Operation

General information

Caution: The operating lever locks down only when the plug is inserted.
Do not use slices which are too thick or too big, as they may become stuck in the toaster. The thickness of the slices to be toasted should not exceed 14 mm.
In case of problems or malfunctions during use, and before cleaning, always remove the plug from the wall socket.
To remove a slice caught in the slot, use a blunt wooden implement (e.g. a brush handle). Never touch the metal heating elements.

Before using for the first time

Clean the toaster thoroughly (see Cleaning and care).
Switch on the toaster without any bread inserted and go through at least five toasting cycles at the maximum temperature setting.
Allow the toaster to cool down between cycles.
When switching on the appliance for the first time, the toaster may emit a slight smell and a little smoke, which will disappear after a short while. For that reason, adequate ventilation should be ensured by opening windows or balcony doors.

Automatic switch-off
This appliance comes with an automatic switch-off feature. If a bread slice should become stuck and cannot be ejected after the toasting cycle is complete, the toaster will automatically switch off. Should this occur, disconnect the appliance from the mains and remove the bread slice as described in the section General information. Adjusting the degree of browning The desired degree of browning can be varied by turning the adjustable browning control knob.

Light: turn the control knob anti-clockwise.
Dark: turn the control knob clockwise.

In the case of sliced bread specifically intended for toasting, we recommend setting the browning control to position 4.

Operation

Insert the plug into the wall socket.
After adjusting the browning control, insert the bread into the toast slot and press the operating lever down.
The indicator light on the eject button ( ) comes on.
Once the desired degree of browning is reached, the toaster switches off automatically and the slices are ejected. The indicator light goes out.
To achieve regular browning when toasting several slices in succession, allow the toaster to cool down for 60 – 90 seconds after each cycle.
Do not cover the toast slot during operation.

Defrost function
The defrost function ( ) may be used in addition to the normal action when toasting deep-frozen bread. This will extend the toasting process. This function is shown by the indicator lamp.

Warm-up function
The warm-up function ( ) is suitable
for re-heating bread which has already been toasted. Caution: Do not warm up buttered bread.
After activating the toasting function, the warm-up function can be used in addition. This function is shown by the indicator lamp.

Interrupting the toasting cycle
If you want to interrupt the toasting cycle, press the eject button ( ). The toaster will switch off and the slices are ejected. The indicator light goes out.

Warming up rolls, buns etc.

To warm up buns, rolls or other bakery items, push the slide control operating lever for the warming top all the way down to raise the bread roll holder.
Place the items to be warmed up on the top, adjust the browning control to a medium setting and then push down the operating lever to switch on the toaster.
Once the browning cycle is complete and the appliance has automatically switched off, turn the roll or bread over and repeat the cycle.
After use, return the bread roll holder to its rest position by pushing the slide control back up.
Do not place the items directly on the toast slot.

Cleaning and care

Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is disconnected from the power supply and has cooled down completely.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the appliance with liquids or immerse it.
Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions.
The housing may be wiped with a dry or slightly damp lint-free cloth.

Crumb tray
During use, any bread crumbs falling down are collected in the crumb tray. To empty the tray, pull it out sideways. Make sure to replace the crumb tray before the toaster is used again.

Power cord storage
Unwind the power cord completely before operation and make sure it is kept well away from the appliance.
Allow for a sufficient cooling-down period before winding up the power cord after use.
