2 slices (in the TA6440 Maestro 4) it is recommended that you use a lower browning setting to achieve your required result and to prevent burning.
   Important: Do not toast stale bread, rice crackers or similar on a high setting as there is a chance that they may catch fire.

3. Push the Toasting Lever down to commence the toasting cycle.

4. The LCD screen will show how long the toasting cycle will take and will count down in minutes and seconds until the toasting cycle has finished.

5. When the desired browning is achieved, the toaster will beep once and automatically stop toasting and pop the toast up.

6. If you need to remove the toast before the cycle is complete, press the Cancel button and the toast will pop up.

7. The QuickCheck feature enables you to check on the progress of your toast without interrupting the toasting cycle. Simply lift up the toasting lever to view the toast and then release when you have finished. if the toast is ready press the Cancel button.

8. To remove small pieces of toast, crumpets or bagels, use the High-lift Lever to lift the toast above the starting position. This will prevent burning your fingers as you remove the toast.
   Hot Surfaces
   Do Not Touch
   This symbol indicates that the temperature of accessible surfaces may be high when the appliance is operating and for some time after use.

Toaster Functions

• Cancel button
  The Cancel button immediately stops any of the toasting cycles. As a consequence of this, the toast will pop up. Pressing Cancel also puts the electronic browning setting back to default level 2.

• High-lift lever
  When toasting small pieces of bread, crumpets or muffins we recommend using the High-lift lever to prevent you from burning your fingers.

• QuickCheck
  The QuickCheck feature enables you to check on the progress of your toast without interrupting the toasting cycle. Simply lift up the toasting lever to view the toast and then release when you have finished. If the toast is ready press the Cancel button.

• Crumpet Feature
  The specialised crumpet setting cooks crumpets to perfection. When activated, additional heat is emitted from the centre elements to cook the top of your crumpet faster than the bottom. The top of the crumpet(s) must be facing towards the centre element. See figure 1.

• Defrost Feature
  The defrost feature can be used to toast your frozen bread. The colour of your toast will brown according to the toasting setting you have chosen. This feature is activated by pressing the frozen button on at any time for example, before or at the start of the toasting cycle.
  Note: When using the Crumpet and Frozen functions it is still very important to set the Electronic Browning Control to your desired setting.

• Reheat button
  The Reheat button can be selected after the toasting cycle has finished. Simply select the reheat button and press the toasting lever down to start the reheat cycle. If the Reheat button is selected in the first 30 seconds of the toasting cycle it will override the toasting cycle. If the toasting cycle has been running for over 30 seconds the Reheat button will cancel the toasting cycle after 5 seconds.

• Standby Mode
  If the toaster isn’t used for over 5 mins it will go into standby mode. It can be reactivated by pressing any button.

Toasting Tips

• Toasting is a combination of drying and cooking the bread, and because moisture levels differ from one bread to another, toasting times can vary.

• If your bread jams in the toaster, switch power off, remove the plug from the power outlet and ease the bread out of the toaster.

• Bread types

  • For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than normal.
  • For fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than normal.
  • When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins or fruit from the surface of the bread before putting it into your toaster. This will help prevent fruit pieces from falling into your toaster or sticking to the guard wires in the toasting slot.
  • Bread which has a very uneven surface will require a higher setting.

• Crumpets and thicker bread
  Thicker cut pieces of bread (including crumpets) will take longer to toast—sometimes significantly longer. This is because more moisture must be evaporated from the bread before toasting can occur. Very thick pieces of bread may require two toasting cycles.

• Muffins and Bagels
  Ensure muffins or bagels are cut into even halves and fit freely into the bread slot. Do not force them into the toaster

• Single slice toasting
  If toasting 1 slice it is recommended that you use a lower toaster setting to achieve your required browning and to prevent burning.
  WARNING: Never attempt to extract jammed toast, muffins, bagels or crumpets with a knife or any other metal object, as contact with the live element may cause electrocution.

Care and Cleaning

Always turn the power OFF and remove the plug from the power outlet after use and before cleaning your toaster.

• To clean the exterior
  Wipe exterior with a slightly dampened cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth.
  Do not use metal scourers or abrasives as this may scratch the exterior surface.

• Removable Crumb Tray
  To remove the crumbs, simply press to release and slide out the tray, empty and place it back in the toaster.
  Important: Clean the crumb tray regularly. Do not allow crumbs to accumulate, as they may cause a potential fire hazard.

• To clean the toaster interior
  Clean inside the toaster regularly. To do this, unplug the appliance, turn it upside down over the sink and gently shake all the crumbs out.
